Genesis 49:9-10

9 Judah is ^aa lion’s cub;
from the prey, my son, you have gone up.
^bHe stooped down; he crouched as a lion
and as a lioness; who dares rouse him?
10 The ^cscepter shall not depart from Judah,
nor the ruler’s staff ^dfrom 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.

Numbers 23:24

24 Behold, a people! ^fAs a lioness it rises up
and as a lion it lifts itself;
^git does not lie down until it has devoured the prey
and drunk the blood of the slain.”

Numbers 24:9

9 He crouched, he lay down like a lion
and ^hlike a lioness; who will rouse him up?
ⁱBlessed are those who bless you,
and cursed are those who curse you.”

Revelation of John 5:5

5 And one of the elders said to me, “Weep no more; behold, ^jthe Lion ^kof the tribe of Judah, ^lthe Root of David, has conquered, so that he can open the scroll and its seven seals.”
