Genesis 49
1 And Jacob called unto his sons, and said, Gather yourselves together, that I may tell you [that] which shall befall you in the last days.
Poslije sazva Jakov sinove svoje i reèe: skupite se da vam javim šta æe vam biti do pošljetka.
2 Gather yourselves together, and hear, ye sons of Jacob; and hearken unto Israel your father.
Skupite se i poslušajte, sinovi Jakovljevi, poslušajte Izrailja oca svojega.
3 Reuben, thou [art] my firstborn, my might, and the beginning of my strength, the excellency of dignity, and the excellency of power:
Ruvime, ti si prvenac moj, krjepost moja i poèetak sile moje; prvi gospodstvom i prvi snagom.
4 Unstable as water, thou shalt not excel; because thou wentest up to thy father’s bed; then defiledst thou [it: ] he went up to my couch.
Navro si kao voda; neæeš biti prvi; jer si stao na postelju oca svojega i oskvrnio je legav na nju.
5 Simeon and Levi [are] brethren; instruments of cruelty [are in] their habitations.
Simeun i Levije, braæa, maèevi su im oružje nepravdi.
6 O my soul, come not thou into their secret; unto their assembly, mine honour, be not thou united: for in their anger they slew a man, and in their selfwill they digged down a wall.
U tajne njihove da ne ulazi duša moja, sa zborom njihovijem da se ne sastavlja slava moja; jer u gnjevu svojem pobiše ljude, i za svoje veselje pokidaše volove.
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.
Proklet da je gnjev njihov, što bješe nagao, i ljutina njihova, što bješe žestoka; razdijeliæu ih po Jakovu, i rasuæu ih po Izrailju.
8 Judah, thou [art he] whom thy brethren shall praise: thy hand [shall be] in the neck of thine enemies; thy father’s children shall bow down before thee.
Juda, tebe æe hvaliti braæa tvoja, a ruka æe ti biti za vratom neprijateljima tvojim, i klanjaæe ti se sinovi oca tvojega.
9 Judah [is] a lion’s whelp: from the prey, my son, thou art gone up: he stooped down, he couched as a lion, and as an old lion; who shall rouse him up?
Laviæu Juda! s plijena si se vratio, sine moj; spusti se i leže kao lav i kao ljuti lav; ko æe ga probuditi?
10 The sceptre shall not depart from Judah, nor a lawgiver from between his feet, until Shiloh come; and unto him [shall] the gathering of the people [be].
Palica vladalaèka neæe se odvojiti od Jude niti od nogu njegovijeh onaj koji postavlja zakon, dokle ne doðe onaj kome pripada, i njemu æe se pokoravati narodi.
11 Binding his foal unto the vine, and his ass’s colt unto the choice vine; he washed his garments in wine, and his clothes in the blood of grapes:
Veže za èokot magare svoje, i za plemenitu lozu mlade od magarice svoje; u vinu pere haljinu svoju i ogrtaè svoj u soku od grožða.
12 His eyes [shall be] red with wine, and his teeth white with milk.
Oèi mu se crvene od vina i zubi bijele od mlijeka.
13 Zebulun shall dwell at the haven of the sea; and he [shall be] for an haven of ships; and his border [shall be] unto Zidon.
Zavulon æe živjeti pokraj mora i gdje pristaju laðe, a meða æe mu biti do Sidona.
14 Issachar [is] a strong ass couching down between two burdens:
Isahar je magarac jak u kostima, koji leži u toru,
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 unto tribute.
I vidjev da je poèivanje dobro i da je zemlja mila, sagnuæe ramena svoja da nosi, i plaæaæe danak.
16 Dan shall judge his people, as one of the tribes of Israel.
Dan æe suditi svojemu narodu, kao jedno izmeðu plemena Izrailjevih.
17 Dan shall be a serpent by the way, an adder in the path, that biteth the horse heels, so that his rider shall fall backward.
Dan æe biti zmija na putu i guja na stazi, koja ujeda konja za kièicu, te pada konjik nauznako.
18 I have waited for thy salvation, O LORD.
Gospode, tebe èekam da me izbaviš.
19 Gad, a troop shall overcome him: but he shall overcome at the last.
A Gad, njega æe vojska svladati; ali æe najposlije on nadvladati.
20 Out of Asher his bread [shall be] fat, and he shall yield royal dainties.
U Asira æe biti obilata hrana, i on æe davati slasti carske.
21 Naphtali [is] a hind let loose: he giveth goodly words.
Neftalim je košuta puštena, i govoriæe lijepe rijeèi.
22 Joseph [is] a fruitful bough, [even] a fruitful bough by a well; [whose] branches run over the wall:
Josif je rodna grana, rodna grana kraj izvora, kojoj se ogranci raširiše svrh zida.
23 The archers have sorely grieved him, and shot [at him], and hated him:
Ako ga i ucvijeliše ljuto i strijeljaše na nj, i biše mu neprijatelji strijelci,
24 But his bow abode in strength, and the arms of his hands were made strong by the hands of the mighty [God] of Jacob; (from thence [is] the shepherd, the stone of Israel: )
Opet osta jak luk njegov i ojaèaše mišice ruku njegovijeh od ruku jakoga Boga Jakovljeva, odakle posta pastir, kamen Izrailju,
25 [Even] by the God of thy father, who shall help thee; and by the Almighty, who shall bless thee with blessings of heaven above, blessings of the deep that lieth under, blessings of the breasts, and of the womb:
Od silnoga Boga oca tvojega, koji æe ti pomagati, i od svemoguæega, koji æe te blagosloviti blagoslovima ozgo s neba, blagoslovima ozdo iz bezdana, blagoslovima od dojaka i od materice.
26 The blessings of thy father have prevailed above the blessings of my progenitors unto 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 brethren.
Blagoslovi oca tvojega nadvisiše blagoslove mojih starijeh svrh brda vjeènijeh, neka budu nad glavom Josifovom i nad tjemenom odvojenoga izmeðu braæe.
27 Benjamin shall ravin [as] a wolf: in the morning he shall devour the prey, and at night he shall divide the spoil.
Venijamin je vuk grabljivi, jutrom jede lov, a veèerom dijeli plijen.
28 All these [are] the twelve tribes of Israel: and this [is it] that their father spake unto them, and blessed them; every one according to his blessing he blessed them.
Ovo su dvanaest plemena Izrailjevih, i ovo im otac izgovori kad ih blagoslovi, svako blagoslovom njegovijem blagoslovi ih.
29 And he charged them, and said unto them, I am to be gathered unto my people: bury me with my fathers in the cave that [is] in the field of Ephron the Hittite,
Potom im zapovjedi i reèe im: kad se priberem k rodu svojemu, pogrebite me kod otaca mojih u peæini koja je na njivi Efrona Hetejina,
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 buryingplace.
U peæini koja je na njivi Makpelskoj prema Mamriji u zemlji Hananskoj, koju kupi Avram s njivom u Efrona Hetejina da ima svoj grob.
31 There they buried Abraham and Sarah his wife; there they buried Isaac and Rebekah his wife; and there I buried Leah.
Ondje pogreboše Avrama i Saru ženu njegovu, ondje pogreboše Isaka i Reveku ženu njegovu, i ondje pogreboh Liju.
32 The purchase of the field and of the cave that [is] therein [was] from the children of Heth.
A kupljena je njiva i peæina na njoj u sinova Hetovijeh.
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 unto his people.
A kad izgovori Jakov zapovjesti sinovima svojim, diže noge svoje na postelju, i umrije, i pribran bi k rodu svojemu.
