Judges 5:1-11 Young's Literal Translation Of The Holy Bible (YLT98)

1. And Deborah singeth--also Barak son of Abinoam--on that day, saying: --

2. `For freeing freemen in Israel, For a people willingly offering themselves Bless ye Jehovah.

3. Hear, ye kings; give ear, ye princes, I, to Jehovah, I--I do sing, I sing praise to Jehovah, God of Israel.

4. Jehovah, in Thy going forth out of Seir, In Thy stepping out of the field of Edom, Earth trembled, also the heavens dropped, Also thick clouds dropped water.

5. Hills flowed from the face of Jehovah, This one--Sinai--From the face of Jehovah, God of Israel.

6. In the days of Shamgar son of Anath--In the days of Jael--The ways have ceased, And those going in the paths go [in] crooked ways.

7. Villages ceased in Israel--they ceased, Till that I arose--Deborah, That I arose, a mother in Israel.

8. He chooseth new gods, Then war [is] at the gates! A shield is not seen--and a spear Among forty thousand in Israel.

9. My heart [is] to the lawgivers of Israel, Who are offering themselves willingly among the people, Bless ye Jehovah!

10. Riders on white asses--Sitters on a long robe--And walkers by the way--meditate!

11. By the voice of shouters Between the places of drawing water, There they give out righteous acts of Jehovah, Righteous acts of His villages in Israel, Then ruled in the gates have the people of Jehovah.
