Deuteronomy 33

1 This is the blessing that Moses the man of God pronounced upon the Israelites before his death.

1 以下是上帝的仆人摩西临终时给以色列人的祝福：

2 He said: “The LORD came from Sinai and dawned upon us from Seir; He shone forth from Mount Paran and came with myriads of holy ones, with flaming fire at His right hand.

2 “耶和华从西奈山来， 从西珥山向我们显现， 祂从巴兰山发出光辉； 祂带着千万圣者来临， 祂右边有闪耀的光芒。

3 Surely You love the people; all the holy ones are in Your hand, and they sit down at Your feet; each receives Your words—

3 祂深爱自己的子民， 众圣者都听命于祂， 伏在祂的脚前， 领受祂的训诲。

4 the law that Moses gave us, the possession of the assembly of Jacob.

4 摩西将律法颁布给我们， 作为雅各子孙的产业。

5 So the LORD became King in Jeshurun when the leaders of the people gathered, when the tribes of Israel came together.

5 百姓的众首领齐聚， 以色列各支派集合之时， 耶和华在耶书仑做王。”

6 Let Reuben live and not die, nor his men be few.”

6 摩西祝福吕便支派说： “尽管吕便人数稀少， 愿他存活，不致灭没。”

7 And concerning Judah he said: “O LORD, hear the cry of Judah and bring him to his people. With his own hands he defends his cause, but may You be a help against his foes.”

7 摩西祝福犹大支派说： “耶和华啊， 求你听犹大人的呼求， 带他们回归本族， 出手为他们争战， 帮他们对抗仇敌。”

8 Concerning Levi he said: “Give Your Thummim to Levi and Your Urim to Your godly one, whom You tested at Massah and contested at the waters of Meribah.

8 摩西祝福利未支派说： “耶和华啊， 求你把土明和乌陵赐给虔诚的利未人， 你曾经在玛撒试验他们， 在米利巴泉边与他们争论。

9 He said of his father and mother, ‘I do not consider them.’ He disregarded his brothers and did not know his own sons, for he kept Your word and maintained Your covenant.

9 为了听从你的话，遵守你的约， 他们不顾父母， 舍弃弟兄，抛下儿女。

10 He will teach Your ordinances to Jacob and Your law to Israel; he will set incense before You and whole burnt offerings on Your altar.

10 他们把你的典章传授给雅各， 把你的律法传授给以色列； 他们要把香献在你面前， 把全牲燔祭献在你的坛上。

11 Bless his substance, O LORD, and accept the work of his hands. Smash the loins of those who rise against him, and of his foes so they can rise no more.”

11 耶和华啊， 求你赐他们力量， 悦纳他们的工作， 击碎仇敌的腰杆， 使敌人一蹶不振。”

12 Concerning Benjamin he said: “May the beloved of the LORD rest secure in Him; God shields him all day long, and upon His shoulders he rests.”

12 摩西祝福便雅悯支派说： “耶和华所爱的人， 安居在祂身边， 安居在祂怀中， 终日蒙祂庇护。”

13 Concerning Joseph he said: “May his land be blessed by the LORD with the precious dew from heaven above and the deep waters that lie beneath,

13 摩西祝福约瑟家族说： “愿他们的土地蒙耶和华赐福， 得天上的甘霖， 及地下的泉源；

14 with the bountiful harvest from the sun and the abundant yield of the seasons,

14 得日月之辉，物产丰美；

15 with the best of the ancient mountains and the bounty of the everlasting hills,

15 得古老群山之精华， 永存丘陵之富饶；

16 with the choice gifts of the land and everything in it, and with the favor of Him who dwelt in the burning bush. May these rest on the head of Joseph and crown the brow of the prince of his brothers.

16 得大地的丰肥， 蒙荆棘火中之上帝的恩宠。 愿这些福气落在约瑟头上， 临到弟兄中的王者身上。

17 His majesty is like a firstborn bull, and his horns are like those of a wild ox. With them he will gore the nations, even to the ends of the earth. Such are the myriads of Ephraim, and such are the thousands of Manasseh.”

17 约瑟威武如头生的公牛， 有野牛的角， 他用角抵万邦， 直到地极。 他的两角是数以万计的以法莲人和数以千计的玛拿西人。”

18 Concerning Zebulun he said: “Rejoice, Zebulun, in your journeys, and Issachar, in your tents.

18 摩西祝福西布伦和以萨迦支派说： “愿西布伦人欣然外出， 愿以萨迦人在帐篷中欢喜。

19 They will call the peoples to a mountain; there they will offer sacrifices of righteousness. For they will feast on the abundance of the seas and the hidden treasures of the sand.”

19 他们要招聚众人上山， 一同献上公义的祭； 他们汲取海里的财富和沙中的宝藏。”

20 Concerning Gad he said: “Blessed is he who enlarges the domain of Gad! He lies down like a lion and tears off an arm or a head.

20 摩西祝福迦得支派说： “扩张迦得疆界的那位当受称颂！ 迦得蹲伏如母狮， 撕碎头颅和臂膀。

21 He chose the best land for himself, because a ruler’s portion was reserved for him there. He came with the leaders of the people; he administered the LORD’s justice and His ordinances for Israel.”

21 他为自己选了最好的土地， 是留给首领的那份。 他与众首领同行， 施行耶和华的公义和祂给以色列的典章。”

22 Concerning Dan he said: “Dan is a lion’s cub, leaping out of Bashan.”

22 摩西祝福但支派说： “但像一只从巴珊跃出的幼狮。”

23 Concerning Naphtali he said: “Naphtali is abounding with favor, full of the blessing of the LORD; he shall take possession of the sea and the south.”

23 摩西祝福拿弗他利支派说： “拿弗他利人啊， 你们饱尝耶和华的恩宠， 满得祂的赐福， 拥有西方和南方的土地。”

24 And concerning Asher he said: “May Asher be the most blessed of sons; may he be the most favored among his brothers and dip his foot in oil.

24 摩西祝福亚设支派说： “愿亚设在众子中最蒙福， 受众弟兄的恩待， 双脚沐浴橄榄油，

25 May the bolts of your gate be iron and bronze, and may your strength match your days.”

25 城门有铜锁铁闩， 一生都充满力量。

26 “There is none like the God of Jeshurun, who rides the heavens to your aid, and the clouds in His majesty.

26 “耶书仑啊， 上帝独一无二， 祂驰骋诸天，前来助你， 穿越长空，充满威严。

27 The eternal God is your dwelling place, and underneath are the everlasting arms. He drives out the enemy before you, giving the command, ‘Destroy him!’

27 亘古的上帝是你的庇护， 祂永恒的臂膀是你的依托。 祂赶走你面前的仇敌， 下令毁灭他们。

28 So Israel dwells securely; the fountain of Jacob lives untroubled in a land of grain and new wine, where even the heavens drip with dew.

28 以色列安然居住， 雅各独居一处， 那里盛产五谷新酒， 有天上的雨露滋润。

29 Blessed are you, O Israel! Who is like you, a people saved by the LORD? He is the shield that protects you, the sword in which you boast. Your enemies will cower before you, and you shall trample their high places.”

29 以色列啊，你多么有福！ 蒙耶和华拯救之人啊，谁能像你？ 祂是你的盾牌，你得胜的宝剑。 敌人要向你屈服，被你践踏。”
