“Blessed is the one who enlarges Gad;
He lurks like a lioness,
And tears the arm and the crown of the head.

For there the leader’s portion was reserved;
Yet he came with the leaders of the people;
He carried out the justice (righteous will) of the Lord,
And His ordinances (judgments) with Israel.”(A)

That leaps forth from Bashan.”

    and his judgments concerning Israel.”
