Genesis 49:7-9

Revised Geneva Translation

⁷ “Cursed be their wrath, for it was fierce, and their rage, for it was cruel. I will divide them in Jacob and scatter them in Israel.

⁸ “You, Judah. Your brothers shall praise you. Your hand shall be on the neck of your enemies. Your father’s sons shall bow down before you.

⁹ “Judah, as a lion’s cub you shall come up from the prey, my son. He shall lie down and crouch as a lion, and as a lioness. Who shall stir him up?
