*
And Jacob called unto his sons ,
and said ,
Gather yourselves together ,
that I may tell you that which shall befall you in the last days .
*
Gather yourselves together ,
and hear ,
ye sons of Jacob Ya #
aqob #;
and hearken unto Israel your father .
*
Reuben R @#
uwben #,
thou art my firstborn ,
my might ,
and the beginning of my strength ,
the excellency of dignity s @#
eth #,
and the excellency of power :
*
Unstable as water ,
thou shalt not excel ;
because thou wentest up to thy fathers bed ;
then defiledst thou it :
he went up to my couch .
*
Simeon and Levi are brethren ;
instruments of cruelty are in their habitations .
*
O my soul ,
come not thou into their secret ;
unto their assembly ,
mine honour ,
be not thou united :
for in their anger they slew a man ,
and in their selfwill they digged down a wall .
*
Cursed be their anger ,
for it was fierce ;
and their wrath ,
for it was cruel :
I will divide them in Jacob Ya #
aqob #,
and scatter them in Israel Yisra #
el #.
*
Judah ,
thou art he whom thy brethren shall praise :
thy hand shall be in the neck of thine enemies ;
thy fathers children shall bow down before thee .
*
Judah is a lions whelp :
from the prey ,
my son ,
thou art gone up :
he stooped down ,
he couched as a lion ,
and as an old lion ;
who shall rouse him up ?
*
The sceptre shall not depart from Judah ,
nor a lawgiver from between his feet ,
until Shiloh come ;
and unto him shall the gathering of the people be .
*
Binding his foal unto the vine ,
and his asss colt unto the choice vine ;
he washed his garments in wine ,
and his clothes in the blood of grapes :
*
His eyes shall be red with wine ,
and his teeth white with milk .
*
Zebulun shall dwell at the haven of the sea ;
and he shall be for an haven of ships ;
and his border shall be unto Zidon .
*
Issachar is a strong ass couching down between two burdens :
*
And he saw that rest was good ,
and the land that it was pleasant ;
and bowed his shoulder to bear ,
and became a servant unto tribute .
*
Dan shall judge his people ,
as one of the tribes of Israel Yisra #
el #.
*
Dan shall be a serpent by the way ,
an adder in the path ,
that biteth the horse heels ,
so that his rider shall fall backward .
*
I have waited for thy salvation y @
shuw #
ah #,
O LORD .
*
Gad ,
a troop shall overcome him :
but he shall overcome at the last .
*
Out of Asher his bread shall be fat ,
and he shall yield royal dainties ma #
adan #.
*
Naphtali is a hind let loose :
he giveth goodly words .
*
Joseph is a fruitful bough ,
even a fruitful bough by a well ;
whose branches run over the wall :
*
The archers #
H2671have sorely grieved him ,
and shot at him ,
and hated him :
*
But his bow abode in strength ,
and the arms of his hands were made strong by the hands of the mighty God of Jacob Ya #
aqob #; (
from thence is the shepherd ,
the stone of Israel Yisra #
el #: )
*
Even by the God of thy father ,
who shall help thee ;
and by the Almighty ,
who shall bless thee with blessings of heaven above ,
blessings of the deep that lieth under ,
blessings of the breasts ,
and of the womb :
*
The blessings of thy father have prevailed above the blessings of my progenitors unto the utmost bound of the everlasting hills gib #
ah #:
they shall be on the head of Joseph ,
and on the crown of the head of him that was separate from his brethren .
*
Benjamin shall ravin as a wolf z @#
eb #:
in the morning he shall devour the prey ,
and at night he shall divide the spoil .
*
All these are the twelve #
H8147tribes of Israel Yisra #
el #:
and this is it that their father spake unto them ,
and blessed them ;
every one according to his blessing he blessed them .
*
And he charged them ,
and said unto them ,
I am to be gathered unto my people :
bury me with my fathers in the cave that is in the field of Ephron the Hittite ,
*
In the cave that is in the field of Machpelah ,
which is before Mamre ,
in the land of Canaan K @
na #
an #,
which Abraham bought with the field of Ephron the Hittite for a possession of a buryingplace .
*
There they buried Abraham and Sarah his wife ;
there they buried Isaac and Rebekah his wife ;
and there I buried Leah Le #
ah #.
*
The purchase of the field and of the cave that is therein was from the children of Heth .
*
And when Jacob had made an end of commanding his sons ,
he gathered up his feet into the bed ,
and yielded up the ghost ,
and was gathered unto his people .
