Genesis 49:8-10

EasyEnglish Bible

Judah

⁸ Judah, your brothers will praise you. You will win against your enemies. Your father's sons will bend down towards the ground in front of you.

⁹ Judah is like a young lion who has eaten good food. He has eaten what he killed and now he rests. Nobody would want to try and wake him up!

¹⁰ Judah's descendants will always rule as king. They will continue to hold the stick and the sceptre that show the king's authority. They will do that until the man comes who truly has that authority. People from all nations will obey that king.^[a]
