Judges 5:13-21

13Then a remnant of nobles came down. Adonai’s people came down to me with the mighty ones.

14Those with root in Amalek are from Ephraim, following you, Benjamin, with your peoples. From Machir came down rulers, and from Zebulun wielding the marshal’s staff.

15Issachar’s chiefs were with Deborah. Issachar was with Barak. Into the valley they rushed at his heels. Among the divisions of Reuben there were great resolves of heart.

16Why did you stay in the sheepfolds— to hear the piping for the flocks? Among the clans of Reuben there was much searching of heart.

17Gilead stayed beyond the Jordan, and Dan, why did he stay by the ships? Asher sat at the seacoast, dwelling by its docks.

18Zebulun is a people who jeopardized their lives to death, and Naphtali also, on the heights of the battlefield.

19The kings came, they fought, then the kings of Canaan fought, at Taanach, by the waters of Megiddo, but they took no spoil of silver.

20From heaven, the stars fought, in their courses they fought Sisera.

21The Kishon torrent swept them away— that ancient torrent, the torrent Kishon! O my soul, march on with strength!
