In context
1 Kisha Yakobo akawaita wana wake, na kusema: “Jikusanyeni pamoja, ili niwaambie yatakayowapata nyakati zijazo.
2 Kusanyikeni ninyi wenyewe na msikilize, enyi wana wa Yakobo. Msikilizeni Israeli, baba yenu.
3 Reubeni, wewe ni mzaliwa wangu wa kwanza, nguvu zangu, na mwanzo wa uwezo wangu, aliyesalia katika heshima na nguvu.
4 Asiyezuilika kama maji yarukayo, hautakuwa na umaharufu, kwa sababu ulikwenda juu ya kitanda cha baba yako. Hata ukakitia unajisi; ulikipanda kwa kuvizia.
5 Simoni na Lawi ni ndugu. Panga zao ni silaha za vurugu.
6 Ee nafsi yangu, usiingie barazani pao; usiingie katika mikutano yao, kwani moyo wangu unaheshima kubwa kwa ajili yao. Kwani katika hasira yao waliua watu. Iliwapendeza kuwakata visigino ng'ombe.
7 Hasira yao na ilaaniwe, kwani ilikuwa kali - na ukali wao, kwani ulikuwa ni katili. Nitawagawa katika Yakobo na kuwatawanya katika Israeli.
