Judges 5:14-16
1599 Geneva Bible
14 Of Ephraim [a]their root arose against Amalek: and after thee Benjamin shall fight against thy people, O Amalek, of Machir came rulers, and of Zebulun, they that handle the pen of the [b]writer.
15 And the princes of Issachar were with Deborah, and [c]Issachar, and also Barak: he was set on his feet in the valley: for the divisions of Reuben were great [d]thoughts of heart.
16 Why abodest thou among the sheepfolds, to hear the bleatings of the flocks? for the divisions of Reuben were great thoughts of heart.
