Genesis 49
1 Jacob summoned all his sons, and said to them,
Jekopu'a amanage huno mika ne'mofavre'amokizmi zamasmi'ne, Henkama tamagrite'ma fore hania zamofo nanekea tamasamigahuanki,
2 “Gather around me in order that I can tell you what will happen in the future. My sons, come and listen to me. I am your father, [Jacob, whom God named] Israel.
Jekopu mofavre naga'nimota tamagra eme atru huneta tamagesa anteta nerafa'na Israeli'na hanua nanekea antahiho.
3 Reuben, you are my oldest son. You were born when I was young and energetic/strong. You are prouder and stronger than all the rest of my sons.
Rubeniga nagonesa mofavremoka, ese hihamu ni'afinti kasegante'nogenka zamagaterenka mareri vahe mani'nanku, hanave kamo asaga hu'ne.
4 But you were as uncontrollable as a flood [SIM]. So now you will not be my most important son, because you climbed up onto my bed, and had sex with [MTY] my (concubine/slave who had become one of my wives). Your doing that caused me, your father, to have great shame.
Hianagi timo hageno eviankna huno, nagakafina ran kagia omanegahie. Na'ankure negafa sipare marerinka haviza hunka mago a'ni'a avazu nehunka sipani'a eri hi'mna vu'nane.
5 Simeon and Levi, you have both acted like criminals. You use your swords to act violently.
Simioni'ene Livaikea kogna mani'na'e. Bainati kazinkno zanimo'a, vahera zamazeri havizantfa hugahie.
6 I do not want to be with you when you make evil plans [DOU]. I do not want to join you in your meetings, because you killed people when you became very angry, and you (hamstrung/cut the tendons in the legs of) oxen just to (have fun/see them suffer).
Nagri knare antahi antahimo'a, tanagri antahi antahifina omanegahie. Nagra kema anakisapina omanigahue. Na'ankure zanarimpa ahenke'ne vahera akafrigaha'e. Zanagra musezampi vu'ne, Bulimakao agia agruna nofi akafrina'e.
7 God says, ‘I will (curse/cause bad things to happen to) them for being very angry, for acting very cruelly when they were very furious. I will scatter their descendants [MTY] throughout Israel land.’
Tanarimpa ahe'zantera tusi huneranantoe. Na'ankure tanarimpa ahezamo'a arava ohegahie. Tanarimpa nehena, hazenke vahe manigaha'e. Jekopu'na nagri'pintira tanatufe atra'nena, Israeli mopafina arure arure huta manigahaze.
8 Judah, your [older and younger] brothers will praise you. They will bow down before you, because you will thoroughly defeat [MTY] your enemies.
Judaga kafu kaganaza kagi erisga hugahaze. Kagri kazamo'a ha' vahe ka'amokizmi zamanankempi megahie. Kagri negafa ne'mofavremo'za kepri hu'za zamarena regahaze.
9 Judah is like a young lion [SIM] that has returned to its den satisfied after eating the animals that it has killed. He is like a lion that lies down and stretches out after eating; no one would dare to disturb it [RHQ].
Judaga laioni anenta kna hu'nane. Kagra nenamofoga laionimo ne'zaga aheno nenaku kva hiankna hu'nane. Kagrikura vahe'mo'za kagoro hugahaze. Mago vahe'mo'a kvako osugahie.
10 There will always be a ruler [MTY] from the descendants of Judah [MTY]. Each one will hold a scepter/staff to show that he has authority as a king. He will do that until the one to whom the scepter belongs comes, the one to whom the nations will bring tribute and show that they will obey him.
Judaga kva vahe'mokizmi azompamo'a kagripi mevava hugahie. Kini vahe azompamo'a agiararemofo amu'nompi me'nesigeno, Nafa'amo'a henka Sailo kumate ehanatigahie. Hanige'za hakare ranra kumate veamo'za agri kea erizafa hugahaze.
