Until he comes, the sceptre will not pass from Judah
A Reading from the Book of Genesis 49: 2,8-10
In those days: Jacob called his sons, and said, “Assemble and listen, O sons of Jacob, listen to Israel your father. Judah, your brothers shall praise you; your hand shall be on the neck of your enemies; your father’s sons shall bow down before you. Judah is a lion’s cub; from the prey, my son, you have gone up. He stooped down; he crouched as a lion and as a lioness; who dares rouse him? The sceptre shall not depart from Judah, nor the ruler’s staff from between his feet, until tribute comes to him; and to him shall be the obedience of the peoples.”
The word of the Lord.
