In context

11Binding his foal to the vine, And the foal of his ass to the branch of it, He shall wash his robe in wine, And his garment in the blood of the grape.

12His eyes shall be more cheering than wine, And his teeth whiter than milk.

— Genesis 49:13 —

14Issachar has desired that which is good; Resting between the inheritances.

15And having seen the resting place that it was good, And the land that it was fertile, He subjected his shoulder to labor, And became a husbandman.
