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.
Nígbà náà ni Jakọbu ránṣẹ́ pe àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀, ó sì wí pé, “Ẹ kó ara yín jọ pọ̀, kí n le è sọ ohun tí yóò ṣẹlẹ̀ ní ọjọ́ iwájú fún un yín.
2 Assemble yourselves, and hear, ye sons of Jacob, And listen to Israel your father.
“Ẹ kó ara yín jọ pọ̀, kí ẹ sì tẹ́tí, ẹ̀yin ọmọ Jakọbu; ẹ fetí sí Israẹli baba yín.
3 Reuben, thou art my firstborn, My might, and the firstfruits of my vigour: Excellency of dignity, and excellency of strength.
“Reubeni, ìwọ ni àkọ́bí mi, agbára mi, ìpilẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ipá mi, títayọ ní ọlá àti títayọ ní agbára.
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.
Ẹni ríru bí omi Òkun, ìwọ kì yóò tayọ mọ́, nítorí pé ìwọ gun ibùsùn baba rẹ, lórí àkéte mi, ìwọ sì bà á jẹ́ (ìwọ bá ọ̀kan nínú àwọn aya baba rẹ lòpọ̀).
5 Simeon and Levi are brethren: Instruments of violence their swords.
“Simeoni àti Lefi jẹ́ arákùnrin— idà wọn jẹ́ ohun èlò ogun alágbára.
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.
Kí ọkàn mi má ṣe ni àṣepọ̀ pẹ̀lú wọn, kí n má sì ṣe dúró níbí ìpéjọpọ̀ wọn, nítorí wọ́n ti pa àwọn ènìyàn ní ìbínú wọn, wọ́n sì da àwọn màlúù lóró bí ó ti wù wọ́n.
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.
Ìfibú ni ìbínú wọn nítorí tí ó gbóná púpọ̀, àti fún ìrunú wọn nítorí tí ó kún fún ìkà! Èmi yóò tú wọn ká ní Jakọbu, èmi ó sì fọ́n wọn ká ní Israẹli.
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.
“Juda, àwọn arákùnrin rẹ yóò yìn ọ, ọwọ́ rẹ yóò wà ní ọrùn àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ, àwọn ọmọkùnrin baba rẹ yóò foríbalẹ̀ fún ọ.
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?
Ọmọ kìnnìún ni ọ́, ìwọ Juda, o darí láti igbó ọdẹ, ọmọ mi. Bí i kìnnìún, o ba mọ́lẹ̀, o sì sùn sílẹ̀ bí i abo kìnnìún, ta ni ó tó bẹ́ẹ̀, kí o lé e dìde?
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.
Ọ̀pá oyè kì yóò kúrò ní Juda bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ọ̀pá-ìṣàkóso kì yóò kúrò láàrín ẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀, títí tí Ṣilo tí ó ni í yóò fi dé, tí gbogbo àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè yóò máa wárí fún un.
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.

12 The eyes are red with wine, And the teeth [are] white with milk.

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.
“Sebuluni yóò máa gbé ní etí Òkun, yóò sì jẹ́ èbúté fún ọkọ̀ ojú omi, agbègbè rẹ yóò tàn ká títí dé Sidoni.
14 Issachar is a bony ass, Crouching down between two hurdles.
“Isakari jẹ́ kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ alágbára tí ó dùbúlẹ̀ láàrín agbo àgùntàn.
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.

16 Dan will judge his people, As another of the tribes of Israel.
“Dani yóò ṣe ìdájọ́ àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọ̀kan nínú àwọn ẹ̀yà Israẹli.
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.
Dani yóò jẹ́ ejò ni pópónà àti paramọ́lẹ̀ ní ẹ̀bá ọ̀nà, tí ó bu ẹṣin jẹ ní ẹsẹ̀, kí ẹni tí ń gùn ún bá à le è ṣubú sẹ́yìn.
18 I wait for thy salvation, O Jehovah.

19 Gad — troops will rush upon him; But he will rush upon the heel.

20 Out of Asher, his bread shall be fat, And he will give royal dainties.

21 Naphtali is a hind let loose; He giveth goodly words.
“Naftali yóò jẹ́ abo àgbọ̀nrín tí a tú sílẹ̀ tí ó ń bí ọmọ dáradára.
22 Joseph is a fruitful bough; A fruitful bough by a well; [His] branches shoot over the wall.
“Josẹfu jẹ́ àjàrà eléso, àjàrà eléso ní etí odò, tí ẹ̀ka rẹ̀ gun orí odi.
23 The archers have provoked him, And shot at, and hated him;
Pẹ̀lú ìkorò, àwọn tafàtafà dojú ìjà kọ ọ́, wọ́n tafà sí í pẹ̀lú ìkanra.
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:
Ṣùgbọ́n ọrun rẹ̀ dúró ni agbára, ọwọ́ agbára rẹ̀ ni a sì mu lára le, nítorí ọwọ́ alágbára Jakọbu, nítorí olùtọ́jú àti aláàbò àpáta Israẹli,
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.

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.
Ìbùkún baba rẹ pọ̀ púpọ̀ ju ìbùkún àwọn òkè ńlá ìgbàanì, ju ẹ̀bùn ńlá àwọn òkè láéláé. Jẹ́ kí gbogbo èyí sọ̀kalẹ̀ sí orí Josẹfu, lé ìpéǹpéjú ọmọ-aládé láàrín arákùnrin rẹ̀.
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.
“Benjamini jẹ́ ìkookò tí ó burú; ní òwúrọ̀ ni ó jẹ ẹran ọdẹ rẹ, ní àṣálẹ́, ó pín ìkógun.”
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.
Gbogbo ìwọ̀nyí ni àwọn ẹ̀yà Israẹli méjìlá, èyí sì ni ohun tí baba wọn sọ fún wọn nígbà tí ó súre fún wọn, tí ó sì fún ẹnìkọ̀ọ̀kan ní ìbùkún tí ó tọ́ sí i.
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,
Nígbà náà ni ó fún wọn ní àwọn ìlànà yìí, “Ọjọ́ ikú mi kù fẹ́ẹ́rẹ́. Kí ẹ sin mí sí ibojì pẹ̀lú àwọn baba mi ní inú àpáta ní ilẹ̀ Hiti ará Efroni.
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.
Ihò àpáta tí ó wà ní ilẹ̀ Makpela, nítòsí Mamre ní Kenaani, èyí tí Abrahamu rà gẹ́gẹ́ bí ilẹ̀ ìsìnkú lọ́wọ́ Efroni ará Hiti pẹ̀lú ilẹ̀ rẹ̀.
31 There they buried Abraham and Sarah his wife; there they buried Isaac and Rebecca his wife; and there I buried Leah.
Níbẹ̀ ni a sin Abrahamu àti aya rẹ̀ Sara sí, níbẹ̀ ni a sin Isaaki àti Rebeka aya rẹ̀ sí, níbẹ̀ sì ni mo sìnkú Lea sí.
32 The purchase of the field, and of the cave that is in it, was from the children of Heth.
Ilẹ̀ náà àti ihò àpáta tí ó wà nínú rẹ̀ ni a rà lọ́wọ́ ará Hiti.”
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.
