Genesis 49:26-28
New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
26 The blessings of your father
are stronger than the blessings of the eternal mountains,
the bounties[a] of the everlasting hills;
may they be on the head of Joseph,
on the brow of him who was set apart from his brothers.
27 Benjamin is a ravenous wolf,
in the morning devouring the prey,
and at evening dividing the spoil.”
28 All these are the twelve tribes of Israel, and this is what their father said to them when he blessed them, blessing each one of them with a suitable blessing.
