New International Version - UK

‘May the God before whom my fathers
    Abraham and Isaac walked faithfully,
the God who has been my shepherd
    all my life to this day,
16 the Angel who has delivered me from all harm

May they be called by my name
    and the names of my fathers Abraham and Isaac,
and may they increase greatly
    on the earth.’
