He said this about Judah:

Lord, hear Judah’s cry and bring him to his people.
He fights for his cause[a] with his own hands,
but may You be a help against his foes.

He said about Levi:

Your Thummim and Urim belong to Your faithful one;[b]
You tested him at Massah
and contended with him at the waters of Meribah.(A)
He said about his father and mother,
“I do not regard them.”
He disregarded his brothers
and didn’t acknowledge his sons,
for they kept Your word
and maintained Your covenant.(B)
