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 sons 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 says: “YHWH has come from Sinai, And has risen from Seir for them; He has shone from Mount Paran, And has come [with] myriads of holy ones; At His right hand [came] a fiery law [[or a flaming fire]] for them.
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。
Indeed, He [is] loving the peoples; All His holy ones [are] in Your hand, And they sat down at Your foot, [Each] lifts up Your words.
4 摩西将律法传给我们， 作为雅各会众的产业。
Moses has commanded a law for us, A possession of the assembly of Jacob.
5 百姓的众首领， 以色列的各支派， 一同聚会的时候， 耶和华在耶书 中为王。
And He is King in Yeshurun, In the heads of the people gathering together, The tribes of Israel!
6 愿吕便存活，不致死亡； 愿他人数不致稀少。
Let Reuben live, and not die, And let his men be an [incalculable] 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] for Judah, and he says: Hear, O YHWH, the voice of Judah, And You bring him in to his people; His hand has striven for him, And You are a help from his adversaries.
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 of Levi he said: Your Perfections and your Lights [are] for your pious one, Whom You have tried in Massah, You strive with him at the waters of Meribah;
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 is saying of his father and his mother, I have not seen him; And he has not discerned his brothers, And he has not known his sons; For they have observed Your saying, And they keep 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 teach Your judgments to Jacob, And Your law to Israel; They put incense in Your nose, And whole burnt-offering on 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, O YHWH, his strength, And accept the work of his hands, Strike the loins of his withstanders, And of those hating him—that they do not rise!
12 论便雅悯说： 耶和华所亲爱的必同耶和华安然居住； 耶和华终日遮蔽他，也住在他两肩之中。
Of Benjamin he said: The beloved of YHWH dwells confidently by Him, Covering him over every day; Indeed, he dwells between His shoulders.
13 论约瑟说： 愿他的地蒙耶和华赐福， 得天上的宝物、甘露， 以及地里所藏的泉水；
And of Joseph he said: His land [is] blessed [by] YHWH, By a precious thing of the heavens, By dew, and by the deep crouching beneath,
14 得太阳所晒熟的美果， 月亮所养成的宝物；
And by a precious thing—fruits of the sun, And by a precious thing—cast forth by the months,
15 得上古之山的至宝， 永世之岭的宝物；
And by a chief thing—of the ancient mountains, And by a precious thing—of the continuous heights,
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 by a precious thing—of earth and its fullness, And the good pleasure of Him who is dwelling in the bush; Let it come for the head of Joseph, And for the crown of him [who is] separate from his brothers.
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 splendor [is] a firstling of his ox, And his horns [are] horns of a wild ox; With them he pushes the peoples Altogether to the ends of the earth; And they [are] the myriads of Ephraim, And they [are] the thousands of Manasseh.
18 论西布伦说： 西布伦哪，你出外可以欢喜。 以萨迦啊，在你帐棚里可以快乐。
And of Zebulun he said: Rejoice, O Zebulun, in your going out, And, O Issachar, in your tents;
19 他们要将列邦召到山上， 在那里献公义的祭； 因为他们要吸取海里的丰富， 并沙中所藏的珍宝。
They call peoples [to] the mountain, There they sacrifice righteous sacrifices; For they suck up the abundance of the seas, And hidden things hidden in the sand.
20 论迦得说： 使迦得扩张的应当称颂！ 迦得住如母狮； 他撕裂膀臂，连头顶也撕裂。
And of Gad he said: Blessed is he who is enlarging Gad, He dwells as a lioness, And has torn the arm—also the crown!
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 he provides the first part for himself, For there the portion of the lawgiver is covered, And he comes [with] the heads of the people; He has done the righteousness of YHWH, And His judgments with Israel.
22 论但说： 但为小狮子， 从巴珊跳出来。
And of Dan he said: Dan [is] a lion’s whelp; He leaps from Bashan.
23 论拿弗他利说： 拿弗他利啊，你足沾恩惠， 满得耶和华的福， 可以得西方和南方为业。
And of Naphtali he said: O Naphtali, satisfied with pleasure, And full of the blessing of YHWH, Possess [the] west and [the] south.
24 论亚设说： 愿亚设享受多子的福乐， 得他弟兄的喜悦， 可以把脚蘸在油中。
And of Asher he said: Asher [is] blessed with sons, Let him be accepted by his brothers, And dipping his foot in oil.
25 你的门闩是铜的，铁的。 你的日子如何，你的力量也必如何。
Iron and bronze [are] your shoes, And as your days—your strength.
26 耶书 哪，没有能比 神的。 他为帮助你，乘在天空， 显其威荣，驾行穹苍。
[There is] none like the God of Yeshurun, Riding the heavens to your help, And in His excellence the skies.
27 永生的 神是你的居所； 他永久的膀臂在你以下。 他在你前面撵出仇敌， 说：毁灭吧。
The eternal God [is] a habitation, And beneath [are] continuous arms. And He casts out the enemy from your presence and says, Destroy!
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 dwells [in] confidence alone; The eye of Jacob [is] to a land of grain and wine; Also His heavens drop down dew.
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。
O your blessedness, O Israel! Who is like you? A people saved by YHWH, The shield of your help, And He who [is] the sword of your excellence! And your enemies are subdued for you, And you tread on their high places.”
