Genesis 49

Gen Z: Genesis 49

1Jacob was like, "Yo sons, come through so I can spill the tea on what’s gonna go down in the last days."

2Gather up, listen up, sons of Jacob; pay attention to your dad Israel.

3Reuben, you’re my firstborn, my strength, the start of my legacy, pure vibes.

4But you’re as shaky as water; you won’t shine because you messed up with my bed.

5Simeon and Levi are bros; they’re lowkey savage with their drama.

6My soul is like, nah, I’m not rolling with their crew; they got mad anger and drama.

7Their anger is cursed, it’s wild and cruel; I’m splitting them up in Jacob, scattering them in Israel.

8Judah, you’re the one your fam’s gonna hype up; you’ll have your enemies on lock.

9Judah’s like a lion’s cub; you’re climbing up from the prey, chilling like a lion; who’s brave enough to mess with him?

10The scepter’s staying with Judah, and the law won’t leave until Shiloh shows up; everyone’s gonna gather around him.

11Tying his foal to the vine, and his donkey's colt to the best vine; he got his drip all wine-stained, like he's vibing with some grape juice.

12His eyes gonna be red from the wine, and his teeth all pearly white from the milk.

13Zebulun’s chilling by the sea, making it a whole vibe for ships; his territory stretches to Zidon.

14Issachar is a strong donkey, just chilling between two burdens, no cap.

15He peeped that rest was lit, and the land looked nice; he put in the work and became a servant, no doubt.

16Dan's gonna judge his crew, just like one of the Israel tribes do.

17Dan’s like a sneaky snake on the road, biting at horse heels, making the rider fall back, fr.

18I’ve been waiting for your salvation, God, periodt.

19Gad’s got a squad that might take him down, but he’ll bounce back at the end, no cap.

20Asher’s bread gonna be all rich, serving up the royal goodies, that’s bussin.

21Naphtali's got that freedom vibe, always dropping wisdom.

22Joseph's like a lit tree by the well, branches just vibin' over the wall.

23The archers came for him, throwing shade and hating hard.

24But his bow stayed strong, powered up by the one true God, the GOAT of Jacob.

25Your dad's God got your back, and the Almighty’s about to bless you with mad blessings from the sky and the deep.

26Your dad's blessings hit different, way above the fam blessings, they’re on Joseph’s head, shining like a crown.

27Benjamin's a wolf, hungry in the morning, feasting at night like a boss.

28These are the twelve tribes of Israel, and this is the blessing their dad dropped on them, each one getting their own hype.

29He told them, "I’m about to join my peeps, so bury me with my fam in the cave at Ephron's field."

30In the cave at Machpelah, near Mamre, in Canaan, which Abraham copped for a burial spot.

31They put Abraham and Sarah to rest there, also Isaac and Rebekah, and yeah, I buried Leah too.

32The land and cave were bought from the Heth fam, no cap.

33After giving his sons some final vibes, Jacob kicked back in bed, let go, and joined his crew.

KJV: Genesis 49

1And Jacob called unto his sons, and said, Gather yourselves together, that I may tell you that which shall befall you in the last days.

2Gather yourselves together, and hear, ye sons of Jacob; and hearken unto Israel your father.

3Reuben, thou art my firstborn, my might, and the beginning of my strength, the excellency of dignity, and the excellency of power:

4Unstable 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.

5Simeon and Levi are brethren; instruments of cruelty are in their habitations.

6O 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.

7Cursed 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.

8Judah, 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.

9Judah 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?

10The 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.

11Binding 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:

12His eyes shall be red with wine, and his teeth white with milk.

13Zebulun shall dwell at the haven of the sea; and he shall be for an haven of ships; and his border shall be unto Zidon.

14Issachar is a strong ass couching down between two burdens:

15And 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.

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

17Dan shall be a serpent by the way, an adder in the path, that biteth the horse heels, so that his rider shall fall backward.

18I have waited for thy salvation, O Lord.

19Gad, a troop shall overcome him: but he shall overcome at the last.

20Out of Asher his bread shall be fat, and he shall yield royal dainties.

21Naphtali is a hind let loose: he giveth goodly words.

22Joseph is a fruitful bough, even a fruitful bough by a well; whose branches run over the wall:

23The archers have sorely grieved him, and shot at him, and hated him:

24But his bow abode in strength, and the arms of his hands were made strong by the hands of the mighty God of Jacob; (from thence is the shepherd, the stone of Israel:)

25Even by the God of thy father, who shall help thee; and by the Almighty, who shall bless thee with blessings of heaven above, blessings of the deep that lieth under, blessings of the breasts, and of the womb:

26The blessings of thy father have prevailed above the blessings of my progenitors unto the utmost bound of the everlasting hills: they shall be on the head of Joseph, and on the crown of the head of him that was separate from his brethren.

27Benjamin shall ravin as a wolf: in the morning he shall devour the prey, and at night he shall divide the spoil.

28All these are the twelve tribes of Israel: and this is it that their father spake unto them, and blessed them; every one according to his blessing he blessed them.

29And he charged them, and said unto them, I am to be gathered unto my people: bury me with my fathers in the cave that is in the field of Ephron the Hittite,

30In the cave that is in the field of Machpelah, which is before Mamre, in the land of Canaan, which Abraham bought with the field of Ephron the Hittite for a possession of a buryingplace.

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

32The purchase of the field and of the cave that is therein was from the children of Heth.

33And when Jacob had made an end of commanding his sons, he gathered up his feet into the bed, and yielded up the ghost, and was gathered unto his people.
