Genesis 49:15-17

The Voice

¹⁵    He saw a good place to rest
        and a land that seemed pleasant,
    So he bent down to shoulder another load
        and embraced a life of hard labor.

¹⁶    Dan will judge his people,
        as one of the tribes of Israel.
¹⁷    Yet Dan will also be a snake by the road,
        a viper along the path
    That strikes at the horse’s heels as it goes by
        so that its rider falls backward.
