摩西最後的祝福
33 以下是上帝的僕人摩西臨終時給以色列人的祝福：
2 「耶和華從西奈山來，
在西珥山向我們顯現，
祂從巴蘭山發出光輝；
祂帶著千萬聖者來臨，
祂右邊有閃耀的光芒。
3 祂愛自己的子民，
眾聖者都聽命於祂，
伏在祂的腳前，
領受祂的訓誨。
4 摩西將律法頒佈給我們，
作為雅各子孫的產業。
5 百姓的眾首領齊聚，
以色列各支派集合之時，
耶和華在耶書崙做王。」
6 摩西祝福呂便支派說：
「儘管呂便人數稀少，
願他存活，
不致滅沒。」
7 摩西祝福猶大支派說：
「耶和華啊，
求你聽猶大的呼求，
帶他們回歸本族，
幫他們對抗仇敵，
賜他們爭戰之力。」
8 摩西祝福利未支派說：
「耶和華啊，
求你把土明和烏陵賜給虔誠的利未人，
你曾經在瑪撒試驗他們，
在米利巴泉邊與他們爭論。
9 為了聽從你的話，遵守你的約，
他們不畏冒犯父母，
捨棄弟兄，拋下兒女。
10 他們把你的典章傳授給雅各，
把你的律法傳授給以色列；
他們要把香獻在你面前，
把全牲燔祭獻在你的壇上。
11 耶和華啊，
求你賜他們力量，
悅納他們的工作，
擊碎仇敵的腰桿，
使敵人一蹶不振。」
12 摩西祝福便雅憫支派說：
「耶和華所愛的人，
安居在祂身邊，
安居在祂懷中，
終日蒙祂庇護。」
13 摩西祝福約瑟家族說：
「願他們的土地蒙耶和華賜福，
得天上的甘霖，
及地下的泉源；
14 得日月之輝，物產豐美；
15 得古老群山之精華，
永存丘陵之富饒；
16 得大地的豐肥，
蒙荊棘火中之上帝的恩寵。
願這一切福氣都落在約瑟頭上，
臨到弟兄中的王者身上。
17 約瑟威武如頭生的公牛，
有野牛的角，
他用角牴萬邦，
直到地極。
他的兩角是數以萬計的以法蓮人和數以千計的瑪拿西人。」
18 摩西祝福西布倫和以薩迦支派說：
「願西布倫人欣然外出，
願以薩迦人在帳篷中歡喜。
19 他們要招聚眾人上山，
一同獻上公義的祭；
他們汲取海裡的財富和沙中的寶藏。」
20 摩西祝福迦得支派說：
「擴張迦得疆界的那位當受稱頌！
迦得蹲伏如獅子，
撕碎頭顱和臂膀。
21 他為自己選了最好的土地，
是留給首領的那份。
他們與眾首領同行，
施行耶和華的公義和祂給以色列的典章。」
22 摩西祝福但支派說：
「但像一隻從巴珊躍出的幼獅。」
23 摩西祝福拿弗他利支派說：
「拿弗他利人啊，
你們飽嚐耶和華的恩寵，
滿得祂的賜福，
擁有西方和南方的土地。」
24 摩西祝福亞設支派說：
「願亞設在眾子中最蒙福，
受眾弟兄的恩待，
雙腳沐浴橄欖油，
25 城門有銅鎖鐵閂，
一生都充滿力量。」
26 「耶書崙啊，
上帝無與倫比，
祂馳騁諸天，前來助你，
穿越長空，充滿威嚴。
27 亙古的上帝是你的庇護，
祂永恆的臂膀是你的依託。
祂趕走你面前的仇敵，
下令毀滅他們。
28 以色列安然居住，
雅各獨居一處，
那裡盛產五穀新酒，
有天上的雨露滋潤。
29 以色列啊，你多麼有福！
蒙耶和華拯救之人啊，誰能像你？
祂是你的盾牌，你得勝的寶劍。
敵人要向你屈服，被你踐踏。」
Deuteronomy 33
New King James Version
Moses’ Final Blessing on Israel
33 Now this is (A)the blessing with which Moses (B)the man of God blessed the children of Israel before his death. 2 And he said:
(C)“The Lord came from Sinai,
And dawned on them from (D)Seir;
He shone forth from (E)Mount Paran,
And He came with (F)ten thousands of saints;
From His right hand
Came a fiery law for them.
