New King James Version
5 “Simeon and Levi are brothers;
Instruments of [a]cruelty are in their dwelling place.
6 (A)Let not my soul enter their council;
Let not my honor be united (B)to their assembly;
(C)For in their anger they slew a man,
And in their self-will they [b]hamstrung an ox.
7 Cursed be their anger, for it is fierce;
And their wrath, for it is cruel!
(D)I will divide them in Jacob
And scatter them in Israel.

Joshua 18:6-11
New King James Version
6 You shall therefore [a]survey the land in seven parts and bring the survey here to me, (A)that I may cast lots for you here before the Lord our God. 7 (B)But the Levites have no part among you, for the priesthood of the Lord is their inheritance. (C)And Gad, Reuben, and half the tribe of Manasseh have received their inheritance beyond the Jordan on the east, which Moses the servant of the Lord gave them.”
8 Then the men arose to go away; and Joshua charged those who went to [b]survey the land, saying, “Go, walk (D)through the land, survey it, and come back to me, that I may cast lots for you here before the Lord in Shiloh.” 9 So the men went, passed through the land, and [c]wrote the survey in a book in seven parts by cities; and they came to Joshua at the camp in Shiloh. 10 Then Joshua cast (E)lots for them in Shiloh before the Lord, and there (F)Joshua divided the land to the children of Israel according to their [d]divisions.
