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.
Jakob je svojim sinovom zaklical in rekel: »Zberite se skupaj, da vam bom lahko povedal to, kar vas bo doletelo v poslednjih dneh.
2 Gather yourselves together, and hear, you sons of Jacob; and listen to Israel your father.
Zberite se skupaj in poslušajte, vi, Jakobovi sinovi in prisluhnite Izraelu, svojemu očetu.
3 Reuben, you are my firstborn, my might, and the beginning of my strength, the excellency of dignity, and the excellency of power:
Ruben, ti si moj prvorojenec, moja mogočnost in začetek moje moči, odličnost dostojanstva in odličnost moči,
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.
nestabilen kakor voda, ti se ne boš odlikoval. Ker si odšel k postelji svojega očeta, takrat si jo omadeževal. Dvignil se je k mojemu ležišču.
5 Simeon and Levi are brothers; instruments of cruelty are in their habitations.
Simeon in Lévi sta brata, sredstva krutosti so v njunih prebivališčih.
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.
Oh moja duša, ne pridi v njuno skrivnost, v njun zbor, moja čast, ne bodi združena, kajti v svoji jezi sta usmrtila človeka in v svoji svojevoljnosti sta spodkopala zid.
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.
Prekleta bodi njuna jeza, kajti bila je kruta in njun srd, kajti bil je neizprosen. Razdelil ju bom v Jakobu in razkropil v Izraelu.
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.
Juda, ti si ta, ki ga bodo tvoji bratje hvalili. Tvoja roka bo na vratu tvojih sovražnikov, otroci tvojega očeta se bodo priklanjali pred teboj.
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?
Juda je levji mladič. Od plena, moj sin, si se dvignil. Sklonil se je, ležal kakor lev in kakor star lev; kdo ga bo prebudil?
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.
Žezlo ne bo odšlo od Juda niti palica zakona izmed njegovih stopal, dokler ne pride Šilo in k njemu bo zbiranje ljudstva.
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:
Privezujoč svojega oslička k trti in svojega osličjega žrebeta k izbrani trti, je svoje obleke opral v vinu in svoja oblačila v krvi grozdnih jagod.
12 His eyes shall be red with wine, and his teeth white with milk.
Njegove oči bodo rdeče od vina in njegovi zobje beli od mleka.
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.
Zábulon bo prebival pri morskem zavetju in bo za zavetje ladjam in njegova meja bo do Sidóna.
14 Issachar is a strong ass couching down between two burdens:
Isahár je močan osel, počivajoč med dvema bremenoma.
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.
Videl je, da je bil počitek dober in da je bila dežela prijetna in sklonil svojo ramo, da prenaša in postal služabnik davku.
16 Dan shall judge his people, as one of the tribes of Israel.
Dan bo sodil svoje ljudstvo kakor enega izmed Izraelovih rodov.
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 bo kača ob poti, gad na stezi, ki piči konjska kopita, tako da bo njegov jezdec padel vznak.
18 I have waited for your salvation, O LORD.
Pričakoval sem tvojo rešitev duše, oh Gospod.
19 Gad, a troop shall overcome him: but he shall overcome at the last.
Gad, krdelo ga bo premagalo, toda nazadnje bo on premagal.
20 Out of Asher his bread shall be fat, and he shall yield royal dainties.
Iz Aserja bo njegov kruh zajeten in oskrboval bo kraljeve slaščice.
21 Naphtali is a hind let loose: he gives goodly words.
Neftáli je spuščena košuta. On daje ljubke besede.
22 Joseph is a fruitful bough, even a fruitful bough by a well; whose branches run over the wall:
Jožef je rodovitna veja, rodovitna veja pri vodnjaku, čigar mladike segajo preko zidu.
23 The archers have sorely grieved him, and shot at him, and hated him:
Lokostrelci so ga boleče užalostili, streljali nanj in ga sovražili.
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: )
Toda njegov lok je ostal v moči in lakti njegovih rok so bili okrepljeni z rokami mogočnega Jakobovega Boga (od tam je pastir, Izraelov kamen),
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:
celó z Bogom svojih očetov, ki ti bo pomagal in z Vsemogočnim, ki te bo blagoslovil z blagoslovi z neba od zgoraj, blagoslovi iz globine, ki leži spodaj, blagoslovi prsi in maternice.
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.
Blagoslovi tvojega očeta so prevladali nad blagoslovi mojih prednikov do skrajne meje večnih hribov. Ti bodo na Jožefovi glavi in na têmenu tistega, ki je bil ločen od svojih bratov.
27 Benjamin shall shred as a wolf: in the morning he shall devour the prey, and at night he shall divide the spoil.
Benjamin bo ropal kakor volk. Zjutraj bo požrl plen, ponoči pa bo razdelil ukradeno blago.«
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.
Vsi ti so dvanajsteri Izraelovi rodovi in to je to, kar jim je njihov oče govoril in jih blagoslovil; vsakega glede na svoj blagoslov jih je blagoslovil.
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,
Zapovedal jim je in jim rekel: »Jaz bom zbran k svojemu ljudstvu. Pokopljite me z mojimi očeti v votlini, ki je na polju Hetejca Efróna,
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.
v votlini, ki je na polju Mahpéli, ki je pred Mamrejem, v kánaanski deželi, ki jo je Abraham kupil s poljem Hetejca Efróna za posest in grobišče.
31 There they buried Abraham and Sarah his wife; there they buried Isaac and Rebekah his wife; and there I buried Leah.
Tam so pokopali Abrahama in njegovo ženo Saro, tam so pokopali Izaka in njegovo ženo Rebeko, in tam sem pokopal Leo.
32 The purchase of the field and of the cave that is therein was from the children of Heth.
Nakup polja in votline, ki je na njem, je bil od Hetovih otrok.«
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.
Ko je Jakob naredil konec zapovedovanju svojim sinovom, je svoja stopala dvignil v posteljo, izročil duha in bil zbran k svojemu ljudstvu.
