"Issachar is a strong ass stretched out among the flocks:"
— Genesis 49:14, Bible in Basic English
“Issachar is a strong ass couching down between two burdens:”
Knotting his ass's cord to the vine, and his young ass to the best vine; washing his robe in wine, and his clothing in the blood of grapes:
His eyes will be dark with wine, and his teeth white with milk.
The resting-place of Zebulun will be by the sea, and he will be a harbour for ships; the edge of his land will be by Zidon.
Issachar is a strong ass stretched out among the flocks:
And he saw that rest was good and the land was pleasing; so he let them put weights on his back and became a servant.
Dan will be the judge of his people, as one of the tribes of Israel.
May Dan be a snake in the way, a horned snake by the road, biting the horse's foot so that the horseman has a fall.