3 Yes, (G)He loves the people;
(H)All His saints are in Your hand;
They (I)sit down at Your feet;
Everyone (J)receives Your words.
4 (K)Moses [a]commanded a law for us,
(L)A heritage of the congregation of Jacob.
5 And He was (M)King in (N)Jeshurun,
When the leaders of the people were gathered,
All the tribes of Israel together.
6 “Let (O)Reuben live, and not die,
Nor let his men be few.”
7 And this he said of (P)Judah:
“Hear, Lord, the voice of Judah,
And bring him to his people;
(Q)Let his hands be sufficient for him,
And may You be (R)a help against his enemies.”
8 And of (S)Levi he said:
(T)“Let Your [b]Thummim and Your Urim be with Your holy one,
(U)Whom You tested at Massah,
And with whom You contended at the waters of Meribah,
9 (V)Who says of his father and mother,
‘I have not (W)seen them’;
(X)Nor did he acknowledge his brothers,
Or know his own children;
For (Y)they have observed Your word
And kept Your covenant.
10 (Z)They shall teach Jacob Your judgments,
And Israel Your law.
They shall put incense before You,
(AA)And a whole burnt sacrifice on Your altar.
11 Bless his substance, Lord,
And (AB)accept the work of his hands;
Strike the loins of those who rise against him,
And of those who hate him, that they rise not again.”
12 Of Benjamin he said:
“The beloved of the Lord shall dwell in safety by Him,
Who shelters him all the day long;
And he shall dwell between His shoulders.”
13 And of Joseph he said:
(AC)“Blessed of the Lord is his land,
With the precious things of heaven, with the (AD)dew,
And the deep lying beneath,
14 With the precious fruits of the sun,
With the precious produce of the months,
15 With the best things of (AE)the ancient mountains,
With the precious things (AF)of the everlasting hills,
16 With the precious things of the earth and its fullness,
And the favor of (AG)Him who dwelt in the bush.
Let the blessing come (AH)‘on the head of Joseph,
And on the crown of the head of him who was separate from his brothers.’
17 His glory is like a (AI)firstborn bull,
And his horns like the (AJ)horns of the wild ox;
Together with them
(AK)He shall push the peoples
To the ends of the earth;
(AL)They are the ten thousands of Ephraim,
And they are the thousands of Manasseh.”
18 And of Zebulun he said:
(AM)“Rejoice, Zebulun, in your going out,
And Issachar in your tents!
19 They shall (AN)call the peoples to the mountain;
There (AO)they shall offer sacrifices of righteousness;
For they shall partake of the abundance of the seas
And of treasures hidden in the sand.”
20 And of Gad he said:
“Blessed is he who (AP)enlarges Gad;
He dwells as a lion,
And tears the arm and the crown of his head.
21 (AQ)He provided the first part for himself,
Because a lawgiver’s portion was reserved there.
(AR)He came with the heads of the people;
He administered the justice of the Lord,
And His judgments with Israel.”
22 And of Dan he said:
“Dan is a lion’s whelp;
(AS)He shall leap from Bashan.”
23 And of Naphtali he said:
“O Naphtali, (AT)satisfied with favor,
And full of the blessing of the Lord,
(AU)Possess the west and the south.”
24 And of Asher he said:
(AV)“Asher is most blessed of sons;
Let him be favored by his brothers,
And let him (AW)dip his foot in oil.
25 Your sandals shall be (AX)iron and bronze;
As your days, so shall your strength be.
26 “There is (AY)no one like the God of (AZ)Jeshurun,
(BA)Who rides the heavens to help you,
And in His excellency on the clouds.
27 The eternal God is your (BB)refuge,
And underneath are the everlasting arms;
(BC)He will thrust out the enemy from before you,
And will say, ‘Destroy!’
28 Then (BD)Israel shall dwell in safety,
(BE)The fountain of Jacob (BF)alone,
In a land of grain and new wine;
His (BG)heavens shall also drop dew.
