Judges 5:5-17

5The mountainsH2022 quaked before the faceH6440 of Jehovah, That SinaiH5514, from before Jehovah the 1GodH430 of IsraelH3478.

6In the daysH3117 of ShamgarH8044 the sonH1121 of AnathH6067, in the daysH3117 of JaelH3278, The roads were unused, and the travellers on highways wentH1980 by crooked pathsH734.

7The villages ceasedH2308 in IsraelH3478, CeasedH2308 until that I DeborahH1683 aroseH6965, That I aroseH6965 a motherH517 in IsraelH3478.

8They choseH977 newH2319 2godsH430; thenH227 was war in the gatesH8179: Was there a shieldH4043 or spearH7420 seenH7200 among fortyH705 thousandH505 in IsraelH3478?

9My heartH3820 is toward the governors of IsraelH3478, who offeredH5068 themselves willingly among the peopleH5971. BlessH1288 Jehovah!

10Ye that rideH7392 on white she-asses, ye that sitH3427 on carpets, and ye that walkH1980 by the wayH1870, consider.

11Because of the voiceH6963 of those who divide [the spoil] in the midst of the places of drawing water; There they rehearse the righteous acts of Jehovah, His righteous acts toward his villages in IsraelH3478. ThenH227 the peopleH5971 of Jehovah wentH3381 downH3381 to the gatesH8179.

12AwakeH5782, awakeH5782, DeborahH1683! awakeH5782, awakeH5782, utter a songH7892! AriseH6965, BarakH1301, and lead captiveH7617 thy captivesH7628, thou sonH1121 of AbinoamH42!

13ThenH227 come down, thou, the remnant of noblesH117, [as his] peopleH5971; Jehovah! come down with me in the midst of the mightyH1368 onesH1368.

14Out of EphraimH669 [cameH3381] those whose rootH8328 was in AmalekH6002; After thee was BenjaminH1144 among thy peoplesH5971. Out of Machir cameH3381 downH3381 governors, And out of ZebulunH2074 they that handled the staffH7626 of the ruler.

15And the princesH8269 in IssacharH3485 were with DeborahH1683; And IssacharH3485, like BarakH1301; They were sentH7971 into the valleyH6010 at his feetH7272. In the divisions of ReubenH7205 there were greatH1419 resolves of heartH3820!

16WhyH4100 abodest thou among the sheepfolds, To hearH8085 the bleating of the flocksH5739? In the divisions of ReubenH7205 there were greatH1419 deliberations of heartH3820!

17GileadH1568 abode beyond JordanH3383; And DanH1835, whyH4100 did he remainH3427 in shipsH591? AsherH836 satH3427 on the sea-shore, And abode in his creeks.
