6 I will not join in their secret talks,Nor will I take part in their meetings,For they killed men in angerAnd they crippled bulls for sport.
7 A curse be on their anger, because it is so fierce,And on their fury, because it is so cruel.I will scatter them throughout the land of Israel.I will disperse them among its people.
8 “Judah, your brothers will praise you.You hold your enemies by the neck.Your brothers will bow down before you.
9 Judah is like a lion,Killing his victim and returning to his den,Stretching out and lying down.No one dares disturb him.
10 Judah will hold the royal sceptre,And his descendants will always rule.Nations will bring him tributeAnd bow in obedience before him.
11 He ties his young donkey to a grapevine,To the very best of the vines.He washes his clothes in blood-red wine.
12 His eyes are bloodshot from drinking wine,His teeth white from drinking milk.
