## Judges 5:3-5 in Context (Verses 1–8 KJV)
 
 [1 ](/kjv/judges/5/1) Then sang Deborah and Barak the son of Abinoam on that day, saying,
 
 [2 ](/kjv/judges/5/2) Praise ye the LORD for the avenging of Israel, when the people willingly offered themselves.
 
 [3 ](/kjv/judges/5/3) Hear, O ye kings; give ear, O ye princes; I, *even* I, will sing unto the LORD; I will sing *praise* to the LORD God of Israel.
 
 [4 ](/kjv/judges/5/4) LORD, when thou wentest out of Seir, when thou marchedst out of the field of Edom, the earth trembled, and the heavens dropped, the clouds also dropped water.
 
 [5 ](/kjv/judges/5/5) The mountains melted from before the LORD, *even* that Sinai from before the LORD God of Israel.*
 
 [6 ](/kjv/judges/5/6) In the days of Shamgar the son of Anath, in the days of Jael, the highways were unoccupied, and the travellers walked through byways.**
 
 [7 ](/kjv/judges/5/7) *The inhabitants of* the villages ceased, they ceased in Israel, until that I Deborah arose, that I arose a mother in Israel.
 
 [8 ](/kjv/judges/5/8) They chose new gods; then *was* war in the gates: was there a shield or spear seen among forty thousand in Israel?
 
[Judges 4](/kjv/judges/4) [Judges 6](/kjv/judges/6)
