Deuteronomy 33:12

Blessing on Benjamin

12 Of Benjamin he said:
The beloved of the Lord will live safely by him;
he protects him all the time,
and the Lord ^{▼▼ Heb “he”; the referent (the Lord) has been specified in the translation for clarity.} places him on his chest. ^{▼▼ Heb “between his shoulders.” This suggests the scene in John 13:23 with Jesus and the Beloved Disciple.}
