(KJV.) GENESIS 49:8-14
Jacob blesses his sons.
(8) Judah, thou art he whom thy brethren shall praise thy hand shall be in the neck of thine enemies; thy father's children shall bow down before thee.
(9) Judah is lion's whelp; From the prey, my son, thou art gone up: he stooped down, he couched as a lion, and as an old lion; who shall rouse him up?
(10) The scepter shall not depart from Judah, nor a lawgiver from between his feet; until Shiloh come; and unto him shall the gathering of the people be.
(11) Binding his foal unto the vine, and his ass's colt unto the choice vine; he washed his garments in wine and his clothes in the blood of grapes.
(12) His eyes shall be red with wine, and his teeth white with milk.
(13) Zebulun shall dwell at the haven of the sea, and he shall be for an haven of ships;, and his border shall be unto Zidon.
(14) Issachar is a strong ass couching down between two burdens:
ADDENDUM
Why did Judah receive more praises than his brothers?
