Judges 5:28-30
Lexham English Bible
28 “Through the window she looked down;
the mother of Sisera cried out through the lattice,
‘Why is his chariot delayed in coming?
Why do the hoof beats[a] of his chariot tarry?’
29 The wisest of her ladies answer her;
she also answers the question herself:
30 ‘Are they not finding and dividing the plunder?
A bedmate or two bedmates for every man;[b]
colorful garments for Sisera,
plunder of colorful garments,[c]
beautifully finished colorful garments,
on the neck of the plunderer?’

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)’
