    your hand shall be on the neck of your enemies;
    your father’s sons shall bow down before you.(A)

    like a lioness—who dares rouse him up?(B)
10 The scepter shall not depart from Judah,
    nor the ruler’s staff from between his feet,
until tribute comes to him,[a]
    and the obedience of the peoples is his.(C)
11 Binding his foal to the vine
    and his donkey’s colt to the choice vine,
he washes his garments in wine
    and his robe in the blood of grapes;
12 his eyes are darker than wine
    and his teeth whiter than milk.
