Judges 4:1-9

1Then 1the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 againH3254 didH6213 evilH7451 in the sightH5869 of the LordH3068, after EhudH164 diedH4191. 2And the LordH3068 soldH4376 them into the handH3027 of 2JabinH2985 kingH4428 of CanaanH3667, whoH834 reignedH4427 in HazorH2674; and the commanderH8269 of his armyH6635 was SiseraH5516, whoH834 livedH3427 in 3Harosheth-hagoyimH2800H1471. 3The sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 criedH6817 to the LordH3068; for he had nineH8672 hundredH3967 4ironH1270 chariotsH7393, and he oppressedH3905 the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 severelyH2394 for twentyH6242 yearsH8141.

4Now DeborahH1683, a 5prophetessH5031, the wifeH802 of LappidothH3941, was judgingH8199 IsraelH3478 at that timeH6256. 5She used to 6sitH3427 underH8478 the 7palmH8560 treeH8560 of DeborahH1683 betweenH996 RamahH7414 and BethelH1008 in the hillH2022 countryH2022 of EphraimH669; and the sonsH1121 of IsraelH3478 cameH5927 up to her for judgmentH4941. 6Now she sentH7971 and summonedH7121 8BarakH1301 the sonH1121 of AbinoamH42 from Kedesh-naphtaliH6943H5321, and saidH559 to him, “9BeholdH3808, the LordH3068, the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, has commandedH6680, ‘GoH1980 and marchH4900 to MountH2022 TaborH8396, and takeH3947 with you tenH6235 thousandH505 menH376 from the sonsH1121 of NaphtaliH5321 and from the sonsH1121 of ZebulunH2074. 7I will drawH4900 out to you SiseraH5516, the commanderH8269 of Jabin’sH2985 armyH6635, with his chariotsH7393 and his 10manyH1995 troops to the riverH5158 KishonH7028, and 11I will giveH5414 him into your handH3027.’” 8Then BarakH1301 saidH559 to her, “IfH518 you will goH1980 with me, then I will goH1980; but ifH518 you will not goH1980 with me, I will not goH1980.” 9She saidH559, “I will surelyH1980 goH1980 with you; neverthelessH657H3588, the honorH8597 shall not be yours on the journeyH1870 that you are about to takeH1980, 12for the LordH3068 will sellH4376 SiseraH5516 into the handsH3027 of a womanH802.” Then DeborahH1683 aroseH6965 and wentH1980 with BarakH1301 to KedeshH6943.
