28 ¶»Miraba por la ventana y se lamentaba
La madre de Sísara, por entre la celosía[a]:
“¿Por qué se tarda en venir su carro?
¿Por qué se retrasa el trotar[b] de sus carros?”.
29 -»Sus sabias princesas le respondían,
Aun a sí misma ella repite sus palabras:
30 “¿Acaso no han hallado el botín(A) y se lo están repartiendo?
¿Una doncella, dos doncellas para cada guerrero.
Para Sísara un botín de tela de colores,
Un botín de tela de colores bordada,
Tela de colores de doble bordadura en el cuello del victorioso[c]?”.

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)

28 The mother of Sisera looked out at a window, and cried through the lattice, Why is his chariot so long in coming? why tarry the wheels of his chariots?

29 Her wise ladies answered her, yea, she returned answer to herself,

30 Have they not sped? have they not divided the prey; to every man a damsel or two; to Sisera a prey of divers colours, a prey of divers colours of needlework, of divers colours of needlework on both sides, meet for the necks of them that take the spoil?

    the mother of Sisera wailed through (B)the lattice:
‘Why is his chariot so long in coming?
    Why tarry the hoofbeats of his chariots?’

spoil of dyed materials for Sisera,
    spoil of dyed materials embroidered,
    two pieces of dyed work embroidered for the neck as spoil?’
