| 33:10 | They shall teach Your ordinances to Jacob, and Your law to Israel. They shall put incense at Your nostrils, and whole burnt offering on Your altar. |

| 33:15 | and with the first of the ancient mountains, and with the best of the everlasting hills; |
| 33:16 | and with the best of the earth, and its fullness; and the good will of Him who dwelt in the Bush; let it come on the head of Joseph, and on the crown of the consecrated one of his brothers. |
| 33:17 | His glory is as the first-born of his ox, and the horns of the wild ox are his horns; with them he shall butt the peoples together to the ends of the earth. And they are the myriads of Ephraim, and they are the thousands of Manasseh. |
| 33:18 | And of Zebulun he said, Rejoice, O Zebulun, in your going out, and O Issachar, in your tents; |
