And why did Dan remain1 on ships?
bAsher continued at the seashore,
And stayed by his inlets.
Naphtali also, on the heights of the battlefield.
Then the kings of Canaan fought
In aTaanach, by the waters of Megiddo;
They took no spoils of silver.
That ancient torrent, the torrent of Kishon.
O my soul, march on in strength!
‘Curse its inhabitants bitterly,
Because they did not come to the help of the Lord,
To the help of the Lord against the mighty.’
| << Judges 5:18 | Judges 5:20 >> |
