- "Judahª [is] a lion'sª whelp:ª from the prey,ª¹ my son,ª thou art gone up:ª° he stooped down,ª° he couchedª° as a lion,ª and as an old lion;ª who¹ shall rouse him up?ª° ... The sceptreª shall not¹ departª° from Judah,ª¹ nor a lawgiverª° from between¹¹ his feet,ª untilª¹ Shilohª come;ª° and unto him [shall] the gatheringª of the peopleª [be]." {Gen 49:9-10} + "Behold,¹ the peopleª shall rise upª° as a great lion,ª and lift up²° himself¹ as a young lion:ª he shall not¹ lie downª° until¹ he eatª° [of] the prey,ª and drinkª° the bloodª of the slain.ª" {Num 23:24} + "He couched,ª° he lay downª° as a lion,ª and as a great lion:ª who¹ shall stir him up?ª° Blessedª° [is] he that blessethª° thee, and cursedª° [is] he that cursethª° thee." {Num 24:9} + "Andª oneª ofª the¹ eldersª saithª° unto me,ª Weepª° not:ª behold,ª° the¹ Lionª¹ ofª²° the¹ tribeª of Juda,ª the¹ Rootª of David,ª hath prevailedª° to openª° the¹ book,ª andª to looseª° the¹ sevenª sealsª thereof.²¹" {Rev 5:5}