11 The grapevines of Judah’s descendants will produce grapes very abundantly. As a result, they will not object to tying their young donkeys to the grapevines in order that the donkeys can eat the leaves of the grapevines. [Wine will be very plentiful, with the result that] they could wash their cloaks in wine that is as red as blood [MET].
Donki anentara krepire nofiteti rentesnankeno manigahie. Agaho donkima avesi'nesia krepi nofite'ma arentesigura antahi muhara osugahie. Kukena'a waini timpi sese hu'ne, na'ankure ne'zamo'a amporegeno nehana huga osu'ne.
12 Their eyes will be red because of [drinking too much] wine, but their teeth will be very white because of drinking much milk [from the cows].
Agra rama'a waini tina nenegu huno tare avurgamo'a koranke hu'ne, agra afu'mofo amirina rama'a nenegu huno, ave'mo'a efenentake hu'ne.
13 Zebulun, your descendants will live by the seashore where there will be a safe harbor for ships. Their land will extend north as far as Sidon [city].
Zebuluniga hageri ankenare umanigahane. Umani'nesanke'za vente'mo'za efre'za vu'za hugahaze. Mopa kamofo agemo'a Saidoni kuma atupare uhanatigahie.
14 Issachar, your descendants will be like strong donkeys that are lying down on the ground between their loads, [so tired that they cannot get up]!
Isakaga hankave donkie, tare fenonku'mofo amu'nompi manigsa hugahane.
15 They will see that their resting place is good, and that the land pleases them very much. But they will bend their backs to carry heavy loads and be forced to work for others.
Agrama kegeno knare manigsa kuma me'negeno, ana kumamo knare zantfa hu'negeno, hanave'a erigoteno eri'za eri'ne. Ana hu'neanagi henka'a kna'ane kazokzo eri'za erigahie.
16 Dan, although your tribe will be small, their leaders will rule their people just like the leaders of other tribes of Israel will rule their people.
Daniga kva (jas) vahe tro hunka vaheka'a kegava hugahane. Mago naga Israeli kevufi manigahaze.
17 Your descendants will be like snakes at the side of a road, like poisonous snakes lying beside a path. They will strike the heels of horses that pass by, causing the riders to fall backwards [as the horses rear up on their hind legs].”
Ha' osifavemo kamofo ankenare mani'neno, hosimofo agamerumpafi amprigeno, agumpifi vu'nea ne'mo amefigati asga hurami'ne.
18 Then Jacob prayed, “Yahweh, I am waiting for you to rescue me [from my enemies].”
Ra Anumzamoka nahoke ahesnanegu, kavega ante'na mani'noe.
19 [Then Jacob continued telling his sons what would happen in the future. He said], “Gad, your tribe/descendants will be attacked by a group of bandits, but your tribe/descendants will pursue and attack them [MTY].
Gatiga kumza vahe'mo'za kahegahaze. Hianagi rukrahe hunka, zamagumpi zamarotgo hugahane.
20 Asher, your descendants will eat good-tasting food; they will produce food that is delicious enough for kings to eat.
Asaga hentofa ne'za eri fore hugahane. Rankva vahe zame'nesia ne'za, hankregahane.
21 Naphtali, your descendants will be like deer [MET] that are (free to/not tied down and can) run wherever they wish. They will give birth to children who are good-looking like (fawns/baby deer) [MET].
Naftaliga, afi a' afu dia atregeno agareno viankna nehunka, knare so'e nanekege hugahane.
22 Joseph, you will have many descendants [MET]. Their children will be as many as the fruit on a vine near a spring of water, whose branches extend over a wall.
Josefega zafa azankunamo raga renteankna hugahane, azankunamo ti ankenare me'neno raga reno, pagagi huno kegina refiteankna hugahane.
23 Their enemies will attack them fiercely, and shoot at them with bows and arrows and pursue them.
Ha' vahekamo'za atireti hanaveti'za hara hunegante'za, kevea negahe'za, kazeri haviza hugahaze.
