Chapter 49
And
Iacob
called
vnto
his
sonnes,
and
said,
Gather
your
selues
together,
that
I
may
tell
you
that
which
shall
befall
you
in
the
last
dayes.
2
Gather
your
selues
together,
and
heare
ye
sonnes
of
Iacob,
and
hearken
vnto
Israel
your
father.
3
Reuben,
thou
art
my
first
borne,
my
might,
and
the
beginning
of
my
strength,
the
excellencie
of
dignitie,
and
the
excellencie
of
power:
4
Unstable
as
water,
thou
shalt
not
excell,
because
thou
wentest
vp
to
thy
fathers
bed:
then
defiledst
thou
it.
He
went
vp
to
my
couche.
5
Simeon
and
Leui
are
brethren,
instruments
of
crueltie
are
in
their
habitations.
6
O
my
soule,
come
not
thou
into
their
secret:
vnto
their
assembly
mine
honour
be
not
thou
vnited:
for
in
their
anger
they
slew
a
man,
and
in
their
selfe
will
they
digged
downe
a
wall.
7
Cursed
be
their
anger,
for
it
was
fierce;
and
their
wrath,
for
it
was
cruell:
I
will
diuide
them
in
Iacob,
and
scatter
them
in
Israel.
8
Iudah,
thou
art
he
whom
thy
brethren
shall
praise:
thy

necke
of
thine
enemies,
thy
fathers
children
shall
bow
downe
before
thee.
9
Iudah

thou

gone
vp:
he
stouped
downe,

couched
as
a
Lyon,
and
as
an
old
Lyon:
who
shall
rouse
him
vp?
10
The
scepter
shall
not
depart
from
Iudah,
nor
a
Law-giuer
from
betweene
his
feete,
vntill
Shiloh
come:
and

of
the
people

and

shoulder
to
beare,
and
became
a
seruant
vnto
tribute.
16

shall
iudge
his
people,
as
one

the
way,
an
adder
in
the
path,
that
biteth
the
horse
heeles,
so
that
his
rider
shall
fall
backward.
18
I

The
archers
haue
sorely
grieued
him,
and

24
But
his
bow
abode
in
strength,
and
the
armes
of
his
hands
were
made
strong,
by
the
hands
of
the
mighty
God
of
Iacob:
from
thence
is
the
Sheapheard,
the
stone
of
Israel,
25
Euen
by
the
God
of
thy
father
who
shall

of
thy

blessings
of
my
progenitors:

the
euerlasting

28
All
these
are
the
twelue
tribes
of
Israel,
and
this
is
it
that
their
father
spake
vnto
them,
and
blessed
them:
euery
one
according
to
his
blessing
he
blessed
them.
29
And
hee
charged
them
and
said
vnto
them,
I
am
to
bee
gathered
vnto
my
people:
burie
me
with
my
fathers,
in
the
caue
that
is
in
the
field
of
Ephron
the
Hittite,
30
In
the
caue
that
is

field
of
Ephron
the
Hittite,
for
a
possession
of
a
burying

they
buried
Abraham
and
Sarah
his
wife,
there
they
buried
Isaac
and
Rebekah
his
wife,
and
there
I
buried
Leah.)
32
The
purchase
of
the
field
and
of
the
caue
that
is
therein,
was
from
the

had
made
an
end
of
commanding
his
sonnes,
he
gathered
vp
his
feete
into
the
bed,
and
yeelded
vp
the
ghost,
and
was
gathered
vnto
his
people.
