Genesis 49:4-6
International Standard Version
4 But you’re as undisciplined as a roaring river,
so eventually you won’t succeed,
because you got in your father’s bed,[a]
defiled it, and then approached my couch.”
On the Future of Simeon and Levi
5 “Simeon and Levi are brothers;
their swords are violent weapons.
6 I’ll[b] never join their council;
I’ll never enter their assembly.
In their anger they committed murder
and lamed cattle just for fun.
