Dommerne 5,2

Praise and worshipServing others

1 Den dagen sang Deborah og Barak, Abinoams sønn, og sa:

“Når ledere står fram i Israel,
når folket villig tilbyr seg,
pris Herren!

3 “Hør, dere konger! Lytt, dere herskere!
Jeg, ja jeg, vil synge for Herren;
Jeg vil synge lovsang til Herren, Israels Gud.

4 “Herre, da du dro ut fra Seir,
da du marsjerte fra Edoms mark,
skalv jorden, himlene strømmet,
skyene strømmet ned vann.
