8 Judah, you are the one your brothers will honor;your hand will be on the neck of your enemies;your father’s sons will bow down to you.
9 Judah is a lion’s cub;from the prey, my son, you rise up.He lies down and crouches like a lion;like a lioness—who dares disturb him?
10 The scepter won’t depart from Judah,nor the ruler’s staff from among his banners.Gifts will be brought to him;people will obey him.
11 He ties his male donkey to the vine,the colt of his female donkey to the vine’s branches.He washes his clothes in wine,his garments in the blood of grapes.
12 His eyes are darker than wine,and his teeth whiter than milk.
13 Zebulun will live at the seashore;he’ll live at the harbor of ships,his border will be at Sidon.
14 Issachar is a sturdy donkey,bedding down beside the village hearths.
