Then Iaakob called his sonnes, and sayde, Gather your selues together, that I may tell you what shall come to you in the last dayes.

3 Ruvime, ti si prvenac moj, krjepost moja i poèetak sile moje; prvi gospodstvom i prvi snagom.
Reuben mine eldest sonne, thou art my might, and the beginning of my strength, the excellencie of dignitie, and the excellencie of power:
4 Navro si kao voda; neæeš biti prvi; jer si stao na postelju oca svojega i oskvrnio je legav na nju.
Thou wast light as water: thou shalt not be excellent, because thou wentest vp to thy fathers bed: then diddest thou defile my bed, thy dignitie is gone.
5 Simeun i Levije, braæa, maèevi su im oružje nepravdi.
Simeon and Leui, brethren in euill, the instruments of crueltie are in their habitations.
6 U tajne njihove da ne ulazi duša moja, sa zborom njihovijem da se ne sastavlja slava moja; jer u gnjevu svojem pobiše ljude, i za svoje veselje pokidaše volove.
Into their secret let not my soule come: my glory, be not thou ioyned with their assembly: for in their wrath they slew a man, and in their selfe will they digged downe a wall.
7 Proklet da je gnjev njihov, što bješe nagao, i ljutina njihova, što bješe žestoka; razdijeliæu ih po Jakovu, i rasuæu ih po Izrailju.
Cursed be their wrath, for it was fierce, and their rage, for it was cruell: I will deuide them in Iaakob, and scatter them in Israel.
