Numbers
The LORD gave Aaron and his sons specific words to bless Israel: “The LORD bless you and keep you… the LORD lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace.” The passage says this is how God’s name was put upon the people. See Numbers 6:22–27.
22Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,
23Speak to Aaron and to his sons, saying, On this wise you shall bless the children of Israel: you shall tell them,
24Yahweh bless you, and keep you:
25Yahweh make his face to shine on you, and be gracious to you:
26Yahweh lift up his face toward you, and give you peace.
27So shall they put my name on the children of Israel; and I will bless them.
