uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism

אָר֤וּר אַפָּ⁠ם֙ כִּ֣י עָ֔ז וְ⁠עֶבְרָתָ֖⁠ם כִּ֣י קָשָׁ֑תָה

cursing anger_of,their that/for/because/then/when fierce and,wrath_of,their that/for/because/then/when cruel

Consider what is the best way to translate this parallelism in your language. Also, consider again how you translated “cursed” in the book of Genesis. See Gen 3:14 (and note), 17; 4:11; 5:29; 8:21; 9:25; 12:3; 27:12-13, 29; 49:7. Alternate translation: [May God curse them for your intense anger and your malicious fury!] or [I ask God to punish them for being so intensely angry and malicious!]

אֲחַלְּקֵ֣⁠ם

I,will_divide_them

The last half of verse 7 specifies how Jacob is asking God to curse Simeon and Levi. Alternate translation: [I ask God to disperse them and their descendants] or [May he cause them and their descendants to be spread out]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy

בְּ⁠יַעֲקֹ֔ב

in,Jacob

In this context, the name Jacob refers to his family and especially his descendants. Alternate translation: [among the family of Jacob]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / parallelism

וַ⁠אֲפִיצֵ֖⁠ם

and,I,will_scatter_them

The clauses “I will divide …” and “I will scatter …” form a parallelism that emphasizes the way Jacob is asking God to curse Simeon and Levi. If possible, it is best to keep both parts of a parallelism in your translation. Alternate translation: [Yes, I will]

וַ⁠אֲפִיצֵ֖⁠ם

and,I,will_scatter_them

Consider again how you translated scatter in the book of Genesis. See Gen 10:18, 32; 11:4, 8-9; 49:7. It may be necessary to translate this term in different ways, depending on the context. If the pronoun “you” is used here in your translation, it should be plural. Alternate translation: [disperse you] or [cause them to be spread out]

בְּ⁠יִשְׂרָאֵֽל

in,Israel

Jacob’s prophecy in verse 7 came true many years later: the tribe of Simeon was absorbed by the tribe of Judah (Joshua 19:1), and the tribe of Levi never had its own territory, but rather lived in cities scattered throughout the other tribes of Israel (Joshua 21:1-42). You could put this information in a footnote. Alternate translation: [throughout the descendants of Israel]
