Deuteronomy 33:16
New English Translation

16 with the harvest of the earth and its fullness
and the pleasure of him who resided in the burning bush.[a]
May blessing rest on Joseph’s head,
and on the top of the head of the one set apart[b] from his brothers.

Footnotes

  1. Deuteronomy 33:16 tn The expression “him who resided in the bush” is frequently understood as a reference to the appearance of the Lord to Moses at Sinai from a burning bush (so NIV, NCV, TEV, CEV, NLT; cf. Exod 2:2-6; 3:2, 4). To make this reference clear the word “burning” is supplied in the translation.
  2. Deuteronomy 33:16 sn This apparently refers to Joseph’s special status among his brothers as a result of his being chosen by God to save the family from the famine and to lead Egypt.
