24 I pray this for the tribe of Asher:
May the Lord bless Asher's tribe more than the other tribes.
    May their brothers be pleased with them.
May Asher's people be rich enough to wash their feet in olive oil.
25 They will use iron and bronze to make the gates of their towns strong.

    He travels with great authority on the clouds.
