4Yahweh, when you went out from Seir, when you marched from Edom, the earth shook, and the skies also trembled; also the clouds poured down water.
5The mountains quaked before the face of Yahweh; even Mount Sinai quaked before the face of Yahweh, the God of Israel.
6In the days of Shamgar (son of Anath), in the days of Jael, the main roads were abandoned, and those who walked only used the winding paths.
7There were few rural people in Israel, until I, Deborah, arose—arose as a mother in Israel!
8When they chose new gods, there was fighting at the city gates and yet there were no shields or spears seen among forty thousand in Israel.
9My heart goes out to the commanders of Israel, along with the people who gladly volunteered— we bless Yahweh for them!
10Think about this—you who ride on white donkeys sitting on rugs for saddles, and you who walk along the road.
11Hear the voices of those who sing at the watering places. There they tell again of Yahweh's righteous deeds, and the righteous actions of his warriors in Israel. Then the people of Yahweh went down to the city gates.
12Awake, awake, Deborah! Awake, awake, sing a song! Get up, Barak, and capture your prisoners, you son of Abinoam.
13Then the survivors came down to the nobles; the people of Yahweh came down to me with the warriors.

15My princes in Issachar were with Deborah; and Issachar was with Barak rushing after him into the valley under his command. Among the clans of Reuben there were great searchings of heart.
16Why did you sit between the fireplaces, listening to the shepherds playing their pipes for their flocks? As for the clans of Reuben there were great searchings of heart.
17Gilead stayed on the other side of the Jordan; and Dan, why did he wander about on ships? Asher remained on the coast and lived close to his harbors.
