Judah’s tribe will always be important and powerful. Leaders and big bosses will come from his tribe. People from other countries will bring them gifts. And people from different nations will respect them and do what they say.

Then Jacob said, “Lots of people will be born into Joseph’s family. Yes, Joseph’s family will grow big, just like a grape vine that grows near a spring of water, and has lots of fruit. Its branches are so long, they grow over a big wall. Joseph’s enemies hated him, they attacked him and made trouble for him.

But he didn’t give up, God helped him to stand strong. Yes, God, my God, he is the one that has all the power. God looks after his people properly, just like a man looks after his sheep properly. God is like solid rock, he keeps his people safe.” Jacob kept on talking to Joseph. He said, “My God will help you. God has power over everything, and he will be good to you. He will make rain come down from the sky, and he will make water come up from springs under the ground, so that your land will grow really good food. You will have lots of kids and grand-kids, and your animals will have lots of babies.

Then Jacob said, “Judah, your tribe will fight against their enemies, and your tribe will win. Then the tribes of all your brothers, they will say that your tribe is really great, and they will bend down in front of your tribe, to show them respect.” Jacob also said, “My son Judah is like a strong young lion, like a lion that fought another animal and won, like a lion that killed an animal and ate it. He is like a lion that lies down to sleep, and nobody is brave enough to wake it up.

Then Jacob said, “Reuben, you are my oldest son. You were born first. You were born at that time when I was a strong young man. You were the most important and the most powerful of all my sons. But then you went and did whatever you wanted, just like the wild water in the sea. You took one of my wives, and you slept with her, like a man sleeps with his wife. That was a wrong and dirty thing you did. You made me really shamed. So you will not be my most important son any more.”
