Judges 5:15-17
Evangelical Heritage Version
15 The officers of Issachar are with Deborah.
Yes, Issachar sent support for Barak into the valley on foot.[a]
But in the divisions of Reuben there was much soul searching.[b]
16 Why did you linger among the sheepfolds
to listen to the whistling for the flocks?
Concerning the divisions in Reuben, there was much soul searching.
17 Gilead remained beyond the Jordan,
and Dan—why did he linger in ships?
Asher remained sitting on the seashore,
and upon its landing places he remained.
