3HearH8085, O ye kingsH4428; giveH238 earH238, O ye princes;I, evenI, will singH2167 unto Jehovah;I will singH2167 praiseH2167 to Jehovah, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478.4Jehovah, when thou wentest forthH3318 out of SeirH8165,When thou marchedst out of the fieldH7704 of EdomH123,The earthH776 trembled, the heavensH8064 alsoH1571 dropped,Yea, the cloudsH5645 dropped waterH4325.5The mountainsH2022 quaked at the presenceH6440 of Jehovah,Even yon SinaiH5514 at the presenceH6440 of Jehovah, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478.6In the daysH3117 of ShamgarH8044 the sonH1121 of AnathH6067,In the daysH3117 of JaelH3278, the highways were unoccupied,And the travellers walkedH1980 through byways.7The rulers ceasedH2308 in IsraelH3478, they ceasedH2308,Until that I DeborahH1683 aroseH6965,That I aroseH6965 a motherH517 in IsraelH3478.8They choseH977 newH2319 godsH430;ThenH227 was war in the gatesH8179:Was there a shieldH4043 or spearH7420 seenH7200Among fortyH705 thousandH505 in IsraelH3478?9My heartH3820 is toward the governors of IsraelH3478,That offeredH5068 themselves willingly among the peopleH5971:BlessH1288 ye Jehovah.10Tell of it, ye that rideH7392 on white asses,Ye that sitH3427 on rich carpets,And ye that walkH1980 by the wayH1870.11Far from the noise of archers, in the places of drawing water,There shall they rehearse the righteous acts of Jehovah,Eventhe righteous acts of his rule in IsraelH3478.ThenH227 the peopleH5971 of Jehovah wentH3381 downH3381 to the gatesH8179.
