Genesis 49

DOUAI-RHEIMS	LXX
1 And Jacob called his sons, and said to them: Gather yourselves together that I may tell you the things that shall befall you in the last days.	1 εκαλεσεν δε ιακωβ τους υιους αυτου και ειπεν συναχθητε ινα αναγγειλω υμιν τι απαντησει υμιν επ' εσχατων των ημερων
2 Gather yourselves together, and hear, O ye sons of Jacob, hearken to Israel your father:	2 αθροισθητε και ακουσατε υιοι ιακωβ ακουσατε ισραηλ του πατρος υμων
3 Ruben, my firstborn, thou art my strength, and the beginning of my sorrow: excelling in gifts, greater in command.	3 ρουβην πρωτοτοκος μου συ ισχυς μου και αρχη τεκνων μου σκληρος φερεσθαι και σκληρος αυθαδης
4 Thou art poured out as water, grow thou not: because thou wentest up to thy father's bed, and didst defile his couch.	4 εξυβρισας ως υδωρ μη εκζεσης ανεβης γαρ επι την κοιτην του πατρος σου τοτε εμιανας την στρωμνην ου ανεβης
5 Simeon and Levi brethren: vessels of iniquity, waging war.	5 συμεων και λευι αδελφοι συνετελεσαν αδικιαν εξ αιρεσεως αυτων
6 Let not my soul go into their counsel, nor my glory be in their assembly: because in their fury they slew a man, and in their selfwill they undermined a wall.	6 εις βουλην αυτων μη ελθοι η ψυχη μου και επι τη συστασει αυτων μη ερεισαι τα ηπατα μου οτι εν τω θυμω αυτων απεκτειναν ανθρωπους και εν τη επιθυμια αυτων ενευροκοπησαν ταυρον
7 Cursed be their fury, because it was stubborn: and their wrath because it was cruel: I Will divide them in Jacob, and will scatter them in Israel.	7 επικαταρατος ο θυμος αυτων οτι αυθαδης και η μηνις αυτων οτι εσκληρυνθη διαμεριω αυτους εν ιακωβ και διασπερω αυτους εν ισραηλ
8 Juda, thee shall thy brethren praise: thy hands shall be on the necks of thy enemies: the sons of thy father shall bow down to thee.	8 ιουδα σε αινεσαισαν οι αδελφοι σου αι χειρες σου επι νωτου των εχθρων σου προσκυνησουσιν σοι οι υιοι του πατρος σου
9 Juda is a lion's whelp: to the prey, my son, thou art gone up: resting thou hast couched as a lion, and as a lioness, who shall rouse him?	9 σκυμνος λεοντος ιουδα εκ βλαστου υιε μου ανεβης αναπεσων εκοιμηθης ως λεων και ως σκυμνος τις εγερει αυτον
10 The sceptre shall not be taken away from Juda, nor a ruler from his thigh, till he come that is to be sent, and he shall be the expectation of nations.	10 ουκ εκλειψει αρχων εξ ιουδα και ηγουμενος εκ των μηρων αυτου εως αν ελθη τα αποκειμενα αυτω και αυτος προσδοκια εθνων
11 Tying his foal to the vineyard, and his ass, 0 my son, to the vine. He shall wash his robe in wine, and his garment in the blood of the grape.	11 δεσμευων προς αμπελον τον πωλον αυτου και τη ελικι τον πωλον της ονου αυτου πλυνει εν οινω την στολην αυτου και εν αιματι σταφυλης την περιβολην αυτου
12 His eyes are more beautiful than wine, and his teeth whiter than milk.	12 χαροποι οι οφθαλμοι αυτου απο οινου και λευκοι οι οδοντες αυτου η γαλα
13 Zabulon shall dwell on the sea shore, and in the road of ships, reaching as far as Sidon.	13 ζαβουλων παραλιος κατοικησει και αυτος παρ' ορμον πλοιων και παρατενει εως σιδωνος
14 Issachar shall be a strong ass lying down between the borders.	14 ισσαχαρ το καλον επεθυμησεν αναπαυομενος ανα μεσον των κληρων
15 dummy verses inserted by amos	15 και ιδων την αναπαυσιν οτι καλη και την γην οτι πιων υπεθηκεν τον ωμον αυτου εις το πονειν και εγενηθη ανηρ γεωργος
16 He saw rest that it was good: and the land that it was excellent: and he bowed his shoulder to carry, and became a servant under tribute.	16 δαν κρινει τον εαυτου λαον ωσει και μια φυλη εν ισραηλ
	17 και γενηθητω δαν οφις εφ' οδου εγκαθημενος επι τριβου δακνων πτερναν ιππου και πεσειται ο ιππευς εις τα οπισω
