Judges 4:2-6

2So the Lord sold them into the hand of 1Jabin king of Canaan, who reigned in Hazor; and the commander of his army was Sisera, who lived in 2Harosheth-hagoyim. 3The sons of Israel cried out to the Lord; for he had nine hundred 3iron chariots, and he oppressed the sons of Israel severely for twenty years.

4Now Deborah, a 4prophetess, the wife of Lappidoth, was judging Israel at that time. 5She used to 5sit under the 6palm tree of Deborah between Ramah and Bethel in the hill country of Ephraim; and the sons of Israel went up to her for judgment. 6Now she sent word and summoned 7Barak the son of Abinoam from Kedesh-naphtali, and said to him, “8The Lord, the God of Israel, has indeed commanded, ‘Go and march to Mount Tabor, and take with you ten thousand men from the sons of Naphtali and from the sons of Zebulun.
