20. About the tribe of Gad he said:“Praise God, who made their territory large.Gad waits like a lionTo tear off an arm or a scalp.

21. They took the best of the land for themselves;A leader's share was assigned to them.They obeyed the Lord's commands and lawsWhen the leaders of Israel were gathered together.”

22. About the tribe of Dan he said:“Dan is a young lion;He leaps out from Bashan.”

23. About the tribe of Naphtali he said:“Naphtali is richly blessed by the Lord's good favour;Their land reaches to the south from Lake Galilee.”

24. About the tribe of Asher he said:“Asher is blessed more than the other tribes.May he be the favourite of his brothers,And may his land be rich with olive trees.

25. May his towns be protected with iron gates,And may he always live secure.”

26. People of Israel, no god is like your God,riding in splendour across the sky,riding through the clouds to come to your aid.
