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.
KAHEA aku la o Iakoba i kana mau keikikane, i aku la, E houluulu mai ia oukou iho i hai aku ai au ia oukou i na mea e hiki mai ana io oukou la i na la mahope.
2 Gather yourselves together, and hear, you sons of Jacob; and listen to Israel your father.
E houluulu mai ia oukou iho, e lohe, e na keiki a Iakoba; e hoolohe mai ia Iseraela i ko oukou makuakane.
3 Reuben, you are my firstborn, my might, and the beginning of my strength, the excellency of dignity, and the excellency of power:
E Reubena e, o oe no ka'u hiapo, o ko'u ikaika, a me ka hoomaka ana o ka ui o'u; ke kela ana i ka hanohano, ke kela ana i ka mana:
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.
He hu wale me he wai la, aole oe e kela aku, no ka mea, pii aku la oe i ka moe o kou makuakane: alaila oe i hoohaumia iho ai: pii aka la ia i kuu wahi moe.
5 Simeon and Levi are brothers; instruments of cruelty are in their habitations.
O Simeona laua o Levi, he mau hoahanau laua: aia na mea hoomainoino ma ko laua hoolimalima.
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.
Ma ko laua wahi ohumu aole e hele aku kuu uhane, ma ko laua halawai aole e hui pu ia'ku ko'u naui: no ka mea, no ko laua inaina pepehi iho la laua i ke kanaka, a no ko laua makemake oki iho la laua i ke olona wawae o ka bipi.
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.
E hoinoia ka laua inaina, no ka mea, he ino ia, a me ko laua huhu, no ka mea, he koikoi ia: e mahelehele au ia laua iloko o ka Iakoba, a e hoopuehu au in laua iloko o ka Iseraela.
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.
E Iuda e, o oe ka mea a na hoahanau ou e hoomaikai ai: o kou lima, aia no ia ma ka a-i o kou poe enemi; e kulou iho hoi na keiki a kou makuakane imua on.
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?
He keiki a ka liona o Iuda, ua pii ae oe, e kuu keiki, mai ke pio ae: kukuli iho la ia, a moe iho la me he liona kane la, a me ka liona wahine; nawai ia e hoala ae?
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.
Aole e lilo aku ke kookeo alii mai o Iuda aku, aole hoi ka mea webewehe kanawai maiwaena aku o kona mau wawae, a hiki mai ai o Silo; a ia ia ke akoakoa ana ae o na kanaka.
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:
E hikii ana i kana keikihoki i ke kumuwaina, a me ke keiki a ka hokiwahine i ke kumuwaina maikai, holoi iho la ia i kona kapa i ka waina, a me kona aahu i ke koko o ka huawaina.
12 His eyes shall be red with wine, and his teeth white with milk.
E ulaula kona mau maka i ka waina, e keokeo hoi kona mau niho i ka waiu.
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.
E noho auanei o Zebuluna ma ke kahakai; oia no ke kahakai no na moku; a e hiki aku kona palena i Sidona.
14 Issachar is a strong ass couching down between two burdens:
He hoki ikaika no o Isakara e moe ana mawaena o na halemalumalu:
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.
Ike iho la ia i ka maha he maikai ia, a i ka aina he oluolu ia, kulon iho la ia i kona hokua i ka ukana, a lilo iho la ia i kauwn e auhauia'i.
16 Dan shall judge his people, as one of the tribes of Israel.
E hooponopono o Dana i kona hanauna a kanaka, e like me kekahi o na ohana o Iseraela.
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.
He nahesa o Dana ma kapa alanui, he moolele ma ke ala; nana e nahu aku na kuekuewawae o ka lio, a e haule hope iho ka mea e hooholo ana ia ia.
18 I have waited for your salvation, O LORD.
Ua kali au i kou hoola ana, e Iehova.
19 Gad, a troop shall overcome him: but he shall overcome at the last.
O Gada, e lanakila mai ka poe kaua maluna ona, aka, e lanakila aku oia ma ka hope.
20 Out of Asher his bread shall be fat, and he shall yield royal dainties.
Mai Asera mai kana ai momona, a e haawi aku ia i na mea ono na na'lii.
21 Naphtali is a hind let loose: he gives goodly words.
O Napetali, he diawahine ia i kalaia'ku; ke hua mai nei ia i na huaolelo maikai.
22 Joseph is a fruitful bough, even a fruitful bough by a well; whose branches run over the wall:
He lala hua o Iosepa, he lala hua ma ka punawai: ke kolo ae nei na lala ona maluna o ka pa.
23 The archers have sorely grieved him, and shot at him, and hated him:
Ua hooeha nui mai, a ua pana mai hoi na mea pana ia ia, a ua inaina mai lakou ia ia.
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: )
Aka, ua mau no kona kakaka i ka ikaika, a ua hooikaikaia kona mau lima e na lima o ka Mea mana o Iakoba; (nolaila mai ke kahuhipa, ka pohaku no Iseraela; )
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:
E ke Akua o kou makua, nana oe e kokua mai; e ka Mea mana loa hoi, nana oe e hoomaikai mai i na mea maikai o ka lani iluna, a o ka hohonu ilalo, i na mea maikai o ka u, a o ka opu.
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.
Ua oi aku ka hoomaikai ana o kou makuakane maluna o na hoomaikai ana o na mauna mau, a hiki aku hoi i na mokuna o na puu kahiko loa: maluna no auanei ia o ke poo o Iosepa, a maluna hoi o ka piko o ke poo o ka mea i hookaawaleia ae mai koua poe hanauna aku.
27 Benjamin shall shred as a wolf: in the morning he shall devour the prey, and at night he shall divide the spoil.
E haehae o Beniamina me he iliohae la, i ke kakahiaka e ai iho ia i ke pio, a i ke ahiahi e puunaue ia i ka waiwai pio.
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.
O keia poe a pau, o ka poe ohana ia a Iseraela he umikumamalua: a oia ka mea a ko lakou makuakane i olelo mai ai ia lakou, a i hoomaikai mai ai ia lakou; i kela kanaka keia kanaka e like me ka hoomaikai ana, ana i hoomaikai mai ai ia lakou.
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,
Kauoha aku la oia ia lakou, i aku la, E huipu ana au me ko'u poe makua: e kanu pu hoi oukou la'u me na makua o'u ma ke ana maloko o ke kula o Eperona, no ka Heta,
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.
Ma ke ana iloko o ke kula ma Makepela, ma ke alo o Mamere, ma ka aina o Kanaana, o ke kula a Aberahama i kuai ai me Eperona, no ka Heta, i wahi ilina kupapau nona.
31 There they buried Abraham and Sarah his wife; there they buried Isaac and Rebekah his wife; and there I buried Leah.
Malaila lakou i kanu ai ia Aberahama, a me kana wahine me Sara, a malaila lakou i kanu ai ia Isaaka a me kana wahine mo Rebeka, a malaila hoi au i kanu ai ia Lea.
32 The purchase of the field and of the cave that is therein was from the children of Heth.
Ua kuaiia ke kula, a me ke ana iloko me na mamo a Heta.
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.
A pau ka Iakoba kauoha ana i kana poe keiki, opili ae la ia i kona mau wawae maluna o kahi moe, kaili aku la ke aho, a huipu ia iho la ia me kona poe makua.
