< Genesis 49 >
1 And Jacob called his sons, and said, Gather yourselves together, and I will tell you what will befall you at the end of days.
Te phoeiah Jakob loh a carhoek tea khue tih, “Tun ngol uh lamtah, vuenvai ah nangmih taengah aka thoeng ham te nangmih taengah ka puen pawn ni,
2 Assemble yourselves, and hear, ye sons of Jacob, And listen to Israel your father.
Jakob ca rhoek loh a yaak uh tiha coi uh thae vaengah, “Na pa Israel kah ol te ya uh van lah.
3 Reuben, thou art my firstborn, My might, and the firstfruits of my vigour: Excellency of dignity, and excellency of strength.
Reuben nang he ka caming tih, ka thadueng neh, ka thahuem cuek, hlangrhuel boeimang, hlangtlung hlangrhuel la na om dae,
4 Impetuous as the waters, thou shalt have no pre-eminence; Because thou wentest up to thy father's couch: Then defiledst thou [it]: he went up to my bed.
Na pa kah tih thingkong sola na yoeng tih, ka rhaenghmuen te na poeih phoeiah, tui banglana soetaenah dongah caknoi khaw na khueh mahpawh.
5 Simeon and Levi are brethren: Instruments of violence their swords.
Simeon neh Levi boeina, amih rhoi kah tubael tah kuthlahnah tumca ni.
6 My soul, come not into their council; Mine honour, be not united with their assembly; For in their anger they slew men, And in their wantonness houghed oxen.
Amih rhoi kah tingtunnah dongah ka hinglu naepkhap pawh. Amah rhoi kah thintoek dongah hlanga ngawn rhoi tih vaito kaprhui haih hamte amih rhoi kah kolonah la a om dongah, kai kah thangpomnah loh amih rhoi a hlangping te bulbo boel saeh.
7 Cursed be their anger, for it [was] violent; And their rage, for it [was] cruel! I will divide them in Jacob, And scatter them in Israel.
Amih rhoi kah a thinpom khawa tlung dongah a thintoek te thae a phoei thil. Te dongah a mangkhakte Jakob taengah ka tael vetih Israel taengah khaw ka taekyak ni.
8 Judah — [as to] thee, thy brethren will praise thee; Thy hand will be upon the neck of thine enemies; Thy father's children will bow down to thee.
Judah nang he na manuca rhoek loh nang n'uem uh ni. Na kutte na thunkhaa rhawn dongla cu ni. Na pacaboeinate nang taengah bakop uh ni.
9 Judah is a young lion; From the prey, my son, thou art gone up. He stoopeth, he layeth himself down as a lion, And as a lioness: who will rouse him up?
Judah he sathueng ca ni. Ka ca loh maeh kung lamkahna bal phoeiah, sathueng neh sathuengnu bangla aka yuel tih, aka kolte ulong aniha haeng eh.
10 The sceptre will not depart from Judah, Nor the lawgiver from between his feet, Until Shiloh come, And to him will be the obedience of peoples.
Judah lamkah mancai tah nong boel lamtah, a kho laklo lamloh taem saeh. Shiloha pha duela anih taengah, pilnam kah boengainah om saeh.
11 He bindeth his foal to the vine, And his ass's colt to the choice vine; He washeth his dress in wine, And his garment in the blood of grapes.
A laaktal, laaktalte misur dongah, a laak ca te cangsawt misur dongah pael saeh. A pueinakte misurtui dongah, a hnipup, hnipupte misur thii dongah til saeh.
12 The eyes are red with wine, And the teeth [are] white with milk.
Na mik khaw musurtui lakah ling vetih, na note suktui lakah bok ni.
13 Zebulun will dwell at the shore of the seas; Yea, he will be at the shore of the ships, And his side [toucheth] upon Sidon.
Zebulun he tuitunli kah langkaeng ah khosa saeh lamtah, langkaeng kah sangphorhoek bangla a bawtnah loh Sidon due pha saeh.
14 Issachar is a bony ass, Crouching down between two hurdles.
Issakhar he laak songrhuh bangla saelvong laklo ah na kol.
15 And he saw the rest that it was good, And the land that it was pleasant; And he bowed his shoulder to bear, And was a tributary servant.
Duemnah then neh khohmuen hlahmae te khawa hmuh dae, phueih te a laengpang ah a thueng tih aka thotat saldong la om ni.
16 Dan will judge his people, As another of the tribes of Israel.
Dan he Israel koca pakhat vanbangla a pilnam kah lai a thui pah ni.
