Genesis 49
1 And Jacob called to his sons, and said, Gather yourselves together, that I may tell you that which 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, you sons of Jacob; and listen to Israel your father.
Nangmouh Jakop canaw kamkhueng awh nateh, na pa Isarel e lawk thai awh haw.
3 Reuben, you are my firstborn, my might, and the beginning of my strength, the excellency of dignity, and the excellency of power:
Reuben, nang teh ka ca camin, ka hnosakthainae, ka thaonae, aluepaw, karasangpoung hoi a tha kaawm poung e lah na o.
4 Unstable as water, you shall not excel; because you went up to your father’s bed; then defiled you it: he went up to my 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 are brothers; instruments of cruelty are in their habitations.
Simeon hoi Levih teh hmaunawngha roi doeh. Lungthin ponae senehmaica ao roinae hmuen koe ao roi.
6 O my soul, come not you into their secret; to their assembly, my honor, be not you united: for in their anger they slew a man, and in their self-will they dig down 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 anger, for it was fierce; and their wrath, for it was cruel: I will divide them in Jacob, and 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 Judah, you are he whom your brothers shall praise: your hand shall be in the neck of your enemies; your father’s children shall bow down before you.
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 Judah is a lion’s whelp: from the prey, my son, you are gone up: he stooped down, he couched as a lion, and as an old lion; who shall rouse him up?
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 scepter shall not depart from Judah, nor a lawgiver from between his feet, until Shiloh come; and to him shall the gathering of the people be.
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 Binding his foal to the vine, and his ass’s colt to the choice vine; he washed his garments in wine, and his clothes in the blood of grapes:
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 shall be red with wine, and his teeth white with milk.
A mit teh misurtui hlak a paling teh, a hâ teh sanutui hlak a pangaw.
13 Zebulun shall dwell at the haven of the sea; and he shall be for an haven of ships; and his border shall be to Zidon.
Zebulun teh long kâhatnae talî teng kho a sak han. Long kâhatnae hmuen lah ao han. A khori teh Zidon totouh han.
14 Issachar is a strong ass couching down between two burdens:
Issakhar teh mon rahak ka tabawk e a tha kaawm poung e doeh.
15 And he saw that rest was good, and the land that it was pleasant; and bowed his shoulder to bear, and became a servant to 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, as one of the tribes of Israel.
Dan ni a taminaw hah Isarel miphun rahak vah miphun buet touh patetlah lawkceng han.
17 Dan shall be a serpent by the way, an adder in the path, that bites the horse heels, so that his rider shall 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 have waited for your salvation, O LORD.
Oe BAWIPA, na rungngangnae teh ouk ka ngaihawi.
19 Gad, a troop shall overcome him: but he shall overcome at the last.
Gad teh tarannaw ni tuk vaiteh, ahni ni hai bout a tuk van han.
20 Out of Asher his bread shall be fat, and he shall yield royal dainties.
Asher teh canei koelah tawnta vaiteh, siangpahrang canei hanlah a tâco sak han.
21 Naphtali is a hind let loose: he gives goodly words.
Naphtali teh sayuk patetlah dawkcawk vaiteh, lawk kahawi a dei han.
22 Joseph is a fruitful bough, even a fruitful bough by a well; whose branches run over the wall:
Joseph teh a paw kara e a kang lah ao teh, a kangnaw teh rapan naw dawk a yam han.
23 The archers have sorely grieved him, and shot at him, and hated him:
Licung kathoumnaw ni puenghoi a lungmathoe sak awh han. A ka awh teh a maithoe awh han.
24 But his bow stayed in strength, and the arms of his hands were made strong by the hands of the mighty God of Jacob; (from there is the shepherd, 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 Even by the God of your father, who shall help you; and by the Almighty, who shall bless you with blessings of heaven above, blessings of the deep that lies under, 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 your father have prevailed above the blessings of my progenitors to the utmost bound of the everlasting hills: they shall be on the head of Joseph, and on the crown of the head of him that was separate from his brothers.
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 shall shred as a wolf: in the morning he shall devour the prey, and at night he 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: and this is it that their father spoke to them, and blessed them; every one according to his blessing he blessed them.
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, and said to them, I am to be gathered to my people: bury me with my fathers in the cave that is in the field of Ephron the Hittite,
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 In the cave that is in the field of Machpelah, which is before Mamre, in the land of Canaan, which Abraham bought with the field of Ephron the Hittite for a possession of a burial plot.
Hit tami Ephron koevah lawhmuen khuehoi ran e dawk ka mintoenaw koe na pakawp awh loe.
31 There they buried Abraham and Sarah his wife; there they buried Isaac and Rebekah his wife; and there I buried Leah.
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.
32 The purchase of the field and of the cave that is therein was from the children of Heth.
Lawhmuen hoi a thung e talungkhunaw teh Heth naw koehoi ran e doeh telah ati.
33 And when Jacob had made an end of commanding his sons, he gathered up his feet into the bed, and yielded up the ghost, and 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.
