Judges 4:6-15

6Now she sentH7971 and summonedH7121 1BarakH1301 the sonH1121 of AbinoamH42 from Kedesh-naphtaliH6943H5321, and saidH559 to him, “2BeholdH3808, 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 3manyH1995 troops to the riverH5158 KishonH7028, and 4I 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, 5for the LordH3068 will sellH4376 SiseraH5516 into the handsH3027 of a womanH802.” Then DeborahH1683 aroseH6965 and wentH1980 with BarakH1301 to KedeshH6943. 10BarakH1301 calledH2199 6ZebulunH2074 and NaphtaliH5321 togetherH2199 to KedeshH6943, and tenH6235 thousandH505 menH376 wentH5927 up 78with him; DeborahH1683 also wentH5927 up with him.

11Now HeberH2268 9the KeniteH7017 had separatedH6504 himself from the KenitesH7014, from the sonsH1121 of HobabH2246 the father-in-lawH2860 of MosesH4872, and had pitchedH5186 his tentH168 as farH5704 away as the 10oakH436 in 11ZaanannimH6815, whichH834 is nearH854 KedeshH6943.

12Then they toldH5046 SiseraH5516 that BarakH1301 the sonH1121 of AbinoamH42 had goneH5927 up to MountH2022 TaborH8396. 13SiseraH5516 calledH2199 togetherH2199 allH3605 his chariotsH7393, 12nineH8672 hundredH3967 ironH1270 chariotsH7393, and allH3605 the peopleH5971 whoH834 were with him, from 13Harosheth-hagoyimH2800H1471 to the riverH5158 KishonH7028. 14DeborahH1683 saidH559 to BarakH1301, “AriseH6965! For thisH2088 is the dayH3117 in whichH834 the LordH3068 has givenH5414 SiseraH5516 into your handsH3027; 14beholdH3808, 15the LordH3068 has goneH3318 out beforeH6440 you.” So BarakH1301 wentH3381 downH3381 from MountH2022 TaborH8396 with tenH6235 thousandH505 menH376 followingH310 him. 1516The LordH3068 17routedH2000 SiseraH5516 and allH3605 his chariotsH7393 and allH3605 his armyH4264 with the edgeH6310 of the swordH2719 beforeH6440 BarakH1301; and SiseraH5516 alightedH3381 from his chariotH4818 and fledH5127 away on footH7272.
