¹⁵ the choicest portion^[a] of the eternal mountains,
    and the best of the everlasting hills;
¹⁶ from the choicest of the earth and its fullness,
    and the favor of the one who lived in the burning^[b] bush.
May blessing^[c] rest on Joseph’s head,
    and on the crown of the head
        of the one set apart from his brothers.
¹⁷ May the firstborn of his bull be honorable to him,
    and may his horns be those of a wild ox.
With them may he push people all together,
    to the ends of the earth.
These are the myriads^[d] of Ephraim
    and the thousands of Manasseh.”
