< اَلتَّكْوِينُ 49 >

وَدَعَا يَعْقُوبُ بَنِيهِ وَقَالَ: «ٱجْتَمِعُوا لِأُنْبِئَكُمْ بِمَا يُصِيبُكُمْ فِي آخِرِ ٱلْأَيَّامِ. ١ 1
And Jacob called unto his sons, and said: Gather yourselves together, that I may tell you that which shall befall you in the latter days.
ٱجْتَمِعُوا وَٱسْمَعُوا يَا بَنِي يَعْقُوبَ، وَٱصْغَوْا إِلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ أَبِيكُمْ: ٢ 2
Assemble yourselves, and hear, ye sons of Jacob; And hearken unto Israel your father.
رَأُوبَيْنُ، أَنْتَ بِكْرِي، قُوَّتِي وَأَوَّلُ قُدْرَتِي، فَضْلُ ٱلرِّفْعَةِ وَفَضْلُ ٱلْعِزِّ. ٣ 3
Reuben, thou art my firstborn, my might, and the beginning of my strength; The excellency of dignity, and the excellency of power.
فَائِرًا كَٱلْمَاءِ لَا تَتَفَضَّلُ، لِأَنَّكَ صَعِدْتَ عَلَى مَضْجَعِ أَبِيكَ. حِينَئِذٍ دَنَّسْتَهُ. عَلَى فِرَاشِي صَعِدَ. ٤ 4
Unstable as water, thou shalt not have the excellency; Because thou wentest up to thy father’s bed: Then defiledst thou it: he went up to my couch.
شِمْعُونُ وَلَاوِي أَخَوَانِ، آلَاتُ ظُلْمٍ سُيُوفُهُمَا. ٥ 5
Simeon and Levi are brethren; Weapons of violence are their swords.
فِي مَجْلِسِهِمَا لَا تَدْخُلُ نَفْسِي. بِمَجْمَعِهِمَا لَا تَتَّحِدُ كَرَامَتِي. لِأَنَّهُمَا فِي غَضَبِهِمَا قَتَلَا إِنْسَانًا، وَفِي رِضَاهُمَا عَرْقَبَا ثَوْرًا. ٦ 6
O my soul, come not thou into their council; Unto their assembly, my glory, be not thou united; For in their anger they slew a man, And in their selfwill they houghed an ox.
مَلْعُونٌ غَضَبُهُمَا فَإِنَّهُ شَدِيدٌ، وَسَخَطُهُمَا فَإِنَّهُ قَاسٍ. أُقَسِّمُهُمَا فِي يَعْقُوبَ، وَأُفَرِّقُهُمَا فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. ٧ 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.
يَهُوذَا، إِيَّاكَ يَحْمَدُ إِخْوَتُكَ، يَدُكَ عَلَى قَفَا أَعْدَائِكَ، يَسْجُدُ لَكَ بَنُو أَبِيكَ. ٨ 8
Judah, thee shall thy brethren praise: Thy hand shall be on the neck of thine enemies; Thy father’s sons shall bow down before thee.
يَهُوذَا جَرْوُ أَسَدٍ، مِنْ فَرِيسَةٍ صَعِدْتَ يَا ٱبْنِي، جَثَا وَرَبَضَ كَأَسَدٍ وَكَلَبْوَةٍ. مَنْ يُنْهِضُهُ؟ ٩ 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 a lioness; who shall rouse him up?
لَا يَزُولُ قَضِيبٌ مِنْ يَهُوذَا وَمُشْتَرِعٌ مِنْ بَيْنِ رِجْلَيْهِ حَتَّى يَأْتِيَ شِيلُونُ وَلَهُ يَكُونُ خُضُوعُ شُعُوبٍ. ١٠ 10
The sceptre shall not depart from Judah, Nor the ruler’s staff from between his feet, Until Shiloh come; And unto him shall the obedience of the peoples be.
