Judges 5:28-30

The Voice

²⁸ The mother of Sisera waited for him,
    watching through the lattice of the window.
“Why is his chariot so long in returning?” she wondered.
    “Where are the hoofbeats of his horses?”
²⁹ Her wisest ladies in waiting have answers—
    in fact, she herself thinks she knows the reason.
³⁰ “Aren’t they still dividing the spoils of a successful battle?
    A girl or two given to every man;
Spoils of beautiful dyed cloth for Sisera,
    spoils of dyed cloth, beautifully embroidered.
Indeed two pieces of beautiful embroidered cloth for my neck.”
