Genesis 49
1 Then Jacob called for his sons, and said: “Gather yourselves together, that I may tell you what will happen to you in the future.
Le kinanji’ Iakòbe o ana’eo, vaho nanao ty hoe, Miropaha amako etoy, ho talilieko ze hifetsak’ ama’ areo amo andro añeo.
2 Assemble yourselves and listen, you sons of Jacob. Listen to Israel, your father.
Mivoria vaho mitsanoña, ry ana’ Iakòbe; tsendreño Israele rae’areo.
3 Reuben, you are my firstborn, my might, and the beginning of my strength, outstanding in dignity, and outstanding in power.
O Reòbene, tañoloñoloñako irehe, ty haozarako naho ty loha-voan-kafatrarako, mininginingy an-dohàñe, miligiligy am-panjofahañe.
4 Uncontrollable as rushing water, you will not have the preeminence, because you went up to your father's bed. Then you defiled it; you went up to my couch.
mihalingaliñe hoe rano, tsy hionjoñe ka, amy te nanganiha’o ty fandrean-drae’o; nitivàeñe—ie nijoñe an-tihiko eo!
5 Simeon and Levi are brothers. Weapons of violence are their swords.
Miharo-foetse t’i Simone naho i Levy; haraom-piaroteñe o fialia’ iareoo.
6 O my soul, do not come into their council; do not join in their meetings, for my heart has too much honor for that. For in their anger they killed men. It was for pleasure that they hamstrung oxen.
Ee te tsy hitrao-pikinia’ am’iareo ty troko, Lonike te tsy hirekets’ am-pivori’iareo ty asiko, Fa an-kabosehañe ty namonoa’iareo ondaty, Naho an-tsatri’ iareo ro namirasintake añombe,
7 May their anger be cursed, for it was fierce—and their fury, for it was cruel. I will divide them in Jacob and scatter them in Israel.
Hafàtse ty haboseha’iareo, amy te mandoviake, naho ty fiforoforoa’iareo, amy te manitra! Ho zaraeko am’ Iakòbe ao iereo, vaho hampiparaitaheko e Israele ao.
8 Judah, your brothers will praise you. Your hand will be on the neck of your enemies. Your father's sons will bow down before you.
O Iehodà, mandrenge azo o rahalahi’oo; An-trehon-drafelahi’o ty fità’o; Milokoloko ama’o o ana-dahin-drae’oo.
9 Judah is a lion's cub. My son, you have gone up from your victims. He stooped down, he crouched like a lion, like a lioness. Who would dare to awaken him?
Ana-diona t’Iehodà; Nitsàtsa irehe le nitroatse. Mitsakononoke eo re, mangolotoke hoe liona, hoe liona-vave, ia ty hampitsekak’ aze?
10 The scepter will not depart from Judah, nor the ruler's staff from between his feet, until Shiloh comes. The nations will obey him.
Tsy hipitsok’ am’ Iehodà ty kobain-drazañe, ndra ty fitoñom-panjaka añivo’ o fandia’eo, ampara’ ty fitotsaha’ i Talè’ey vaho ie ty hivohora’ o kilakila’ndatio.
11 Binding his donkey to the vine, and his donkey's colt to the choice vine, he has washed his garments in wine, and his robe in the blood of grapes.
Vahora’e am-bahe ty borìke’e tarabao, naho ty ana-borìke’e am-bahe miloeloe, le sinasa’e an-divay o siki’eo, naho o saro’eo an-diom-balobok’ ao;
12 His eyes will be as dark as wine, and his teeth as white as milk.
Menae’ ty divay o maso’eo, vaho hafotin-dronono ty nife’e.
13 Zebulun will live by the shore of the sea. He will be a harbor for ships, and his border will extend to Sidon.
Hitoetse añolon-driake t’i Zebolone ho fitolian-dakañe, hiefetse amy Tsidòne añe.
14 Issachar is a strong donkey, lying down between the sheepfolds.
Borìke maozatse t’Isakare miondrek’ añivon-kilankañe roe,
15 He sees a good resting place and the pleasant land. He will bend his shoulder to the burden and become a servant for the task.
Naheo’e te soa i fitofàñey naho te naindoñindoñe i taney, aa le nabokoboko’e o soro’eo hinday vaho ninjare nitoroñe haba.
16 Dan will judge his people as one of the tribes of Israel.
Hizaka ondati’eo t’i Dane, Kanao mpiamo foko Israeleo.
17 Dan will be a snake beside the road, a poisonous snake in the path that bites the horse's heels, so that his rider falls backward.
