Genesis 49 (RHG)

1Bade Yakube hibar futaindore ḍaikke edde hodde, "Beggune fũwati aiyo, sarme tũwarar uwore zin goṭibo hin ãi tũwarare hoi:Then Jacob called for his sons and said, “Gather around so that I can tell you what will happen to you in the days to come:

2"Beggune fũwati aiyo! Funo, Yakubor futain okkol, tũwarar bab Israilor hota funo.Come together and listen, O sons of Jacob; listen to your father Israel.

3"Ruben, tui ãr foila zormo. Tui ãr bol, ãr juwanir foila fól, tui beggunor uwore šommani edde šoktidar.Reuben, you are my firstborn, my might, and the beginning of my strength, excelling in honor, excelling in power.

4Tui fanir ḍoilla ũtari foror, tor he usol tokka ar no takibo, kiyollahoile tui tor bafor bisanat giyos; tui napak ham goijjos, hite ãr bisanat giye.Uncontrolled as the waters, you will no longer excel, because you went up to your father’s bed, onto my couch, and defiled it.

5"Simeon edde Levi bái bái hitarar horafir zontro oilde toluwar.Simeon and Levi are brothers; their swords are weapons of violence.

6Hitarar gufon mošorat ãr hono ongšo nai, ãi hitarar dolot no! kiyollahoile hitara guššae manuš kun gore, nizor issa mote gorur ṭengor šiṛa haṛe.May I never enter their council; may I never join their assembly. For they kill men in their anger, and hamstring oxen on a whim.

7Bodduwa hitarar gušša edde gumanore, haron hin bišon edde beši zalemi. Ãi hitarare Yakubor bongšottu bag goriyum, edde Israilor butore hitarare šiṛašitta goriyum.Cursed be their anger, for it is strong, and their wrath, for it is cruel! I will disperse them in Jacob and scatter them in Israel.

8"Ehudah, tor báiyainde tor tarif goribo; dušmon okkolor geṛir uwore tor hat oibo; tor bafor futain okkole tor sarme mata zuhaibo.Judah, your brothers shall praise you. Your hand shall be on the necks of your enemies; your father’s sons shall bow down to you.

9Ãr fut Ehudah, tui šingor so; tui šiyaror gusto há šeš gori uṛi aili. Šingor ḍoilla neṛili edde uite fori roili, honokiye tor ḍake aibar šahoš no gorer.Judah is a young lion—my son, you return from the prey. Like a lion he crouches and lies down; like a lioness, who dares to rouse him?

10Ekdin Ehudar bongšor butottu ekzon šašongoroya aibo, zar hokum hár zatiye manibo. Ehudattu razar aša no zaibogoi, no zaibogoi bisaror aša hibar dui ṭengor mazottu Ze foijjonto šilo no aiye ar zati okkolor baiddota hibar oibo.The scepter will not depart from Judah, nor the staff from between his feet, until Shiloh comes and the allegiance of the nations is his.

11He ãngur lotat hibare gadawa bandibo, ar ãngur gasor he barik ḍeilat bandibo, gadar soware, hibaye šorafot duiye hibar fušak, ãnguror louwot duiye hibar hoor.He ties his donkey to the vine, his colt to the choicest branch. He washes his garments in wine, his robes in the blood of grapes.

12Hibar suk oibo šorafottuwaro lal, hibar dat dudottuwaro dola.His eyes are darker than wine, and his teeth are whiter than milk.

13"Sebulun doriyar farot bošot goribo, hiyan zahaz biraibar bondor oibo; Sidon foijjonto hitar dešor šima oibo.Zebulun shall dwell by the seashore and become a harbor for ships; his border shall extend to Sidon.

14"Issakar oilde ek boli gada ze dui soolor urar mazottu neṛer.Issachar is a strong donkey, lying down between the sheepfolds.

15hite dekilo ze ziranir zagagan bala, ar deššan šundor, hetolla hite bár boibolla hand lagai dilo, ar ek bondi gulam oigiyegoi.He saw that his resting place was good and that his land was pleasant, so he bent his shoulder to the burden and submitted to labor as a servant.

16"Dane hitar mainšor bisar goribo, Israilor guštir ek bongšor ḍoilla gori.Dan shall provide justice for his people as one of the tribes of Israel.

