8 He said about Levi:

Your Thummim and Urimc belong to your faithful one;D

you tested him at Massah

and contended with him at the Waters of Meribah.d

9 He said about his father and mother,

“I do not regard them.”

He disregarded his brothers

and didn’t acknowledge his sons,

for they kept your word

and maintained your covenant.e

10 They will teach your ordinances to Jacob

and your instruction to Israel;f

they will set incense before you

and whole burnt offerings on your altar.
