Deborah and Barak Sing for the
After the battle was over that day, Deborah and Barak sang this song:
Then sang Deborah and Barak the son of Abinoam on that day, saying,
2 We praise you, Lord! Our soldiers volunteered, ready to follow you. Praise ye the Lord for the avenging of Israel, when the people willingly offered themselves.
3 Listen, kings and rulers, while I sing for the Lord, the God of Israel. Hear, O ye kings; give ear, O ye princes; I, even I, will sing unto the Lord; I will sing praise to the Lord God of Israel.
4 Our Lord, God of Israel, when you came from Seir, where the Edomites live, Lord, when thou wentest out of Seir, when thou marchedst out of the field of Edom, the earth trembled, and the heavens dropped, the clouds also dropped water.
5 rain poured from the sky, the earth trembled, and mountains shook. The mountains melted from before the Lord, even that Sinai from before the Lord God of Israel.
6 In the time of Shamgar son of Anath, and now again in Jael's time, roads were too dangerous for caravans. Travelers had to take the back roads, In the days of Shamgar the son of Anath, in the days of Jael, the highways were unoccupied, and the travellers walked through byways.
7 and villagers couldn't work in their fields. Then Deborah took command, protecting Israel as a mother protects her children. The inhabitants of the villages ceased, they ceased in Israel, until that I Deborah arose, that I arose a mother in Israel.
8 The Israelites worshiped other gods, and the gates of their towns were then attacked. But they had no shields or spears to fight with. They chose new gods; then was war in the gates: was there a shield or spear seen among forty thousand in Israel?
9 I praise you, Lord, and I am grateful for those leaders and soldiers who volunteered. My heart is toward the governors of Israel, that offered themselves willingly among the people. Bless ye the Lord.
10 Listen, everyone! Whether you ride a donkey with a padded saddle or have to walk. Speak, ye that ride on white asses, ye that sit in judgment, and walk by the way.
11 Even those who carry water to the animals will tell you, “The Lord has won victories, and so has Israel.” Then the Lord's people marched down to the town gates 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.
12 and said, “Deborah, let's go! Let's sing as we march. Barak, capture our enemies.” Awake, awake, Deborah: awake, awake, utter a song: arise, Barak, and lead thy captivity captive, thou son of Abinoam.
13 The Lord's people who were left joined with their leaders and fought at my side. Then he made him that remaineth have dominion over the nobles among the people: the Lord made me have dominion over the mighty.
14 Troops came from Ephraim, where Amalekites once lived. Others came from Benjamin; officers and leaders came from Machir and Zebulun. Out of Ephraim was there a root of them against Amalek; after thee, Benjamin, among thy people; out of Machir came down governors, and out of Zebulun they that handle the pen of the writer.
15 The rulers of Issachar came along with Deborah, and Issachar followed Barak into the valley. But the tribe of Reuben was no help at all! And the princes of Issachar were with Deborah; even Issachar, and also Barak: he was sent on foot into the valley. For the divisions of Reuben there were great thoughts of heart.
16 Reuben, why did you stay among your sheep pens? Was it to listen to shepherds whistling for their sheep? No one could figure out why Reuben wouldn't come. Why abodest thou among the sheepfolds, to hear the bleatings of the flocks? For the divisions of Reuben there were great searchings of heart.
17 The people of Gilead stayed across the Jordan. Why did the tribe of Dan remain on their ships and the tribe of Asher stay along the coast near the harbors? Gilead abode beyond Jordan: and why did Dan remain in ships? Asher continued on the sea shore, and abode in his breaches.
18 But soldiers of Zebulun and Naphtali risked their lives to attack the enemy. Zebulun and Naphtali were a people that jeoparded their lives unto the death in the high places of the field.
19 Canaanite kings fought us at Taanach by the stream near Megiddo— but they couldn't rob us of our silver. The kings came and fought, then fought the kings of Canaan in Taanach by the waters of Megiddo; they took no gain of money.
20 From their pathways in the sky the stars fought Sisera, They fought from heaven; the stars in their courses fought against Sisera.
21 and his soldiers were swept away by the ancient Kishon River. I will march on and be brave. The river of Kishon swept them away, that ancient river, the river Kishon. O my soul, thou hast trodden down strength.
22 Sisera's horses galloped off, their hoofs thundering in retreat. Then were the horsehoofs broken by the means of the pransings, the pransings of their mighty ones.
23 The Lord's angel said, “Put a curse on Meroz Town! Its people refused to help the Lord fight his powerful enemies.” Curse ye Meroz, said the angel of the Lord, curse ye bitterly the inhabitants thereof; because they came not to the help of the Lord, to the help of the Lord against the mighty.
24 But honor Jael, the wife of Heber from the Kenite clan. Give more honor to her than to any other woman who lives in tents. Yes, give more honor to her than to any other woman. Blessed above women shall Jael the wife of Heber the Kenite be, blessed shall she be above women in the tent.
25 Sisera asked for water, but Jael gave him milk— cream in a fancy cup. He asked water, and she gave him milk; she brought forth butter in a lordly dish.
26 She reached for a tent-peg and held a hammer in her right hand. And with a blow to the head, she crushed his skull. She put her hand to the nail, and her right hand to the workmen’s hammer; and with the hammer she smote Sisera, she smote off his head, when she had pierced and stricken through his temples.
27 Sisera sank to his knees and fell dead at her feet. At her feet he bowed, he fell, he lay down: at her feet he bowed, he fell: where he bowed, there he fell down dead.
28 Sisera's mother looked out through her window. “Why is he taking so long?” she asked. “Why haven't we heard his chariots coming?” The mother of Sisera looked out at a window, and cried through the lattice, Why is his chariot so long in coming? why tarry the wheels of his chariots?
29 She and her wisest women gave the same answer: Her wise ladies answered her, yea, she returned answer to herself,
30 “Sisera and his troops are finding treasures to bring back— a woman, or maybe two, for each man, and beautiful dresses for those women to wear.” Have they not sped? have they not divided the prey; to every man a damsel or two; to Sisera a prey of divers colours, a prey of divers colours of needlework, of divers colours of needlework on both sides, meet for the necks of them that take the spoil?
31 Our Lord, we pray that all your enemies will die like Sisera. But let everyone who loves you shine brightly like the sun at dawn. There was peace in Israel for about 40 years. So let all thine enemies perish, O Lord: but let them that love him be as the sun when he goeth forth in his might. And the land had rest forty years.
