Deuteronomy 33:13-17
New International Version
13 About Joseph(A) he said:
“May the Lord bless his land
with the precious dew from heaven above
and with the deep waters that lie below;(B)
14 with the best the sun brings forth
and the finest the moon can yield;
15 with the choicest gifts of the ancient mountains(C)
and the fruitfulness of the everlasting hills;
16 with the best gifts of the earth and its fullness
and the favor of him who dwelt in the burning bush.(D)
Let all these rest on the head of Joseph,
on the brow of the prince among[a] his brothers.(E)
17 In majesty he is like a firstborn bull;
his horns(F) are the horns of a wild ox.(G)
With them he will gore(H) the nations,
even those at the ends of the earth.
Such are the ten thousands of Ephraim;(I)
such are the thousands of Manasseh.(J)”

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.
