Genesis

Chapter 49

1 And Jacob3290 called7121 to his sons,1121 and said,559 Gather622 yourselves together, that I may tell5046 you that which834 shall befall7122 you in the last319 days.3117

2 Gather6908 yourselves together, and hear,8085 you sons1121 of Jacob;3290 and listen8085 to Israel3478 your father.1

3 Reuben,7205 you are my firstborn,1060 my might,3581 and the beginning7225 of my strength,202 the excellency3499 of dignity,7613 and the excellency3499 of power:5794

4 Unstable6349 as water,4325 you shall not excel;3498 because3588 you went5927 up to your father's1 bed;4904 then227 defiled2490 you it: he went5927 up to my couch.3326

5 Simeon8095 and Levi3878 are brothers;251 instruments3627 of cruelty2555 are in their habitations.4380

6 O my soul,5315 come935 not you into their secret;5475 to their assembly,6951 my honor,3519 be not you united:3161 for in their anger639 they slew2026 a man,376 and in their self-will7522 they dig6131 down6131 a wall.7794

7 Cursed779 be their anger,639 for it was fierce;5794 and their wrath,5678 for it was cruel:7185 I will divide2505 them in Jacob,3290 and scatter6327 them in Israel.3478

8 Judah,3063 you are he whom your brothers251 shall praise:3034 your hand3027 shall be in the neck6203 of your enemies;341 your father's1 children1121 shall bow7812 down7812 before you.

9 Judah3063 is a lion's738 whelp:1482 from the prey,2964 my son,1121 you are gone5927 up: he stooped3766 down, he couched7257 as a lion,738 and as an old3833 lion;3833 who4310 shall rouse6965 him up?

10 The scepter7626 shall not depart5493 from Judah,3063 nor a lawgiver2710 from between996 his feet,7272 until5704 3588 Shiloh7886 come;935 and to him shall the gathering3349 of the people5971 be.

11 Binding631 his foal5895 to the vine,1612 and his ass's860 colt1121 to the choice8321 vine;8321 he washed3526 his garments3830 in wine,3196 and his clothes5497 in the blood1818 of grapes:6025

12 His eyes5869 shall be red2447 with wine,3196 and his teeth8127 white3836 with milk.2461

13 Zebulun2074 shall dwell7931 at the haven2348 of the sea;3220 and he shall be for an haven2348 of ships;591 and his border3411 shall be to Zidon.6721

14 Issachar3485 is a strong1634 ass2543 couching7257 down between996 two burdens:4942

15 And he saw7200 that rest4496 was good,2896 and the land776 that it was pleasant;5276 and bowed5186 his shoulder7926 to bear,5445 and became1961 a servant5647 to tribute.4522

16 Dan1835 shall judge1777 his people,5971 as one259 of the tribes7626 of Israel.3478

17 Dan1835 shall be a serpent5175 by the way,1870 an adder8207 in the path,734 that bites5391 the horse5483 heels,6119 so that his rider7392 shall fall5307 backward.268

18 I have waited6960 for your salvation,3444 O LORD.3068

19 Gad,1410 a troop1416 shall overcome1464 him: but he shall overcome1464 at the last.6119

20 Out of Asher836 his bread3899 shall be fat,8082 and he shall yield5414 royal4428 dainties.4574

21 Naphtali5321 is a hind355 let loose:7971 he gives5414 goodly8233 words.561

22 Joseph3130 is a fruitful6509 bough,1121 even a fruitful6509 bough1121 by a well;5869 whose branches1121 run6805 over5921 the wall:7791

23 The archers1167 2671 have sorely4843 grieved4843 him, and shot7232 at him, and hated7852 him:

24 But his bow7198 stayed3427 in strength,386 and the arms2220 of his hands3027 were made strong6339 by the hands3027 of the mighty46 God of Jacob;3290 (from there8033 is the shepherd,7462 the stone68 of Israel:3478)

25 Even by the God410 of your father,1 who shall help5826 you; and by the Almighty,7706 who shall bless1288 you with blessings1293 of heaven8064 above,5921 blessings1293 of the deep8415 that lies7257 under,8478 blessings1293 of the breasts,7699 and of the womb:7356

26 The blessings1293 of your father1 have prevailed1396 above5921 the blessings1293 of my progenitors2029 to the utmost bound8379 of the everlasting5769 hills:1389 they shall be on the head7218 of Joseph,3130 and on the crown6936 of the head6936 of him that was separate5139 from his brothers.251

27 Benjamin1144 shall shred2963 as a wolf:2061 in the morning1242 he shall devour398 the prey,5706 and at night6153 he shall divide2505 the spoil.7998

28 All3605 these428 are the twelve8147 6240 tribes7626 of Israel:3478 and this2063 is it that their father1 spoke1696 to them, and blessed1288 them; every one376 according834 to his blessing1293 he blessed1288 them.

