“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.
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.
