Genesis 49:23 in Context — Genesis 49

21 Nephtalí, sierva dejada, que dará dichos hermosos.

22 Ramo fructífero José, ramo fructífero junto á fuente, cuyos vástagos se extienden sobre el muro.

23 Y causáronle amargura, y asaeteáronle, y aborreciéronle los archeros:

24 Mas su arco quedó en fortaleza, y los brazos de sus manos se corroboraron por las manos del Fuerte de Jacob, (de allí el pastor, y la piedra de Israel,)

25 Del Dios de tu padre, el cual te ayudará, y del Omnipotente, el cual te bendecirá con bendiciones de los cielos de arriba, con bendiciones del abismo que está abajo, con bendiciones del seno y de la matriz.
