يعقوب يبارك بنيه | |
| 1 وَدَعَا يَعْقُوبُ بَنِيهِ وَقَالَ: «اجْتَمِعُوا لأُنْبِئَكُمْ بِمَا يُصِيبُكُمْ فِي آخِرِ الأَيَّامِ. | 1 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 اجْتَمِعُوا وَاسْمَعُوا يَا بَنِي يَعْقُوبَ، وَاصْغَوْا إِلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ أَبِيكُمْ: | 2 Gather yourselves together, and hear, ye sons of Jacob; and hearken unto Israel your father. |
|
| 3 رَأُوبَيْنُ، أَنْتَ بِكْرِي، قُوَّتِي وَأَوَّلُ قُدْرَتِي، فَضْلُ الرِّفْعَةِ وَفَضْلُ الْعِزِّ. | 3 Reuben, thou art my firstborn, my might, and the beginning of my strength, the excellency of dignity, and the excellency of power: |
|
4 فَائِرًا كَالْمَاءِ لاَ تَتَفَضَّلُ، لأَنَّكَ صَعِدْتَ عَلَى مَضْجَعِ أَبِيكَ. حِينَئِذٍ دَنَّسْتَهُ. عَلَى فِرَاشِي صَعِدَ.  | 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 شِمْعُونُ وَلاَوِي أَخَوَانِ، آلاَتُ ظُلْمٍ سُيُوفُهُمَا. | 5 Simeon and Levi are brethren; instruments of cruelty are in their habitations. |
|
| 6 فِي مَجْلِسِهِمَا لاَ تَدْخُلُ نَفْسِي. بِمَجْمَعِهِمَا لاَ تَتَّحِدُ كَرَامَتِي. لأَنَّهُمَا فِي غَضَبِهِمَا قَتَلاَ إِنْسَانًا، وَفِي رِضَاهُمَا عَرْقَبَا ثَوْرًا. | 6 O my soul, come not thou into their secret; unto their assembly, mine honor, be not thou united: for in their anger they slew a man, and in their self-will they digged down a wall. |
|
| 7 مَلْعُونٌ غَضَبُهُمَا فَإِنَّهُ شَدِيدٌ، وَسَخَطُهُمَا فَإِنَّهُ قَاسٍ. أُقَسِّمُهُمَا فِي يَعْقُوبَ، وَأُفَرِّقُهُمَا فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. | 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 يَهُوذَا، إِيَّاكَ يَحْمَدُ إِخْوَتُكَ، يَدُكَ عَلَى قَفَا أَعْدَائِكَ، يَسْجُدُ لَكَ بَنُو أَبِيكَ. | 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 يَهُوذَا جَرْوُ أَسَدٍ، مِنْ فَرِيسَةٍ صَعِدْتَ يَا ابْنِي، جَثَا وَرَبَضَ كَأَسَدٍ وَكَلَبْوَةٍ. مَنْ يُنْهِضُهُ؟ | 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 لاَ يَزُولُ قَضِيبٌ مِنْ يَهُوذَا وَمُشْتَرِعٌ مِنْ بَيْنِ رِجْلَيْهِ حَتَّى يَأْتِيَ شِيلُونُ وَلَهُ يَكُونُ خُضُوعُ شُعُوبٍ. | 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 رَابِطًا بِالْكَرْمَةِ جَحْشَهُ، وَبِالْجَفْنَةِ ابْنَ أَتَانِهِ، غَسَلَ بِالْخَمْرِ لِبَاسَهُ، وَبِدَمِ الْعِنَبِ ثَوْبَهُ. | 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 مُسْوَدُّ الْعَيْنَيْنِ مِنَ الْخَمْرِ، وَمُبْيَضُّ الأَسْنَانِ مِنَ اللَّبَنِ. | 12 His eyes shall be red with wine, and his teeth white with milk. |
|
| 13 زَبُولُونُ، عِنْدَ سَاحِلِ الْبَحْرِ يَسْكُنُ، وَهُوَ عِنْدَ سَاحِلِ السُّفُنِ، وَجَانِبُهُ عِنْدَ صَيْدُونَ. | 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 يَسَّاكَرُ، حِمَارٌ جَسِيمٌ رَابِضٌ بَيْنَ الْحَظَائِرِ. | 14 Issachar is a strong ass couching down between two burdens: |
|
| 15 فَرَأَى الْمَحَلَّ أَنَّهُ حَسَنٌ، وَالأَرْضَ أَنَّهَا نَزِهَةٌ، فَأَحْنَى كَتِفَهُ لِلْحِمْلِ وَصَارَ لِلْجِزْيَةِ عَبْدًا. | 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 دَانُ، يَدِينُ شَعْبَهُ كَأَحَدِ أَسْبَاطِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | 16 Dan shall judge his people, as one of the tribes of Israel. |
|
| 17 يَكُونُ دَانُ حَيَّةً عَلَى الطَّرِيقِ، أُفْعُوانًا عَلَى السَّبِيلِ، يَلْسَعُ عَقِبَيِ الْفَرَسِ فَيَسْقُطُ رَاكِبُهُ إِلَى الْوَرَاءِ. | 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 لِخَلاَصِكَ انْتَظَرْتُ يَا رَبُّ. | 18 I have waited for thy salvation, O LORD. |
