Genesis
Genesis 49:24–25
24Yet he steadied his bow,
and his strong arms were tempered
by the hands of the Mighty One of Jacob,
in the name of the Shepherd, the Rock of Israel,
25by the God of your father who helps you,
and by the Almightyj who blesses you,
with blessings of the heavens above,
with blessings of the depths below,
with blessings of the breasts and womb.
