Sumpain ang kanilang galit, sapagka't mabangis; At ang kanilang pagiinit, sapagka't mabagsik. Aking babahagihin sila sa Jacob. At aking pangangalatin sila sa Israel.

6448. And blessed them; every one according to his blessing he blessed them. That this signifies predictions as to the spiritual life, of what would happen to each one in such a state, is evident from the signification of “blessing,” as being prediction (see n. 6230, 6254); and from the signification of “every one according to his blessing he blessed them,” as being what would happen to each one. That it is as to the spiritual life of each one in such a state, is plain from all that has been said in this chapter of the sons of Israel or the tribes named from them; for by them are described all states of the church as to goods and truths, thus as to the spiritual life of everyone within the church.
6230. And blessed me. That this signifies a prediction about vivification, is evident from the signification of “blessing,” as here being a prediction about vivification; for the blessing was that He would make him fruitful, and multiply him, and make him a company of peoples, and give the land to his seed after him for an eternal possession; all which are predictions about vivification. Not that the posterity of Jacob were vivified; but they who are in the truth of faith and the good of charity; for these are “Jacob” and “Israel” in the internal sense.
