Genesis 49: 2-10

49:2 Hlanganani nilalele, O madodana kaJakobe. Lalela u-Israyeli, uyihlo.

49:3 uRubeni, izibulo lami, ungamandla ami nokuqala kosizi lwami: kuqala ngezipho, omkhulu emagunyeni.

49:4 Uthululwa njengamanzi, kwangathi ningandi. Ngoba ugibele embhedeni kayihlo, nayingcolisa indawo yakhe yokuphumula.

49:5 Abafowabo uSimeyoni noLevi: izitsha zobubi zilwa.

49:6 Umphefumulo wami mawungahambi ngeseluleko sabo, nenkazimulo yami ingabi phakathi kokuhlangana kwabo. Ngoba ekuthukutheleni kwabo babulala umuntu, futhi ngokuthanda kwabo badiliza ugange.

49:7 Intukuthelo yabo mayiqalekiswe, ngoba yayinenkani, nentukuthelo yabo, ngoba kwakunzima. ngizabahlukanisa kwaJakobe, futhi ngiyobahlakaza kwa-Israyeli.

49:8 Juda, abafowenu bayokudumisa. Isandla sakho siyakuba sezintanyeni zezitha zakho; amadodana kayihlo ayakukuhlonipha.

49:9 UJuda yibhongo lengonyama. Nikhuphukele empangweni, umfana wami. Ngenkathi ephumule, ulele njengengonyama. Futhi njengebhubesikazi, ngubani owayezamvusa?

49:10 Intonga yobukhosi kwaJuda kanye nomholi ethangeni lakhe ngeke kwamukwa, kuze kufike lowo othunyiweyo, futhi uyakuba yithemba labezizwe.
