Jacob’s Prophecy concerning His Sons

³¶“Reuben, you are my firstborn, My might and the beginning of my strength, Preeminent in dignity and preeminent in power.

⁴“Uncontrollable as water, you shall not have preeminence, Because you went up to your father’s bed; Then you defiled it—he went up to my couch.
