Judges 5:6-24

6In the daysH3117 of ShamgarH8044 the sonH1121 of AnathH6067, in the daysH3117 of JaelH3278, the highwaysH734 were unoccupiedH2308, and the travellersH1980 walkedH3212 through bywaysH5410H6128.12

7The inhabitants of the villagesH6520 ceasedH2308, they ceasedH2308 in IsraelH3478, until that I DeborahH1683 aroseH6965, that I aroseH6965 a motherH517 in IsraelH3478.

8They choseH977 newH2319 godsH430; then was warH3901 in the gatesH8179: was there a shieldH4043 or spearH7420 seenH7200 among fortyH705 thousandH505 in IsraelH3478?

9My heartH3820 is toward the governorsH2710 of IsraelH3478, that offered themselves willinglyH5068 among the peopleH5971. BlessH1288 ye the LordH3068.

10SpeakH7878, ye that rideH7392 on whiteH6715 assesH860, ye that sitH3427 in judgmentH4055, and walkH1980 by the wayH1870.3

11They that are delivered from the noiseH6963 of archersH2686 in the places of drawing waterH4857, there shall they rehearseH8567 the righteous actsH6666 of the LordH3068, even the righteous actsH6666 toward the inhabitants of his villagesH6520 in IsraelH3478: then shall the peopleH5971 of the LordH3068 go downH3381 to the gatesH8179.4

12AwakeH5782, awakeH5782, DeborahH1683: awakeH5782, awakeH5782, utterH1696 a songH7892: ariseH6965, BarakH1301, and lead thy captivityH7628 captiveH7617, thou sonH1121 of AbinoamH42.

13Then he made him that remainethH8300 have dominionH7287 over the noblesH117 among the peopleH5971: the LordH3068 made me have dominionH7287 over the mightyH1368.

14Out of EphraimH669 was there a rootH8328 of them against AmalekH6002; afterH310 thee, BenjaminH1144, among thy peopleH5971; out of MachirH4353 came downH3381 governorsH2710, and out of ZebulunH2074 they that handleH4900 the penH7626 of the writerH5608.5

15And the princesH8269 of IssacharH3485 were with DeborahH1683; even IssacharH3485, and also BarakH1301: he was sentH7971 on footH7272 into the valleyH6010. For the divisionsH6390 of ReubenH7205 there were greatH1419 thoughtsH2711 of heartH3820.678

16Why abodestH3427 thou amongH996 the sheepfoldsH4942, to hearH8085 the bleatingsH8292 of the flocksH5739? For the divisionsH6390 of ReubenH7205 there were greatH1419 searchingsH2714 of heartH3820.9

17GileadH1568 abodeH7931 beyondH5676 JordanH3383: and why did DanH1835 remainH1481 in shipsH591? AsherH836 continuedH3427 on the seaH3220 shoreH2348, and abodeH7931 in his breachesH4664.1011

18ZebulunH2074 and NaphtaliH5321 were a peopleH5971 that jeopardedH2778 their livesH5315 unto the deathH4191 in the high placesH4791 of the fieldH7704.12

19The kingsH4428 cameH935 and foughtH3898, then foughtH3898 the kingsH4428 of CanaanH3667 in TaanachH8590 by the watersH4325 of MegiddoH4023; they tookH3947 no gainH1215 of moneyH3701.

20They foughtH3898 from heavenH8064; the starsH3556 in their coursesH4546 foughtH3898 against SiseraH5516.13

21The riverH5158 of KishonH7028 swept them awayH1640, that ancientH6917 riverH5158, the riverH5158 KishonH7028. O my soulH5315, thou hast trodden downH1869 strengthH5797.

22Then were the horsehoofsH5483H6119 brokenH1986 by the means of the pransingsH1726, the pransingsH1726 of their mighty onesH47.14

23CurseH779 ye MerozH4789, saidH559 the angelH4397 of the LordH3068, curseH779 ye bitterlyH779 the inhabitantsH3427 thereof; because they cameH935 not to the helpH5833 of the LordH3068, to the helpH5833 of the LordH3068 against the mightyH1368.

24BlessedH1288 above womenH802 shall JaelH3278 the wifeH802 of HeberH2268 the KeniteH7017 be, blessedH1288 shall she be above womenH802 in the tentH168.
