New King James Version

Genesis 49:13-18 New King James Version (NKJV)

13. “Zebulun shall dwell by the haven of the sea;He shall become a haven for ships,And his border shall adjoin Sidon.

14. “Issachar is a strong donkey,Lying down between two burdens;

15. He saw that rest was good,And that the land was pleasant;He bowed his shoulder to bear a burden,And became a band of slaves.

16. “Dan shall judge his peopleAs one of the tribes of Israel.

17. Dan shall be a serpent by the way,A viper by the path,That bites the horse’s heelsSo that its rider shall fall backward.

18. I have waited for your salvation, O Lord!
