Genesis 49:14-15

The *tribe of Issachar would have land that was good for farming. They would work hard on their land.

v16 ‘Dan shall be a judge for his people.

They shall be as the other families in Israel.

v17 Dan shall be like a snake on the way.

He shall be like a snake that waits by the path.

It bites the horse’s feet

so that the rider falls from the horse.

v18 I wait until you save me, *Lord.

v19 Robbers shall attack Gad,

but he shall attack them from behind.

v20 Asher shall eat good food every day.

He shall provide food that is for a king.

v21 Naphtali is a wild animal that goes free.

Its young ones are lovely.’
