(A)Simeon and Levi are brothers;
Their [a]swords are implements of violence.
(B)May my soul not enter into their council;
May my glory not be united with their assembly;
For in their anger they killed [b]men,
And in their self-will they lamed [c]oxen.
Cursed be their anger, for it is fierce;
And their wrath, for it is cruel.
(C)I will scatter them in Jacob,
And disperse them among Israel.
