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 Life Version
Moses’ Last Words to Israel
33 Moses the man of God prayed before his death that good would come to the people of Israel. 2 He said, “The Lord came from Sinai. He came upon us from Seir. He shined from Mount Paran. He came among 10,000 holy ones. He came with fire at His right hand. 3 Yes, He loves His people. All Your holy ones are in Your hand. They followed in Your steps. They receive Your Word. 4 Moses gave us the Law, which belongs to the people of Jacob. 5 The Lord was King in Jeshurun, when the leaders of the people were gathered, all the families of Israel together.
6 “May Reuben live and not die. Do not let his men be few.”
7 About Judah he said, “O Lord, hear the voice of Judah, and bring him to his people. He fought for them with his hands. Give him help against those who fight against him.”
8 About Levi he said, “Let Your Thummim and Your Urim belong to Your man of God. You proved him at Massah, and at the waters of Meribah. 9 He said of his father and mother, ‘I do not think of them.’ He kept himself apart from his brothers, and his own children. Yes, they obeyed Your Word and kept Your agreement. 10 They will teach Your Laws to Jacob. They will teach Your Laws to Israel. They will put special perfume before You, and whole burnt gifts on Your altar. 11 O Lord, give him good things. Receive the work of his hands. Crush those who go against him and those who hate him, so they may not get up again.”
12 About Benjamin he said, “May the one the Lord loves live by Him and be safe. The Lord covers him all the day long. And he lives between His shoulders.”
13 About Joseph he said, “May the Lord bring good to his land, with the best gifts from heaven above, with water on the grass in the early morning, and from the deep waters below, 14 with the best things from the sun, and the best foods of the months. 15 May the Lord bring good to his land with the best things of the old mountains, and the best things of the hills that last forever, 16 with the best things of the earth and all that is in it, and the favor of Him Who lived in the bush. Let these gifts come upon the head of Joseph, upon the crown of the head of the one who is ruler among his brothers. 17 His great power is like the first-born of his bull. His horns are like the horns of the wild bull. With them he will push all the nations to the ends of the earth. They are the ten thousands of Ephraim, and the thousands of Manasseh.”
18 About Zebulun he said, “Be full of joy, Zebulun, in your going out. Be full of joy, Issachar, in your tents. 19 They will call the people to the mountain. There they will give gifts that are right with God. For they will take out the riches of the seas and the hidden riches of the sand.”
20 About Gad he said, “Happy is the one who gives much land to Gad! He lies down like a lion, and tears the arm and the crown of the head. 21 He chose the best part for himself, for that was the ruler’s share. He came with the leaders of the people. He did what the Lord wanted him to do. And he obeyed His Law with Israel.”
22 About Dan he said, “Dan is a young lion, that jumps out from Bashan.”
23 About Naphtali he said, “O Naphtali, filled with favor, and full of the good things of the Lord, take the sea and the south for your own.”
24 About Asher he said, “May Asher be given more than the other sons. May he be favored by his brothers. Let him put his foot in oil. 25 Your locks will be iron and brass. And your strength will last like your days.
26 “There is none like the God of Jeshurun. He comes through the heavens to help you, through the sky in His great power. 27 The God Who lives forever is your safe place. His arms are always under you. He drove away from in front of you those who hate you, and said, ‘Destroy!’ 28 So Israel lives in a safe place, the well of Jacob is safe, in a land of grain and new wine. Rain falls from His heavens. 29 Happy are you, O Israel! Who is like you, a nation saved by the Lord! He is the battle-covering Who helps you. He is the sword of your great power. So those who hate you will be afraid in front of you. And you will walk upon their high places.”
