Genesis 49:8-11

Christian Standard Bible Anglicised

⁸ Judah, your brothers will praise you.^(A)
Your hand will be on the necks of your enemies;
your father’s sons will bow down to you.^(B)
9 Judah is a young lion^(C) –
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 sceptre will not depart from Judah
or the staff from between his feet
until he whose right it is comes^[a](D)
and the obedience of the peoples belongs to him.^(E)
11 He ties his donkey to a vine,
and the colt of his donkey to the choice vine.
He washes his clothes in wine
and his robes in the blood of grapes.
