Génesis 49
|
| And Jacob sent for his sons, and said, Come together, all of you, so that I may give you news of your fate in future times. | Y Llamo Jacob á sus hijos, y dijo: Juntaos, y os declararé lo que os ha de acontecer en los postreros días. |
| Come near, O sons of Jacob, and give ear to the words of Israel your father. | Juntaos y oid, hijos de Jacob; Y escuchad á vuestro padre Israel. |
| Reuben, you are my oldest son, the first-fruit of my strength, first in pride and first in power: | Rubén, tú eres mi primogénito, mi fortaleza, y el principio de mi vigor; Principal en dignidad, principal en poder. |
| But because you were uncontrolled, the first place will not be yours; for you went up to your father's bed, even his bride-bed, and made it unclean. | Corriente como las aguas, no seas el principal; Por cuanto subiste al lecho de tu padre: Entonces te envileciste, subiendo á mi estrado. |
| Simeon and Levi are brothers; deceit and force are their secret designs. | Simeón y Leví, hermanos: Armas de iniquidad sus armas. |
| Take no part in their secrets, O my soul; keep far away, O my heart, from their meetings; for in their wrath they put men to death, and for their pleasure even oxen were wounded. | En su secreto no entre mi alma, Ni mi honra se junte en su compañía; Que en su furor mataron varón, Y en su voluntad arrancaron muro. |
| A curse on their passion for it was bitter; and on their wrath for it was cruel. I will let their heritage in Jacob be broken up, driving them from their places in Israel. | Maldito su furor, que fué fiero; Y su ira, que fué dura: Yo los apartaré en Jacob, Y los esparciré en Israel. |
| To you, Judah, will your brothers give praise: your hand will be on the neck of your haters; your father's sons will go down to the earth before you. | Judá, alabarte han tus hermanos: Tu mano en la cerviz de tus enemigos: Los hijos de tu padre se inclinarán á ti. |
| Judah is a young lion; like a lion full of meat you have become great, my son; now he takes his rest like a lion stretched out and like an old lion; by whom will his sleep be broken? | Cachorro de león Judá: De la presa subiste, hijo mío: Encorvóse, echóse como león, Así como león viejo; ¿quién lo despertará? |
| The rod of authority will not be taken from Judah, and he will not be without a law-giver, till he comes who has the right to it, and the peoples will put themselves under his rule. | No será quitado el cetro de Judá, Y el legislador de entre sus piés, Hasta que venga Shiloh; Y á él se congregarán los pueblos. |
| Knotting his ass's cord to the vine, and his young ass to the best vine; washing his robe in wine, and his clothing in the blood of grapes: | Atando á la vid su pollino, Y á la cepa el hijo de su asna, Lavó en el vino su vestido, Y en la sangre de uvas su manto: |
| His eyes will be dark with wine, and his teeth white with milk. | Sus ojos bermejos del vino, Y los dientes blancos de la leche. |
| The resting-place of Zebulun will be by the sea, and he will be a harbour for ships; the edge of his land will be by Zidon. | Zabulón en puertos de mar habitará, Y será para puerto de navíos; Y su término hasta Sidón. |
| Issachar is a strong ass stretched out among the flocks: | Issachâr, asno huesudo Echado entre dos tercios: |
| And he saw that rest was good and the land was pleasing; so he let them put weights on his back and became a servant. | Y vió que el descanso era bueno, Y que la tierra era deleitosa; Y bajó su hombro para llevar, Y sirvió en tributo. |
| Dan will be the judge of his people, as one of the tribes of Israel. | Dan juzgará á su pueblo, Como una de las tribus de Israel. |
| May Dan be a snake in the way, a horned snake by the road, biting the horse's foot so that the horseman has a fall. | Será Dan serpiente junto al camino, Cerasta junto á la senda, Que muerde los talones de los caballos, Y hace caer por detrás al cabalgador de ellos. |
| I have been waiting for your salvation, O Lord. | Tu salud esperé, oh Jehová. |
| Gad, an army will come against him, but he will come down on them in their flight. | Gad, ejército lo acometerá; Mas él acometerá al fin. |
| Asher's bread is fat; he gives delicate food for kings. | El pan de Aser será grueso, Y él dará deleites al rey. |
| Naphtali is a roe let loose, giving fair young ones. | Nephtalí, sierva dejada, Que dará dichos hermosos. |
| Joseph is a young ox, whose steps are turned to the fountain; | Ramo fructífero José, Ramo fructífero junto á fuente, Cuyos vástagos se extienden sobre el muro. |
| He was troubled by the archers; they sent out their arrows against him, cruelly wounding him: | Y causáronle amargura, Y asaeteáronle, Y aborreciéronle los archeros: |
| But their bows were broken by a strong one, and the cords of their arms were cut by the Strength of Jacob, by the name of the Stone of Israel: | Mas su arco quedó en fortaleza, Y los brazos de sus manos se corroboraron Por las manos del Fuerte de Jacob, (De allí el pastor, y la piedra de Israel,) |
| Even by the God of your father, who will be your help, and by the Ruler of all, who will make you full with blessings from heaven on high, blessings of the deep stretched out under the earth, blessings of the breasts and of the fertile body: | Del Dios de tu padre, el cual te ayudará, Y del Omnipotente, el cual te bendecirá Con bendiciones de los cielos de arriba, Con bendiciones del abismo que está abajo, Con bendiciones del seno y de la matriz. |
| Blessings of sons, old and young, to the father: blessings of the oldest mountains and the fruit of the eternal hills: let them come on the head of Joseph, on the crown of him who was separate from his brothers. | Las bendiciones de tu padre Fueron mayores que las bendiciones de mis progenitores: Hasta el término de los collados eternos Serán sobre la cabeza de José, Y sobre la mollera del Nazareo de sus hermanos. |
| Benjamin is a wolf, searching for meat: in the morning he takes his food, and in the evening he makes division of what he has taken. | Benjamín, lobo arrebatador: A la mañana comerá la presa, Y á la tarde repartirá los despojos. |
| These are the twelve tribes of Israel: and these are the words their father said to them, blessing them; to every one he gave his blessing. | Todos estos fueron las doce tribus de Israel: y esto fué lo que su padre les dijo, y bendíjolos; á cada uno por su bendición los bendijo. |
| And he gave orders to them, saying, Put me to rest with my people and with my fathers, in the hollow of the rock in the field of Ephron the Hittite, | Mandóles luego, y díjoles: Yo voy á ser reunido con mi pueblo: sepultadme con mis padres en la cueva que está en el campo de Ephrón el Hetheo; |
| In the rock in the field of Machpelah, near Mamre in the land of Canaan, which Abraham got from Ephron the Hittite, to be his resting-place. | En la cueva que está en el campo de Macpela, que está delante de Mamre en la tierra de Canaán, la cual compró Abraham con el mismo campo de Ephrón el Hetheo, para heredad de sepultura. |
| There Abraham and Sarah his wife were put to rest, and there they put Isaac and Rebekah his wife, and there I put Leah to rest. | Allí sepultaron á Abraham y á Sara su mujer; allí sepultaron á Isaac y á Rebeca su mujer; allí también sepulté yo á Lea. |
| In the rock in the field which was got for a price from the people of Heth. | La compra del campo y de la cueva que está en él, fué de los hijos de Heth. |
| And when Jacob had come to the end of these words to his sons, stretching himself on his bed, he gave up his spirit, and went the way of his people. | Y como acabó Jacob de dar órdenes á sus hijos, encogió sus pies en la cama, y espiró: y fué reunido con sus padres. |
