Genesis 49:1-15

And Jacob
<03290>
called
<07121> (8799)
unto his sons
<01121>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)_,
Gather yourselves together
<0622> (8734)_,
that I may tell
<05046> (8686)
you [that] which shall befall
<07122> (8799)
you in the last
<0319>
days
<03117>_.
Gather yourselves together
<06908> (8734)_,
and hear
<08085> (8798)_,
ye sons
<01121>
of Jacob
<03290>_;
and hearken
<08085> (8798)
unto Israel
<03478>
your father
<01>_.
Reuben
<07205>_,
thou [art] my firstborn
<01060>_,
my might
<03581>_,
and the beginning
<07225>
of my strength
<0202>_,
the excellency
<03499>
of dignity
<07613>_,
and the excellency
<03499>
of power
<05794>_:
Unstable
<06349>
as water
<04325>_,
thou shalt not excel
<03498> (8686)_;
because thou wentest up
<05927> (8804)
to thy father's
<01>
bed
<04904>_;
then defiledst thou
<02490> (8765)
[it]: he went up
<05927> (8804)
to my couch
<03326>_.
{thou shalt...: Heb. do not thou excel} {he went...: or, my couch is gone}
Simeon
<08095>
and Levi
<03878>
[are] brethren
<0251>_;
instruments
<03627>
of cruelty
<02555>
[are in] their habitations
<04380>_.
{instruments...: or, their swords are weapons of violence}
O my soul
<05315>_,
come
<0935> (8799)
not thou into their secret
<05475>_;
unto their assembly
<06951>_,
mine honour
<03519>_,
be not thou united
<03161> (8799)_:
for in their anger
<0639>
they slew
<02026> (8804)
a man
<0376>_,
and in their selfwill
<07522>
they digged down
<06131> (8765)
a wall
<07794>_.
{digged...: or, houghed oxen}
Cursed
<0779> (8803)
[be] their anger
<0639>_,
for [it was] fierce
<05794>_;
and their wrath
<05678>_,
for it was cruel
<07185> (8804)_:
I will divide
<02505> (8762)
them in Jacob
<03290>_,
and scatter
<06327> (8686)
them in Israel
<03478>_.
Judah
<03063>_,
thou [art he] whom thy brethren
<0251>
shall praise
<03034> (8686)_:
thy hand
<03027>
[shall be] in the neck
<06203>
of thine enemies
<0341> (8802)_;
thy father's
<01>
children
<01121>
shall bow down
<07812> (8691)
before thee.
Judah
<03063>
[is] a lion's
<0738>
whelp
<01482>_:
from the prey
<02964>_,
my son
<01121>_,
thou art gone up
<05927> (8804)_:
he stooped down
<03766> (8804)_,
he couched
<07257> (8804)
as a lion
<0738>_,
and as an old lion
<03833>_;
who shall rouse him up
<06965> (8686)_?
The sceptre
<07626>
shall not depart
<05493> (8799)
from Judah
<03063>_,
nor a lawgiver
<02710> (8781)
from between his feet
<07272>_,
until
<03588>
Shiloh
<07886>
come
<0935> (8799)_;
and unto him [shall] the gathering
<03349>
of the people
<05971>
[be].
Binding
<0631> (8802)
his foal
<05895>
unto the vine
<01612>_,
and his ass's
<0860>
colt
<01121>
unto the choice vine
<08321>_;
he washed
<03526> (8765)
his garments
<03830>
in wine
<03196>_,
and his clothes
<05497>
in the blood
<01818>
of grapes
<06025>_:
His eyes
<05869>
[shall be] red
<02447>
with wine
<03196>_,
and his teeth
<08127>
white
<03836>
with milk
<02461>_.
Zebulun
<02074>
shall dwell
<07931> (8799)
at the haven
<02348>
of the sea
<03220>_;
and he [shall be] for an haven
<02348>
of ships
<0591>_;
and his border
<03411>
[shall be] unto Zidon
<06721>_.
Issachar
<03485>
[is] a strong
<01634>
ass
<02543>
couching down
<07257> (8802)
between two burdens
<04942>_:
And he saw
<07200> (8799)
that rest
<04496>
[was] good
<02896>_,
and the land
<0776>
that [it was] pleasant
<05276> (8804)_;
and bowed
<05186> (8799)
his shoulder
<07926>
to bear
<05445> (8800)_,
and became a servant
<05647> (8802)
unto tribute
<04522>_.
