And he went from thence, against the inhabitants of Debir, - now, the name of Debir, formerly, was Kiriath-sepher.

And, Deborah, a woman who was a prophetess, wife of Lapidoth, she, was judging Israel, at that time:

she used to sit, therefore, under the palm-tree of Deborah, between Ramah and Bethel, in the hill country of Ephraim, - and the sons of Israel came up to her, for justice.

And she sent and called for Barak son of Abinoam, out of Kadesh-naphtali, - and said unto him - Hath not Yahweh God of Israel, commanded, - Come and draw towards Mount Tabor, and bring with thee - ten thousand men, of the sons of Naphtali, and of the sons of Zebulun;

And she said - I will, go, with thee; only, it shall not be, thine own honour, that shall arise from the journey which thou art about to take, for, into the hand of a woman, will Yahweh sell Sisera. So Deborah arose, and went with Barak, towards Kadesh.

And Barak called together Zebulun and Naphtali, towards Kadesh, and there went up at his feet - ten thousand men, - and Deborah, went up with him.

And they told Sisera that Barak, son of Abinoam, had gone up to Mount Tabor.

Then said Deborah unto Barak - Up! for, this, is the day on which Yahweh hath delivered Sisera into thy hand, hath not, Yahweh, gone forth before thee? So Barak went down from Mount Tabor, with ten thousand men after him.

Then sang Deborah, and Barak, son of Abinoam, - on that day, saying: -

There was a failure of rulers, in Israel, a failure, - until I arose, a Deborah, arose, a mother in Israel: -

Awake! awake! Deborah, Awake! awake! utter words of song, - Arise! Barak, and bind fast thy captives, O son of Abinoam!

And, my princes in Issachar, were with Deborah, yea, Issachar, was the support of Barak, Into the vale rushed they forth at his feet. Among the divisions of Reuben, great were the resolves of the heart:

Then said he unto Zebah and unto Zalmunna, What manner of men were they, whom ye slew at Tabor? And they said, As thou art, so were they, each one, as handsome as the sons of a king.
