JUDG 5:10 Riders on white asses -- Sitters on a long robe -- And walkers by the way -- meditate!
JUDG 5:11 By the voice of shouters Between the places of drawing water, There they give out righteous acts of Jehovah, Righteous acts of His villages in Israel, Then ruled in the gates have the people of Jehovah.
JUDG 5:12 Awake, awake, Deborah; Awake, awake, utter a song; Rise, Barak, and take captive thy captivity, Son of Abinoam.
JUDG 5:13 Then him who is left of the honourable ones He caused to rule the people of Jehovah, He caused me to rule among the mighty.

JUDG 5:15 And princes in Issachar `are' with Deborah, Yea, Issachar `is' right with Barak, Into the valley he was sent on his feet. In the divisions of Reuben, Great `are' the decrees of heart!
JUDG 5:16 Why hast thou abode between the boundaries, To hear lowings of herds? For the divisions of Reuben, Great `are' the searchings of heart!
JUDG 5:17 Gilead beyond the Jordan did tabernacle, And Dan -- why doth he sojourn `in' ships? Asher hath abode at the haven of the seas, And by his creeks doth tabernacle.
JUDG 5:18 Zebulun `is' a people who exposed its soul to death, Naphtali also -- on high places of the field.
JUDG 5:19 Kings came -- they fought; Then fought kings of Canaan, In Taanach, by the waters of Megiddo; Gain of money they took not!

JUDG 5:23 Curse Meroz -- said a messenger of Jehovah, Cursing, curse ye its inhabitants, For they came not to the help of Jehovah, To the help of Jehovah among the mighty!

JUDG 5:25 Water he asked -- milk she gave; In a lordly dish she brought near butter.
JUDG 5:26 Her hand to the pin she sendeth forth, And her right hand to the labourers' hammer, And she hammered Sisera -- she smote his head, Yea, she smote, and it passed through his temple.

JUDG 5:29 The wise ones, her princesses, answer her, Yea, she returneth her sayings to herself:
JUDG 5:30 Do they not find? -- they apportion spoil, A female -- two females -- for every head, Spoil of finger-work for Sisera, Spoil of embroidered finger-work, Finger-work -- a pair of embroidered things, For the necks of the spoil!
JUDG 5:31 So do all Thine enemies perish, O Jehovah, And those loving Him `are' As the going out of the sun in its might!' and the land resteth forty years.
