⁸ “Judah,^(A) you are he whom your brothers shall praise;
^(B)Your hand shall be on the neck of your enemies;
^(C)Your father’s children shall bow down before you.
⁹ Judah is ^(D)a lion’s whelp;
From the prey, my son, you have gone up.
^(E)He ^[a]bows down, he lies down as a lion;
And as a lion, who shall rouse him?
^10 (F)The ^[b]scepter shall not depart from Judah,
Nor ^(G)a lawgiver from between his feet,
^(H)Until Shiloh comes;
^(I)And to Him shall be the obedience of the people.
