Genesis 49:27

Jacob Blesses His Twelve Sons

²⁶ Your father's blessings will prove to be stronger than blessings from the eternal mountains or bounties from the everlasting hills. May they come to rest on Joseph's head, May they be set upon the brow of the one who was separated from his own brothers." ²⁷ "Benjamin is vicious like a wolf; what he kills in the morning he devours in the evening." ²⁸ That's how Israel blessed these twelve tribes of Israel, and this is what their father told them when he pronounced his blessing for them, blessing each one with a blessing suitable for them.
