Genesis 49:3-5

Tree of Life Version

³ Reuben, my firstborn are you,
my vigor and firstborn of my power,
    endowed with extra dignity,
    endowed with extra strength—
⁴ like water boiling over
you will not have extra,
for you got up into your father’s bed,
when you defiled a maid’s couch.

⁵ Simeon and Levi are brothers,
    instruments of violence are their knives.
