Genesis 49:4

פַּחַז כַּמַּיִם אַל תּוֹתַר
King James Version (KJV)

Unstable as water, you shall not have preeminence, because you went up to your father's bed; then you defiled it — he went up to my couch!

Modern English

Boiling over like water, you shall not excel; because you went up to your father’s bed, then defiled it. He went up to my couch.
