8 “Judah, ayour brothers shall praise you;byour hand shall be on the neck of your enemies;
cyour father’s sons shall bow down before you.
9Judah is da lion’s cub;
from the prey, my son, you have gone up.
eHe stooped down; he crouched as a lion
and as a lioness; who dares rouse him?
10The fscepter shall not depart from Judah,
nor the ruler’s staff gfrom between his feet,
until tribute comes to him; ▼
▼By a slight revocalization; a slight emendation yields (compare Septuagint, Syriac, Targum) until he comes to whom it belongs; Hebrew until Shiloh comes, or until he comes to Shiloh
and to him shall be the obedience of the peoples.