|
| 19 جَادُ، يَزْحَمُهُ جَيْشٌ، وَلكِنَّهُ يَزْحَمُ مُؤَخَّرَهُ. | 19 Gad, a troop shall overcome him: but he shall overcome at the last. |
|
| 20 أَشِيرُ، خُبْزُهُ سَمِينٌ وَهُوَ يُعْطِي لَذَّاتِ مُلُوكٍ. | 20 Out of Asher his bread shall be fat, and he shall yield royal dainties. |
|
| 21 نَفْتَالِي، أَيِّلَةٌ مُسَيَّبَةٌ يُعْطِي أَقْوَالاً حَسَنَةً. | 21 Naphtali is a hind let loose: he giveth goodly words. |
|
| 22 يُوسُفُ، غُصْنُ شَجَرَةٍ مُثْمِرَةٍ، غُصْنُ شَجَرَةٍ مُثْمِرَةٍ عَلَى عَيْنٍ. أَغْصَانٌ قَدِ ارْتَفَعَتْ فَوْقَ حَائِطٍ. | 22 Joseph is a fruitful bough, even a fruitful bough by a well; whose branches run over the wall: |
|
| 23 فَمَرَّرَتْهُ وَرَمَتْهُ وَاضْطَهَدَتْهُ أَرْبَابُ السِّهَامِ. | 23 The archers have sorely grieved him, and shot at him, and hated him: |
|
| 24 وَلكِنْ ثَبَتَتْ بِمَتَانَةٍ قَوْسُهُ، وَتَشَدَّدَتْ سَوَاعِدُ يَدَيْهِ. مِنْ يَدَيْ عَزِيزِ يَعْقُوبَ، مِنْ هُنَاكَ، مِنَ الرَّاعِي صَخْرِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، | 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 مِنْ إِلهِ أَبِيكَ الَّذِي يُعِينُكَ، وَمِنَ الْقَادِرِ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ الَّذِي يُبَارِكُكَ، تَأْتِي بَرَكَاتُ السَّمَاءِ مِنْ فَوْقُ، وَبَرَكَاتُ الْغَمْرِ الرَّابِضِ تَحْتُ. بَرَكَاتُ الثَّدْيَيْنِ وَالرَّحِمِ. | 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 بَرَكَاتُ أَبِيكَ فَاقَتْ عَلَى بَرَكَاتِ أَبَوَيَّ. إِلَى مُنْيَةِ الآكَامِ الدَّهْرِيَّةِ تَكُونُ عَلَى رَأْسِ يُوسُفَ، وَعَلَى قِمَّةِ نَذِيرِ إِخْوَتِهِ. | 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 بَنْيَامِينُ ذِئْبٌ يَفْتَرِسُ. فِي الصَّبَاحِ يَأْكُلُ غَنِيمَةً، وَعِنْدَ الْمَسَاءِ يُقَسِّمُ نَهْبًا». | 27 Benjamin shall raven as a wolf: in the morning he shall devour the prey, and at night he shall divide the spoil. |
|
| 28 جَمِيعُ هؤُلاَءِ هُمْ أَسْبَاطُ إِسْرَائِيلَ الاثْنَا عَشَرَ. وَهذَا مَا كَلَّمَهُمْ بِهِ أَبُوهُمْ وَبَارَكَهُمْ. كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ بِحَسَبِ بَرَكَتِهِ بَارَكَهُمْ. | 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. |
|
موت يعقوب | |
| 29 وَأَوْصَاهُمْ وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «أَنَا أَنْضَمُّ إِلَى قَوْمِي. اِدْفِنُونِي عِنْدَ آبَائِي فِي الْمَغَارَةِ الَّتِي فِي حَقْلِ عِفْرُونَ الْحِثِّيِّ. | 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 فِي الْمَغَارَةِ الَّتِي فِي حَقْلِ الْمَكْفِيلَةِ، الَّتِي أَمَامَ مَمْرَا فِي أَرْضِ كَنْعَانَ، الَّتِي اشْتَرَاهَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ مَعَ الْحَقْلِ مِنْ عِفْرُونَ الْحِثِّيِّ مُلْكَ قَبْرٍ. | 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 هُنَاكَ دَفَنُوا إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَسَارَةَ امْرَأَتَهُ. هُنَاكَ دَفَنُوا إِسْحَاقَ وَرِفْقَةَ امْرَأَتَهُ، وَهُنَاكَ دَفَنْتُ لَيْئَةَ. | 31 There they buried Abraham and Sarah his wife; there they buried Isaac and Rebekah his wife; and there I buried Leah. |
|
| 32 شِرَاءُ الْحَقْلِ وَالْمَغَارَةِ الَّتِي فِيهِ كَانَ مِنْ بَنِي حِثَّ». | 32 The purchase of the field and of the cave that is therein was from the children of Heth. |
|
| 33 وَلَمَّا فَرَغَ يَعْقُوبُ مِنْ تَوْصِيَةِ بَنِيهِ ضَمَّ رِجْلَيْهِ إِلَى السَّرِيرِ، وَأَسْلَمَ الرُّوحَ وَانْضَمَّ إِلَى قَوْمِهِ. | 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. |