17Dan ek haf, fõtor ḍake ek bišdor haf, siyon rastat ze gũrar kuri sai kuṭmare, ar gũrar suwari uldi fis mikka fori zagoi.He will be a snake by the road, a viper in the path that bites the horse’s heels so that its rider tumbles backward.

18"O Mabud ãi tũwar uddaror ofekkat asi.I await Your salvation, O LORD.

19"Gadore ḍahaitor dole hamela goribo, kintu te o ulda falda hamela goribo.Gad will be attacked by raiders, but he will attack their heels.

20"Ašerottu barik haiddo fodai oibo; hite razalla mozar hana zuhaibo.Asher’s food will be rich; he shall provide royal delicacies.

21"Naftali melá horinni, hite šundojja baša ho.Naphtali is a doe set free that bears beautiful fawns.

22"Yusuf oilde ek gulawala gas, zonnar ḍake ek gulawala gas, ze gasor ḍeila okkol ḍebal ḍiyai giye.Joseph is a fruitful vine—a fruitful vine by a spring, whose branches scale the wall.

23Tir maroya okkole hitare beši hošṭo der, hitara hitare tir marer edde hamela gorer.The archers attacked him with bitterness; they aimed at him in hostility.

24Kintu hitar silhanḍa zendilla mojbut, hitar hator bayerat roiye hendilla bol, kiyollahoile Yakubor Šoktiwalar hat, ze Israilor falok edde he ḍõr fattor,Yet he steadied his bow, and his strong arms were tempered by the hands of the Mighty One of Jacob, in the name of the Shepherd, the Rock of Israel,

25tor bafor Allah, ze tore modot gorer, he Šoktiwala, ze tore rahamot gorer, asmanor uworor rahamot loi, nisor zobinor rahamot loi, bukor dud edde gorbor rahamot loi.by the God of your father who helps you, and by the Almighty who blesses you, with blessings of the heavens above, with blessings of the depths below, with blessings of the breasts and womb.

26Tor bafor rahamot aro barik sirohailla faharottu rahamotottuwaro, sirohailla parbotottu bala zinišottuwaro. Hin okkol Yusufor matar uwore forok, forok hitar matar širot, ze báiyain okkolor maze razfut.The blessings of your father have surpassed the blessings of the ancient mountains and the bounty of the everlasting hills. May they rest on the head of Joseph, on the brow of the prince of his brothers.

27"Benyamin oilde ek šiyari gendabag, binna hite šiyar háibo, ar hazinna hite luṭ baṛe."Benjamin is a ravenous wolf; in the morning he devours the prey, in the evening he divides the plunder.”

28Itara beggun oilde Israilor baro bongšo, ar in oilde zin hitarar bafe hitarare hoil zẽtte hibaye hitarare rahamot goijje. Hibaye rahamot goijje edde hitara fotti ekzon ze zar laikka mozin duwa diye.These are the tribes of Israel, twelve in all, and this was what their father said to them. He blessed them, and he blessed each one with a suitable blessing.

29Bade Yakube hitarare hokum diye edde hitarare hodde, "Ãi ãr baf dada okkolor hãse dola oirgoi. Hetittiyo Efronor maṛor hoboror gãtot, ãr baf dada okkolor fũwati ãre hobor diyo.Then Jacob instructed them, “I am about to be gathered to my people. Bury me with my fathers in the cave in the field of Ephron the Hittite.

30Ei gãt iba oilde Kenanot Mamrer muwamui Mokfelar maṛot, ziyan Ibrahime Hetittiyo Efronor hãsottu maṭ šoho hoborstan banaibolla kini loil.The cave is in the field of Machpelah near Mamre, in the land of Canaan. This is the field Abraham purchased from Ephron the Hittite as a burial site.

31Heṛe Ibrahim edde hibar bou Sarare o hobor diya oiye, ar Isak edde hibar bou Rebekare o heṛe hobor diya oiye, ar ãi Leare o heṛe hobor diyi.There Abraham and his wife Sarah are buried, there Isaac and his wife Rebekah are buried, and there I buried Leah.

32He maṭ edde heṛe asede gãt šoho hiyan Hetittiyo okkolottu kini lowa oiye."The field and the cave that is in it were purchased from the Hittites.”

33Yakube hibar futaindore hokum diya šeš gori bade bisanar uwore dui ṭeng ek hatar goijje, bade niyaš felaiye edde hibar baf dada okkol loi dola oiyegoi.When Jacob had finished instructing his sons, he pulled his feet into the bed and breathed his last, and he was gathered to his people.
