11 For the noise of the archers appeased in the places where water is drawn, there shall they rehearse the righteousness of the Lord, his righteousness of his towns in Israel, then did the people of the lord go down to the gates.
11 For the noyse of the archers appaised in the places wher water is drawen, there shall they reherse the righteousnes of the Lorde, hys righteousnes of his townes in Israell, thē did the people of the lord go downe to the gates.
When she had now praised God, because he had restored the common high ways free unto the Hebrews, she addeth now an other benefit which he had bestowed on them,1 namely in that they might with out fear draw water, which before was in a manner wholly letted them. This thing undoubtedly, although in other places it seemeth to be of no great value, yet in Syria where is wonderful great scarcity of water, it ought to be counted for an excellent gift. The wells or fountains which were without the cities by the streets and high ways, could stand the Jews in no stead, by reason of the Canaanites which kept away all things. For the horsemen which were archers, hid them selves privily near such waters, and assailed those which came forth to draw water there. Many of them they led away captives, and with their noise and cry, they feared away in a manner all from drawing of water. Ye have now escaped (saith Deborah) the horrible and barbarous noises and cries of horsemen, which were archers used to cry with an horrible voice when they assail their enemies, Jeremiah in the .4. chap. testifieth. And the whole city (saith he) fled away at the cry of the horsemen, which they made whilst they bended their bows.