Ho mereñe an-dalañe eo t’i Dane, menarà mandiñe an-dalan-tsileke eo, Mpihehetse tomin-tsovala Hampitafatsilañelañe i piningi’ey.
18 I wait for your salvation, Yahweh.
Mandiñe ty fandrombaha’o raho ry Iehovà.
19 Gad—raiders will attack him, but he will attack them at their heels.
Haname i Gade ty fifañosoñañe, Fa hihoridaña’e an-tomi’e.
20 Asher's food will be rich, and he will provide royal delicacies.
Boak’amy Asere ty mahakama matave, hazotso’e ty hafiriam-panjakay.
21 Naphtali is a doe let loose; he will have beautiful fawns.
Renem-panaloke nampidadañe t’i Naftaly, mitaroñe razan-tsaontsy.
22 Joseph is a fruitful bough, a fruitful bough near a spring, whose branches climb over the wall.
Tirin-katae mamoa t’Iosefe, toran-katae miregorego añ’olon-drano manganahana; mamokon-kijoly o tora’eo.
23 The archers will attack him and shoot at him and harass him.
Nampioje aze an-kafairañe o mpitàm-paleo; Hiniriri’iareo ana-pale fa nalaiñe aze.
24 But his bow will remain steady, and his hands will be skillful because of the hands of the Mighty One of Jacob, because of the name of the Shepherd, the Rock of Israel.
Fe nitan-kaozarañe i fale’ey vaho nampigañe’ o fitàn-Tsitongerè’ Iakòbeo, o siram-pità’eo, Boak’ ao ty Mpiarake, i Lamilami’ Israeley,
25 The God of your father will help you and the Almighty God will bless you with blessings of the sky above, blessings of the deep that lies beneath, and blessings of the breasts and womb.
hirik’ aman’ Añaharen-drae’o mpañimb’azoy, naho amy El-Sadai mpitahy azo, amo fitahia’ i andikerañe amboneio, amo fitahia’ i laleke mandre ambane aoio, amo fitahiam-patroa naho hoviñeo.
26 The blessings of your father are greater than the blessings of the ancient mountains or the desirable things of the ancient hills. May they be on the head of Joseph, even upon the crown of the head of the prince of his brothers.
Maozatse te ami’ty tata’ o vohitse tsy modoo o tatan-drae’oo, Pak’ añ’efe’ o haboañe nainai’eo ty ho an-kevo’ Iosefe, naho añambone’ i naambake amo rahalahi’eoy
27 Benjamin is a hungry wolf. In the morning he will devour the prey, and in the evening he will divide the plunder.”
Farasy romotse t’i Beniamine, maraiñe re mampibotseke ty nitsatsà’e, haleñe re mandiva o kinopa’eo.
28 These are the twelve tribes of Israel. This is what their father said to them when he blessed them. Each one he blessed with an appropriate blessing.
I tsaraeñe rezay ro fifokoa folo-ro’ ambi’ Israele, le i saontsieñey ro nafèn-drae’ iareo t’ie nitata; toe songa nitatae’e an-tata mañeva.
29 Then he instructed them and said to them, “I am about to go to my people. Bury me with my forefathers in the cave that is in the field of Ephron the Hittite,
Le hoe ty nafè’e am’iereo: Fa antitotse te hifanontoñe am’ ondatikoo iraho. Aleveño aman-droaeko an-dakato an-tete’ i Efrone nte-Khete ao
30 in the cave that is in the field of Machpelah, which is near Mamre in the land of Canaan, the field that Abraham bought for a burial place from Ephron the Hittite.
amy lakato an-tonda’ i Makpelà, aolo’ i Mamrè, an-tane Kanàne añe, vinili’ i Avrahame reketse tonda amy Efrone nte-Khete ho tanen-donake ho azey.
31 There they buried Abraham and Sarah his wife; there they buried Isaac and Rebekah his wife; and there I buried Leah.
Tao ty nandentehañe i Avrahame naho i Sarà vali’e le ty nandentehañe Ietsàke naho i vali’e Ribkae, vaho tao ty nandeveñako i Leae
32 The field and the cave that is in it were purchased from the people of Heth.”
I tetekey naho i lakato ama’ey ty vinily amo ana’ i Kheteo.
33 When Jacob finished these instructions to his sons, he pulled his feet into the bed, breathed his last, and went to his people.
Ie nagado’ Iakòbe i nafè’e amo ana’eoy, le naonjo’e am-pandrea’e o fandia’eo le nikofòke fara’e vaho natontoñe am’ ondati’eo.
