But his bow abode in strength, and the arms of his hands were made strong by the hands of the mighty [God] of Jacob; (from thence [is] the shepherd, the stone of Israel: )

[Even] by the God of thy father, who shall help thee; and by the Almighty, who shall bless thee with blessings of heaven above, blessings of the deep that lieth under, blessings of the breasts, and of the womb:
26 Albarkun mahaifi suna da girma fiye da albarkun daɗaɗɗun duwatsu fiye da yalwar madawwaman tuddai. Bari dukan waɗannan su zauna a kan Yusuf, a goshin ɗan sarki a cikin’yan’uwansa.
