Judges 5:16

16 Why do you remain among the sheepfolds, ^{▼▼ The meaning of the Hebrew word מִשְׁפְּתַיִם (mishp^etayim) is uncertain. Some understand the word to mean “campfires.”}
listening to the shepherds playing their pipes ^{▼▼ Or “whistling.”} for their flocks? ^{▼▼ Heb “listening to the pipe playing for the flocks.”}
