8. They chose new gods;Then there was war in the gates;Not a shield or spear was seen among forty thousand in Israel.
9. My heart is with the rulers of IsraelWho offered themselves willingly with the people.Bless the Lord!
10. “Speak, you who ride on white donkeys,Who sit in judges’ attire,And who walk along the road.
11. Far from the noise of the archers, among the watering places,There they shall recount the righteous acts of the Lord,The righteous acts for His villagers in Israel;Then the people of the Lord shall go down to the gates.
12. “Awake, awake, Deborah!Awake, awake, sing a song!Arise, Barak, and lead your captives away,O son of Abinoam!
