8 Judah, your brothers will praise you.c

Your hand will be on the necks of your enemies;

your father’s sons will bow down to you.d

9 Judah is a young lione—

my son, you return from the kill.

He crouches; he lies down like a lion

or a lioness—who dares to rouse him?

10 The scepter will not depart from Judah

or the staff from between his feet

until he whose right it is comesA,f

and the obedience of the peoples belongs to him.g