29 (BH)Happy are you, O Israel!
(BI)Who is like you, a people saved by the Lord,
(BJ)The shield of your help
And the sword of your majesty!
Your enemies (BK)shall submit to you,
And (BL)you shall tread down their [c]high places.”

Deuteronomy 33
King James Version
33 And this is the blessing, wherewith Moses the man of God blessed the children of Israel before his death.
2 And he said, The Lord came from Sinai, and rose up from Seir unto them; he shined forth from mount Paran, and he came with ten thousands of saints: from his right hand went a fiery law for them.
3 Yea, he loved the people; all his saints are in thy hand: and they sat down at thy feet; every one shall receive of thy words.
4 Moses commanded us a law, even the inheritance of the congregation of Jacob.
5 And he was king in Jeshurun, when the heads of the people and the tribes of Israel were gathered together.
6 Let Reuben live, and not die; and let not his men be few.
7 And this is the blessing of Judah: and he said, Hear, Lord, the voice of Judah, and bring him unto his people: let his hands be sufficient for him; and be thou an help to him from his enemies.
8 And of Levi he said, Let thy Thummim and thy Urim be with thy holy one, whom thou didst prove at Massah, and with whom thou didst strive at the waters of Meribah;
9 Who said unto his father and to his mother, I have not seen him; neither did he acknowledge his brethren, nor knew his own children: for they have observed thy word, and kept thy covenant.
10 They shall teach Jacob thy judgments, and Israel thy law: they shall put incense before thee, and whole burnt sacrifice upon thine altar.
11 Bless, Lord, his substance, and accept the work of his hands; smite through the loins of them that rise against him, and of them that hate him, that they rise not again.
12 And of Benjamin he said, The beloved of the Lord shall dwell in safety by him; and the Lord shall cover him all the day long, and he shall dwell between his shoulders.
13 And of Joseph he said, Blessed of the Lord be his land, for the precious things of heaven, for the dew, and for the deep that coucheth beneath,
14 And for the precious fruits brought forth by the sun, and for the precious things put forth by the moon,
15 And for the chief things of the ancient mountains, and for the precious things of the lasting hills,
16 And for the precious things of the earth and fulness thereof, and for the good will of him that dwelt in the bush: let the blessing come upon the head of Joseph, and upon the top of the head of him that was separated from his brethren.
17 His glory is like the firstling of his bullock, and his horns are like the horns of unicorns: with them he shall push the people together to the ends of the earth: and they are the ten thousands of Ephraim, and they are the thousands of Manasseh.
18 And of Zebulun he said, Rejoice, Zebulun, in thy going out; and, Issachar, in thy tents.
19 They shall call the people unto the mountain; there they shall offer sacrifices of righteousness: for they shall suck of the abundance of the seas, and of treasures hid in the sand.
20 And of Gad he said, Blessed be he that enlargeth Gad: he dwelleth as a lion, and teareth the arm with the crown of the head.
21 And he provided the first part for himself, because there, in a portion of the lawgiver, was he seated; and he came with the heads of the people, he executed the justice of the Lord, and his judgments with Israel.
22 And of Dan he said, Dan is a lion's whelp: he shall leap from Bashan.
23 And of Naphtali he said, O Naphtali, satisfied with favour, and full with the blessing of the Lord: possess thou the west and the south.
24 And of Asher he said, Let Asher be blessed with children; let him be acceptable to his brethren, and let him dip his foot in oil.
25 Thy shoes shall be iron and brass; and as thy days, so shall thy strength be.
26 There is none like unto the God of Jeshurun, who rideth upon the heaven in thy help, and in his excellency on the sky.
27 The eternal God is thy refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms: and he shall thrust out the enemy from before thee; and shall say, Destroy them.
28 Israel then shall dwell in safety alone: the fountain of Jacob shall be upon a land of corn and wine; also his heavens shall drop down dew.
29 Happy art thou, O Israel: who is like unto thee, O people saved by the Lord, the shield of thy help, and who is the sword of thy excellency! and thine enemies shall be found liars unto thee; and thou shalt tread upon their high places.
