Judges 5:28-30
1599 Geneva Bible
28 The mother of Sisera looked out at a window, and cried through the lattice, Why is his chariot so long a coming? why tarry the [a]wheels of his chariots?
29 Her wise ladies answered her, Yea. [b]She answered herself with her own words,
30 Have they not gotten, and they divide the spoil? every man hath a maid or two. Sisera hath a prey of diverse colored garments, a prey of sundry colors made of needle work: of diverse colors of needle work on both sides, [c]for the chief of the spoil.

Judges 5:28-30
New International Version
28 “Through the window(A) peered Sisera’s mother;
behind the lattice she cried out,(B)
‘Why is his chariot so long in coming?
Why is the clatter of his chariots delayed?’
29 The wisest of her ladies answer her;
indeed, she keeps saying to herself,
30 ‘Are they not finding and dividing the spoils:(C)
a woman or two for each man,
colorful garments as plunder for Sisera,
colorful garments embroidered,
highly embroidered garments(D) for my neck—
all this as plunder?(E)’
