Blessings of Moses on Israel
33 Now[a] this is the blessing with which Moses, the man of God, blessed the Israelites[b] before[c] his death.
2 Then[d] he said,
“Yahweh came from Sinai,
and he dawned upon them from Seir;
he shone forth from Mount Paran,
and he came with myriads of holy ones,
at his right hand a fiery law for them.[e]
3 Moreover,[f] he loves his people,[g]
all the holy ones were in your hand,
and they bowed down to[h] your feet,
each one accepted directions from you.[i]
