Revised Chinese Union Version (Traditional Script) Shen Edition
雅各的遺言
49 雅各叫了他的兒子來，說：「你們都來聚集，讓我把你們日後要遇到的事告訴你們。
2 雅各的兒子們，你們要聚集，要聆聽，
聽你們父親以色列的話。
3 呂便啊，你是我的長子，我的力量，
我壯年頭生之子，
極有尊榮，權力超羣。
4 你卻放縱如水，必不得居首位；
因為你上了你父親的床，
你[a]上了我的榻，污辱了它！
5 西緬和利未是兄弟；
他們的刀劍是殘暴的兵器。
6 願我的心不與他們同謀，
願我的靈[b]不與他們合夥；
因為他們在烈怒中殺人，
任意割斷牛腿的筋。
7 他們火爆的烈怒可詛，
他們兇殘的憤恨可咒！
我要把他們分散在雅各中，
使他們散居在以色列。
8 猶大啊，你的兄弟必讚美你，
你的手必掐住仇敵的頸項，
你父親的兒子要向你下拜。
9 猶大是隻小獅子；
我兒啊，你捕獲了獵物就上去。
他蹲伏，他躺臥，如公獅，
又如母獅，誰敢惹他呢？
10 權杖必不離猶大，
統治者的杖必不離他兩腳之間，
直等細羅[c]來到，
萬民都要歸順他。
13 西布倫必住在海邊，
必成為停船的港口；
他的疆界必延到西頓。
14 以薩迦是匹強壯的驢，
臥在羊圈之中。
15 他看見居所安舒，
土地肥美，
就屈肩負重，
成為服勞役的僕人。
16 但必為他的百姓伸冤[f]，
作為以色列支派之一。
17 但必作道旁的蛇，
路邊的毒蛇，
咬傷馬蹄，
使騎馬的人向後墜落。
18 耶和華啊，我等候你的救恩。
19 迦得必被襲擊者襲擊[g]，
他卻要襲擊他們的腳跟。
20 亞設必出豐盛的糧食，
要供應君王的佳肴。
21 拿弗他利是被釋放的母鹿，
他要生出可愛的小鹿[h]。
22 約瑟是多結果子的樹枝，
是泉旁多結果的枝子；
他的枝條伸出牆外。
23 弓箭手惡意攻擊他，
敵對他，向他射箭。
24 但他的弓仍舊堅硬，
他的手臂靈活敏捷，
這是因雅各的大能者的手，
從那裏，他是以色列的牧者，
以色列的磐石[i]。
25 你父親的 神必幫助你；
全能者必賜福給你：
天上的福，
深淵下面蘊藏的福，
以及生育哺養的福。
26 你父親的福
勝過我祖先的福，
直到永世山嶺的極限。
這些福必降在約瑟的頭上，
臨到那與兄弟有分別之人的頭頂上。
27 便雅憫是隻抓撕掠物的狼，
早晨要吃他的獵物，
晚上要分他的擄物。」
28 這一切是以色列的十二個支派。這是他們的父親對他們所說的話，他按照各人的福分為他們祝福。
雅各的死和安葬
29 他又吩咐他們說：「我快要歸到我祖先[j]那裏。你們要將我葬在赫人以弗崙田間的洞裏，與我的祖先在一處， 30 就是在迦南地幔利對面的麥比拉田間的洞裏，那田是亞伯拉罕向赫人以弗崙買來作墳地的產業。 31 亞伯拉罕和他的妻子撒拉葬在那裏；以撒和他的妻子利百加也葬在那裏。我也在那裏葬了利亞。 32 那塊田和田間的洞是向赫人買的。」 33 雅各囑咐眾子完畢後，就把腳收在床上斷了氣，歸到他祖先[k]那裏去了。

Genesis 49
New International Version
Jacob Blesses His Sons(A)
49 Then Jacob called for his sons and said: “Gather around so I can tell you what will happen to you in days to come.(B)
3 “Reuben, you are my firstborn,(E)
my might, the first sign of my strength,(F)
excelling in honor,(G) excelling in power.
4 Turbulent as the waters,(H) you will no longer excel,
for you went up onto your father’s bed,
onto my couch and defiled it.(I)
5 “Simeon(J) and Levi(K) are brothers—
their swords[a] are weapons of violence.(L)
6 Let me not enter their council,
let me not join their assembly,(M)
for they have killed men in their anger(N)
and hamstrung(O) oxen as they pleased.
7 Cursed be their anger, so fierce,
and their fury,(P) so cruel!(Q)
I will scatter them in Jacob
and disperse them in Israel.(R)
8 “Judah,[b](S) your brothers will praise you;
your hand will be on the neck(T) of your enemies;
your father’s sons will bow down to you.(U)
9 You are a lion’s(V) cub,(W) Judah;(X)
you return from the prey,(Y) my son.
Like a lion he crouches and lies down,
like a lioness—who dares to rouse him?
