Genesis 49
1 And Jacob called his sons, and said to them,
Nígbà náà ni Jakọbu ránṣẹ́ pe àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀, ó sì wí pé, “Ẹ kó ara yín jọ pọ̀, kí n le è sọ ohun tí yóò ṣẹlẹ̀ ní ọjọ́ iwájú fún un yín.
2 Assemble yourselves, that I may tell you what shall happen to you in the last days. Gather yourselves together, and hear me, sons of Jacob; hear Israel, hear your father.
“Ẹ kó ara yín jọ pọ̀, kí ẹ sì tẹ́tí, ẹ̀yin ọmọ Jakọbu; ẹ fetí sí Israẹli baba yín.
3 Ruben, you [are] my firstborn, you my strength, and the first of my children, hard to be endured, [hard and] self-willed.
“Reubeni, ìwọ ni àkọ́bí mi, agbára mi, ìpilẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ipá mi, títayọ ní ọlá àti títayọ ní agbára.
4 You were insolent like water, burst not forth with violence, for you went up to the bed of your father; then you defiled the couch, whereupon you went up.
Ẹni ríru bí omi Òkun, ìwọ kì yóò tayọ mọ́, nítorí pé ìwọ gun ibùsùn baba rẹ, lórí àkéte mi, ìwọ sì bà á jẹ́ (ìwọ bá ọ̀kan nínú àwọn aya baba rẹ lòpọ̀).
5 Symeon and Levi, brethren, accomplished the injustice of their cutting off.
“Simeoni àti Lefi jẹ́ arákùnrin— idà wọn jẹ́ ohun èlò ogun alágbára.
6 Let not my soul come into their counsel, and let not mine inward parts contend in their conspiracy, for in their wrath they killed men, and in their passion they houghed a bull.
Kí ọkàn mi má ṣe ni àṣepọ̀ pẹ̀lú wọn, kí n má sì ṣe dúró níbí ìpéjọpọ̀ wọn, nítorí wọ́n ti pa àwọn ènìyàn ní ìbínú wọn, wọ́n sì da àwọn màlúù lóró bí ó ti wù wọ́n.
7 Cursed be their wrath, for it was willful, and their anger, for it was cruel: I will divide them in Jacob, and scatter them in Israel.
Ìfibú ni ìbínú wọn nítorí tí ó gbóná púpọ̀, àti fún ìrunú wọn nítorí tí ó kún fún ìkà! Èmi yóò tú wọn ká ní Jakọbu, èmi ó sì fọ́n wọn ká ní Israẹli.
8 Juda, your brethren have praised you, and your hands shall be on the back of your enemies; your father's sons shall do you reverence.
“Juda, àwọn arákùnrin rẹ yóò yìn ọ, ọwọ́ rẹ yóò wà ní ọrùn àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ, àwọn ọmọkùnrin baba rẹ yóò foríbalẹ̀ fún ọ.
9 Juda is a lion's whelp: from the tender plant, my son, you are gone up, having couched you lie as a lion, and as a whelp; who shall stir him up?
Ọmọ kìnnìún ni ọ́, ìwọ Juda, o darí láti igbó ọdẹ, ọmọ mi. Bí i kìnnìún, o ba mọ́lẹ̀, o sì sùn sílẹ̀ bí i abo kìnnìún, ta ni ó tó bẹ́ẹ̀, kí o lé e dìde?
10 A ruler shall not fail from Juda, nor a prince from his loins, until there come the things stored up for him; and he is the expectation of nations.
Ọ̀pá oyè kì yóò kúrò ní Juda bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ọ̀pá-ìṣàkóso kì yóò kúrò láàrín ẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀, títí tí Ṣilo tí ó ni í yóò fi dé, tí gbogbo àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè yóò máa wárí fún un.
11 Binding his foal to the vine, and the foal of his ass to the branch [of it], he shall wash his robe in wine, and his garment in the blood of the grape.
Yóò má so ọmọ ẹṣin rẹ̀ mọ́ igi àjàrà, àti ọmọ kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ rẹ̀ mọ́ ẹ̀ka tí ó dára jù. Yóò fọ aṣọ rẹ̀ nínú wáìnì àti ẹ̀wù rẹ̀ nínú omi-pupa ti èso àjàrà.
12 His eyes shall be more cheering than wine, and his teeth whiter than milk.
Ojú rẹ̀ yóò rẹ̀ dòdò ju wáìnì lọ, eyín rẹ yóò sì funfun ju omi-ọyàn lọ.
13 Zabulon shall dwell on the coast, and he [shall be] by a haven of ships, and shall extend to Sidon.
“Sebuluni yóò máa gbé ní etí Òkun, yóò sì jẹ́ èbúté fún ọkọ̀ ojú omi, agbègbè rẹ yóò tàn ká títí dé Sidoni.
14 Issachar has desired that which is good; resting between the inheritances.
“Isakari jẹ́ kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ alágbára tí ó dùbúlẹ̀ láàrín agbo àgùntàn.
15 And having seen the resting place that it was good, and the land that it was fertile, he subjected his shoulder to labor, and became a husbandman.
Nígbà tí ó bá rí bí ibi ìsinmi òun ti dára tó, àti bí ilẹ̀ rẹ̀ ti ní ìdẹ̀ra tó, yóò tẹ èjìká rẹ̀ ba láti ru àjàgà, yóò sì fi ara rẹ̀ fún iṣẹ́ ipá.
16 Dan shall judge his people, as one tribe too in Israel.
“Dani yóò ṣe ìdájọ́ àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọ̀kan nínú àwọn ẹ̀yà Israẹli.
