Judges 5:9-11
Living Bible
9 How I rejoice
In the leaders of Israel
Who offered themselves so willingly!
Praise the Lord!
10 Let all Israel, rich and poor,
Join in his praises—
Those who ride on white donkeys
And sit on rich carpets,
And those who are poor and must walk.
11 The village musicians
Gather at the village well
To sing of the triumphs of the Lord.
Again and again they sing the ballad
Of how the Lord saved Israel
With an army of peasants!
The people of the Lord
Marched through the 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)
