Why didst thou stray among the sheep-folds
To hear the bleatings of the flocks?
For the wadis of Reuben great were the searchings of heart.
Gilead abode beyond the Jordan;
And Dan, why does he sojourn in ships?
Asher stayed on the sea-shore,
And abides in his havens.
Zebulon is a people that has jeopardied its life unto the death,
And Issachar also on the heights of the plain.
Kings came and fought,
