7 She took off her widow’s clothingto lift up the oppressed in Israel.She put perfume on her face,
8 tied a headband around her hair,and put on a linen gown to trick him.
9 Her sandal captured his eyes;her beauty captured his heart,and the sword sliced through his neck.
10 The Persians trembled at her daring,and the Medes were troubledby her boldness.
11 Then my humbled ones shouted loudly;my weak ones cried out,they lifted up their voices,and the enemies were overthrown.
12 Sons of mere girls stabbed themand wounded themlike the children of deserters.They perished beforemy Lord’s army.
13 I will sing to my God a new song.Lord, you are great and glorious, marvelous in strengthnever to be outdone.
