10 The scepter will not depart from Judah,
    nor the ruler’s staff from his descendants,[a]
until the coming of the one to whom it belongs,[b]
    the one whom all nations will honor.

    the colt of his donkey to a choice vine.

    his robes in the blood of grapes.
12 His eyes are darker than wine,
    and his teeth are whiter than milk.