رَابِطًا بِٱلْكَرْمَةِ جَحْشَهُ، وَبِالْجَفْنَةِ ٱبْنَ أَتَانِهِ، غَسَلَ بِٱلْخَمْرِ لِبَاسَهُ، وَبِدَمِ ٱلْعِنَبِ ثَوْبَهُ. ١١ 11
Binding his foal unto the vine, And his ass’s colt unto the choice vine; He hath washed his garments in wine, And his vesture in the blood of grapes:
مُسْوَدُّ ٱلْعَيْنَيْنِ مِنَ ٱلْخَمْرِ، وَمُبْيَضُّ ٱلْأَسْنَانِ مِنَ ٱللَّبَنِ. ١٢ 12
His eyes shall be red with wine, And his teeth white with milk.
زَبُولُونُ، عِنْدَ سَاحِلِ ٱلْبَحْرِ يَسْكُنُ، وَهُوَ عِنْدَ سَاحِلِ ٱلسُّفُنِ، وَجَانِبُهُ عِنْدَ صَيْدُونَ. ١٣ 13
Zebulun shall dwell at the haven of the sea: And he shall be for an haven of ships; And his border shall be upon Zidon.
يَسَّاكَرُ، حِمَارٌ جَسِيمٌ رَابِضٌ بَيْنَ ٱلْحَظَائِرِ. ١٤ 14
Issachar is a strong ass, Couching down between the sheepfolds:
فَرَأَى ٱلْمَحَلَّ أَنَّهُ حَسَنٌ، وَٱلْأَرْضَ أَنَّهَا نَزِهَةٌ، فَأَحْنَى كَتِفَهُ لِلْحِمْلِ وَصَارَ لِلْجِزْيَةِ عَبْدًا. ١٥ 15
And he saw a resting place that it was good, And the land that it was pleasant; And he bowed his shoulder to bear, And became a servant under taskwork.
دَانُ، يَدِينُ شَعْبَهُ كَأَحَدِ أَسْبَاطِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. ١٦ 16
Dan shall judge his people, As one of the tribes of Israel.
يَكُونُ دَانُ حَيَّةً عَلَى ٱلطَّرِيقِ، أُفْعُوانًا عَلَى ٱلسَّبِيلِ، يَلْسَعُ عَقِبَيِ ٱلْفَرَسِ فَيَسْقُطُ رَاكِبُهُ إِلَى ٱلْوَرَاءِ. ١٧ 17
Dan shall be a serpent in the way, An adder in the path, That biteth the horse’s heels, So that his rider falleth backward.
لِخَلَاصِكَ ٱنْتَظَرْتُ يَا رَبُّ. ١٨ 18
I have waited for thy salvation, O LORD.
جَادُ، يَزْحَمُهُ جَيْشٌ، وَلَكِنَّهُ يَزْحَمُ مُؤَخَّرَهُ. ١٩ 19
Gad, a troop shall press upon him: But he shall press upon their heel.
أَشِيرُ، خُبْزُهُ سَمِينٌ وَهُوَ يُعْطِي لَذَّاتِ مُلُوكٍ. ٢٠ 20
Out of Asher his bread shall be fat, And he shall yield royal dainties.
نَفْتَالِي، أَيِّلَةٌ مُسَيَّبَةٌ يُعْطِي أَقْوَالًا حَسَنَةً. ٢١ 21
Naphtali is a hind let loose: He giveth goodly words.
يُوسُفُ، غُصْنُ شَجَرَةٍ مُثْمِرَةٍ، غُصْنُ شَجَرَةٍ مُثْمِرَةٍ عَلَى عَيْنٍ. أَغْصَانٌ قَدِ ٱرْتَفَعَتْ فَوْقَ حَائِطٍ. ٢٢ 22
Joseph is a fruitful bough, A fruitful bough by a fountain; His branches run over the wall.
