Jdg 5:2For that the leaders took the lead in Yisra'el, For that the people offered themselves willingly, Bless you the LORD.

Jdg 5:3

Jdg 5:3Hear, you kings; give ear, you princes; I, even I, will sing to the LORD; I will sing praise to the LORD, the God of Yisra'el.

Jdg 5:11

Jdg 5:11Far from the noise of archers, in the places of drawing water, There shall they rehearse the righteous acts of the LORD, Even the righteous acts of his rule in Yisra'el. Then the people of the LORD went down to the gates.

Jdg 5:12

Jdg 5:12Awake, awake, Devorah; Awake, awake, utter a song: Arise, Barak, and lead away your captives, you son of Avino`am.

Jdg 5:13Then came down a remnant of the nobles and the people; The LORD came down for me against the mighty.

Jdg 5:14

Jdg 5:14Out of Efrayim came down they whose root is in `Amalek; After you, Binyamin, among your peoples; Out of Makhir came down governors, Out of Zevulun those who handle the marshal's staff.

Jdg 5:15

Jdg 5:15The princes of Yissakhar were with Devorah; As was Yissakhar, so was Barak; Into the valley they rushed forth at his feet. By the watercourses of Re'uven There were great resolves of heart.

Jdg 5:30

Jdg 5:30Have they not found, have they not divided the spoil? A lady, two ladies to every man; To Sisera a spoil of dyed garments, A spoil of dyed garments embroidered, Of dyed garments embroidered on both sides, on the necks of the spoil?
