Let me not enter their council,
    let me not join their assembly,(A)
for they have killed men in their anger(B)
    and hamstrung(C) oxen as they pleased.
Cursed be their anger, so fierce,
    and their fury,(D) so cruel!(E)
I will scatter them in Jacob
    and disperse them in Israel.(F)

“Judah,[a](G) your brothers will praise you;
    your hand will be on the neck(H) of your enemies;
    your father’s sons will bow down to you.(I)
