| 1 Now this is the blessing with which Moses the man of God blessed the sons of Israel before his death. | 1 And this is the blessing, wherewith Moses the man of God blessed the children of Israel before his death. | 1 And this is the blessing, wherewith Moses the man of God blessed the children of Israel before his death. | 1 This is the blessing, wherewith the man of God Moses blessed the children of Israel, before his death. | 1 And this is the blessing with which Moses the man of God blessed the sons of Israel before his death, | 2 He said, "The LORD came from Sinai, And dawned on them from Seir; He shone forth from Mount Paran, And He came from the midst of ten thousand holy ones; At His right hand there was flashing lightning for them. | 2 And he said, The LORD came from Sinai, and rose up from Seir unto them; he shined forth from mount Paran, and he came with ten thousands of saints: from his right hand went a fiery law for them. | 2 And he said, Jehovah came from Sinai, And rose from Seir unto them; He shined forth from mount Paran, And he came from the ten thousands of holy ones: At his right hand was a fiery law for them. | 2 And he said: The Lord came from Sinai, and from Seir he rose up to us: he hath appeared from mount Pharan, and with him thousands of saints. In his right hand a fiery law. | 2 and he saith: -- 'Jehovah from Sinai hath come, And hath risen from Seir for them; He hath shone from mount Paran, And hath come with myriads of holy ones; At His right hand are springs for them. | 3 "Indeed, He loves the people; All Your holy ones are in Your hand, And they followed in Your steps; Everyone receives of Your words. | 3 Yea, he loved the people; all his saints are in thy hand: and they sat down at thy feet; every one shall receive of thy words. | 3 Yea, he loveth the people; All his saints are in thy hand: And they sat down at thy feet; Every one'shall receive of thy words. | 3 He hath loved the people, all the saints are in his hand: and they that approach to his feet, shall receive of his doctrine. | 3 Also He is loving the peoples; All His holy ones are in thy hand, And they -- they sat down at thy foot, Each He lifteth up at thy words. | 4 "Moses charged us with a law, A possession for the assembly of Jacob. | 4 Moses commanded us a law, even the inheritance of the congregation of Jacob. | 4 Moses commanded us a law, An inheritance for the assembly of Jacob. | 4 Moses commanded us a law, the inheritance of the multitude of Jacob. | 4 A law hath Moses commanded us, A possession of the assembly of Jacob. | 5 "And He was king in Jeshurun, When the heads of the people were gathered, The tribes of Israel together. | 5 And he was king in Jeshurun, when the heads of the people and the tribes of Israel were gathered together. | 5 And he was king in Jeshurun, When the heads of the people were gathered, All the tribes of Israel together. | 5 He shall be king with the most right, the princes of the people being assembled with the tribes of Israel. | 5 And he is in Jeshurun king, In the heads of the people gathering together, The tribes of Israel! | NASB | KJV | ASV | DRB | YLT |

These have kept thy word, and observed thy covenant, | 9 Who is saying of his father and his mother, I have not seen him; And his brethren he hath not discerned, And his sons he hath not known; For they have observed Thy saying, And Thy covenant they keep. | 10 "They shall teach Your ordinances to Jacob, And Your law to Israel.
