Genesis 49:9-11

Tree of Life Version

⁹ A lion’s cub is Judah—
    from the prey, my son,
    you have gone up.
He crouches, lies down like a lion,
    or like a lioness—
    who would rouse him?^[a]
10 The scepter will not pass from Judah,
    nor the ruler’s staff from between his feet,^[b]
    until he to whom it belongs will come.
To him will be the obedience of the peoples.^[c]
11 Binding his foal to the vine,
    his donkey’s colt to the choice vine,^[d]
    he washes his garments in wine,
    and in the blood of grapes his robe.^[e]
