9 Do to them as to the Midianites; as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the valley of Kishon; Do to them as you did to Midian, as to Sisera and Jabin at the river Kishon, Do to them as you did to Midian, as you did to Sisera and Jabin at the river Kishon,
10 Which perished at Endor; they became as manure for the earth. who were destroyed at En-dor, who became dung for the ground. who perished at Endor and became like dung on the ground.
11 Destroy their nobles like Oreb and like Zeeb; yea, all their princes as Zebah and as Zalmunna; Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb, all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna, Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb, all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna,
12 For they said, Let us inherit for ourselves the city of God. who said, “Let us take possession for ourselves of the pastures of God.” who said, “Let us take possession of the pasturelands of God.”

18 That men may know that thou, whose name alone is the LORD, art the most high over all the earth. that they may know that you alone, whose name is the LORD, are the Most High over all the earth. Let them know that you, whose name is the LORD— that you alone are the Most High over all the earth.
