Genesis 49:4-6
Christian Standard Bible
4 Turbulent as water, you will not excel,
because you got into your father’s bed(A)
and you defiled it—he[a] got into my bed.
5 Simeon and Levi are brothers;
their knives are vicious weapons.(B)
6 May I never enter their council;
may I never join their assembly.
For in their anger they kill men,
and on a whim they hamstring oxen.
