Judges 5:28-30
New American Standard Bible
28 “Out of the window she looked and wailed,
The mother of Sisera through the [a]lattice,
‘Why does his chariot delay in coming?
Why do the [b]hoofbeats of his chariots delay?’
29 Her wise princesses would answer her,
Indeed she repeats her words to herself,
30 ‘(A)Are they not finding, are they not dividing the spoils?
A concubine, two concubines for every warrior;
To Sisera a spoil of dyed cloth,
A spoil of dyed cloth embroidered,
Dyed cloth of double embroidery on the [c]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)’
