Genesis 49:8-10
English Standard Version
8 “Judah, (A)your brothers shall praise you;
(B)your hand shall be on the neck of your enemies;
(C)your father's sons shall bow down before you.
9 Judah is (D)a lion's cub;
from the prey, my son, you have gone up.
(E)He stooped down; he crouched as a lion
and as a lioness; who dares rouse him?
10 The (F)scepter shall not depart from Judah,
nor the ruler's staff (G)from between his feet,
until tribute comes to him;[a]
and to him shall be the obedience of the peoples.
