Deuteronomium 33:1-2

1 Dit nu is de zegen, met welken Mozes, de man Gods, de kinderen Israels gezegend heeft, voor zijn dood.
2 Hij zeide dan: De HEERE is van Sinai gekomen, en is hunlieden opgegaan van Seir; Hij is blinkende verschenen van het gebergte Paran, en is aangekomen met tien duizenden der heiligen; tot Zijn rechterhand was een vurige wet aan hen.
