1 Jacob el pangoneni wen natul ac fahk, “Kilukeni nu yuruk, ac nga fah fahk nu suwos ma ac sikyak nu suwos ke pacl fahsru uh:
Jacob called to his sons, and said: “Gather yourselves together, that I may tell you that which will happen to you in the days to come.
2 “Fahsreni nu sie, wen natul Jacob, ac porongo. Porongo kas lal Israel, papa tomowos.
Assemble yourselves, and hear, you sons of Jacob. Listen to Israel, your father.
3 “Reuben, wounse mukul nutik, kom pa ku luk, Kom pa fahko se emeet ke pacl in fusr luk. Kom pa fwacfa ac watwen sin wen nutik nukewa.
“Reuben, you are my firstborn, my might, and the beginning of my strength, excelling in dignity, and excelling in power.
4 Kom oana sie sronot fokoko, Tusruktu ac tia kom pa yohk sripa oemeet, Mweyen kom tuh ona yurin mutan kulansap kiuk Ac aktaekyala mwe oan lun papa tomom.
Boiling over like water, you shall not excel, because you went up to your father’s bed, then defiled it. He went up to my couch.
5 “Simeon ac Levi eltal tamulel. Eltal orekmakin mwe anwuk natultal in orek lokoalok sulallal.
“Simeon and Levi are brothers. Their swords are weapons of violence.
6 Nga fah tia welultal in sramsram lukma laltal, Ac tia pac welultal ke pacl in pwapa laltal, Mweyen kasrkusrak laltal som nwe ke sun uniya mwet, Ac eltal aksukapasyela cow mukul oana mwe pwar.
My soul, don’t come into their council. My glory, don’t be united to their assembly; for in their anger they killed men. In their self-will they hamstrung cattle.
7 Lela in selngawiyuk kasrkusrak laltal, mweyen arulana upala, Ac nu fin folo laltal, mweyen arulana sulallal. Nga fah luseloselik fin acn Israel nufon. Nga fah siseloselik nu inmasrlon mwet 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, mwet lim fah kaksakin kom. Poum fah iseya kwawen mwet lokoalok lom. Mwet lim fah pasrla ye motom.
“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.

Judah is a lion’s cub. From the prey, my son, you have gone up. He stooped down, he crouched as a lion, as a lioness. Who will rouse him up?
10 Scepter lun tokosra ac fah oanna sel Judah, Ac fwilin tulik natul fah leum fin mwet Israel pacl nukewa. Mutanfahl ac fah use mwe takma nu sel, Ac pasrla ye mutal ac aksol.
The sceptre will not depart from Judah, nor the ruler’s staff from between his feet, until he comes to whom it belongs. The obedience of the peoples will be to him.
11 El kapriya donkey fusr natul nu ke soko oa in grape, Nu ke oa in grape soko ma wo emeet. El oul nuknuk lal in wain su srusra oana srah.
Binding his foal to the vine, his donkey’s colt to the choice vine, he has washed his garments in wine, his robes in the blood of grapes.
12 Atronmutal srusrala ke nim wain; Ac wihsel fasrfasrla ke nim milk.
His eyes will be red with wine, his teeth white with milk.
13 “Zebulon el ac fah muta sisken meoa. Molsron in acn sel ac fah acn in kawuk lun oak lulap, Ac masrol lun acn sel ac fah sun acn Sidon.

He saw a resting place, that it was good, the land, that it was pleasant. He bows his shoulder to the burden, and becomes a servant doing forced labour.

“Dan will judge his people, as one of the tribes of Israel.

Dan will be a serpent on the trail, an adder in the path, that bites the horse’s heels, so that his rider falls backward.

The archers have severely grieved him, shot at him, and persecuted him:
24 Tusruktu mwe pisr natul uh tiana mukuikui, Ac paol akkeyeyuk ac aksuwosyeyuk Ke ku lun God Kulana lal Jacob, Su Mwet Shepherd ac Mwet Loango lun Israel.
But his bow remained strong. The arms of his hands were made strong, by the hands of the Mighty One of Jacob, (from there is the shepherd, the stone of Israel),
25 God lun papa tomom pa kasrekom, God Kulana pa akinsewowoye kom Ke mwe insewowo ke af lucng me Ac ke kof loal ye faclu, Mwe insewowo ke tulik puspis ac ke un kosro puspis,
even by the God of your father, who will help you, by the Almighty, who will bless you, with blessings of heaven above, blessings of the deep that lies below, blessings of the breasts, and of the womb.
26 Mwe insewowo ke wheat ac ke ros uh, Mwe insewowo ke eol ma oan oemeet me, Ac ke ma wolana su tuku ke eol srisrik su ac oan nwe tok. Lela mwe insewowo inge in oan fin sifal Joseph, Fin mutunsron sie su pisrla inmasrlon mwet wial.
The blessings of your father have prevailed above the blessings of my ancestors, above the boundaries of the ancient hills. They will be on the head of Joseph, on the crown of the head of him who is separated from his brothers.

“Benjamin is a ravenous wolf. In the morning he will devour the prey. At evening he will divide the plunder.”
28 Sruf singoul luo lun Israel pa inge, ac pa inge kas in wilkas lun papa tumalos ke el sang kas in akinsewowo lal nu selos, fal nu sin kais sie selos.
All these are the twelve tribes of Israel, and this is what their father spoke to them, and blessed them. He blessed everyone according to his own blessing.
29 Na Jacob el sapkin nu sin wen natul nukewa, “Inge ke nga ac misa ac som weang mwet luk somla, komtal fah pukinyuwi yurin papa tumuk in luf se ma oan ke acn sel Ephron mwet Hit,
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 Hittite,
30 in acn Machpelah, kutulap in Mamre in acn Canaan. Abraham el tuh molela luf sac ac ipin acn sac sel Ephron tuh in sie acn in kulyuk.

33 Ke safla kas in wilwil lal nu sin wen natul nukewa, na el topla ona ac misa.
When Jacob finished charging his sons, he gathered up his feet into the bed, breathed his last breath, and was gathered to his people.
