1 Then Jacob (he grasps the heel) called for his sons and said, “Gather around so that I can tell you⁺ what will happen to you⁺ in the days to come: 2 Come together and listen, O sons of Jacob (he grasps the heel); listen to your⁺ father Israel (he wrestles with God). 3 Reuben (behold a son), you are my firstborn, my might, and the beginning of my strength, excelling in honor, excelling in power. 4 Uncontrolled as the waters, you will no longer excel, because you went up to your father’s bed, onto my couch, and defiled it.
