Genesis 49
1 Then Jacob summoned his sons, and said: "Gather yourselves together so that I may tell you what will happen to you in the days to come.
Призва же Иаков сыны своя и рече им: соберитеся, да возвещу вам, что срящет вас в последния дни:
2 Assemble yourselves and hear, you sons of Jacob. Listen to Israel, your father.
соберитеся и послушайте мене, сынове Иаковли, послушайте Израиля, послушайте отца вашего.
3 Reuben, you are my firstborn, my strength, and the the firstfruits of my virility, preeminent in dignity and preeminent in power.
Рувим, первенец мой, ты крепость моя и начало чад моих: жесток терпети и жесток упорник:
4 Uncontrolled as the waters, you will not have excel, because you went up to your father's bed, you went up and defiled my couch.
досадил еси яко вода, да не воскипиши: возшел бо еси на ложе отца твоего, тогда осквернил еси постелю, идеже возшел еси.
5 Simeon and Levi are brothers. Their swords are weapons of violence.
Симеон и Левий братия совершиста обиду от воли своея:
6 May I never enter their council. May my honor never be joined with their assembly. For in their anger they killed men, and for pleasure they hamstrung oxen.
в совет их да не приидет душа моя, и к собранию их да не прилепятся внутренняя моя: яко во гневе своем избиста человеки, и в похоти своей пререзаста жилы юнца:
7 Cursed be their anger, for it has been fierce, and their fury, for it was cruel. I will divide them in Jacob, and scatter them in Israel.
проклята ярость их, яко упорна, и гнев их, яко ожесточися: разделю их во Иакове и разсею их во Израили.
8 Judah, your brothers will praise you. Your hand will be on the neck of your enemies. Your father's sons will bow down before you.
Иудо, тебе похвалят братия твоя, руце твои на плещу враг твоих: поклонятся тебе сынове отца твоего:
9 Judah is a lion's cub. From the prey, my son, you rise up. Like a lion he crouches and lies down, as a lioness. Who will rouse him up?
скимен львов Иуда: от леторасли, сыне мой, возшел еси: возлег уснул еси яко лев и яко скимен: кто возбудит его?
10 The scepter will not depart from Judah, nor the ruler's staff from between his feet, until he comes to whom it belongs. And it is he whom the peoples will obey.
Не оскудеет князь от Иуды и вождь от чресл его, дондеже приидут отложеная Ему, и Той чаяние языков:
11 Binding his foal to the vine, and his donkey's colt to the choice vine. He will wash his garments in wine, and his robes in the blood of grapes.
привязуяй к лозе жребя свое и к винничию жребца осляте своего, исперет вином одежду свою и кровию гроздия одеяние свое:
12 His eyes will be darker than wine, and his teeth whiter than milk.
радостотворны очи его паче вина, и белы зубы его паче млека.
13 Zebulun will dwell at the seashore, and he will be a harbor for ships, and his border will be at Sidon.
Завулон при мори вселится, и той на пристанищи кораблей, и прострется даже до Сидона.
14 Issachar is a strong donkey lying down between the saddlebags.
Иссахар доброе возжела, почивая посреде пределов,
15 When he sees a good resting place, that the land is pleasant, he will bend his back to the burden, and become a slave doing forced labor.
и видев покой, яко добр, и землю, яко тучна, подложи рамы свои на труд, и бысть муж земледелец.
16 Dan will judge his people as one of the tribes of Israel.
Дан судити имать люди своя, яко и едино племя во Израили,
17 Dan will be a serpent on the road, a viper by the path, that bites the horse's heels so that his rider falls backward.
и да будет Дан змий на пути, седяй на распутии, угрызая пяту конску:
18 I wait for your salvation, God.
и падет конник вспять, спасения ждый Господня.
19 Gad will be attacked by raiders, but he will raid at their heels.
Гад, искушение искусит его: он же искусит того при ногах.
20 Asher's food will be rich, and he will provide royal delicacies.
Асир, тучен его хлеб, и той даст пищу князем.
21 Naphtali is a doe set free that bears beautiful fawns.
Неффалим стебль распущающаяся, издаяй во отрасли доброту.
22 Joseph is a fruitful son, a fruitful son by a spring. His branches run over a wall.
Сын возращен Иосиф, сын возращен мой ревностный, сын мой юнейший, ко мне обратися:
23 The archers will attack him with bitterness, and shoot at him, and harass him.
на негоже советующе укоряху и наляцаху нань господие стреляний,
24 Yet his bow will remain steady, and his arms will be made agile by the hands of the Mighty One of Jacob, by the name of the Shepherd, the Rock of Israel,
и сотрошася с крепостию луки их, и разслабеша жилы мышцей рук их, рукою сильнаго Иакова: оттуду укрепися Израиль от Бога отца твоего,
25 by the God of your father, who will help you, and El Shaddai, who will bless you with blessings of the sky above, blessings of the deep that lies below, and blessings of the breasts and of the womb.
и поможе тебе Бог мой, и благослови тя благословением небесным свыше и благословением земли и имущия вся: благословения ради сосцев и ложесн,
26 The blessings of your father are greater than the blessings of the ancient mountains, and the bounty of the everlasting hills. They will be on the head of Joseph, and on the brow of the prince among his brothers.
благословения отца твоего и матере твоея: преодоле паче благословения гор пребывающих и благословения холмов вечных: будут на главе Иосифове и на версе (главы) братий, имиже обладаше.
27 Benjamin is a ravenous wolf. In the morning he will devour the prey, and at evening he will divide the plunder."
Вениамин волк хищник, рано яст еще и на вечер дает пищу.
28 All these are the twelve tribes of Israel, and this is what their father said to them when he blessed them. He blessed each one with his own individual blessing.
Вси сии сынове Иаковли дванадесять: и сия глагола им отец их, и благослови их: коегождо по благословению его благослови их,
29 Then he instructed them, and said to them, "I am to be gathered to my people. Bury me with my fathers in the cave that is in the field of Ephron the Hethite,
и рече им: аз прилагаюся к людем моим: погребите мя со отцы моими в пещере, яже есть в селе Ефрона Хеттеанина,
30 in the cave that is in the field of Machpelah, which is near Mamre in the land of Canaan, which Abraham bought along with the field from Ephron the Hethite as a burial place.
в пещере Сугубей, яже прямо Мамврии в земли Ханаани, юже стяжа Авраам пещеру у Ефрона Хеттеанина в стяжание гроба.
31 There they buried Abraham and his wife Sarah. There they buried Isaac and his wife Rebekah, and there I buried Leah.
Тамо погребоша Авраама и Сарру жену его, тамо погребоша Исаака и Ревекку жену его, тамо погребоша Лию,
32 The field and the cave that is in it were purchased from the sons of Heth."
в стяжании села и пещеры, яже есть в нем у сынов Хеттеовых.
33 When Jacob finished instructing his sons, he drew his legs up into the bed and breathed his last, and was gathered to his people.
И преста Иаков завещая сыном своим, и возложив Иаков нозе свои на одр умре, и приложися к людем своим.
