My might and the beginning of my strength,
The excellency of dignity and the excellency of power.
Because you awent up to your father’s bed;
Then you defiled it—
He went up to my couch.
Let not my honor be united bto their assembly;
cFor in their anger they slew a man,
And in their self-will they1 hamstrung an ox.
And their wrath, for it is cruel!
aI will divide them in Jacob
And scatter them in Israel.
bYour hand shall be on the neck of your enemies;
cYour father’s children shall bow down before you.
From the prey, my son, you have gone up.
bHe bows down, he lies down as a lion;
And as a lion, who shall rouse him?
