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?

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.
