Genesis 49

3 Ruben, thou *49. 3 Or, thou my first-born, etc., nom. and voc. not being always regularly distinguished in the LXX. See Heb. 1. 8. ὁ θεὸς.art my first-born, thou my strength, and the first of my children, hard to be endured, hard and self-willed. 4 Thou wast insolent like water, burst not forth with violence, for thou wentest up to the bed of thy father; then thou defiledst the couch, whereupon thou wentest up.