17 And let Dan be a serpent in the way, besetting the path, biting the heel of the horse (and the rider shall fall backward),
Dani yóò jẹ́ ejò ni pópónà àti paramọ́lẹ̀ ní ẹ̀bá ọ̀nà, tí ó bu ẹṣin jẹ ní ẹsẹ̀, kí ẹni tí ń gùn ún bá à le è ṣubú sẹ́yìn.
18 waiting for the salvation of the Lord.
“Mo ń dúró de ìtúsílẹ̀ rẹ, Olúwa.
19 Gad, a plundering troop shall plunder him; but he shall plunder him, [pursuing him] closely.
“Ẹgbẹ́ ogun àwọn ẹlẹ́ṣin yóò kọlu Gadi, ṣùgbọ́n yóò kọlu wọ́n ní gìgísẹ̀ wọn.
20 Aser, his bread [shall be] fat; and he shall yield dainties to princes.
“Oúnjẹ Aṣeri yóò dára; yóò ṣe àsè tí ó yẹ fún ọba.
21 Nephthalim is a spreading stem, bestowing beauty on its fruit.
“Naftali yóò jẹ́ abo àgbọ̀nrín tí a tú sílẹ̀ tí ó ń bí ọmọ dáradára.
22 Joseph is a son increased; my dearly loved son is increased; my youngest son, turn to me.
“Josẹfu jẹ́ àjàrà eléso, àjàrà eléso ní etí odò, tí ẹ̀ka rẹ̀ gun orí odi.
23 Against whom men taking evil counsel reproached [him], and the archers pressed hard upon him.
Pẹ̀lú ìkorò, àwọn tafàtafà dojú ìjà kọ ọ́, wọ́n tafà sí í pẹ̀lú ìkanra.
24 But their bow and arrows were mightily consumed, and the sinews of their arms were slackened by the hand of the mighty one of Jacob; thence is he that strengthened Israel from the God of your father;
Ṣùgbọ́n ọrun rẹ̀ dúró ni agbára, ọwọ́ agbára rẹ̀ ni a sì mu lára le, nítorí ọwọ́ alágbára Jakọbu, nítorí olùtọ́jú àti aláàbò àpáta Israẹli,
25 and my God helped you, and he blessed you with the blessing of heaven from above, and the blessing of the earth possessing all things, because of the blessing of the breasts and of the womb,

26 the blessings of your father and your mother—it has prevailed above the blessing of the lasting mountains, and beyond the blessings of the everlasting hills; they shall be upon the head of Joseph, and upon the head of the brothers of whom he took the lead.
Ìbùkún baba rẹ pọ̀ púpọ̀ ju ìbùkún àwọn òkè ńlá ìgbàanì, ju ẹ̀bùn ńlá àwọn òkè láéláé. Jẹ́ kí gbogbo èyí sọ̀kalẹ̀ sí orí Josẹfu, lé ìpéǹpéjú ọmọ-aládé láàrín arákùnrin rẹ̀.
27 Benjamin, as a ravening wolf, shall eat still in the morning, and at evening he gives food.
“Benjamini jẹ́ ìkookò tí ó burú; ní òwúrọ̀ ni ó jẹ ẹran ọdẹ rẹ, ní àṣálẹ́, ó pín ìkógun.”
28 All these [are] the twelve sons of Jacob; and their father spoke these words to them, and he blessed them; he blessed each of them according to his blessing.
Gbogbo ìwọ̀nyí ni àwọn ẹ̀yà Israẹli méjìlá, èyí sì ni ohun tí baba wọn sọ fún wọn nígbà tí ó súre fún wọn, tí ó sì fún ẹnìkọ̀ọ̀kan ní ìbùkún tí ó tọ́ sí i.
29 And he said to them, I am added to my people; you shall bury me with my fathers in the cave, which is in the field of Ephron the Chettite,
Nígbà náà ni ó fún wọn ní àwọn ìlànà yìí, “Ọjọ́ ikú mi kù fẹ́ẹ́rẹ́. Kí ẹ sin mí sí ibojì pẹ̀lú àwọn baba mi ní inú àpáta ní ilẹ̀ Hiti ará Efroni.
30 in the double cave which is opposite Mambre, in the land of Chanaan, the cave which Abraam bought of Ephron the Chettite, for a possession of a sepulchre.
Ihò àpáta tí ó wà ní ilẹ̀ Makpela, nítòsí Mamre ní Kenaani, èyí tí Abrahamu rà gẹ́gẹ́ bí ilẹ̀ ìsìnkú lọ́wọ́ Efroni ará Hiti pẹ̀lú ilẹ̀ rẹ̀.
31 There they buried Abraam and Sarrha his wife; there they buried Isaac, and Rebecca his wife; there they buried Lea;
Níbẹ̀ ni a sin Abrahamu àti aya rẹ̀ Sara sí, níbẹ̀ ni a sin Isaaki àti Rebeka aya rẹ̀ sí, níbẹ̀ sì ni mo sìnkú Lea sí.
32 in the portion of the field, and of the cave that was in it, [purchased] of the sons of Chet.
Ilẹ̀ náà àti ihò àpáta tí ó wà nínú rẹ̀ ni a rà lọ́wọ́ ará Hiti.”
33 And Jacob ceased giving charges to his sons; and having lifted up his feet on the bed, he died, and was gathered to his people.
Nígbà tí Jakọbu ti pàṣẹ yìí fún àwọn ọmọ rẹ̀, ó gbé ẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀ sókè sórí ibùsùn, ó sì kú, a sì ko jọ pọ̀ mọ́ àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀.