29 And he charged6680 them, and said559 to them, I am to be gathered622 to my people:5971 bury6912 me with my fathers1 in the cave4631 that is in the field7704 of Ephron6085 the Hittite,2850

30 In the cave4631 that is in the field7704 of Machpelah,4375 which834 is before5921 6440 Mamre,4471 in the land776 of Canaan,3667 which834 Abraham85 bought7069 with the field7704 of Ephron6085 the Hittite2850 for a possession272 of a burial plot.6913

31 There8033 they buried6912 Abraham85 and Sarah8283 his wife;802 there8033 they buried6912 Isaac3327 and Rebekah7259 his wife;802 and there8033 I buried6912 Leah.3812

32 The purchase4735 of the field7704 and of the cave4631 that is therein was from the children1121 of Heth.2845

33 And when Jacob3290 had made an end3615 of commanding6680 his sons,1121 he gathered622 up his feet7272 into413 the bed,4296 and yielded1478 up the ghost,1478 and was gathered622 to his people.5971

第49章

1 雅各召衆子曰、當集於前、我將以異日之事告爾。

2 惟爾衆子宜咸集、聽乃父以色列之言。

3 我之冢子、厥爲流便、我力方剛、始鍾爾身、有威有能、惟爾獨擅。

4 然爾多欲、如水之沸、爾上父榻而汚之、故不卓越於昆弟間。

5 西面利未、兄弟也、詭詞約人、而行殘忍。

6 我心不願與同謀、我意不願以共會、其乘怒而殺人、其縱欲而圮垣。

7 厥怒烈、厥氣暴、悉屬可詛、我必分之於雅各家、散之於以色列族。

8 猶大歟、兄弟必頌美爾、爾父之子、伏拜爾前、爾必扼敵之吭。

9 猶大若稚獅、見物則斷傷之、悠然而去、吾子如牡獅、伏視眈眈、亦猶牝獅、孰敢攖之。

10 猶大族中、代有秉鈞執政之人、待賜安者至、民咸歸之。

11 縶厥驢於葡萄樹、亦維小驢於葡萄樹之佳者、以酒滌衣、以葡萄汁濯服。

12 其目因酒而赤、其齒因酒而白。

13 西布倫將居海濱、泊舟之所、界延西頓。

14 以薩迦如健驢、臥於爾藩間、

15 以靜逸爲可嘉、以土壤爲美觀、仔肩而負荷、入貢以服役。

16 但將治其民、使以色列族支派之一。

17 但如蛇於途側、蝮於道旁、以傷馬足、乘者下墜。

18 耶和華拯我、我所企望。

19 伽得爲軍所侵、反襲其後。

20 亞設藏有珍錯、王所食之甘旨、悉產其地。

21 納大利歡聲如旣釋之麀。

22 約瑟如蔥蘢之樹、植於泉旁、其枝蔓延踰垣。

23 昔約瑟爲矢人所困、爭競而窘逐之。

24 恃以色列有力之牧者、卽雅各有能之上帝、故其弓仍勁、其手尚強。

25 爾父之上帝、眷祐於爾、全能之主、錫嘏於爾、天上之繁祉、地下之名泉、產育乳哺之福。

26 爾父之福、恒久不已、勝於亙古山嶽所出之寶物、昔約瑟遠兄弟而去、此福必歸其首。

27 便雅憫如狼、斷傷牲畜、朝吞所獲、夕分所得。

28 此皆以色列十二支派、其父爲之祝嘏、各依其祚、而禱其福。

29 父命之曰、我將返本、當葬我於赫人以弗崙田中之穴、以爲塚地、附吾祖父側。

30 昔亞伯拉罕自赫人以弗崙購迦南地慢哩相對麥比拉田之穴、以爲塚地。

31 族人於斯土葬亞伯拉罕、及其妻撒拉、亦葬以撒及其妻利百加、我亦葬利亞。

32 其田與穴、購自赫人。

33 雅各命衆子畢、斂足於牀、氣絕返本。
