I Guds Namn, Barmhärtigaste Snällaste
1 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 Gather yourselves together, and hear, ye sons of Jacob; and hearken
unto Israel
(Israel
3 Reuben, thou art my firstborn, my might, and the beginning of my
strength, the excellency of dignity, and the excellency of power:
4 Unstable as water, thou shalt not excel (Shine,
Stand out) ; because thou wentest up to
thy father's bed; then defiledst thou it:
he went up to my couch.
5 Simeon and Levi are brethren; instruments of cruelty are in their
habitations.
6 O my soul ,
come not thou into their secret; unto their assembly, mine honour, be not thou united: for in their anger they slew a man,
and in their selfwill they digged down a wall.
7 Cursed 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

9 Judah
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?
10 The sceptre shall not depart from Judah Shiloh come; and unto him
shall the gathering of the people be.
