Genesis 49:6

Plain English Version

They got really angry, so they killed a big mob of men. They are like people that caught a lot of cows and cut their legs, for no reason. They make secret plans, but I will not do that with them. I will not go with them to do bad things.

Well, now those tribes will hate us, because you finished up Shekem’s mob. And maybe those tribes will join together and attack us. My mob is small, so we will not be able to fight those big tribes, and then they will finish us up, me and my family.”
