Judges 5:7-9

Judges 5:7-9
International Standard Version
7 Rural populations plummeted[a] in Israel;
until I, Deborah, arose;
until I—an Israeli mother—arose.
8 New gods were chosen,
then war came to the city[b] gates,
but there wasn’t a shield or spear to be seen
among 40,000 soldiers[c] of Israel.
9 My heart is for the commanders of Israel,
to those who work willingly among the people.
Bless the Lord!