24 But they will hold their bows steady and their arms will remain strong, because of the power [MTY] of my mighty God, because of Yahweh who guides and provides for me [MET] like a shepherd guides and provides for his sheep. The people of Israel will [ask Yahweh to protect them], [like people hide under] a huge [overhanging] to be protected.
Hianagi Jekopu Anumzamo'a Josefena hankavea aminkeno azamo'a oragesigeno, kevema ahesiana hantaga osugahie. Ana Anumzamo'a Israeli vahera sipisipi afu kegava hiankna nehuno, zamagu'vazi havegna hugahie.
25 God, the one whom I worship, will help your descendants. God Almighty will bless them by sending them rain from the sky and by giving them water from deep/far below the ground. He will give them many cattle and children [MET] (OR, and their cattle will have many offspring).
Na'ankure Jekopu'na negafa'na Anumzamo kaza nehuno, hihamu'ane Anumzamo asomu huneganteno, anagamu monafinkati asomu huneganteno, mopa agu'afinti tina hanati'nigenka asomura e'nerinanke'za, karimpafinti'ma fore hanaza mofavre'mo'zanena asomura erigahaze.
26 The blessings that I want God to give you are great ones. They are greater than the blessings that come from the eternal mountains, greater than the ones that come from the everlasting hills. Joseph, I pray that these blessings will (be given to you/come upon your head), because you are the leader of your [older] brothers [and younger brother].
Kagri negafa'na asomumo'a nagri nagehe'i asomura agatereno mevava agonagna huno mareri'ne, ana asomumo'a, Josefega kokovite me'nenige'za, kafuhe'za kage anagamute'za kagegahaze.
27 Benjamin, your descendants will be like [MET] vicious/fierce wolves: In the morning they will kill their enemies like a wolf devours (its prey/the animals that it has killed), and in the evening they will divide among their warriors the spoils that they seized from their enemies.”
Benzameniga afi ha' kragna (wolf) hugahane. Nanterampi freno zaga aheno traga hiankna nehunka, kinaga'afi refko huno erino ome'mi eme'mi hiankna hugahane.
28 Those twelve sons are the ancestors of the twelve tribes of Israel. That is what their father said to them as he blessed them, telling to each one words that were appropriate for him.
Ama ana maka 12fu'a Israeli nagakino, nezmafa'a mago mago naga nofi'ma mani'naza avamente asomu kea huzmantetere hu'nea naneke.
29 Then Jacob said to his sons, “I will soon die. Bury my body where some of my ancestors are buried, in the cave that is in the field that was bought from Ephron, who belonged to the Heth people-group.
Jekopu'a amanage huno mofavre naga'amokizmia zamasmi'ne, Nagrama fri'na vahe'ni'ane umani knanimo'a kofta nehie. Hagi nafahe'ima ase zamante'naza mopare, havegampi ome asenanteho. Hiti ne' Efroni mopama mizama se'nefi ome asenanteho.
30 That field is in the Machpelah area, east of Mamre [town], in Canaan. My grandfather Abraham bought it from Ephron to use as a burial place.
Makapela havegampi Mamre kuma tvaonte Kenani mopa agu'afi, Abrahamu'ma ana mopane havegane vahe asente'zane huno Efroni'pinti'ma mizama se'nea mopafi ome asenanteho.
31 That is where they buried him and his wife Sarah. That is where they buried my father Isaac and his wife Rebekah. And that is where I buried my wife Leah.
E'i anampina Abrahamune nenaro Serane ase'znante'naze. Aisakine nenaro Rebekagiznia anampi ase znante'nafi, anampinke a'ni'a Liana asente'noe.
32 That field and the cave in it were bought from the Heth people-group; so that is where I want you to bury me.”
Ana mopane havegane Hiti ne' mofavrefinti miza se'neane.
33 When Jacob finished giving those instructions to his sons, he lay down on his bed again. Then he died [IDM].
Anagema huno mofavre naga'amokizmi zamasmi vaga reteno, agiararena sipare asuteno vagare asimu atreteno frino naga'ane umani'ne.
