“They that are delivered from the noise of archers in the places of drawing water, there shall they rehearse the righteous acts of the Lord, even the righteous acts toward the inhabitants of his villages in Israel: then shall the people of the Lord go down to the gates.”
To the sound of musicians at the watering places, let them recount the righteous acts of the LORD, the righteous acts for his peasantry in Israel. Then the people of the LORD marched down to the gates. — The scene of musicians at watering places suggests public celebration and ceremonial commemoration of the victory. The phrase 'righteous acts of the LORD' (צְדָקוֹת יְהוָה) indicates that the victory fulfilled God's covenant justice, demonstrating divine righteousness in delivering Israel from oppression.
