Genesis 49

Studie

   

1 At tinawag ni Jacob ang kaniyang mga anak, at sinabi, Magpipisan kayo, upang maisaysay ko sa inyo ang mangyayari sa inyo sa mga huling araw.

2 Magpipisan kayo at kayo'y makinig, kayong mga anak ni Jacob; At inyong pakinggan si Israel na inyong ama.

3 Ruben, ikaw ang aking panganay, ang aking kapangyarihan, at siyang pasimula ng aking kalakasan; Siyang kasakdalan ng kamahalan, at siyang kasakdalan ng kapangyarihan.

4 Kumukulong parang tubig na umaawas, hindi ka magtataglay ng kasakdalan, Sapagka't, sumampa ka sa higaan ng iyong ama: Hinamak mo nga; sumampa sa aking higaan.

5 Si Simeon at si Levi ay magkapatid; Mga almas na marahas ang kanilang mga tabak.

6 Oh kaluluwa ko, huwag kang pumasok sa kanilang payo; Sa kanilang kapisanan, ay huwag kang makiisa, kaluwalhatian ko; Sapagka't sa kanilang galit ay pumatay ng tao: At sa kanilang sariling kalooban ay pumutol ng hita ng baka.

7 Sumpain ang kanilang galit, sapagka't mabangis; At ang kanilang pagiinit, sapagka't mabagsik. Aking babahagihin sila sa Jacob. At aking pangangalatin sila sa Israel.

8 Juda, ikaw ay pupurihin ng iyong mga kapatid: Ang iyong kamay ay magpapahinga sa leeg ng iyong mga kaaway: Ang mga anak ng iyong ama ay yuyukod sa harap mo.

9 Si Juda'y isang anak ng leon, Mula sa panghuhuli, anak ko umahon ka: Siya'y yumuko, siya'y lumugmok na parang leon; At parang isang leong babae; sinong gigising sa kaniya?

10 Ang setro ay hindi mahihiwalay sa Juda, Ni ang tungkod ng pagkapuno sa pagitan ng kaniyang mga paa, Hanggang sa ang Shiloh ay dumating; At sa kaniya tatalima ang mga bansa.

11 Naitatali ang kaniyang batang asno sa puno ng ubas. At ang guya ng kaniyang asno sa puno ng piling ubas; Nilabhan niya ang kaniyang suot sa alak, At ang kaniyang damit sa katas ng ubas.

12 Ang kaniyang mga mata ay mamumula sa alak, At ang kaniyang mga ngipin ay mamumuti sa gatas.

13 Si Zabulon ay tatahan sa daongan ng dagat: At siya'y magiging daongan ng mga sasakyan; At ang kaniyang hangganan ay magiging hanggang Sidon.

14 Si Issachar ay isang malakas na asno, Na lumulugmok sa gitna ng mga tupahan:

15 At nakakita siya ng dakong pahingahang mabuti, At ng lupang kaayaaya; At kaniyang iniyukod ang kaniyang balikat upang pumasan, At naging aliping mangaatag.

16 Si Dan ay hahatol sa kaniyang bayan, Gaya ng isa sa angkan ni Israel.

17 Si Dan ay magiging ahas sa daan, At ulupong sa landas, Na nangangagat ng mga sakong ng kabayo, Na ano pa't nahuhulog sa likuran ang sakay niyaon.

18 Aking hinintay ang iyong pagliligtas, Oh Panginoon.

19 Si Gad, ay hahabulin ng isang pulutong: Nguni't siya ang hahabol sa kanila.

20 Hinggil kay Aser, ay lulusog ang tinapay niya, At gagawa ng masasarap na pagkain.

21 Si Nephtali ay isang usang babaing kawala: Siya'y nagbabadya ng maririkit na pananalita.

22 Si Jose ay sangang mabunga, Sangang mabunga na nasa tabi ng bukal; Ang kaniyang mga sanga'y gumagapang sa pader.

23 Pinamanglaw siya ng mga mamamana, At pinana siya, at inusig siya:

24 Nguni't ang kaniyang busog ay nanahan sa kalakasan, At pinalakas ang mga bisig ng kaniyang mga kamay, Sa pamamagitan ng mga kamay ng Makapangyarihan ni Jacob, (Na siyang pinagmulan ng pastor, ang bato ng Israel),

25 Sa pamamagitan nga ng Dios ng iyong ama, na siyang tutulong sa iyo, At sa pamamagitan ng Makapangyarihan sa lahat, na siyang magpapala sa iyo, Ng pagpapala ng langit sa itaas, Pagpapala ng mga kalaliman na nalalagay sa ibaba, Pagpapala ng mga dibdib at ng bahay-bata.

