Genesis 49

1And 1

2Assemble 1 And hearken unto Israel your father. 1

3Reuben 1 The preeminence of dignity, and the preeminence of power. 1

4Boiling over 1 Because thou wentest up to thy father’s bed; 1 Then defiledst thou it: he went up to my couch. 1

5Simeon 1 Weapons of violence are their swords. 1

6O 1 Unto their assembly, my glory, be not thou united; 1 For in their anger they slew a man, 1 And in their self-will they hocked an ox. 1

7Cursed be 1 And their wrath, for it was cruel: 1 I will divide them in Jacob, 1 And scatter them in Israel. 1

8Judah 1 Thy hand shall be on the neck of thine enemies; 1 Thy father’s sons shall bow down before thee. 1

9Judah 1 From the prey, my son, thou art gone up: 1 He stooped down, he couched as a lion, 1 And as a lioness; who shall rouse him up? 1

10The 1 Nor the ruler’s staff from between his feet, 1 Until Shiloh come; 1 And unto him shall the obedience of the peoples be. 1

11Binding his 1 And his ass’s colt unto the choice vine; 1 He hath washed his garments in wine, 1 And his vesture in the blood of grapes: 1

12His 1 And his teeth white with milk. 1

13Zebulun 1 And he shall be for a haven of ships; 1 And his border shall be upon Sidon. 1

14Issachar 1 Couching down between the sheepfolds: 1

15And 1 And the land that it was pleasant; 1 And he bowed his shoulder to bear, 1 And became a servant under taskwork. 1

16Dan 1 As one of the tribes of Israel. 1

17Dan 1 An adder in the path, 1 That biteth the horse’s heels, 1 So that his rider falleth backward. 1

18I 1

19Gad 1 But he shall press upon their heel. 1

20Out 1 And he shall yield royal dainties. 1

21Naphtali 1 He giveth goodly words. 1

22Joseph 1 A fruitful bough by a fountain; 1 His branches run over the wall. 1

23The archers 1 And shot at him, and persecuted him: 1

24But 1 And the arms of his hands were made strong, 1 By the hands of the Mighty One of Jacob 1 ( From thence is the shepherd, the stone of Israel), 1

25Even 1 And by the Almighty, who shall bless thee, 1 With blessings of heaven above, 1 Blessings of the deep that coucheth beneath, 1 Blessings of the breasts, and of the womb. 1

26The 1 Have prevailed above the blessings of my progenitors 1 Unto the utmost bound of the everlasting hills: 1 They shall be on the head of Joseph, 1 And on the crown of the head of him that was separate from his brethren. 1

27Benjamin 1 In the morning he shall devour the prey, 1 And at even he shall divide the spoil.