فَمَرَّرَتْهُ وَرَمَتْهُ وَٱضْطَهَدَتْهُ أَرْبَابُ ٱلسِّهَامِ. ٢٣ 23
The archers have sorely grieved him, And shot at him, and persecuted him:
وَلَكِنْ ثَبَتَتْ بِمَتَانَةٍ قَوْسُهُ، وَتَشَدَّدَتْ سَوَاعِدُ يَدَيْهِ. مِنْ يَدَيْ عَزِيزِ يَعْقُوبَ، مِنْ هُنَاكَ، مِنَ ٱلرَّاعِي صَخْرِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، ٢٤ 24
But his bow abode in strength, And the arms of his hands were made strong, By the hands of the Mighty One of Jacob, (From thence is the shepherd, the stone of Israel, )
مِنْ إِلَهِ أَبِيكَ ٱلَّذِي يُعِينُكَ، وَمِنَ ٱلْقَادِرِ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ ٱلَّذِي يُبَارِكُكَ، تَأْتِي بَرَكَاتُ ٱلسَّمَاءِ مِنْ فَوْقُ، وَبَرَكَاتُ ٱلْغَمْرِ ٱلرَّابِضِ تَحْتُ. بَرَكَاتُ ٱلثَّدْيَيْنِ وَٱلرَّحِمِ. ٢٥ 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 coucheth beneath, Blessings of the breasts, and of the womb.
بَرَكَاتُ أَبِيكَ فَاقَتْ عَلَى بَرَكَاتِ أَبَوَيَّ. إِلَى مُنْيَةِ ٱلْآكَامِ ٱلدَّهْرِيَّةِ تَكُونُ عَلَى رَأْسِ يُوسُفَ، وَعَلَى قِمَّةِ نَذِيرِ إِخْوَتِهِ. ٢٦ 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.
بَنْيَامِينُ ذِئْبٌ يَفْتَرِسُ. فِي ٱلصَّبَاحِ يَأْكُلُ غَنِيمَةً، وَعِنْدَ ٱلْمَسَاءِ يُقَسِّمُ نَهْبًا». ٢٧ 27
Benjamin is a wolf that ravineth: In the morning he shall devour the prey, And at even he shall divide the spoil.
جَمِيعُ هَؤُلَاءِ هُمْ أَسْبَاطُ إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلِٱثْنَا عَشَرَ. وَهَذَا مَا كَلَّمَهُمْ بِهِ أَبُوهُمْ وَبَارَكَهُمْ. كُلُّ وَاحِدٍ بِحَسَبِ بَرَكَتِهِ بَارَكَهُمْ. ٢٨ 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.
وَأَوْصَاهُمْ وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «أَنَا أَنْضَمُّ إِلَى قَوْمِي. اِدْفِنُونِي عِنْدَ آبَائِي فِي ٱلْمَغَارَةِ ٱلَّتِي فِي حَقْلِ عِفْرُونَ ٱلْحِثِّيِّ. ٢٩ 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,
فِي ٱلْمَغَارَةِ ٱلَّتِي فِي حَقْلِ ٱلْمَكْفِيلَةِ، ٱلَّتِي أَمَامَ مَمْرَا فِي أَرْضِ كَنْعَانَ، ٱلَّتِي ٱشْتَرَاهَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ مَعَ ٱلْحَقْلِ مِنْ عِفْرُونَ ٱلْحِثِّيِّ مُلْكَ قَبْرٍ. ٣٠ 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 from Ephron the Hittite for a possession of a buryingplace:
هُنَاكَ دَفَنُوا إِبْرَاهِيمَ وَسَارَةَ ٱمْرَأَتَهُ. هُنَاكَ دَفَنُوا إِسْحَاقَ وَرِفْقَةَ ٱمْرَأَتَهُ، وَهُنَاكَ دَفَنْتُ لَيْئَةَ. ٣١ 31
there they buried Abraham and Sarah his wife; there they buried Isaac and Rebekah his wife; and there I buried Leah:
شِرَاءُ ٱلْحَقْلِ وَٱلْمَغَارَةِ ٱلَّتِي فِيهِ كَانَ مِنْ بَنِي حِثَّ». ٣٢ 32
the field and the cave that is therein, which was purchased from the children of Heth.
وَلَمَّا فَرَغَ يَعْقُوبُ مِنْ تَوْصِيَةِ بَنِيهِ ضَمَّ رِجْلَيْهِ إِلَى ٱلسَّرِيرِ، وَأَسْلَمَ ٱلرُّوحَ وَٱنْضَمَّ إِلَى قَوْمِهِ. ٣٣ 33
And when Jacob made an end of charging his sons, he gathered up his feet into the bed, and yielded up the ghost, and was gathered unto his people.
