Genesis 49:5-8

Simeon and Levi,
you are brothers,
each a gruesome sword.
I never want to take part
in your plans or deeds.
You slaughtered people
in your anger,
and you crippled cattle
for no reason.
Now I place a curse on you
because of
your fierce anger.
Your descendants
will be scattered
among the tribes of Israel.

Judah, you will be praised
by your brothers;
they will bow down to you,
as you defeat your enemies.