17 Dan will be a serpent on the way, A horned snake on the path, Which biteth the horse's heels, So that the rider falleth backwards.
Dan he long taengkah rhul neh marhang dongkah aka ngol te a hnuk la bung saeh tila marhang khomik aka maeng tih, caehlong rhulthae bangla om ni.
18 I wait for thy salvation, O Jehovah.
BOEIPA nang kah khangnah ham ni ka lamtawn he.
19 Gad — troops will rush upon him; But he will rush upon the heel.
Gad he caem loh tloek cakhaw anihloh a khomika tloek pah ni.
20 Out of Asher, his bread shall be fat, And he will give royal dainties.
Asher ham caak bae vetih, manghai buhmonga tael ni.
21 Naphtali is a hind let loose; He giveth goodly words.
Naphtali tah sayukrhuinu bangla khocaeh dangka vetih, ol thena thui ni.
22 Joseph is a fruitful bough; A fruitful bough by a well; [His] branches shoot over the wall.
Joseph tah a ca loh thaihsu tih, a ca loh tuiphuet taengkah pungtai. Ngannu ngankhong loh pangbueng dongla luei.
23 The archers have provoked him, And shot at, and hated him;
Thaltang boei rhoek a konaeh uh dongah, a phaep uh tiha kah uh.
24 But his bow abideth firm, And the arms of his hands are supple By the hands of the Mighty One of Jacob. From thence is the shepherd, the stone of Israel:
Tedae Jakob kah samrhang kut rhang neh, Israel aka dawn lungnu rhang neh,
25 From the God of thy father, and he will help thee; And from the Almighty, and he will bless thee — With blessings of heaven from above, With blessings of the deep that lieth under, With blessings of the breast and of the womb.
Na pa kah Pathen loh nang m'bom tih Tlungthang loh nangte vaana sosang kah yoethennah, a laedil kah aka kol yoethennah nen khaw, a rhangsuk dongkah yoethennah nen khaw, a bung khuikah nen khaw yoethen m'paek dongah, a li khaw tangkuek la om tih, a kut bantha khaw caang.
26 The blessings of thy father surpass the blessings of my ancestors, Unto the bounds of the everlasting hills: They shall be on the head of Joseph, And on the crown of the head of him that was separated from his brethren.
Na pa kah yoethennah he kai aka yom kah yoethennah lakah len. Khosuen som ah a saelongnah hil Joseph lu so neh a manuca hlangcoelh luki soah om saeh.
27 Benjamin — [as] a wolf will he tear to pieces; In the morning he will devour the prey, And in the evening he will divide the booty.
Benjamin, uithang laihat loh, mincang ah maeha ngaeh, hlaem ah kutbuema tael,” a ti nah.
28 All these are the twelve tribes of Israel, and this is what their father spoke to them; and he blessed them: every one according to his blessing he blessed them.
A pum boeih la Israel koca he hlai nit dongah a napa loh amih taengaha thui vaengah amah kah yoethennah neh amihte yoethen rhip a paek.
29 And he charged them, and said to them, I am gathered to my people: bury me with my fathers in the cave that is in the field of Ephron the Hittite,
Te phoeiah amih tea uen tih, “Kai he ka pilnam taengla ka khum atah a parhoek neh Khitti Ephron lo kah lungko ah n'up uh.
30 in the cave that is in the field of Machpelah, which is opposite to Mamre, in the land of Canaan, which Abraham bought of Ephron the Hittite along with the field for a possession of a sepulchre.
Kanaan kho Mamre hmai, Makpelah lo kah lungko te phuel khohut la Khitti Ephron taeng lamkah Abrahamloh a lai khohmuen ni.
31 There they buried Abraham and Sarah his wife; there they buried Isaac and Rebecca his wife; and there I buried Leah.
Ti ahte Abraham neh a yuu Saraha up uh tih Isaak neh a yuu Rebekah te pahoia up uh coeng. Leah khaw pahoi ka up coeng.
32 The purchase of the field, and of the cave that is in it, was from the children of Heth.
Te dongah Kheth carhoek taeng lamkah te khohmuen boiva neh a khuikah lungko te,” a ti nah.
33 And when Jacob had made an end of commanding his sons, he gathered his feet into the bed, and expired, and was gathered to his peoples.
Jakob loh a ca rhoek a uen tea khah phoeiah baiphaih dongla a khoa yueh. Te phoeiah pal tih a pilnam taengla khoem uh.
