Judges 5
5:1And Deborah and Barak son of Abinoam sang in that day, and said,
5:2In the rule of chiefs in Israel, in resolve of people, bless the lord!
5:3Hear, O kings! Give ear, O satraps! I shall sing to the lord, and I shall strum to the God of Israel.
5:4O lord, in your exodus from Seir, in your departing from out of the field of Edom, the earth was shaken, and indeed the heaven was disturbed, and the clouds dripped water.
5:5Mountains shook from the face of the lord; this Sinai from the face of the lord God of Israel.
5:6In the days of Shamgar son of Anath, in the days of Jael, the ways failed, and they went by short cuts. They went by ways being turned aside.
5:7The ones dwelling in Israel failed, they failed until of which time Deborah rose up, that a mother rose up in Israel.
5:8They selected new gods, then cities of rulers waged war; spears appeared for protection of young women, even a spear -- forty thousand in Israel.
5:9My heart is with the things ordered to Israel. The mighty of the people -- you bless the lord!
5:10O ones mounting upon beasts of burden, upon covered royal chariots, sitting down upon a judgment seat, and going by the way -- utter!
5:11A sound of the men playing music in the midst of ones making merry. There they shall give righteousness to the lord. O righteousness grow in strength in Israel! Then shall go down into his cities the people of the lord.
5:12Awaken, awaken, O Deborah! Awaken, awaken! Speak with an ode! Rise up, O Barak! And take captive your captivity, O son of Abinoam!
5:13Then his strength was magnified. O lord abase to me the ones stronger than me! People Ephraim punished them in the valley. Your brother Benjamin among your peoples.
5:14Ephraim rooted them out among Amalek. After you, Benjamin, with your peoples. Of me, Machir, they came down searching out; and from Zebulun growing in strength in chiefdom of the narrative of a scribe.
5:15And the rulers were in Issachar with Deborah and Issachar; so Barak in the valley sent out his footmen in the divisions of Reuben -- in great restrictions of heart.
5:16Why with me did you settle between the sheepfolds to listen to whistlings arousing to go through for the ones of Reuben -- in great trackings out of heart?
5:17Gilead encamped on the other side of the Jordan. And Dan -- why does he sojourn in boats? Asher sojourns by the shore of seas, and at his breaches he will encamp.
5:18Zebulun -- a people berating their soul to death; and Naphtali was upon the heights of a field.
5:19Kings came and deployed; then the kings of Canaan waged war in Taanach, at the water of Megiddo; a desire for wealth of silver they did not have.
5:20From the heaven they deployed; the stars from their order deployed against Sisera.
5:21The rushing stream Kishon cast them out, the rushing stream of antiquity, the rushing stream Kishon; my mighty soul shall trample them.
5:22Then they were impeded, the heels of horses were hastened with diligence by his mighty ones.
5:23Curse Meroz! said the angel of the lord. With a curse, curse every one dwelling in it! for they came not to the help of the lord. The lord is a helper against warriors.
5:24May she be blessed of women -- Jael wife of Heber the Kenite; above the women in the tent may she be blessed.
5:25He asked her for water, and she gave milk to him in a pan; she drew near butter of strong ones.
5:26She stretched out her hand for a peg, and her right for the hammer of a laborer; and she struck Sisera with a hammer; she nailed his head; yes, she struck, she nailed his temple.
5:27In between her feet bowing he fell; he slept between her feet; he bent; he fell; in which he bent there he fell miserably.
5:28Through the window the mother of Sisera looked and studied -- through the latticed window. Why was his chariot late to arrive? Why did the track of his chariots pass time?
5:29Her leading wise ladies answered to her, and she returned her words to herself.
5:30Shall they not find him dividing the spoils? Befriending friends to a mighty head ruler. Spoils of dyed things for Sisera, spoils of dyed embroidery dipped. Dyed embroidered works, spoils for his neck.
5:31Thus may all your enemies be destroyed, O lord. And the ones loving him be as the rising of the sun in his power. And the land was quiet forty years.
