Zebulun

13 “Zebulun will live near the sea.
    His seacoast will be a safe place for ships.
    His land will continue as far as the city of Sidon.

Issachar

14 “Issachar is like a donkey that has worked too hard.
    He will lie down under his heavy load.
15 He will see his land is pleasant
    and that his resting place is good.
But he will agree to carry heavy loads;
    he will agree to work as a slave.
