And he provided the first part for himself, because there, in a portion of the lawgiver, was he seated; and he came with the heads of the people, he executed the justice of the LORD, and his judgments with Israel.

Verse 21 is found in chapter 33 of Deuteronomy. The blessing continues over Benjamin, Joseph, Zebulun, Issachar, Gad, and Dan. Each tribe receives wording adapted to its situation and territory. Joseph receives especially abundant imagery related to the fertility of the land, while other tribes are associated with security, expansion, or military strength. Together, the blessings preserve tribal identity within Israel’s unity.

und er ersah sich das Erbe, denn daselbst war ihm eines Fürsten Teil aufgehoben, und er kam mit den Obersten des Volks und vollführte die Gerechtigkeit des HERRN und seine Rechte an Israel.
Y él se ha provisto de la parte primera, Porque allí una porción del legislador fuele reservada, Y vino en la delantera del pueblo; La justicia de Jehová ejecutará, Y sus juicios con Israel.
Eligió para sí lo mejor, porque allí estaba reservada la porción del legislador. Vino con los jefes del pueblo; ejecutó la justicia de Jehová y sus normas con Israel».
Il a choisi les prémices du pays, Car là est caché l'héritage du législateur; Il a marché en tête du peuple, Il a exécuté la justice de l'Eternel, Et ses ordonnances envers Israël.
Egli l’ha provveduto delle primizie del paese, Perciocchè ivi era riposta la parte del Legislatore; Ed egli è venuto co’ capi del popolo; Egli ha eseguita la giustizia del Signore, E i suoi giudicii, con Israele
E se proveu da melhor parte, porquanto ali estava escondida a porção do legislador; por isso veio com os chefes do povo, executou a justiça do SENHOR e os seus juízos para com Israel.
他為自己看中了最好的, 因為那是為掌權者所存留的一份。 他與百姓的領袖同來 , 執行耶和華的公義 和耶和華為 以色列 所立的典章。』
