Genesis 49:23
Compare all
21 “Naphtalia is a deer let loose;
He uses beautiful words. 
22 “Joseph is a fruitful bough,
A fruitful bough by a well;
His branches run over the wall.
23 The archers have abitterly grieved him,
Shot at him and hated him. 
24 But his abow remained in strength,
And the arms of his hands were1 made strong
By the hands of bthe Mighty God of Jacob
c(From there dis the Shepherd, ethe Stone of Israel), 
25 aBy the God of your father who will help you,
bAnd by the Almighty cwho will bless you
With blessings of heaven above,
Blessings of the deep that lies beneath,
Blessings of the breasts and of the womb. 
26 The blessings of your father
Have excelled the blessings of my ancestors,
aUp to the utmost bound of the everlasting hills.
bThey shall be on the head of Joseph,
And on the crown of the head of him who was separate from his brothers.
