10 Tell of[a] it, you that ride on white donkeys,
    sitting on saddles,
    and you that must walk wherever you go.
11 Listen! The noisy crowds around the wells
    are telling of the Lord's victories,
    the victories of Israel's people!

    Lead on! Sing a song! Lead on!
Forward, Barak son of Abinoam,
    lead your captives away!
