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!
11 Let them tell the righteous acts of the Lord,the righteous deeds of His warriors in Israel,with the voices of the singers at the watering places. Then the Lord’s people went down to the gates.
12 “Awake! Awake, Deborah!Awake! Awake, sing a song!Arise, Barak,and take hold of your captives,son of Abinoam! ”
13 The survivors came down to the nobles; the Lord’s people came down to me with the warriors.
14 Those with their roots in Amalek came from Ephraim;Benjamin came with your people after you.The leaders came down from Machir, and those who carry a marshal’s staff came from Zebulun.
