26 The blessings of your father
Have excelled the blessings of my ancestors,
aUp to the utmost bound of the everlasting hills.
bThey shall be on the head of Joseph,
And on the crown of the head of him who was separate from his brothers.
Have excelled the blessings of my ancestors,
aUp to the utmost bound of the everlasting hills.
bThey shall be on the head of Joseph,
And on the crown of the head of him who was separate from his brothers.
27 “Benjamin is a aravenous wolf;
In the morning he shall devour the prey,
bAnd at night he shall divide the spoil.”
In the morning he shall devour the prey,
bAnd at night he shall divide the spoil.”
28 All these are the twelve tribes of Israel, and this is what their father spoke to them. And he blessed them; he blessed each one according to his own blessing.
Jacob’s Death and Burial
29 Then he charged them and said to them: “I aam to be gathered to my people; bbury me with my fathers cin the cave that is in the field of Ephron the Hittite,
30 in the cave that is in the field of Machpelah, which is before Mamre in the land of Canaan, awhich Abraham bought with the field of Ephron the Hittite as a possession for a burial place.
31 aThere they buried Abraham and Sarah his wife, bthere they buried Isaac and Rebekah his wife, and there I buried Leah.
32 The field and the cave that is there were purchased from the sons of Heth.”
33 And when Jacob had finished commanding his sons, he drew his feet up into the bed and breathed his last, and was gathered to his people.
