Deuteronomy 33:7-9
1599 Geneva Bible
7 ¶ And thus he blessed Judah, and said, Hear, O Lord, the voice of Judah, and bring him unto his people: his hands shall be [a]sufficient for him, if thou help him against his enemies.
8 ¶ And of Levi he said, Let thy (A)Thummim and thine Urim be with thine Holy one, whom thou didst prove in Massah, and didst cause him to strive at the waters of Meribah.
9 Who said unto his father and to his mother, [b]I have not seen him, neither knew he his brethren, nor knew his own children: for they observed thy word, and kept thy Covenant.

7 And this he said about Judah:(A)
“Hear, Lord, the cry of Judah;
bring him to his people.
With his own hands he defends his cause.
Oh, be his help against his foes!”
8 About Levi(B) he said:
“Your Thummim and Urim(C) belong
to your faithful servant.(D)
You tested(E) him at Massah;
you contended with him at the waters of Meribah.(F)
9 He said of his father and mother,(G)
‘I have no regard for them.’
He did not recognize his brothers
or acknowledge his own children,
but he watched over your word
and guarded your covenant.(H)
