Judges 5:16-18
New King James Version
16 Why did you sit among the sheepfolds,
To hear the pipings for the flocks?
The divisions of Reuben have great searchings of heart.
17 (A)Gilead stayed beyond the Jordan,
And why did Dan remain [a]on ships?
(B)Asher continued at the seashore,
And stayed by his inlets.
18 (C)Zebulun is a people who jeopardized their lives to the point of death,
Naphtali also, on the heights of the battlefield.
