“The mountains quaked at the presence of the Lord,
Yes, this Sinai, at the presence of the Lord, the God of Israel.


“In the days of Shamgar the son of Anath,
In the days of Jael, the highways were deserted,
And travelers went by roundabout ways.

“The villagers ceased to be; they ceased in Israel
Until I, Deborah, arose,
Until I arose, a mother in Israel.

The mountains quaked(A) before the Lord, the One of Sinai,
    before the Lord, the God of Israel.

“In the days of Shamgar son of Anath,(B)
    in the days of Jael,(C) the highways(D) were abandoned;
    travelers took to winding paths.(E)
Villagers in Israel would not fight;
    they held back until I, Deborah,(F) arose,
    until I arose, a mother in Israel.
