or a lioness--who dares to rouse him?
10. The scepter will not depart from Judah
or a lioness—who dares to rouse him?
10 The scepter will not depart from Judah
or the staff from between his feet
until he whose right it is comes
and the obedience of the peoples belongs to him.
11. He ties his donkey to a vine,

and his teeth are whiter than milk.

and became a forced laborer.

so that its rider falls backward.
