절	Contemporary English Version (2006)	King James Version
1	Jacob Blesses His Sons Jacob called his sons together and said: My sons, I am Jacob, your father Israel.	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	Come, gather around, as I tell your future.	Gather yourselves together, and hear, ye sons of Jacob; and hearken unto Israel your father.
3	Reuben, you are my oldest, born at the peak of my powers; you were an honored leader.	Reuben, thou art my firstborn, my might, and the beginning of my strength, the excellency of dignity, and the excellency of power:
4	Uncontrollable as a flood, you slept with my wife and disgraced my bed. And so you no longer deserve the place of honor.	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, you are brothers, each a gruesome sword.	Simeon and Levi are brethren; instruments of cruelty are in their habitations.
6	I never want to take part in your plans or deeds. You slaughtered people in your anger, and you crippled cattle for no reason.	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	Now I place a curse on you because of your fierce anger. Your descendants will be scattered among the tribes of Israel.	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, you will be praised by your brothers; they will bow down to you, as you defeat your enemies.	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	My son, you are a lion ready to eat your victim! You are terribly fierce; no one will bother you.	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	You will have power and rule until nations obey you and come bringing gifts.	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	You will tie your donkey to a choice grapevine and wash your clothes in wine from those grapes.	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	Your eyes are darker than wine, your teeth whiter than milk.	His eyes shall be red with wine, and his teeth white with milk.
13	Zebulun, you will settle along the seashore and provide safe harbors as far north as Sidon.	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, you are a strong donkey resting in the meadows.	Issachar is a strong ass couching down between two burdens:
15	You found them so pleasant that you worked too hard and became a slave.	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, you are the tribe that will bring justice to Israel.	Dan shall judge his people, as one of the tribes of Israel.
17	You are a snake that bites the heel of a horse, making its rider fall.	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	Our Lord, I am waiting for you to save us.	I have waited for thy salvation, O Lord.
19	Gad, you will be attacked, then attack your attackers.	Gad, a troop shall overcome him: but he shall overcome at the last.
20	Asher, you will eat food fancy enough for a king.	Out of Asher his bread shall be fat, and he shall yield royal dainties.
21	Naphtali, you are a wild deer with lovely fawns.	Naphtali is a hind let loose: he giveth goodly words.
22	Joseph, you are a fruitful vine growing near a stream and climbing a wall.	Joseph is a fruitful bough, even a fruitful bough by a well; whose branches run over the wall:
23	Enemies attacked with arrows, refusing to show mercy.	The archers have sorely grieved him, and shot at him, and hated him:
24	But you stood your ground, swiftly shooting back with the help of Jacob's God, the All-Powerful One— his name is the Shepherd, Israel's mighty rock.	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	Your help came from the God your father worshiped, from God All-Powerful. God will bless you with rain and streams from the earth; he will bless you with many descendants.	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	My son, the blessings I give are better than the promise of ancient mountains or eternal hills. Joseph, I pray these blessings will come to you, because you are the leader of your brothers.	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, you are a fierce wolf, destroying your enemies morning and evening.	Benjamin shall ravin as a wolf: in the morning he shall devour the prey, and at night he shall divide the spoil.
28	These are the twelve tribes of Israel, and this is how Jacob gave each of them their proper blessings.	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	Jacob's Death Jacob told his sons: Soon I will die, and I want you to bury me in Machpelah Cave. Abraham bought this cave as a burial place from Ephron the Hittite, and it is near the town of Mamre in Canaan. Abraham and Sarah are buried there, and so are Isaac and Rebekah. I buried Leah there too.	There they buried Abraham and Sarah his wife; there they buried Isaac and Rebekah his wife; and there I buried Leah.
32	Both the cave and the land that goes with it were bought from the Hittites.	The purchase of the field and of the cave that is therein was from the children of Heth.
33	When Jacob had finished giving these instructions to his sons, he lay down on his bed and died.	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.
