Genesis 49
1 Then Iaakob called his sonnes, and sayde, Gather your selues together, that I may tell you what shall come to you in the last dayes.
Jakov zatim sazva svoje sinove te reče: “Skupite se da vam kažem što će vas snaći u kasnije vrijeme:
2 Gather your selues together, and heare, ye sonnes of Iaakob, and hearken vnto Israel your father.
Okupite se, čujte, sinovi Jakovljevi, čujte oca svoga Izraela!
3 Reuben mine eldest sonne, thou art my might, and the beginning of my strength, the excellencie of dignitie, and the excellencie of power:
Ti Rubene, moj prvorođenče, snaga ti si moja, prvenac moje muškosti. Ističeš, se ponosom, snagom se ističeš,
4 Thou wast light as water: thou shalt not be excellent, because thou wentest vp to thy fathers bed: then diddest thou defile my bed, thy dignitie is gone.
no, poput vode nabujao, nećeš više imati prvenstva, jer na ležaj oca svog se pope, moj tad oskvrnu krevet.
5 Simeon and Leui, brethren in euill, the instruments of crueltie are in their habitations.
Šimun i Levi braća su prava! Mačevi im oruđe nasilja.
6 Into their secret let not my soule come: my glory, be not thou ioyned with their assembly: for in their wrath they slew a man, and in their selfe will they digged downe a wall.
Na njihova vijećanja ja ne silazio, u njihovim zborovima udjela ne imao! U srdžbi su svojoj ljude ubijali; u obijesti bikove sakatili.
7 Cursed be their wrath, for it was fierce, and their rage, for it was cruell: I will deuide them in Iaakob, and scatter them in Israel.
Prokleta im srdžba, jer je prežestoka! Prokleta im obijest, jer je preokrutna! Razdijelit ću ih po Jakovu, Izraelom raspršiti.
8 Thou Iudah, thy brethre shall praise thee: thine hande shalbe in the necke of thine enemies: thy fathers sonnes shall bowe downe vnto thee.
Judo! Tvoja braća slavit će te; svagda ti je šaka na šiji dušmana, sinci oca tvoga tebi će se klanjat.
9 Iudah, as a Lions whelpe shalt thou come vp from the spoyle, my sonne. He shall lye downe and couche as a Lion, and as a Lionesse: Who shall stirre him vp?
Judo, laviću mali! Plijenom si se, sine, udebljao; poput lava, poput lavice legao potrbuške! Tko bi ga dražiti smio?
10 The scepter shall not depart from Iudah, nor a Lawegiuer from betweene his feete, vntill Shiloh come, and the people shall be gathered vnto him.
Od Jude žezlo se kraljevsko, ni palica vladalačka od nogu njegovih udaljiti neće dok ne dođe onaj kome pripada - kome će se narodi pokoriti.
11 He shall binde his Asse foale vnto ye vine, and his Asses colte vnto the best vine. hee shall wash his garment in wine, and his cloke in the blood of grapes.
Svog magarca za lozu privezuje, mlado magarice svoje za čokot. U vinu on kupa svoju odjeću svoju halju u krvi od grožđa.
12 His eyes shalbe red with wine, and his teeth white with milke.
Oči su mu od vina mutne, zubi bjelji od mlijeka.
13 Zebulun shall dwell by the sea side, and he shalbe an hauen for shippes: and his border shalbe vnto Zidon.
Zebulun će stanovati uz obalu morsku, luka spasa bit će brodarima, uz bok njegov Sidon će ležati.
14 Issachar shalbe a strong asse, couching downe betweene two burdens:
Jisakar je koščat magarac polegao među ogradama.
15 And he shall see that rest is good, and that the land is pleasant, and he shall bow his shoulder to beare, and shalbe subiect vnto tribute.
Vidje da je odmor ugodan, a zemlja lijepa, te leđa svoja pod teret podmetnu i na tlaku pristade.
16 Dan shall iudge his people as one of the tribes of Israel.
Dan će narod svoj suditi kao svako pleme Izraelovo.
17 Dan shall be a serpent by the way, an adder by the path, byting the horse heeles, so that his rider shall fall backward.
