Judges 5:15-17

The Voice

¹⁵ The chiefs of Issachar came with Deborah;
    Issachar was faithful to Barak,
And they rushed into the valley, close at his heels.
    And the clans of Reuben wondered in their heart,
¹⁶ “Why did you remain idle and aloof in the sheepfolds?
    To hear whistling for the flocks?”
And the clans of Reuben wondered in their heart,
¹⁷ “Why did those of Gilead remain beyond the Jordan?
    Why did the people of Dan stay with their ships?
“Why did the people of Asher stay on the coast,
    settling down where they landed?”
