Judges 5:9 (WEB)
Context Reading
7The rulers ceased in Israel.They ceased until I, Deborah, arose;Until I arose a mother in Israel. 8They chose new gods.Then war was in the gates.Was there a shield or spear seen among forty thousand in Israel? 9My heart is toward the governors of Israel,who offered themselves willingly among the people.Bless Yahweh! 10“Speak, you who ride on white donkeys,you who sit on rich carpets,and you who walk by the way. 11Far from the noise of archers, in the places of drawing water,there they will rehearse Yahweh’s righteous acts,the righteous acts of his rule in Israel.“Then Yahweh’s people went down to the gates.
