1And Jacob called his sons, and said to them: Gather yourselves together that I may tell you the things that shall befall you in the last days.
1To pacoengah Jakob mah a capanawk to kawk moe, hmabang angzo han koi hmuen kang thuih o han pongah, ahmuen maeto ah amkhueng oh.
2Gather yourselves together, and hear, O ye sons of Jacob, hearken to Israel your father:
2Jakob ih caanawk, nawnto amkhueng oh loe, nam Pa Israel ih lok hae tahngai oh.
3Ruben, my firstborn, thou art my strength, and the beginning of my sorrow: excelling in gifts, greater in command.

4Thou art poured out as water, grow thou not: because thou wentest up to thy father’s bed, and didst defile his couch.

5Simeon and Levi brethren: vessels of iniquity, waging war.

6Let not my soul go into their counsel, nor my glory be in their assembly: because in their fury they slew a man, and in their selfwill they undermined a wall.
6Aw ka hinghaih, nihnik mah tamquta hoi sak ih ahmuen ah na thumsak hmah, kai pakoehhaih loe nihcae amkhuenghaih ahmuen ah na thumsak hmah; nihnik loe palungphuihaih hoiah kami to hum hoi moe, a koeh hoi ih baktiah vangpui tapang to paro hoi.
7Cursed be their fury, because it was stubborn: and their wrath because it was cruel: I will divide them in Jacob, and will scatter them in Israel.
7Nihnik loe palungphui hoi, poek amthueng hoi moe, palungduemh hoi pongah kasae zok hoi nasoe! Jakob acaeng thungah nihnik to ka tapraek moe, Israel acaeng thungah kam hetsak phang han.
8Juda, thee shall thy brethren praise: thy hands shall be on the necks of thy enemies: the sons of thy father shall bow down to thee.
8Judah, nang loe nam yanawk mah pakoeh o tih; na ban loe misanawk ih tahnong nuiah om tih; nam pa ih caanawk loe na hmaa ah akuep o tih.
9Juda is a lion’s whelp: to the prey, my son, thou art gone up: resting thou hast couched as a lion, and as a lioness, who shall rouse him?

10The sceptre shall not be taken away from Juda, nor a ruler from his thigh, till he come that is to be sent, and he shall be the expectation of nations.

11Tying his foal to the vineyard, and his ass, O my son, to the vine. He shall wash his robe in wine, and his garment in the blood of the grape.

14Issachar shall be a strong ass lying down between the borders.

16Dan shall judge his people like another tribe in Israel.
16Dan loe Israel ih acaeng maeto ah oh baktih toengah, angmah ih kaminawk to lokcaek tih.
17Let Dan be a snake in the way, a serpent in the path, that biteth the horse’s heels that his rider may fall backward.
17Dan loe loklam ah kaom pahui ah om ueloe, hrang angthueng kami to hnuk angnawnsak hanah, hrang khok tahmawh patuk pahui sae ah om tih.

25The God of thy father shall be thy helper, and the Almighty shall bless thee with the blessings of heaven above, with the blessings of the deep that lieth beneath, with the blessings of the breasts and of the womb.

26The blessings of thy father are strengthened with the blessings of his fathers: until the desire of the everlasting hills should come; may they be upon the head of Joseph, and upon the crown of the Nazarite among his brethren.