10 The scepter will not depart from Judah,(Z)
nor the ruler’s staff from between his feet,[c]
until he to whom it belongs[d] shall come(AA)
and the obedience of the nations shall be his.(AB)
11 He will tether his donkey(AC) to a vine,
his colt to the choicest branch;(AD)
he will wash his garments in wine,
his robes in the blood of grapes.(AE)
12 His eyes will be darker than wine,
his teeth whiter than milk.[e](AF)
13 “Zebulun(AG) will live by the seashore
and become a haven for ships;
his border will extend toward Sidon.(AH)
14 “Issachar(AI) is a rawboned[f] donkey
lying down among the sheep pens.[g](AJ)
15 When he sees how good is his resting place
and how pleasant is his land,(AK)
he will bend his shoulder to the burden(AL)
and submit to forced labor.(AM)
16 “Dan[h](AN) will provide justice for his people
as one of the tribes of Israel.(AO)
17 Dan(AP) will be a snake by the roadside,
a viper along the path,(AQ)
that bites the horse’s heels(AR)
so that its rider tumbles backward.
22 “Joseph(BB) is a fruitful vine,(BC)
a fruitful vine near a spring,
whose branches(BD) climb over a wall.[k]
23 With bitterness archers attacked him;(BE)
they shot at him with hostility.(BF)
24 But his bow remained steady,(BG)
his strong arms(BH) stayed[l] limber,
because of the hand of the Mighty One of Jacob,(BI)
because of the Shepherd,(BJ) the Rock of Israel,(BK)
25 because of your father’s God,(BL) who helps(BM) you,
because of the Almighty,[m](BN) who blesses you
with blessings of the skies above,
blessings of the deep springs below,(BO)
blessings of the breast(BP) and womb.(BQ)
26 Your father’s blessings are greater
than the blessings of the ancient mountains,
than[n] the bounty of the age-old hills.(BR)
Let all these rest on the head of Joseph,(BS)
on the brow of the prince among[o] his brothers.(BT)
27 “Benjamin(BU) is a ravenous wolf;(BV)
in the morning he devours the prey,(BW)
in the evening he divides the plunder.”(BX)
28 All these are the twelve tribes of Israel,(BY) and this is what their father said to them when he blessed them, giving each the blessing(BZ) appropriate to him.
The Death of Jacob
29 Then he gave them these instructions:(CA) “I am about to be gathered to my people.(CB) Bury me with my fathers(CC) in the cave in the field of Ephron the Hittite,(CD) 30 the cave in the field of Machpelah,(CE) near Mamre(CF) in Canaan, which Abraham bought along with the field(CG) as a burial place(CH) from Ephron the Hittite. 31 There Abraham(CI) and his wife Sarah(CJ) were buried, there Isaac and his wife Rebekah(CK) were buried, and there I buried Leah.(CL) 32 The field and the cave in it were bought from the Hittites.[p](CM)”
33 When Jacob had finished giving instructions to his sons, he drew his feet up into the bed, breathed his last and was gathered to his people.(CN)

King James Version
49 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.
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; 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.
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.
11 Binding his foal unto the vine, and his ass's colt unto the choice vine; he washed his garments in wine, and his clothes 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 an haven of ships; and his border shall be unto Zidon.
14 Issachar is a strong ass couching down between two burdens:
15 And he saw that rest was good, and the land that it was pleasant; and bowed his shoulder to bear, and became a servant unto tribute.
16 Dan shall judge his people, as one of the tribes of Israel.
17 Dan shall be a serpent by the way, an adder in the path, that biteth the horse heels, so that his rider shall fall backward.
18 I have waited for thy salvation, O Lord.
19 Gad, a troop shall overcome him: but he shall overcome at the last.
20 Out of Asher his bread shall be fat, and he shall yield royal dainties.
21 Naphtali is a hind let loose: he giveth goodly words.
22 Joseph is a fruitful bough, even a fruitful bough by a well; whose branches run over the wall:
23 The archers have sorely grieved him, and shot at him, and hated him:
24 But his bow abode in strength, and the arms of his hands were made strong by the hands of the mighty God of Jacob; (from thence is the shepherd, the stone of Israel:)
25 Even by the God of thy father, who shall help thee; and by the Almighty, who shall bless thee with blessings of heaven above, blessings of the deep that lieth under, blessings of the breasts, and of the womb:
26 The blessings of thy father have prevailed above the blessings of my progenitors unto the utmost bound of the everlasting hills: they shall be on the head of Joseph, and on the crown of the head of him that was separate from his brethren.
27 Benjamin shall ravin as a wolf: in the morning he shall devour the prey, and at night he shall divide the spoil.
28 All these are the twelve tribes of Israel: and this is it that their father spake unto them, and blessed them; every one according to his blessing he blessed them.
29 And he charged them, and said unto them, I am to be gathered unto my people: bury me with my fathers in the cave that is in the field of Ephron the Hittite,
30 In the cave that is in the field of Machpelah, which is before Mamre, in the land of Canaan, which Abraham bought with the field of Ephron the Hittite for a possession of a buryingplace.
31 There they buried Abraham and Sarah his wife; there they buried Isaac and Rebekah his wife; and there I buried Leah.
32 The purchase of the field and of the cave that is therein was from the children of Heth.
33 And when Jacob had made an end of commanding his sons, he gathered up his feet into the bed, and yielded up the ghost, and was gathered unto his people.
