Genesis 49:15-17
GOD’S WORD Translation
15 When he sees that his resting place is good
and that the land is pleasant,
he will bend his back to the burden
and will become a slave laborer.
16 “Dan will hand down decisions [a] for his people
as one of the tribes of Israel.
17 Dan will be a snake on a road,
a viper on a path,
that bites a horse’s heels
so that its rider falls off backwards.
Footnotes
- 49:16 There is a play on words here between Hebrew Dan and yadin (he will hand down decisions).
