Judges 5:8-10

Revised Standard Version

⁸When new gods were chosen,
    then war was in the gates.
Was shield or spear to be seen
    among forty thousand in Israel?
⁹My heart goes out to the commanders of Israel
    who offered themselves willingly among the people.
    Bless the Lord.

¹⁰“Tell of it, you who ride on tawny asses,
you who sit on rich carpets^[a]
and you who walk by the way.
