Genesisy 49
1 Le kinanji’ Iakòbe o ana’eo, vaho nanao ty hoe, Miropaha amako etoy, ho talilieko ze hifetsak’ ama’ areo amo andro añeo.
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.
2 Mivoria vaho mitsanoña, ry ana’ Iakòbe; tsendreño Israele rae’areo.
Gather yourselves together, and hear, ye sons of Jacob; and hearken unto Israel your father.
3 O Reòbene, tañoloñoloñako irehe, ty haozarako naho ty loha-voan-kafatrarako, mininginingy an-dohàñe, miligiligy am-panjofahañe.
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].
4 mihalingaliñe hoe rano, tsy hionjoñe ka, amy te nanganiha’o ty fandrean-drae’o; nitivàeñe—ie nijoñe an-tihiko eo!
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.
5 Miharo-foetse t’i Simone naho i Levy; haraom-piaroteñe o fialia’ iareoo.
Simeon and Levi are brethren; weapons of violence are their swords.
6 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,
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.
7 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.
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.
8 O Iehodà, mandrenge azo o rahalahi’oo; An-trehon-drafelahi’o ty fità’o; Milokoloko ama’o o ana-dahin-drae’oo.
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.
9 Ana-diona t’Iehodà; Nitsàtsa irehe le nitroatse. Mitsakononoke eo re, mangolotoke hoe liona, hoe liona-vave, ia ty hampitsekak’ aze?
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?
10 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.
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.
11 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;
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;
12 Menae’ ty divay o maso’eo, vaho hafotin-dronono ty nife’e.
His eyes shall be red from wine, and his teeth white from milk.
13 Hitoetse añolon-driake t’i Zebolone ho fitolian-dakañe, hiefetse amy Tsidòne añe.
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.
14 Borìke maozatse t’Isakare miondrek’ añivon-kilankañe roe,
Issachar is a strong-boned ass, couching down between the stables.
15 Naheo’e te soa i fitofàñey naho te naindoñindoñe i taney, aa le nabokoboko’e o soro’eo hinday vaho ninjare nitoroñe haba.

Dan shall judge his people, as one of the tribes of Israel.
17 Ho mereñe an-dalañe eo t’i Dane, menarà mandiñe an-dalan-tsileke eo, Mpihehetse tomin-tsovala Hampitafatsilañelañe i piningi’ey.
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.
18 Mandiñe ty fandrombaha’o raho ry Iehovà.
For thy salvation, I hope, O Lord.

22 Tirin-katae mamoa t’Iosefe, toran-katae miregorego añ’olon-drano manganahana; mamokon-kijoly o tora’eo.
Joseph is a fruitful bough, a fruitful bough by a spring; the branches of which run over the wall.
23 Nampioje aze an-kafairañe o mpitàm-paleo; Hiniriri’iareo ana-pale fa nalaiñe aze.
And they embittered his life, and they shot at him, and they hated him, the men of the arrows.
24 Fe nitan-kaozarañe i fale’ey vaho nampigañe’ o fitàn-Tsitongerè’ Iakòbeo, o siram-pità’eo, Boak’ ao ty Mpiarake, i Lamilami’ Israeley,
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.
25 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.
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;
26 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

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.
29 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
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,
30 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.
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,

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.
