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.
Призва же Иаков сыны своя и рече им: соберитеся, да возвещу вам, что срящет вас в последния дни:
2 Assemble yourselves and listen, you sons of Jacob. Listen to Israel, your father.
соберитеся и послушайте мене, сынове Иаковли, послушайте Израиля, послушайте отца вашего.
3 Reuben, you are my firstborn, my might, and the beginning of my strength, outstanding in dignity, and outstanding in power.
Рувим, первенец мой, ты крепость моя и начало чад моих: жесток терпети и жесток упорник:
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.
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 brothers. Weapons of violence are their swords.
Симеон и Левий братия совершиста обиду от воли своея:
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.
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 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.
проклята ярость их, яко упорна, и гнев их, яко ожесточися: разделю их во Иакове и разсею их во Израили.
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.
Иудо, тебе похвалят братия твоя, руце твои на плещу враг твоих: поклонятся тебе сынове отца твоего:
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?
скимен львов Иуда: от леторасли, сыне мой, возшел еси: возлег уснул еси яко лев и яко скимен: кто возбудит его?
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.
Не оскудеет князь от Иуды и вождь от чресл его, дондеже приидут отложеная Ему, и Той чаяние языков:
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.
привязуяй к лозе жребя свое и к винничию жребца осляте своего, исперет вином одежду свою и кровию гроздия одеяние свое:
12 His eyes will be as dark as wine, and his teeth as white as milk.
радостотворны очи его паче вина, и белы зубы его паче млека.
13 Zebulun will live by the shore of the sea. He will be a harbor for ships, and his border will extend to Sidon.
Завулон при мори вселится, и той на пристанищи кораблей, и прострется даже до Сидона.
14 Issachar is a strong donkey, lying down between the sheepfolds.
Иссахар доброе возжела, почивая посреде пределов,
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.
и видев покой, яко добр, и землю, яко тучна, подложи рамы свои на труд, и бысть муж земледелец.
16 Dan will judge his people as one of the tribes of Israel.
Дан судити имать люди своя, яко и едино племя во Израили,
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.
и да будет Дан змий на пути, седяй на распутии, угрызая пяту конску:
18 I wait for your salvation, Yahweh.
и падет конник вспять, спасения ждый Господня.
19 Gad—raiders will attack him, but he will attack them at their heels.
Гад, искушение искусит его: он же искусит того при ногах.
20 Asher's food will be rich, and he will provide royal delicacies.
Асир, тучен его хлеб, и той даст пищу князем.
21 Naphtali is a doe let loose; he will have beautiful fawns.
Неффалим стебль распущающаяся, издаяй во отрасли доброту.
22 Joseph is a fruitful bough, a fruitful bough near a spring, whose branches climb over the wall.
Сын возращен Иосиф, сын возращен мой ревностный, сын мой юнейший, ко мне обратися:
23 The archers will attack him and shoot at him and harass him.
на негоже советующе укоряху и наляцаху нань господие стреляний,
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.
и сотрошася с крепостию луки их, и разслабеша жилы мышцей рук их, рукою сильнаго Иакова: оттуду укрепися Израиль от Бога отца твоего,
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.
и поможе тебе Бог мой, и благослови тя благословением небесным свыше и благословением земли и имущия вся: благословения ради сосцев и ложесн,
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.
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 is a hungry wolf. In the morning he will devour the prey, and in the evening he will divide the plunder.”
Вениамин волк хищник, рано яст еще и на вечер дает пищу.
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.
Вси сии сынове Иаковли дванадесять: и сия глагола им отец их, и благослови их: коегождо по благословению его благослови их,
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,
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 near Mamre in the land of Canaan, the field that Abraham bought for a burial place from Ephron the Hittite.
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 The field and the cave that is in it were purchased from the people of Heth.”
в стяжании села и пещеры, яже есть в нем у сынов Хеттеовых.
33 When Jacob finished these instructions to his sons, he pulled his feet into the bed, breathed his last, and went to his people.
И преста Иаков завещая сыном своим, и возложив Иаков нозе свои на одр умре, и приложися к людем своим.
