Moses’s Blessings

33 This is the blessing that Moses, the man of God, gave the Israelites before his death.^(A) ²He said:

The Lord came from Sinai
and appeared to them from Seir;^(B)
he shone on them from Mount Paran^(C)
and came with ten thousand holy ones,^[a]
with lightning^[b] from his right hand^[c] for them.^(D)
³Indeed he loves the people.^[d]^(E)
All your^[e] holy ones are in your hand,
and they assemble^[f] at your feet.
Each receives your words.
⁴Moses gave us instruction,
a possession for the assembly of Jacob.
⁵So he became King in Jeshurun^[g]^(F)
when the leaders of the people gathered
with the tribes of Israel.
