Genesis 49:6-8

New International Reader's Version

⁶I won’t share in their plans.
    I won’t have anything to do with them.
They became angry and killed people.
    They cut the legs of oxen just for the fun of it.
⁷May the Lord put a curse on them
    because of their terrible anger.
I will scatter them in Jacob’s land.
    I will spread them around in Israel.

⁸“Judah, your brothers will praise you.
Your enemies will be brought under your control.
Your father’s sons will bow down to you.
