6 In the days of Shamgar, the son of Anath, in the days of Jael, the paths were quiet. And whoever entered by them, walked along rough byways.
7 The strong men ceased, and they rested in Israel, until Deborah rose up, until a mother rose up in Israel.
8 The Lord chose new wars, and he himself overturned the gates of the enemies. A shield with a spear was not seen among the forty thousand of Israel.
9 My heart loves the leaders of Israel. All you who, of your own free will, offered yourselves during a crisis, bless the Lord.
10 You who ride upon donkeys laboring, and you who sit in judgment, and you who walk along the way, speak out.
