¹And Jacob called unto his sons, and said, Gather yourselves together, that I may tell you that which shall befall you in the last days.

¹Ja Jaakob kutsus oma pojad enese juurde ning ütles: 'Tulge kokku, siis ma kuulutan teile, mis teiega sünnib tulevasil päevil!

²Gather yourselves together, and hear, ye sons of Jacob; and hearken unto Israel your father.

²Kogunege ja kuulge, Jaakobi pojad, võtke kuulda Iisraeli, oma isa!

³Reuben, thou art my firstborn, my might, and the beginning of my strength, the excellency of dignity, and the excellency of power:

³Ruuben, sina oled mu esmasündinu, mu rammu ja sigitusjõu esikpoeg, väljapaistev väärikuselt ja väljapaistev võimult.

⁴Unstable as water, thou shalt not excel; because thou wentest up to thy father's bed; then defiledst thou it: he went up to my couch.

⁴Veena oled sa vooganud - esikohale sa ei jää, sest sa tõusid oma isa sängi! Sel korral sa rüvetasid selle, sina, kes tõusid mu voodile.

⁵Simeon and Levi are brethren; instruments of cruelty are in their habitations.

⁵Vennaksed Siimeon ja Leevi, nende noad on vägivalla riistad.

⁶O my soul, come not thou into their secret; unto their assembly, mine honor, be not thou united: for in their anger they slew a man, and in their self-will they digged down a wall.

⁶Nende nõusse ei astu mu hing, nende seltsiga ei liitu mu süda. Sest oma vihas nad tapsid mehi ja meelevallatuses halvasid härgi.

⁷Cursed be their anger, for it was fierce; and their wrath, for it was cruel: I will divide them in Jacob, and scatter them in Israel.

⁷Olgu neetud nende kange viha ja nende metsik raev! Ma jaotan nad Jaakobis ja hajutan Iisraelis!

⁸Judah, thou art he whom thy brethren shall praise: thy hand shall be in the neck of thine enemies; thy father's children shall bow down before thee.

⁸Juuda, sind ülistavad su vennad. Sinu käsi on su vaenlaste turjal, sind kummardavad su isa pojad.

⁹Judah is a lion's whelp: from the prey, my son, thou art gone up: he stooped down, he couched as a lion, and as an old lion; who shall rouse him up?

⁹Juuda on lõvikutsikas - saagi kallalt, mu poeg, oled tõusnud. Ta on heitnud maha, ta lebab nagu lõvi, nagu metsik lõvi - kes julgeks teda äratada?

¹⁰The 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.

¹⁰Ei lahku valitsuskepp Juudast ega sau tema jalgelt, kuni tuleb Juuda poeg Siilo, ja teda võtavad rahvad kuulda.

¹¹Binding his foal unto the vine, and his ass's colt unto the choice vine; he washed his garments in wine, and his clothes in the blood of grapes:

¹¹Ta seob oma eesli viinapuu külge, hea viinapuu külge oma eeslivarsa; ta peseb oma kuube veiniga ja oma vammust viinamarjade verega.

¹²His eyes shall be red with wine, and his teeth white with milk.

¹²Ta silmad on veinist hämused ja hambad piimast valged.

¹³Zebulun shall dwell at the haven of the sea; and he shall be for an haven of ships; and his border shall be unto Zidon.

¹³Sebulon elab mererannal, ta saab laevade rannikuks ja tema selg on pööratud Siidoni poole.

¹⁴Issachar is a strong ass couching down between two burdens:

¹⁴Issaskar on kondine eesel, kes lebab sadulakorvide vahel.

¹⁵And he saw that rest was good, and the land that it was pleasant; and bowed his shoulder to bear, and became a servant unto tribute.

¹⁵Kui ta nägi head hingamispaika ja meeldivat maad, ta langetas oma turja koormat kandma ja sai tööorjaks.

¹⁶Dan shall judge his people, as one of the tribes of Israel.

¹⁶Daan mõistab kohut oma rahvale, üks Iisraeli suguharu on temagi.

¹⁷Dan shall be a serpent by the way, an adder in the path, that biteth the horse heels, so that his rider shall fall backward.

¹⁷Daan on madu teel, rästik raja peal, kes salvab hobuse kandu, nõnda et ratsanik kukub selili.