Nek' Dan zmija bude na putu, guja pokraj staze što će konja za zglob ujesti, i njegov konjik nauznak će pasti.
18 O Lord, I haue waited for thy saluation.
U spas tvoj se, Jahve, uzdam!
19 Gad, an hoste of men shall ouercome him, but he shall ouercome at the last.
Gada će pljačkat razbojnici, pljačkom će im za petama biti.
20 Concerning Asher, his bread shalbe fat, and he shall giue pleasures for a king.
U Ašera bit će hrane, poslastica za kraljeve.
21 Naphtali shalbe a hinde let goe, giuing goodly wordes.
Naftali je košuta lakonoga koja krasnu lanad mladi.
22 Ioseph shalbe a fruitefull bough, euen a fruitful bough by the well side: the small boughs shall runne vpon the wall.
Josip je stablo plodno, plodno stablo kraj izvora, grane svoje grana preko zida.
23 And the archers grieued him, and shotte against him and hated him.
Strijelci njega saletjeli, strijeljali ga, opljačkali.
24 But his bowe abode strong, and the hands of his armes were strengthened, by the handes of the mighty God of Iaakob, of whom was the feeder appointed, by the stone of Israel,
Ali luk mu čvrst ostaje, mišice mu ojačale, rukom Jakog Jakovljeva, imenom Pastira, Stijene Izraela,
25 Euen by the God of thy father, who shall helpe thee, and by the almightie, who shall blesse thee with heauenly blessinges from aboue, with blessings of the deepe, that lyeth beneath, with blessings of the brestes, and of the wombe.
Bogom, Ocem tvojim, koji ti pomaže, Svesilnim koji te blagoslivlje blagoslovom ozgo sa nebesa, blagoslovom ozdo iz dubina, blagoslovom iz svih prsa, iz svih utroba!
26 The blessings of thy father shalbe stronger then the blessings of mine elders: vnto the ende of the hilles of the worlde they shall be on the head of Ioseph, and on the top of the head of him that was separate from his brethren.
Blagoslovom klasja i cvjetova, blagoslovom drevnih brda, želja vječnih brežuljaka - nek' se oni spuste na Josipa, između braće posvećenog!
27 Beniamin shall rauine as a wolfe: in the morning he shall deuoure the pray, and at night he shall deuide the spoyle.
Benjamin je vuk grabežljivi, lovinu on jutrom jede, a navečer plijen dijeli.”
28 All these are the twelue tribes of Israel, and thus their father spake vnto them, and blessed them: euery one of them blessed hee with a seuerall blessing.
Sve su to Izraelova plemena - dvanaest ih na broj - i to im je otac rekao kad ih je blagoslivljao; svakoga je od njih blagoslovio njegovim blagoslovom.
29 And he charged them and sayd vnto them, I am ready to be gathered vnto my people: burie mee with my fathers in the caue, that is in the fielde of Ephron the Hittite,
Poslije toga im dade ovu naredbu: “Naskoro ću se pridružiti svojim precima. Sahranite me kraj mojih otaca,
30 In the caue that is in the field of Machpelah besides Mamre in the land of Canaan: which caue Abraham bought with the fielde of Ephron the Hittite for a possession to burie in.
u spilji što se nalazi na polju Efrona, Hetita, u spilji na polju Makpeli, nasuprot Mamri, u zemlji kanaanskoj. To je ona koju je Abraham kupio s poljem od Hetita Efrona za mjesto sahranjivanja.
31 There they buried Abraham and Sarah his wife: there they buryed Izhak and Rebekah his wife: and there I buried Leah.
Ondje je sahranjen Abraham i njegova žena Sara; sahranjeni su ondje Izak i njegova žena Rebeka; ondje sam ja sahranio Leu.
32 The purchase of the fielde and the caue that is therein, was bought of the children of Heth.
Polje i spilja na njemu kupljeni su od Hetita.”
33 Thus Iaakob made an end of giuing charge to his sonnes, and plucked vp his feete into the bed and gaue vp the ghost, and was gathered to his people.
Kad je Jakov tako naputio svoje sinove, povuče noge natrag na postelju te izdahnu - pridruži se svojim precima.
