In context

4Unstable as water, thou shalt not excel; because thou wentest up to thy father's bed; then defiledst thou : he went up to my couch.

5Simeon and Levi brethren; instruments of cruelty their habitations.

6O my soul, come not thou into their secret; unto their assembly, mine honour, be not thou united: for in their anger they slew a man, and in their selfwill they digged down a wall.

7Cursed their anger, for fierce; and their wrath, for it was cruel: I will divide them in Jacob, and scatter them in Israel.

8Judah, thou whom thy brethren shall praise: thy hand in the neck of thine enemies; thy father's children shall bow down before thee.
