4Boiling over as water, you shall not have the pre-eminence; Because you went up to your father`s bed; Then defiled it. He went up to my couch.
5"Simeon and Levi are brothers; Weapons of violence are their swords.
6My soul, don`t come into their council; My glory, don`t be united to their assembly; For in their anger they killed a man, In their self-will they hamstrung an ox.
7Cursed be their anger, for it was fierce; Their wrath, for it was cruel. I will divide them in Jacob, Scatter them in Israel.
8"Judah, your brothers will praise you: Your hand will be on the neck of your enemies; Your father`s sons will bow down before you.
9Judah is a lion`s whelp. From the prey, my son, you have gone up. He stooped down, he couched as a lion, As a lioness. Who will rouse him up?
10The scepter will not depart from Judah, Nor the ruler`s staff from between his feet, Until Shiloh comes. To him will the obedience of the peoples be.
