申命记 33
1 以下是神人摩西在未死之先为以色列人所祝的福：
And this [is] the blessing with which Moses the man of God blessed the children of Israel before his death.
2 他说：耶和华从西奈而来， 从西珥向他们显现， 从巴兰山发出光辉， 从万万圣者中来临， 从他右手为百姓传出烈火的律法。
And he said, The Lord is come from Sina, and has appeared from Seir to us, and has hasted out of the mount of Pharan, with the ten thousands of Cades; on his right hand [were] his angels with him.
3 他疼爱百姓； 众圣徒都在他手中。 他们坐在他的脚下， 领受他的言语。
And he spared his people, and all his sanctified ones [are] under your hands; and they are under you; and he received of his words
4 摩西将律法传给我们， 作为雅各会众的产业。
the law which Moses charged us, an inheritance to the assemblies of Jacob.

And he shall be prince with the beloved one, when the princes of the people are gathered together with the tribes of Israel.
6 愿吕便存活，不致死亡； 愿他人数不致稀少。
Let Ruben live, and not die; and let him be many in number.
7 为犹大祝福说： 求耶和华俯听犹大的声音， 引导他归于本族； 他曾用手为自己争战， 你必帮助他攻击敌人。
And this [is the blessing] of Juda; Hear, Lord, the voice of Juda, and do you visit his people: his hands shall contend for him, and you shall be a help from his enemies.
8 论利未说： 耶和华啊，你的土明和乌陵 都在你的虔诚人那里。 你在玛撒曾试验他， 在米利巴水与他争论。
And to Levi he said, Give to Levi his manifestations, and his truth to the holy man, whom they tempted in the temptation; they reviled him at the water of strife.
9 他论自己的父母说： 我未曾看见； 他也不承认弟兄， 也不认识自己的儿女。 这是因利未人遵行你的话， 谨守你的约。
Who says to his father and mother, I have not seen you; and he knew not his brethren, and he refused to know his sons: he kept your oracles, and observed your covenant.
10 他们要将你的典章教训雅各， 将你的律法教训以色列。 他们要把香焚在你面前， 把全牲的燔祭献在你的坛上。
They shall declare your ordinances to Jacob, and your law to Israel: they shall place incense in [the time of] your wrath continually upon your altar.
11 求耶和华降福在他的财物上， 悦纳他手里所办的事。 那些起来攻击他和恨恶他的人， 愿你刺透他们的腰， 使他们不得再起来。
Bless, Lord, his strength, and accept the works of his hands; break the loins of his enemies that have risen up against him, and let not them that hate him rise up.

And to Joseph he said, His land [is] of the blessing of the Lord, of the seasons of sky and dew, and of the deeps of wells below,
14 得太阳所晒熟的美果， 月亮所养成的宝物；
and of the fruits of the changes of the sun in season, and of the produce of the months,
15 得上古之山的至宝， 永世之岭的宝物；
from the top of the ancient mountains, and from the top of the everlasting hills,
16 得地和其中所充满的宝物， 并住荆棘中上主的喜悦。 愿这些福都归于约瑟的头上， 归于那与弟兄迥别之人的顶上。
and of the fullness of the land in season: and let the things pleasing to him that lived in the bush come on the head of Joseph, and on the crown [of him who was] glorified above his brethren.
17 他为牛群中头生的，有威严； 他的角是野牛的角， 用以抵触万邦，直到地极。 这角是以法莲的万万， 玛拿西的千千。
His beauty [is as] the firstling of his bull, his horns [are] the horns of a unicorn; with them he shall thrust the nations at once, even from the end of the earth: these [are] the ten thousands of Ephraim, and these [are] the thousands of Manasse.

And to Gad he said, Blessed [be] he that enlarges Gad: as a lion he rested, having broken the arm and the ruler.
21 他为自己选择头一段地， 因在那里有设立律法者的分存留。 他与百姓的首领同来； 他施行耶和华的公义 和耶和华与以色列所立的典章。

And the rule of God shall protect you, and [that] under the strength of the everlasting arms; and he shall cast forth the enemy from before your face, saying, Perish.
28 以色列安然居住； 雅各的本源独居五谷新酒之地。 他的天也滴甘露。
And Israel shall dwell in confidence alone on the land of Jacob, with corn and wine; and the sky [shall be] misty with dew upon you.
29 以色列啊，你是有福的！ 谁像你这蒙耶和华所拯救的百姓呢？ 他是你的盾牌，帮助你， 是你威荣的刀剑。 你的仇敌必投降你； 你必踏在他们的高处。
Blessed [are] you, O Israel; who [is] like to you, O people saved by the Lord? your helper shall hold his shield over you, and [his] sword [is] your boast; and your enemies shall speak falsely to you, and you shall tread upon their neck.
