1:a Moseboken 49 - King James Version

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 your father. 

(Israel = A…:)

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 (Earth). 

8 Judah, 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. 

9 Judah 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?   

10 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.

10   Staven skall inte avvika från Juda,

Ej heller en lagstiftare (en präst) från mellan hans fötter *, till dess Shiloh** kommer, och till honom ska insamling av folket vara.

       men Juda har redan lagt beslag på den, och omedvetet!

** =  Kreaturet (ledaren) i Sure [6:1] :  ”Mig Rättfärdiga”!
