ヱホバ、シナイより來りセイルより彼らにむかひて昇りバランの山より光明を發ちて出で千萬の聖者の中間よりして格りたまへりその右の手には輝やける火ありき

9 who said of his father, and of his mother, 'I have not seen him;' Neither did he acknowledge his brothers, Nor did he know his own children: For they have observed your word, and keep your covenant.
彼はその父またはその母につきて言り我はこれを見ずと又彼は自己の兄弟を認ずまた自己の子等を顧みざりき是はなんぢの言に遵がひ汝の契約を守りてなり
10 They shall teach Jacob your ordinances, and Israel your law. They shall put incense before you, and whole burnt offering on your altar.

15 with the finest produce of the ancient mountains, and the abundance of the everlasting hills,
古山の嶺の寶物老嶽の寶物
16 with the choice things of the earth and its fullness, the good will of him who lived in the bush. Let this come on the head of Joseph, on the crown of the head of him who was separate from his brothers.
