(Genesis 48:21-22)
21 Then Israel said to Joseph, "Behold, I am dying,
but God will be with you and bring you back to the land
of your fathers.
22 "Moreover I have given to you one portion above
your brothers, which I took from the hand of the Amorite
with my sword and my bow."
(Genesis 49:8-12)
8 "Judah, you are he whom your brothers shall
praise; your hand shall be on the neck of your enemies;
your father's children shall bow down before you.
9 Judah is a lion's whelp; from the prey, my son, you
have gone up. He bows down, he lies down as a lion; and
as a lion, who shall rouse him?
10 The scepter shall not depart from Judah, nor a
lawgiver from between his feet, until Shiloh comes; and
to Him shall be the obedience of the people.
11 Binding his donkey to the vine, and his donkey's colt
to the choice vine, he washed his garments in wine, and
his clothes in the blood of grapes.
12 His eyes are darker than wine, and his teeth whiter
than milk.
(NKJV)
