Judges 5:7-9

Christian Standard Bible

⁷ Villages were deserted,^[a]
they were deserted in Israel,
until I,^[b] Deborah, arose,
a mother in Israel.
⁸ Israel chose new gods,
then there was war in the city gates.
Not a shield or spear was seen
among forty thousand in Israel.
⁹ My heart is with the leaders of Israel,
with the volunteers of the people.
Blessed be the Lord!
