Of Levi he said, "Let Your ^(o)Thummim and Your Urim belong to ^[h]Your ^(p)godly man, ^(q)Whom You proved at Massah, With whom You contended at the waters of Meribah;

^(r)Who said of his father and his mother, ‘I did not consider them'; And he did not acknowledge his brothers, Nor did he regard his own sons, For ^(s)they observed Your word, And kept Your covenant.

"^(t)They shall teach Your ordinances to Jacob, And Your law to Israel. ^(u)They shall put incense ^[i]before You, And ^(v)whole burnt offerings on Your altar.

"O Lord , bless his substance, And accept the work of his hands; Shatter the loins of those who rise up against him, And those who hate him, so that they will not rise again."
