13 And of Joseph he said:

(A)“Blessed of the Lord is his land,
With the precious things of heaven, with the (B)dew,
And the deep lying beneath,
14 With the precious fruits of the sun,
With the precious produce of the months,
15 With the best things of (C)the ancient mountains,
With the precious things (D)of the everlasting hills,
16 With the precious things of the earth and its fullness,
And the favor of (E)Him who dwelt in the bush.
Let the blessing come (F)‘on the head of Joseph,
And on the crown of the head of him who was separate from his brothers.’
17 His glory is like a (G)firstborn bull,
And his horns like the (H)horns of the wild ox;
Together with them
(I)He shall push the peoples
To the ends of the earth;
(J)They are the ten thousands of Ephraim,
And they are the thousands of Manasseh.”

13 About Joseph(A) he said:

“May the Lord bless his land
    with the precious dew from heaven above
    and with the deep waters that lie below;(B)
14 with the best the sun brings forth
    and the finest the moon can yield;
15 with the choicest gifts of the ancient mountains(C)
    and the fruitfulness of the everlasting hills;
16 with the best gifts of the earth and its fullness
    and the favor of him who dwelt in the burning bush.(D)
Let all these rest on the head of Joseph,
    on the brow of the prince among[a] his brothers.(E)
17 In majesty he is like a firstborn bull;
    his horns(F) are the horns of a wild ox.(G)
With them he will gore(H) the nations,
    even those at the ends of the earth.
Such are the ten thousands of Ephraim;(I)
    such are the thousands of Manasseh.(J)
