God blessed

the children of Israel before his death.

DE-33:2  And he said, The LORD came from Sinai, and rose up from 
Seir unto

them; he shined forth from mount Paran, and he came with ten 
thousands of

saints: from his right hand [went] a fiery law for them.

DE-33:3  Yea, he loved the people; all his saints [are] in thy 
hand: and they

sat down at thy feet; [every one] shall receive of thy words.

[be] with thy

holy one, whom thou didst prove at Massah, [and with] whom thou

DE-33:9  Who said unto his father and to his mother, I have not 
seen him;

neither did he acknowledge his brethren, nor knew his own 
children: for they

have observed thy word, and kept thy covenant.

law: they shall

put incense before thee, and whole burnt sacrifice upon thine 
altar.

 and for the

precious things put forth by the moon,

DE-33:15  And for the chief things of the ancient mountains, and 
for the

precious things of the lasting hills,

DE-33:16  And for the precious things of the earth and fulness 
thereof, and

blessing] come

upon the head of Joseph, and upon the top of the head of him 
[that was]

separated from his brethren.

DE-33:17  His glory [is like] the firstling of his bullock, and

children; let

[so shall] thy

strength [be].

DE-33:26  [There is] none like unto the God of Jeshurun, [who] 
rideth upon the

heaven in thy help, and in his excellency on the sky.

DE-33:27  The eternal God [is thy] refuge, and underneath [are] 
the

everlasting arms: and he shall thrust out the enemy from before 
thee; and

shall say, Destroy [them].

DE-33:28  Israel then shall dwell in safety alone: the fountain 
of Jacob

[shall be] upon a land of corn and wine; also his heavens shall 
drop down dew.



DE-33:29  Happy [art] thou, O Israel: who [is] like unto thee, O 
people saved

by the LORD, the shield of thy help, and who [is] the sword of 
thy excellency!

and thine enemies shall be found liars unto thee; and thou shalt 
tread upon

their high places.
