Judges 5:7-9
Evangelical Heritage Version
7 Life in the unwalled towns came to a halt.
In Israel, life came to a halt until I, Deborah, arose,
until I arose as a mother in Israel.
8 When Israel chose new gods,[a] there was war at the gates.
Neither shield nor spear was seen among the forty thousand in Israel.
9 My heart goes out to the commanders of Israel,
to those who freely offer themselves among the people. Bless the Lord!
