2 Kaksakin LEUM GOD! Mwet Israel elos akola na, Ac sifacna eisalosyang in wi mweun.
“For freeing leaders in Israel, For a people willingly offering themselves, Bless YHWH.

YHWH, in Your going forth out of Seir, In Your stepping out of the field of Edom, The earth trembled and the heavens dropped, And thick clouds dropped water.

Hills flowed from the face of YHWH, This one—Sinai—From the face of YHWH, God of Israel.

In the days of Shamgar son of Anath—In the days of Jael—The ways have ceased, And those going in the paths go [in] crooked ways.

By the voice of shouters Between the places of drawing water, There they give out righteous acts of YHWH, Righteous acts of His villages in Israel, Then the people of YHWH have gone down to the gates.

She has looked out through the window—Indeed, she cries out—the mother of Sisera, Through the lattice: Why is his chariot delaying to come? Why have the steps of his chariot tarried?
