Jacob’s Last Words to His Sons
3“Reuben, you are my firstborn, My might and the beginning of my strength, The excellency of dignity and the excellency of power.
4Unstable as water, you shall not excel, Because you went up to your father’s bed; Then you defiled it— He went up to my couch.
Genesis 49:3-4 (NKJV)
