Genesis 49:9-10
9 Judah, my son, is a young lion that has finished eating its prey. Like a lion he crouches and lies down; like a lioness-who dares to rouse him? 10 The scepter will not depart from Judah, nor the ruler's staff from his descendants, until the coming of the one to whom it belongs, the one whom all nations will honor.
