Judges 5:6 Context
4Lord, when thou wentest out of Seir, when thou marchedst out of the field of Edom, the earth trembled, and the heauens dropped, the clouds also dropped water. 5The mountaines melted from before the Lord, euen that Sinai, from before the Lord God of Israel. 6In the dayes of Shamgar the son of Anath, in the dayes of Iael, the high wayes were vnoccupied, and the traueilers walked thorow by-wayes. 7The inhabitants of the villages ceased, they ceased in Israel, vntill that I Deborah arose, that I arose a mother in Israel. 8They chose new gods; then was warre in the gates: was there a shield or speare seene among fourtie thousand in Israel?
