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.
Призва же Иаков сыны своя и рече им: соберитеся, да возвещу вам, что срящет вас в последния дни:
2 Gather yourselves together, and hear, ye sons of Jacob; and hearken unto Israel your father.
соберитеся и послушайте мене, сынове Иаковли, послушайте Израиля, послушайте отца вашего.
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].
Рувим, первенец мой, ты крепость моя и начало чад моих: жесток терпети и жесток упорник:
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.
досадил еси яко вода, да не воскипиши: возшел бо еси на ложе отца твоего, тогда осквернил еси постелю, идеже возшел еси.
5 Simeon and Levi are brethren; weapons of violence are their swords.
Симеон и Левий братия совершиста обиду от воли своея:
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.
в совет их да не приидет душа моя, и к собранию их да не прилепятся внутренняя моя: яко во гневе своем избиста человеки, и в похоти своей пререзаста жилы юнца:
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.
проклята ярость их, яко упорна, и гнев их, яко ожесточися: разделю их во Иакове и разсею их во Израили.
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.
Иудо, тебе похвалят братия твоя, руце твои на плещу враг твоих: поклонятся тебе сынове отца твоего:
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?
скимен львов Иуда: от леторасли, сыне мой, возшел еси: возлег уснул еси яко лев и яко скимен: кто возбудит его?
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.
Не оскудеет князь от Иуды и вождь от чресл его, дондеже приидут отложеная Ему, и Той чаяние языков:
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;
привязуяй к лозе жребя свое и к винничию жребца осляте своего, исперет вином одежду свою и кровию гроздия одеяние свое:
12 His eyes shall be red from wine, and his teeth white from milk.
радостотворны очи его паче вина, и белы зубы его паче млека.
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.
Завулон при мори вселится, и той на пристанищи кораблей, и прострется даже до Сидона.
14 Issachar is a strong-boned ass, couching down between the stables.
Иссахар доброе возжела, почивая посреде пределов,
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.
и видев покой, яко добр, и землю, яко тучна, подложи рамы свои на труд, и бысть муж земледелец.
16 Dan shall judge his people, as one of the tribes of Israel.
Дан судити имать люди своя, яко и едино племя во Израили,
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.
и да будет Дан змий на пути, седяй на распутии, угрызая пяту конску:
18 For thy salvation, I hope, O Lord.
и падет конник вспять, спасения ждый Господня.
19 Gad, troops will band against him; but he shall wound their heel.
Гад, искушение искусит его: он же искусит того при ногах.
20 Out of Asher cometh fat bread, and he shall yield royal dainties.
Асир, тучен его хлеб, и той даст пищу князем.
21 Naphtali is [like] a fleet hind; he bringeth pleasant words.
Неффалим стебль распущающаяся, издаяй во отрасли доброту.
22 Joseph is a fruitful bough, a fruitful bough by a spring; the branches of which run over the wall.
Сын возращен Иосиф, сын возращен мой ревностный, сын мой юнейший, ко мне обратися:
23 And they embittered his life, and they shot at him, and they hated him, the men of the arrows.
на негоже советующе укоряху и наляцаху нань господие стреляний,
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.
и сотрошася с крепостию луки их, и разслабеша жилы мышцей рук их, рукою сильнаго Иакова: оттуду укрепися Израиль от Бога отца твоего,
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;
и поможе тебе Бог мой, и благослови тя благословением небесным свыше и благословением земли и имущия вся: благословения ради сосцев и ложесн,
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.
благословения отца твоего и матере твоея: преодоле паче благословения гор пребывающих и благословения холмов вечных: будут на главе Иосифове и на версе (главы) братий, имиже обладаше.
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.
Вениамин волк хищник, рано яст еще и на вечер дает пищу.
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.
Вси сии сынове Иаковли дванадесять: и сия глагола им отец их, и благослови их: коегождо по благословению его благослови их,
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,
и рече им: аз прилагаюся к людем моим: погребите мя со отцы моими в пещере, яже есть в селе Ефрона Хеттеанина,
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,
в пещере Сугубей, яже прямо Мамврии в земли Ханаани, юже стяжа Авраам пещеру у Ефрона Хеттеанина в стяжание гроба.
31 (There they buried Abraham and Sarah his wife; there they buried Isaac and Rebekah his wife; and there I buried Leah, )
Тамо погребоша Авраама и Сарру жену его, тамо погребоша Исаака и Ревекку жену его, тамо погребоша Лию,
32 Purchasing the field and the cave that is therein from the children of Heth.
в стяжании села и пещеры, яже есть в нем у сынов Хеттеовых.
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.
И преста Иаков завещая сыном своим, и возложив Иаков нозе свои на одр умре, и приложися к людем своим.