¹⁸I have waited for thy salvation, O LORD.

¹⁸Ma ootan päästet sinult, Issand!

¹⁹Gad, a troop shall overcome him: but he shall overcome at the last.

¹⁹Gaad - röövjõugud ründavad teda, aga ta ise ründab neid, olles neil kannul.

²⁰Out of Asher his bread shall be fat, and he shall yield royal dainties.

²⁰Aaserilt tuleb rammus roog ja temal on anda kuninglikke maiuspalu.

²¹Naphtali is a hind let loose: he giveth goodly words.

²¹Naftali on nobe emahirv, kes toob kuuldavale ilusaid sõnu.

²²Joseph is a fruitful bough, even a fruitful bough by a well; whose branches run over the wall:

²²Joosep on viljapuu poeg, viljapuu poeg allikal, oksad ulatuvad üle müüri.

²³The archers have sorely grieved him, and shot at him, and hated him:

²³Ammukütid ahistavad teda, ründavad ja rõhuvad teda,

²⁴But his bow abode in strength, and the arms of his hands were made strong by the hands of the mighty God of Jacob; (from thence is the shepherd, the stone of Israel:)

²⁴aga tema amb jääb kindlaks ja ta käsivarred on nõtked Jaakobi Vägeva abiga, Karjase, Iisraeli Kalju nime abiga,

²⁵Even by the God of thy father, who shall help thee; and by the Almighty, who shall bless thee with blessings of heaven above, blessings of the deep that lieth under, blessings of the breasts, and of the womb:

²⁵su isa Jumala abiga, kes sind aidaku, Kõigeväelise abiga, kes sind õnnistagu õnnistustega ülalt taevast, õnnistustega all asuvast põhjaveest, õnnistustega emarindadest ja üskadest!

²⁶The blessings of thy father have prevailed above the blessings of my progenitors unto the utmost bound of the everlasting hills: they shall be on the head of Joseph, and on the crown of the head of him that was separate from his brethren.

²⁶Su isa õnnistused ületavad igaveste mägede õnnistused, ürgsete küngaste ihaldusväärsed annid. Need tulgu Joosepi pea peale, oma vendade vürsti pealaele!

²⁷Benjamin shall raven as a wolf: in the morning he shall devour the prey, and at night he shall divide the spoil.

²⁷Benjamin on kiskjalik hunt. Hommikul ta sööb saaki ja õhtul jaotab röövitut.'

²⁸All these are the twelve tribes of Israel: and this is it that their father spake unto them, and blessed them; every one according to his blessing he blessed them.

²⁸Need kõik olid Iisraeli suguharud, neid oli kaksteist, ja see oli, mis nende isa neile rääkis, kui ta neid õnnistas: ta õnnistas igaüht temale kohase õnnistusega.

²⁹And he charged them, and said unto them, I am to be gathered unto my people: bury me with my fathers in the cave that is in the field of Ephron the Hittite,

²⁹Ja ta käskis neid ning ütles neile: 'Mind koristatakse mu rahva juurde. Matke mind mu isade juurde koopasse, mis on hett Efroni väljal,

³⁰In the cave that is in the field of Machpelah, which is before Mamre, in the land of Canaan, which Abraham bought with the field of Ephron the Hittite for a possession of a buryingplace.

³⁰sellesse koopasse, mis on Makpela väljal Mamre kohal Kaananimaal, mille Aabraham ostis koos väljaga hett Efronilt pärushauaks.

³¹There they buried Abraham and Sarah his wife; there they buried Isaac and Rebekah his wife; and there I buried Leah.

³¹Sinna on maetud Aabraham ja tema naine Saara, sinna on maetud Iisak ja tema naine Rebeka, ja sinna ma olen matnud Lea.

³²The purchase of the field and of the cave that is therein was from the children of Heth.

³²Väli ja seal olev koobas on hettidelt ostetud.'

³³And when Jacob had made an end of commanding his sons, he gathered up his feet into the bed, and yielded up the ghost, and was gathered unto his people.

³³Kui Jaakob oli oma poegadele käsu andnud, siis ta sirutas voodis oma jalad välja ja heitis hinge; ja ta koristati oma rahva juurde.
