Judges 5:9-11
The Message
9 Lift your hearts high, O Israel,
with abandon, volunteering yourselves with the people—bless God!
* * *
10-11 You who ride on prize donkeys
comfortably mounted on blankets
And you who walk down the roads,
ponder, attend!
Gather at the town well
and listen to them sing,
Chanting the tale of God’s victories,
his victories accomplished in Israel.
Then the people of God
went down to the city gates.
Judges 5:9-11
New International Version
9 My heart is with Israel’s princes,
with the willing volunteers(A) among the people.
Praise the Lord!
10 “You who ride on white donkeys,(B)
sitting on your saddle blankets,
and you who walk along the road,
consider 11 the voice of the singers[a] at the watering places.
They recite the victories(C) of the Lord,
the victories of his villagers in Israel.
“Then the people of the Lord
went down to the city gates.(D)
