01:049:002 Gather yourselves together, and hear, ye sons of Jacob; and
           hearken unto Israel your father.

01:049:003 Reuben, thou art my firstborn, my might, and the beginning of
           my strength, the excellency of dignity, and the excellency of
           power: 

01:049:004 Unstable as water, thou shalt not excel; because thou wentest
           up to thy father’s bed; then defiledst thou it:  he went up to
           my couch.

01:049:005 Simeon and Levi are brethren; instruments of cruelty are in
           their habitations.

01:049:006 O my soul, come not thou into their secret; unto their
           assembly, mine honour, be not thou united:  for in their anger
           they slew a man, and in their selfwill they digged down a
           wall.

01:049:007 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.

01:049:008 Judah, thou art he whom thy brethren shall praise:  thy hand
           shall be in the neck of thine enemies; thy father’s children
           shall bow down before thee.

01:049:009 Judah is a lion’s whelp:  from the prey, my son, thou art gone
           up:  he stooped down, he couched as a lion, and as an old lion;
           who shall rouse him up?

01:049:010 The sceptre shall not depart from Judah, nor a lawgiver from
           between his feet, until Shiloh come; and unto him shall the
           gathering of the people be.

01:049:011 Binding his foal unto the vine, and his ass’s colt unto the
           choice vine; he washed his garments in wine, and his clothes
           in the blood of grapes: 

01:049:012 His eyes shall be red with wine, and his teeth white with
           milk.

01:049:013 Zebulun shall dwell at the haven of the sea; and he shall be
           for an haven of ships; and his border shall be unto Zidon.

01:049:014 Issachar is a strong ass couching down between two burdens: 

01:049:015 And he saw that rest was good, and the land that it was
           pleasant; and bowed his shoulder to bear, and became a servant
           unto tribute.

01:049:016 Dan shall judge his people, as one of the tribes of Israel.

01:049:017 Dan shall be a serpent by the way, an adder in the path, that
           biteth the horse heels, so that his rider shall fall backward.

01:049:018 I have waited for thy salvation, O lord.

01:049:019 Gad, a troop shall overcome him:  but he shall overcome at the
           last.

01:049:020 Out of Asher his bread shall be fat, and he shall yield royal
           dainties.

01:049:021 Naphtali is a hind let loose:  he giveth goodly words.
