Genesis 49 The Dad's Blessing his Children

And Jacob sent for his sons, and said, Come together, all of you, so that I may give you news of your fate in future times.  Come near, O sons of Jacob, and give ear to the words of Israel your father.  Reuben, you are my oldest son, the first-fruit of my strength, first in pride and first in power: But because you were uncontrolled, the first place will not be yours; for you went up to your father's bed, even his bride-bed, and made it unclean.
