Deuteronomy 33:1-12

Deuteronomy 33:1-12 NLT

This is the blessing that Moses, the man of God, gave to the people of Israel before his death: “The LORD came from Mount Sinai and dawned upon us from Mount Seir; he shone forth from Mount Paran and came from Meribah-kadesh with flaming fire at his right hand. Indeed, he loves his people; all his holy ones are in his hands. They follow in his steps and accept his teaching. Moses gave us the LORD’s instruction, the special possession of the people of Israel. The LORD became king in Israel— when the leaders of the people assembled, when the tribes of Israel gathered as one.” Moses said this about the tribe of Reuben: “Let the tribe of Reuben live and not die out, though they are few in number.” Moses said this about the tribe of Judah: “O LORD, hear the cry of Judah and bring them together as a people. Give them strength to defend their cause; help them against their enemies!” Moses said this about the tribe of Levi: “O LORD, you have given your Thummim and Urim—the sacred lots— to your faithful servants the Levites. You put them to the test at Massah and struggled with them at the waters of Meribah. The Levites obeyed your word and guarded your covenant. They were more loyal to you than to their own parents. They ignored their relatives and did not acknowledge their own children. They teach your regulations to Jacob; they give your instructions to Israel. They present incense before you and offer whole burnt offerings on the altar. Bless the ministry of the Levites, O LORD, and accept all the work of their hands. Hit their enemies where it hurts the most; strike down their foes so they never rise again.” Moses said this about the tribe of Benjamin
