29 She and her wisest women
    gave the same answer:
30 “Sisera and his troops
are finding treasures
    to bring back—
a woman, or maybe two,
    for each man,
and beautiful dresses
    for those women to wear.”[a]

    will die like Sisera.
But let everyone who loves you
shine brightly like the sun
    at dawn.
