Genesis 49:4-7
New International Version
4 Turbulent as the waters,(A) you will no longer excel,
for you went up onto your father’s bed,
onto my couch and defiled it.(B)
5 “Simeon(C) and Levi(D) are brothers—
their swords[a] are weapons of violence.(E)
6 Let me not enter their council,
let me not join their assembly,(F)
for they have killed men in their anger(G)
and hamstrung(H) oxen as they pleased.
7 Cursed be their anger, so fierce,
and their fury,(I) so cruel!(J)
I will scatter them in Jacob
and disperse them in Israel.(K)
