Genesis 49:3-5

Genesis 48Genesis 50

Genesis 49:3-5 Christian Standard Bible (CSB)

3 Reuben, you are my firstborn,
my strength and the firstfruits of my virility,
excelling in prominence, excelling in power.
4 Turbulent as water, you will not excel,
because you got into your father’s bed
and you defiled it—he[a] got into my bed.

5 Simeon and Levi are brothers;
their knives are vicious weapons.
