Numbers 6:22–27

The Priestly Blessing

22 And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying: 

23 “Speak to Aaron and his sons, saying, ‘This is the way you shall bless the children of Israel. Say to them:

24 “The Lord (Deut. 28:3–6) bless you and (Ps. 121:7; John 7:11) keep you;

25 The Lord (Ps. 31:16; 67:1; 80:3, 7, 19; 119:135; Dan. 9:17) make His face shine upon you,

And (Gen. 43:29; Ex. 33:19; Mal. 1:9) be gracious to you;

26 (Ps. 4:6; 89:15) The Lord (Look upon you with favor) lift up His countenance upon you,

And (Lev. 26:6; Is. 26:3, 12; John 14:27; Phil. 4:7) give you peace.” ’

27 (Deut. 28:10; 2 Sam. 7:23; 2 Chr. 7:14; Is. 43:7; Dan. 9:18, 19) “So they shall (invoke) put My name on the children of Israel, and (Ex. 20:24; Num. 23:20; Ps. 5:12; 67:7; 115:12, 13; Eph. 1:3) I will bless them.”
