Genesis 49:7-9
1599 Geneva Bible
7 Cursed be their wrath, for it was fierce, and their rage, for it was cruel: I will [a]divide them in Jacob, and scatter them in Israel.
8 ¶ Thou Judah, thy brethren shall praise thee: thy hand shall be in the neck of thine enemies: thy father’s son shall [b]bow down before unto thee.
9 Judah as a Lion’s whelp shalt thou come up from the spoil, my son. He shall lie down and couch a Lion, and as a Lioness: [c]Who shall stir him up?