18 Dan shall judge his people like another tribe in Israel.	18 την σωτηριαν περιμενω κυριου
19 Let Dan be a snake in the way, a serpent in the path, that biteth the horse's heels that his rider may fall backward.	19 γαδ πειρατηριον πειρατευσει αυτον αυτος δε πειρατευσει αυτων κατα ποδας
20 I will look for thy salvation, 0 Lord.	20 ασηρ πιων αυτου ο αρτος και αυτος δωσει τρυφην αρχουσιν
21 Gad, being girded, shall fight before him: and he himself shall be girded backward.	21 νεφθαλι στελεχος ανειμενον επιδιδους εν τω γενηματι καλλος
22 Aser, his bread shall be fat, and he shall yield dainties to kings.	22 υιος ηυξημενος ιωσηφ υιος ηυξημενος ζηλωτος υιος μου νεωτατος προς με αναστρεψον
23 Nephtali, a hart let loose, and giving words of beauty.	23 εις ον διαβουλευομενοι ελοιδορουν και ενειχον αυτω κυριοι τοξευματων
24 Joseph is a growing son, a growing son and comely to behold; the daughters run to and fro upon the wall.	24 και συνετριβη μετα κρατους τα τοξα αυτων και εξελυθη τα νευρα βραχιονων χειρων αυτων δια χειρα δυναστου ιακωβ εκειθεν ο κατισχυσας ισραηλ
25 But they that held darts provoked him, and quarrelled with him, and envied him.	25 παρα θεου του πατρος σου και εβοηθησεν σοι ο θεος ο εμος και ευλογησεν σε ευλογιαν ουρανου ανωθεν και ευλογιαν γης εχουσης παντα ενεκεν ευλογιας μαστων και μητρας
26 His bow rested upon the strong, and the bands of his arms and his hands were loosed, by the hands of the mighty one of Jacob: thence he came forth a pastor, the stone of Israel.	26 ευλογιας πατρος σου και μητρος σου υπερισχυσεν επ' ευλογιαις ορεων μονιμων και επ' ευλογιαις θινων αεναων εσονται επι κεφαλην ιωσηφ και επι κορυφης ων ηγησατο αδελφων
27 dummy verses inserted by amos	27 βενιαμιν λυκος αρπαξ το πρωινον εδεται ετι και εις το εσπερας διαδωσει τροφην
28 The God of thy father shall be thy helper, and the Almighty shall bless thee with the blessings of heaven above, with the blessings of the deep that lieth beneath, with the blessings of the breasts and of the womb.	28 παντες ουτοι υιοι ιακωβ δωδεκα και ταυτα ελαλησεν αυτοις ο πατηρ αυτων και ευλογησεν αυτους εκαστον κατα την ευλογιαν αυτου ευλογησεν αυτους
	29 και ειπεν αυτοις εγω προστιθεμαι προς τον εμον λαον θαψατε με μετα των πατερων μου εν τω σπηλαιω ο εστιν εν τω αγρω εφρων του χετταιου
30 The blessings of thy father are strengthened with the blessings of his fathers: until the desire of the everlasting hills should come; may they be upon the head of Joseph, and upon the crown of the Nazarite among his brethren.	30 εν τω σπηλαιω τω διπλω τω απεναντι μαμβρη εν τη γη χανααν ο εκτησατο αβρααμ το σπηλαιον παρα εφρων του χετταιου εν κτησει μνημειου
31 Benjamin a ravenous wolf, in the morning shall eat the prey, and in the evening shall divide the spoil.	31 εκει εθαψαν αβρααμ και σαρραν την γυναικα αυτου εκει εθαψαν ισαακ και ρεβεκκαν την γυναικα αυτου και εκει εθαψα λειαν
32 All these are the twelve tribes of Israel: these things their father spoke to them, and he blessed every one, with their proper blessings.	32 εν κτησει του αγρου και του σπηλαιου του οντος εν αυτω παρα των υιων χετ
33 And he charged them, saying: I am now going to be gathered to my people : bury me with my fathers in the double cave, which is in the field of Ephron the Hethite,	33 και κατεπαυσεν ιακωβ επιτασσων τοις υιοις αυτου και εξαρας τους ποδας αυτου επι την κλινην εξελιπεν και προσετεθη προς τον λαον αυτου
34 Over against Mambre in the land of Chanaan, which Abraham bought togather with the field of Ephron the Hethite for a possession to bury in.
