⁷ Their anger is so strong that it is a curse.
    They are too cruel when they are angry.
They will not get their own land in the land of Jacob.
    They will be spread throughout Israel.

⁸ “Judah, your brothers will praise you.
    You will defeat your enemies.
    Your brothers will bow down to you.
⁹ Judah is like a young lion.
    My son, you are like a lion standing over the animal it killed.
Like a lion, Judah lies down to rest,
    and no one is brave enough to disturb him.
