In 29 verses, Moses pronounces a blessing over each tribe of Israel by name, his last recorded act before his death, closing with the LORD as Israel’s eternal dwelling place and shield.
Full sung version coming soon.
Lyrics
This is the blessing with which Moses The man of God blessed the children of Israel Before his death
The LORD came from Sinai and rose from Seir He shone from Mount Paran He came from the ten thousands of holy ones At his right hand was a fiery law for them
He loves the people All his saints are in your hand They sat down at your feet Each receives your words
Moses commanded us a law An inheritance for the assembly of Jacob
He was king in Jeshurun When the heads of the people were gathered All the tribes of Israel together Blessed is he who makes Israel whole
Let Reuben live and not die Nor let his men be few This is for Judah hear LORD The voice of Judah bring him in to his people
About Levi he said your Thummim and your Urim Are with your godly one whom you proved at Massah With whom you contended at the waters of Meribah About Benjamin he said the beloved of the LORD Will dwell in safety by him
About Joseph he said his land is blessed by the LORD For the precious things of the heavens for the dew For the deep that couches beneath For the precious things of the earth and its fullness
The LORD is with him His strength is nigh him His enemies shall be found liars And he shall tread upon their high places
Happy are you O Israel Who is like unto you a people saved By the LORD the shield of your help And that is the sword of your excellency
