22 “aJoseph is a fruitful bough,
A fruitful bough by a spring;
Its branches run over a wall.
23 And the archers bitterly attacked him and shot at him,
And they bore a grudge against him;
24 But his abow remained firm,
And bhis arms were agile,
From the hands of the cMighty One of Jacob,
From there is dthe Shepherd, ethe Stone of Israel,
25 From athe God of your father who helps you,
And bby the Almighty who blesses you
With cblessings of heaven above,
Blessings of the deep that lies beneath,
Blessings of the breasts and of the womb.
26 The blessings of your father
Have surpassed the blessings of my ancestors
Up to the utmost bound of athe everlasting hills;
May they be on the head of Joseph,
And on the top of the head of the one distinguished among his brothers.
