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.
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, ye sons of Jacob; and hearken unto Israel your father.
Nangmouh Jakop canaw kamkhueng awh nateh, na pa Isarel e lawk thai awh haw.
3 Reuben, thou art my first-born, my might, and the beginning of my strength; the excellency of dignity, and the excellency of power [should be thine].
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, thou shalt not have the excellence; because thou wentest up to thy father's bed; then defiledst thou the one who ascended 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 brethren; weapons of violence are their swords.
Simeon hoi Levih teh hmaunawngha roi doeh. Lungthin ponae senehmaica ao roinae hmuen koe ao roi.
6 Into their secret shall my soul not come; unto their assembly my spirit shall not be united; for in their anger they slew the man, and in their self-will they lamed the ox.
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 is fierce; and their wrath, for it is 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, thou art the one thy brothers shall praise, thy hand shall be on the neck of thy enemies; thy father's children shall bow down unto thee.
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 Like a lion's whelp, O Judah, from the prey, my son, thou risest: he stoopeth down, he croucheth as a lion, and as a lioness, 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 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.
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 He bindeth unto the vine his foal, and to the vine-branch his ass's colt; he washeth his garments in wine, and in the blood of grapes his clothes;
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 from wine, and his teeth white from milk.
A mit teh misurtui hlak a paling teh, a hâ teh sanutui hlak a pangaw.
13 Zebulun shall dwell at the margin of the seas; and he shall be at the haven of ships; and his border shall be near 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-boned ass, couching down between the stables.
Issakhar teh mon rahak ka tabawk e a tha kaawm poung e doeh.
15 And when he saw the resting-place that it was good, and the land that it was pleasant, he bent his shoulder to bear, and became a servant unto 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 on the path, that biteth the horse in the heels, so that his rider falleth 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 For thy salvation, I hope, O Lord.
Oe BAWIPA, na rungngangnae teh ouk ka ngaihawi.
19 Gad, troops will band against him; but he shall wound their heel.
Gad teh tarannaw ni tuk vaiteh, ahni ni hai bout a tuk van han.
20 Out of Asher cometh fat bread, and he shall yield royal dainties.
Asher teh canei koelah tawnta vaiteh, siangpahrang canei hanlah a tâco sak han.
21 Naphtali is [like] a fleet hind; he bringeth pleasant words.
Naphtali teh sayuk patetlah dawkcawk vaiteh, lawk kahawi a dei han.
22 Joseph is a fruitful bough, a fruitful bough by a spring; the branches of which 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 And they embittered his life, and they shot at him, and they hated him, the men of the arrows.
Licung kathoumnaw ni puenghoi a lungmathoe sak awh han. A ka awh teh a maithoe awh han.
24 But his bow abode in strength, and his arm and his hands remained firm; from the hands of the mighty God of Jacob, from there thou becamest 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 From the God of thy father, who will help thee; and from the Almighty, who will bless thee, with blessings of heaven above, with blessings of the deep that coucheth beneath, with 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 With the blessings of thy father that have excelled the blessings of my progenitors unto the utmost bound of the everlasting hills: these shall be on the head of Joseph, and on the crown of the head of him that was separated 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 be as a wolf that rendeth: in the morning he shall devour the prey, and at evening 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 tribes of Israel, twelve in number; and this is what their father spoke unto them, and wherewith he blessed them; every one according to his proper blessing blessed he 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 unto them, I am to be gathered unto my people; bury me near 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 field Abraham bought of Ephron the Hittite, for a possession as a burying-place,
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 Purchasing the field and the cave that is therein 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 he departed this life, and was gathered unto 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.
