Genesis 49
1 And Jacob called his sons, and said to them: Gather yourselves together that I may tell you the things that shall befall you in the last days.
Jakop ni a capanaw a kaw teh ahnimouh koevah, hmalah nangmouh koe ka tho hane hnonaw ka dei thai nahanlah kamkhueng awh haw.
2 Gather yourselves together, and hear, O ye sons of Jacob, hearken to Israel your father:
Nangmouh Jakop canaw kamkhueng awh nateh, na pa Isarel e lawk thai awh haw.
3 Ruben, my firstborn, thou art my strength, and the beginning of my sorrow: excelling in gifts, greater in command.
Reuben, nang teh ka ca camin, ka hnosakthainae, ka thaonae, aluepaw, karasangpoung hoi a tha kaawm poung e lah na o.
4 Thou art poured out as water, grow thou not: because thou wentest up to thy father’s bed, and didst defile his couch.
Hatei, tui patetlah kâhuen e lungthin na tawn. Taluenae koe na phat mahoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, nang ni kaie ikhun dawk na luen teh na kamhnawng sak. Ka ikhun hah na tapam.
5 Simeon and Levi brethren: vessels of iniquity, waging war.
Simeon hoi Levih teh hmaunawngha roi doeh. Lungthin ponae senehmaica ao roinae hmuen koe ao roi.
6 Let not my soul go into their counsel, nor my glory be in their assembly: because in their fury they slew a man, and in their selfwill they undermined a wall.
Ka muitha ni ahnimouh roi ni hro e hno dawk kâen mahoeh. Kaie bawilennae ni ahnimouh kamkhuengnae dawk bawk van mahoeh. Ahnimouh ni a lungkhuek teh tami a thei awh, ma ngainae pâlei teh khonaw a raphoe awh toe.
7 Cursed be their fury, because it was stubborn: and their wrath because it was cruel: I will divide them in Jacob, and will scatter them in Israel.
Ahnimouh lungkhueknae hah thoebonae lah awm naseh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, puenghoi a thasai. Ahnimouh lungkhueknae teh thoebo lah awm seh, bangkongtetpawiteh a kâoup awh. Jakop miphun Isarel catoun thung vah ahnimouh kâkayei sak han.
8 Juda, thee shall thy brethren praise: thy hands shall be on the necks of thy enemies: the sons of thy father shall bow down to thee.
Oe Judah nang teh, hmaunawnghanaw ni pholen e lah na o han. Na kut teh na tarannaw e lahuen dawk na toung han. Na pa e capanaw ni na hmalah a tabut awh han.
9 Juda is a lion’s whelp: to the prey, my son, thou art gone up: resting thou hast couched as a lion, and as a lioness, who shall rouse him?
Judah teh sendektanca doeh. Ka capa ni moi kei nah koehoi na luen takhai hnukkhu, sendek hoi sendekmanu patetlah ka kâva ni teh ka kamkawn e hah apinimaw a pâhlaw ngam han.
10 The sceptre shall not be taken away from Juda, nor a ruler from his thigh, till he come that is to be sent, and he shall be the expectation of nations.
Siangpahrang sonron ni Judah tâcawt takhai mahoeh. Kâlawk kapoekung hai a khok rahak hoi kahmat mahoeh. Shiloh a tho hoehroukrak teh miphun pueng ni a lawk a ngai pouh han.
11 Tying his foal to the vineyard, and his ass, O my son, to the vine. He shall wash his robe in wine, and his garment in the blood of the grape.
Ahnie lanaw hah misurkung dawk a pen teh, lacanaw hah misurkung kahawi e dawk a pen. A hni hah misurtui dawk a pâsu teh a khohna hah misur thi dawk a pâsu.
12 His eyes are more beautiful than wine, and his teeth whiter than milk.
A mit teh misurtui hlak a paling teh, a hâ teh sanutui hlak a pangaw.
13 Zabulon shall dwell on the sea shore, and in the road of ships, reaching as far as Sidon.
Zebulun teh long kâhatnae talî teng kho a sak han. Long kâhatnae hmuen lah ao han. A khori teh Zidon totouh han.
14 Issachar shall be a strong ass lying down between the borders.
Issakhar teh mon rahak ka tabawk e a tha kaawm poung e doeh.
15 He saw rest that it was good: and the land that it was excellent: and he bowed his shoulder to carry, and became a servant under tribute.
Kâhatnae hah ahawi telah a pouk teh, a ram hah a nawm telah a pouk. Hno phu hanlah a loung a rahnoum sak teh, sannaw lah a coung awh.
16 Dan shall judge his people like another tribe in Israel.
Dan ni a taminaw hah Isarel miphun rahak vah miphun buet touh patetlah lawkceng han.
