Gen Genesis, chapter Book of Genesis, chapter 49
And 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. Deu 33:1Gather yourselves together, and hear, O ye sons of Jacob, hearken to Israel your father: Ruben, my firstborn, thou art my strength, and the beginning of my sorrow: excelling in gifts, greater in command. Gen 29:32; Deu 21:17Thou art poured out as water, grow thou not: because thou wentest up to thy father’s bed, and didst defile his couch. Gen 35:22; 1Ch 5:1Simeon and Levi brethren: vessels of iniquity, waging war. Gen 34:25; Jdt 9:2Let 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. Gen 34:26Cursed 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. Jos 19:1; Jos 21:3Juda, 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. 1Ch 4:27; 1Ch 4:38; 1Ch 4:41Juda 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? Num 24:9The 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. 1Ch 5:2; Jhn 1:45; Jhn 5:46; Mat 2:6Tying 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. Isa 63:1His eyes are more beautiful than wine, and his teeth whiter than milk. Rev 1:14Zabulon shall dwell on the sea shore, and in the road of ships, reaching as far as Sidon. Jos 19:10Issachar shall be a strong ass lying down between the borders. Jdg 5:15He saw rest that it was good: and the land that it was excellent: and he bowed his shoulder to carry, and became a servant under tribute. Deu 33:18Dan shall judge his people like another tribe in Israel. Jdg 13:25Let Dan be a snake in the way, a serpent in the path, that biteth the horse’s heels that his rider may fall backward. Jdg 18:1I will look for thy salvation, O Lord. Psa 118:166; Luk 2:30Gad, being girded, shall fight before him: and he himself shall be girded backward. Num 32:17Aser, his bread shall be fat, and he shall yield dainties to kings. Deu 33:24Nephtali, a hart let loose, and giving words of beauty. Jdg 4:6Joseph is a growing son, a growing son and comely to behold; the daughters run to and fro upon the wall. Gen 48:16But they that held darts provoked him, and quarrelled with him, and envied him. His bow rested upon the strong, and the bands of his arms and his hands were loosed, by the hands of the mighty one of Jacob: thence he came forth a pastor, the stone of Israel. Deu 33:17The 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. The 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. Deu 33:16Benjamin a ravenous wolf, in the morning shall eat the prey, and in the evening shall divide the spoil. Jdg 20:21; Jdg 20:25; Jdg 20:31All these are the twelve tribes of Israel: these things their father spoke to them, and he blessed every one, with their proper blessings. Sir 44:26And he charged them, saying: I am now going to be gathered to my people: bury me with my fathers in the double cave, which is in the field of Ephron the Hethite, Gen 25:8; Gen 47:30Over against Mambre in the land of Chanaan, which Abraham bought together with the field of Ephron the Hethite for a possession to bury in. Gen 23:16; Gen 50:13; Act 7:16There they buried him, and Sara his wife: there was Isaac buried with Rebecca his wife: there also Lia doth lie buried. And when he had ended the commandments, wherewith he instructed his sons, he drew up his feet upon the bed, and died: and he was gathered to his people.Act 7:15