26 Ang mga basbas ng iyong ama na humigit sa basbas ng aking mga kanunuan Hanggang sa wakas ng mga burol na walang hanggan: Mangapapasa ulo ni Jose, At sa tuktok ng ulo niya na bukod tangi sa kaniyang mga kapatid.

27 Si Benjamin ay isang lobo na mangaagaw: Sa kinaumagaha'y kaniyang kakanin ang huli, At sa kinahapunan ay kaniyang babahagihin ang samsam.

28 Ang lahat ng ito ang labing dalawang angkan ng Israel: at ito ang sinalita ng ama nila sa kanila, at sila'y binasbasan; bawa't isa'y binasbasan ng ayon sa basbas sa kanikaniya,

29 At kaniyang ipinagbilin sa kanila, at sinabi sa kanila: Ako'y malalakip sa aking bayan: ilibing ninyo ako sa kasamahan ng aking mga magulang sa yungib na nasa parang ni Ephron na Hetheo,

30 Sa yungib na nasa parang ng Machpela, na nasa tapat ng Mamre, sa lupain ng Canaan, na binili ni Abraham, na kalakip ng parang kay Ephron na Hetheo, na pinakaaring libingan:

31 Na doon nila inilibing si Abraham at si Sara na kaniyang asawa; na doon nila inilibing si Isaac at si Rebeca na kaniyang asawa; at doon ko inilibing si Lea:

32 Sa parang at sa yungib na nandoon na binili sa mga anak ni Heth.

33 At nang matapos si Jacob na makapagbilin sa kaniyang mga anak, ay kaniyang itinaas at itinikom ang kaniyang mga paa sa higaan, at nalagot ang hininga, at nalakip sa kaniyang bayan.

Arcana Coelestia # 6406

6406. He shall ravage the heel. That this signifies a want of order thence in the natural, is evident from the signification of “ravaging,” as being to drive away from truth (see just above, n. 6405), thus to disturb the order, or cause a want of order; and from the signification of “heel,” as being the lowest natural (n. 259, 4938-4952). Hence it is plain that by “he shall ravage the heel” is signified a want of order in the natural. They who do works from truth and not yet from good, must needs cause in their natural a want of order, for works affect the natural; and consequently they must needs to this extent close their interiors; for the plane in which the interiors terminate is the natural, and if this is devoid of order, all that which flows in from the interiors also becomes devoid of order; and all that which is devoid of order is dark and opaque, so that they cannot see what is truth, but in this opacity and darkness they seize for truth what is not truth, and from this non-truth do their works. Moreover works are most necessary, for they are charity and faith in effect and in life, and who cannot see that without them there is no charity? Works are nothing but good and truth themselves in outward form; for good which is of the will, and truth which is of the understanding, when put forth into act, are called “works;” hence it is evident that such as are the good and truth, such are the works.

Genesis 49

Studie

   

1 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 Assemble yourselves, and hear, you sons of Jacob. Listen to Israel, your father.

3 "Reuben, you are my firstborn, my might, and the beginning of my strength; excelling in dignity, and excelling in power.

4 Boiling over as 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 and Levi are brothers. Their swords are weapons of violence.

6 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 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, your brothers will praise you. Your hand will be on the neck of your enemies. Your father's sons will bow down before you.

9 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 The scepter will not depart from Judah, nor the ruler's staff from between his feet, until he comes to whom it belongs. To him will the obedience of the peoples be.

11 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 His eyes will be red with wine, his teeth white with milk.

13 "Zebulun will dwell at the haven of the sea. He will be for a haven of ships. His border will be on Sidon.

14 "Issachar is a strong donkey, lying down between the saddlebags.

15 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 labor.

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

17 Dan will be a serpent in the way, an adder in the path, That bites the horse's heels, so that his rider falls backward.

18 I have waited for your salvation, Yahweh.

19 "A troop will press on Gad, but he will press on their heel.

20 "Asher's food will be rich. He will yield royal dainties.

21 "Naphtali is a doe set free, who bears beautiful fawns.

22 "Joseph is a fruitful vine, a fruitful vine by a spring. His branches run over the wall.

23 The archers have severely grieved him, shot at him, and persecute him:

24 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 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 The blessings of your father have prevailed above the blessings of your 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.

27 "Benjamin is a ravenous wolf. In the morning he will devour the prey. At evening he will divide the spoil."

28 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 blessing.

29 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 the cave that is in the field of Machpelah, which is before Mamre, in the land of Canaan, which Abraham bought with the field from Ephron the Hittite as a burial place.

31 There they buried Abraham and Sarah, his wife. There they buried Isaac and Rebekah, his wife, and there I buried Leah:

32 the field and the cave that is therein, which was purchased from the children of Heth."

33 When Jacob made an end of charging his sons, he gathered up his feet into the bed, and yielded up the spirit, and was gathered to his people.
