is as the aroma of a field
which Hashem has it blessed.
28and G-d shall you(SG) give of the dew of heaven,
and of the fatness of the earth,
and much grain and wine.
29peoples shall you(SG) serve,
and nations shall self bow down to you(SG).
be a master over your brothers,
and the sons of your mother shall self bow down to you(SG).

and blessed the ones which bless you!

behold, far away of the fatness of the earth will be your dwelling,
and on the heaven's dew from above;
40and on your sword will you live,
and your brother will you serve;
and it will be, when you (sg) will self attacked,
will you cast down his yoke from your neck.
