4 Lord, when You came from Seir, when You marched from the fields of Edom,the earth trembled, the heavens poured rain,and the clouds poured water.
5 The mountains melted before the Lord,even Sinai before the Lord, the God of Israel.
6 In the days of Shamgar son of Anath,in the days of Jael, the main ways were desertedbecause travelers kept to the side roads.
7 Villages were deserted, they were deserted in Israel,until I, Deborah, arose,a mother in Israel.
8 Israel chose new gods,then war was in the gates.Not a shield or spear was seenamong 40,000 in Israel.
9 My heart is with the leaders of Israel,with the volunteers of the people.Praise the Lord!
10 You who ride on white donkeys,who sit on saddle blankets,and who travel on the road, give praise!
