The sons Of Jacob And Their Blessing.
We thank Almighty God once again for giving us this and continued to shower his blessing upon us.
Many people wanted to read the histories in the Bible and I would like to discuss the sons of Jacob and their blessings with you.
Jacob gave born to twelve children, they are different mothers.
One day, Jacob called his sons and said, gather yourselves together, that I may tell you what shall be before you in days to come.
Jacob started from Reuben because he was his first son.
He said to Reuben, you are my firstborn, my might, and the first fruit of my strength,
Pre-eminent in pride and pre-eminent in power.
Unstable as water, you shall not have pre-eminence because you went up to your father's bed, then you defiled it and you went up to my couch!
Simeon and Levi are brothers, weapons of violence are their swords.
My soul comes not into their council, my spirit, be not joined to their company, for in their anger they slay men and in their wantonness they hamstring oxen.
Cursed be their anger, for it is fierce and their wrath, for it cruel.
I will divide them between Jacob and scatter them in Israel.
Judah, your brothers shall praise you, your hand shall be on the neck of your enemies.
Your father's sons shall now down before you.
Judah is a lion's help, from the prey, my son, you have gone up.
He stooped down, he couched as a lion, and as a lioness who dares rouse him up.
The scepter shall not depart from Judah,
Not the ruler's staff from between his feet, until he comes to whom it belongs and to him shall be the obedience of the peoples.
Binding his foal to the vine and his ass's colt to the choice vine, he washes his garment in the wine and his gesture in the blood of grapes.
His eyes shall be red with wine and his teeth white with milk.
Zebulun shall dwell at the shore of the sea, he shall become a haven for ships and his border shall be at Sidon.
Issachar is a strong ass, crouching between the sheepfolds.
He saw that a resting place was good and that the land was pleasant, so he bowed his shoulder to bear and became a slave at forced labor.
Dan shall judge his people as one of the tribes of Israel.
Dan shall be a serpent in the way, a viper by the path, that bites the horse's heels so that his rider falls backward.
Raiders shall raid Gad, but he shall raid at their heels.
Asher food shall be rich, and he shall yield royal dainties.
Naphtali is a home let loose, that bears comely fawns.
Joseph is a fruitful bough, a fruitful bough by a spring, his branches run over the wall.
The archers fiercely attacked him shot at him and harassed him sorely, yet his bow remained unmoved, his arms were made agile by the hands of the Mighty One of Jacob,
by the God of your father who will help you, by God Almighty, who will bless you with blessings of heaven above,
blessing of the deep that couches beneath,
blessings of the breasts and the womb.
The blessings of your father are mighty beyond the blessing of the eternal mountains,
the bounties of the everlasting hills,
may they be on the head of Joseph and on the brow of him who was separate from his brothers.
Benjamin is a ravenous wolf,
in the morning devouring the prey, and even dividing the spoil.
Brethren please all these are the twelve tribes of Israel and this is what their father said to them as he blessed them, blessing each with the blessing suitable to him.
This is the story about the twelve sons of Jacob and their blessing.
Brethren, please let us share this story with our friends, family, and loved ones.
Thanks for spending your special time on this article.