17 Let Dan be a snake in the way, a serpent in the path, that biteth the horse’s heels that his rider may fall backward.
Dan teh lam dawk kaawm e tahrun doeh. Marang kâcui e tami hnuklah rawp sak hanlah lam rahak ao teh, marang khok ka khuek e hrunthoe doeh.
18 I will look for thy salvation, O Lord.
Oe BAWIPA, na rungngangnae teh ouk ka ngaihawi.
19 Gad, being girded, shall fight before him: and he himself shall be girded backward.
Gad teh tarannaw ni tuk vaiteh, ahni ni hai bout a tuk van han.
20 Aser, his bread shall be fat, and he shall yield dainties to kings.
Asher teh canei koelah tawnta vaiteh, siangpahrang canei hanlah a tâco sak han.
21 Nephtali, a hart let loose, and giving words of beauty.
Naphtali teh sayuk patetlah dawkcawk vaiteh, lawk kahawi a dei han.
22 Joseph is a growing son, a growing son and comely to behold; the daughters run to and fro upon the wall.
Joseph teh a paw kara e a kang lah ao teh, a kangnaw teh rapan naw dawk a yam han.
23 But they that held darts provoked him, and quarrelled with him, and envied him.
Licung kathoumnaw ni puenghoi a lungmathoe sak awh han. A ka awh teh a maithoe awh han.
24 His bow rested upon the strong, and the bands of his arms and his hands were loosed, by the hands of the mighty one of Jacob: thence he came forth a pastor, the stone of Israel.
Hatei ahnie licung teh a thayoun hoeh. Jakop Cathut e thaonae kut hoi thao sak e lah ao, Isarel ka khoum lungsong pawlawk lahoi yah,
25 The God of thy father shall be thy helper, and the Almighty shall bless thee with the blessings of heaven above, with the blessings of the deep that lieth beneath, with the blessings of the breasts and of the womb.
na Cathut teh nang kabawm hane hoi Athakasaipounge ni teh talai hoi kalvan yawhawi hoi sanu hoi camo im yawhawi, nang yawhawi poe hanelah tha ao sak e doeh.
26 The blessings of thy father are strengthened with the blessings of his fathers: until the desire of the everlasting hills should come; may they be upon the head of Joseph, and upon the crown of the Nazarite among his brethren.
Na pa e yawhawi na poe e ni mintoenaw e yawhawi poe e hlak a yungyoe mon pout totouh, hotnaw teh Joseph e lû dawk ao vaiteh, a hmaunawnghanaw thung hoi kapek e tami koe ao han.
27 Benjamin a ravenous wolf, in the morning shall eat the prey, and in the evening shall divide the spoil.
Benjamin teh Asui patetlah doeh ao. Amom vah a kei e moi a ca vaiteh, tangmin vah lawphno hah a thokhai han, telah ati.
28 All these are the twelve tribes of Israel: these things their father spoke to them, and he blessed every one, with their proper blessings.
Hetnaw teh Isarel miphun hlaikahni touh lah ao awh teh, hethateh a na pa ni ahnimouh koe a dei pouh e lawknaw doeh. Yawhawi a poe teh yawhawi a poe e patetlah buet touh hnukkhu buet touh yawhawi a poe.
29 And he charged them, saying: I am now going to be gathered to my people: bury me with my fathers in the double cave, which is in the field of Ephron the Hethite,
Hahoi kai teh, ka mintoenaw koe ceikhai e lah ka o han toe. Hit tami Ephron lawhmuen dawk e talungkhu, Kanaan ram e Mamre hma lae Makpelah law e talungkhu, Abraham pakawpnae phuen,
30 Over against Mambre in the land of Chanaan, which Abraham bought together with the field of Ephron the Hethite for a possession to bury in.
Hit tami Ephron koevah lawhmuen khuehoi ran e dawk ka mintoenaw koe na pakawp awh loe.
31 There they buried him, and Sara his wife: there was Isaac buried with Rebecca his wife: there also Lia doth lie buried.
Hawvah Abraham hoi a yu Sarah a pakawp awh teh, hawvah Isak hoi a yu Rebekah a pakawp awh teh, hawvah Leah a pakawp awh.
Lawhmuen hoi a thung e talungkhunaw teh Heth naw koehoi ran e doeh telah ati.
33 And when he had ended the commandments, wherewith he instructed his sons, he drew up his feet upon the bed, and died: and he was gathered to his people.
Hottelah Jakop ni a canaw lawk he a thui hnukkhu, a khok hah ikhun dawk a taphawng teh a due teh, mintoenaw koe a pakawp awh.
