Genesis - ch 49 v 1 - 20

  1. And Jacob called unto his sons, and said: gather yourselves together, that I may tell you that which shall befall you in the latter days.
  2. Assemble yourselves, and hear, ye sons of Jacob; And hearken unto Israel your father.
  3. Reuben, thou art my first-born, my might, and the beginning of my strength; The pre-eminence of dignity, and the pre-eminence of power.
  4. Boiling over as water, thou shalt not have the pre-eminence; 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; Weapons of violence are their swords.
  6. O my soul, come not thou into their council; Unto their assembly, my glory, be not thou united; For in their anger they slew a man, And in their self-will they hocked an ox.
  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.
  8. Judah, thee shall thy brethren praise: Thy hand shall be on the neck of thine enemies; Thy father's sons 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 a lioness; who shall rouse him up?
  10. The sceptre shall not depart from Judah, Nor the ruler's staff from between his feet, Until Shiloh come: And unto him shall the obedience of the peoples be.
  11. Binding his foal unto the vine, And his ass's colt unto the choice vine; He hath washed his garments in wine, And his vesture in the blood of grapes:
  12. His eyes shall be red with wine, And his teeth white with milk.
  13. Zebulun shall dwell at the haven of the sea; And he shall be for a haven of ships; And his border shall be upon Sidon.
  14. Issachar is a strong ass, Couching down between the sheepfolds:
  15. And he saw a resting-place that it was good, And the land that it was pleasant; And he bowed his shoulder to bear, And became a servant under taskwork.
  16. Dan shall judge his people, As one of the tribes of Israel.
  17. Dan shall be a serpent in the way, An adder in the path, That biteth the horse's heels, So that his rider falleth backward.
  18. I have waited for thy salvation, O Jehovah.
  19. Gad, a troop shall press upon him; But he shall press upon their heel.
  20. Out of the Asher his bread shall be fat, And he shall yield royal dainties.
