Selected verse

“Joseph is a fruitful vine,

a fruitful vine by a spring.

His branches run over the wall.

23

The archers have severely grieved him,

shot at him, and persecuted him:

24

But his bow remained strong.

The arms of his hands were made strong,

by the hands of the Mighty One of Jacob,

(from there is the shepherd, the stone of Israel),

25

even by the God of your father, who will help you,

by the Almighty, who will bless you,

with blessings of heaven above,

blessings of the deep that lies below,

blessings of the breasts, and of the womb.
