Genesis 34:30
New International Version
30 Then Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, “You have brought trouble(A) on me by making me obnoxious(B) to the Canaanites and Perizzites, the people living in this land.(C) We are few in number,(D) and if they join forces against me and attack me, I and my household will be destroyed.”
Genesis 49:5-7
New International Version
5 “Simeon(A) and Levi(B) are brothers—
their swords[a] are weapons of violence.(C)
6 Let me not enter their council,
let me not join their assembly,(D)
for they have killed men in their anger(E)
and hamstrung(F) oxen as they pleased.
7 Cursed be their anger, so fierce,
and their fury,(G) so cruel!(H)
I will scatter them in Jacob
and disperse them in Israel.(I)
