Genesis
49: 33 When Jacob had finished giving instructions to his sons, he drew his
feet up into the bed, breathed his last and was gathered to his people. (6)

25 because
of your father’s GOD, who helps you, because of the Almighty, who blesses you
with blessings of the skies above, blessings of the deep
springs below, blessings
of the breast and womb. (7)
26 Your father’s blessings are greater than the blessings of the ancient mountains, than the bounty of the age-old hills. Let all these rest on the head of Joseph, on the brow of the prince among his brothers.

27 “Benjamin is a ravenous wolf; in the morning he
devours the prey, in the evening he
divides the plunder.”

16 “Dan
will provide justice for his
people as one of the tribes of
Israel. (7)
17 Dan will be a snake by the roadside, a viper along the path, that bites the horse’s heels so that its rider tumbles backward.

deliverance, Lord.

7 Cursed
be their anger, so fierce, and their fury, so cruel!
I will scatter them in and disperse them in Israel. (7)
8 “Judah, your brothers will praise you; your hand will be
on the neck of your enemies; your father’s sons
will bow down to you.
9 You are a lion’s cub, Judah; you return from the prey, my son. Like a lion he crouches and lies down, like a lioness—who dares to rouse him?

31 There Abraham and his wife Sarah
were buried, there Isaac
and his wife Rebekah were buried, and there I buried Leah. (4)
32 The field and the
cave in it were bought from the Hittites.”

22 “Joseph is a fruitful vine, a fruitful vine near a spring, whose branches climb over a wall. (4)
23 With bitterness archers attacked him; they shot at him with hostility.
24 But his bow remained steady, his strong arms stayed limber, because of the hand of the Mighty One of Jacob, because of the Shepherd, the Rock of Israel,

the sheep pens.

as the waters, you will no longer excel, for you went up onto your father’s bed,
onto my couch and defiled it. (4)

5 “Simeon and Levi are brothers— their swords are
weapons of violence.
6 Let me not enter their council, let me not join their assembly, for they have killed men in their anger and hamstrung oxen as they pleased.

28 All
these are the twelve tribes of Israel,
and this is what their father said to them when he blessed them, giving each
the blessing appropriate to him. (1)
The Death of Jacob
29 Then he gave them
these instructions: “I am about to be
gathered to my people. Bury me with my fathers in the cave in the field of
Ephron the Hittite,
30 the cave in the
field of Machpelah, near Mamre in Canaan, which Abraham bought along with the
field as a burial place from Ephron the Hittite.

19 “Gad
will be attacked by a band of
raiders, but he will attack them at their heels. (1)
20 “Asher’s food will be rich; he will provide
delicacies fit for a king.
21 “Naphtali is a doe set free that bears
beautiful fawns.
138
10 The scepter will not depart
from Judah, nor the ruler’s staff from
between his feet, until he to whom it belongs
shall come and the obedience of the nations shall be his. (1)
11 He will tether his donkey to a vine, his colt to the choicest branch; he will wash his garments in wine, his robes in the blood of grapes.
12 His eyes will be darker than wine, his teeth whiter than milk.

Jacob Blesses His
Sons
1 Then Jacob
called for his sons and said: “Gather around so I can tell you what will happen to
you in days to come. (1)
2 “Assemble and
listen, sons of Jacob; listen to your
father Israel.
3 “Reuben, you are my Firstborn, My Might, the First Sign of My Strength, Excelling in Honor,
Excelling in Power.

10: 42 And if anyone gives even a cup
of cold water to one of these little ones who is My disciple, truly I tell you,
that person will certainly not lose their reward.” (6)
369
34 “Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace
to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. (7)
35 For I have come to turn “‘a man
against his father, a daughter against her mother,
a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law—
36 a man’s enemies will be the members of his own household.’
a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law—
36 a man’s enemies will be the members of his own household.’
369
25 It
is enough for students to be like their teachers, and servants like their
masters. If the head of the house has been called Beelzebul, how much more the
members of his household!
(7)
26 “So do not be afraid of them,
for there is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed, or hidden that will
not be made known.
27 What I tell you in the dark,
speak in the daylight; what is whispered in your ear, proclaim from the roofs.
369
16 “I am sending you out like sheep among wolves.
Therefore be as shrewd as snakes and as innocent as doves. (7)
17 Be on your guard; you will be
handed over to the local councils and be flogged in the synagogues.
18 On My account you will be
brought before governors and kings as witnesses to them and to the Gentiles.
369
7 As
you go, proclaim this message:
‘The Kingdom of
heaven has come near.’ (7)
8 Heal the sick, raise the dead,
cleanse those who have leprosy, drive out demons. Freely you have received;
freely give.
9 “Do not get any gold or silver
or copper to take with you in your belts—
369
40 “Anyone who welcomes you
welcomes Me, and anyone who welcomes Me welcomes the One who sent Me.
(4)
41 Whoever welcomes a prophet as a
prophet will receive a prophet’s reward, and whoever welcomes a righteous
person as a righteous person will receive a righteous person’s reward.
258
31 So don’t be afraid;
you are worth more than many sparrows.
(4)
32 “Whoever acknowledges Me before others, I will also
acknowledge before My Father in heaven.
33 But whoever disowns Me before others, I will disown
before My Father in heaven.
369
22 You will be hated by everyone
because of Me, but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved. (4)
23 When you are persecuted in one
place, flee to another. Truly I tell you, you will not finish going through the
towns of Israel before the Son of
Man comes.
24 “The student is not above the teacher, nor a servant
above his master.
369
13 If the home is
deserving, let your peace rest on it; if it is not, let your peace return to
you.
(4)
14 If anyone will not welcome you
or listen to your words, leave that home or town and shake the dust off your
feet.
15 Truly I tell you, it will be more bearable for Sodom
and Gomorrah on the day of judgment than for that town.
369
4 Simon 11 the Zealot and Judas Iscariot 12, who betrayed Him. (4)
5 These twelve Jesus sent out with the
following instructions: “Do not go among
the Gentiles or enter any town of the Samaritans.
6 Go rather to the lost sheep of Israel.
369
37 “Anyone
who loves their father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me; anyone who
loves their son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me.
(1)
38 Whoever does not take up their
cross and follow Me is not worthy of
Me.
39 Whoever finds their life will
lose it, and whoever loses their life for My
sake will find it.
138
28 Do not be afraid of those who
kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can
destroy both soul and body in hell. (1)
29 Are not two sparrows sold for a
penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground outside your Father’s care.
30 And even the very hairs of your head are all
numbered.
138
19 But
when they arrest you, do not worry about what to say or how to say it. At that
time you will be given what to say,
(1)
20 for it will not be you speaking, but the Spirit of
your Father speaking through you.
21 “Brother will betray brother to
death, and a father his child; children will rebel against their parents and
have them put to death.
138
10 no
bag for the journey or extra shirt or sandals or a staff, for the worker is
worth his keep. (1)
11 Whatever town or village you
enter, search there for some worthy person and stay at their house until you
leave.
12 As you enter the home, give it your greeting.
138
Jesus Sends Out the
Twelve
1 Jesus called His twelve disciples to Him and gave them authority
to drive out impure Spirits and to heal every disease and sickness. (1)
2 These are the names of the twelve apostles: first, Simon (who is called Peter)1 and his brother Andrew 2; James 3 son of Zebedee, and his brother John 4;
3 Philip 5 and Bartholomew 6; Thomas 7 and Matthew 8 the tax collector; James 9 son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus 10;
