5:1 Then sang Deborah and Barak the son of Abinoam on that day, saying,
5:2 Praise ye the LORD for the avenging of Israel, when the people willingly offered themselves.
5:3 Hear, O ye kings; give ear, O ye princes; I, even I, will sing unto the LORD; I will sing praise to the LORD God of Israel.
5:4 LORD, when thou wentest out of Seir, when thou marchedst out of the field of Edom, the earth trembled, and the heavens dropped, the clouds also dropped water.
5:5 The mountains melted from before the LORD, even that Sinai from before the LORD God of Israel.
5:6 In the days of Shamgar the son of Anath, in the days of Jael, the highways were unoccupied, and the travellers walked through byways.
5:7 The inhabitants of the villages ceased, they ceased in Israel, until that I Deborah arose, that I arose a mother in Israel.
5:8 They chose new gods; then was war in the gates: was there a shield or spear seen among forty thousand in Israel?
5:9 My heart is toward the governors of Israel, that offered themselves willingly among the people. Bless ye the LORD.
5:10 Speak, ye that ride on white asses, ye that sit in judgment, and walk by the way.
