Judges 5:19-23

19Kings came, they fought; the kings of Canaan fought, at Taanach by the waters of Megiddo, but they took no silver as plunder.

20From the sky the stars fought, from their paths in the heavens they fought against Sisera.

21The Kishon River carried them off; the river confronted them – the Kishon River. Step on the necks of the strong!

22The horses’ hooves pounded the ground; the stallions galloped madly.

23‘Call judgment down on Meroz,’ says the Lord’s angelic messenger; ‘Be sure to call judgment down on those who live there, because they did not come to help in the Lord’s battle, to help in the Lord’s battle against the warriors.’
