Genesis 49:8

Context

49:8 Judah, 1  your brothers will praise you.

Your hand will be on the neck of your enemies,

your father’s sons will bow down before you.

1 sn There is a wordplay here; the name Judah (יְהוּדָה, yÿhudah) sounds in Hebrew like the verb translated praise (יוֹדוּךָ, yodukha). The wordplay serves to draw attention to the statement as having special significance.
