Judges 4:1--5:31

And the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
again
<03254> (8686)
did
<06213> (8800)
evil
<07451>
in the sight
<05869>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
when Ehud
<0164>
was dead
<04191> (8804)_.
And the LORD
<03068>
sold
<04376> (8799)
them into the hand
<03027>
of Jabin
<02985>
king
<04428>
of Canaan
<03667>_,
that reigned
<04427> (8804)
in Hazor
<02674>_;
the captain
<08269>
of whose host
<06635>
[was] Sisera
<05516>_,
which dwelt
<03427> (8802)
in Harosheth
<02800>
of the Gentiles
<01471>_.
And the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
cried
<06817> (8799)
unto the LORD
<03068>_:
for he had nine
<08672>
hundred
<03967>
chariots
<07393>
of iron
<01270>_;
and twenty
<06242>
years
<08141>
he mightily
<02394>
oppressed
<03905> (8804)
the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_.
And Deborah
<01683>_,
a prophetess
<05031>_,
the wife
<0802>
of Lapidoth
<03941>_,
she judged
<08199> (8802)
Israel
<03478>
at that time
<06256>_.
And she dwelt
<03427> (8802)
under the palm tree
<08560>
of Deborah
<01683>
between Ramah
<07414>
and Bethel
<01008>
in mount
<02022>
Ephraim
<0669>_:
and the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
came up
<05927> (8799)
to her for judgment
<04941>_.
And she sent
<07971> (8799)
and called
<07121> (8799)
Barak
<01301>
the son
<01121>
of Abinoam
<042>
out of Kedeshnaphtali
<06943>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Hath not the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>
commanded
<06680> (8765)_,
[saying], Go
<03212> (8798)
and draw
<04900> (8804)
toward mount
<02022>
Tabor
<08396>_,
and take
<03947> (8804)
with thee ten
<06235>
thousand
<0505>
men
<0376>
of the children
<01121>
of Naphtali
<05321>
and of the children
<01121>
of Zebulun
<02074>_?
And I will draw
<04900> (8804)
unto thee to the river
<05158>
Kishon
<07028>
Sisera
<05516>_,
the captain
<08269>
of Jabin's
<02985>
army
<06635>_,
with his chariots
<07393>
and his multitude
<01995>_;
and I will deliver
<05414> (8804)
him into thine hand
<03027>_.
And Barak
<01301>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto her, If thou wilt go
<03212> (8799)
with me, then I will go
<01980> (8804)_:
but if thou wilt not go
<03212> (8799)
with me, [then] I will not go
<03212> (8799)_.
And she said
<0559> (8799)_,
I will surely
<01980> (8800)
go
<03212> (8799)
with thee: notwithstanding
<0657>
the journey
<01870>
that thou takest
<01980> (8802)
shall not be for thine honour
<08597>_;
for the LORD
<03068>
shall sell
<04376> (8799)
Sisera
<05516>
into the hand
<03027>
of a woman
<0802>_.
And Deborah
<01683>
arose
<06965> (8799)_,
and went
<03212> (8799)
with Barak
<01301>
to Kedesh
<06943>_.
And Barak
<01301>
called
<02199> (8686)
Zebulun
<02074>
and Naphtali
<05321>
to Kedesh
<06943>_;
and he went up
<05927> (8799)
with ten
<06235>
thousand
<0505>
men
<0376>
at his feet
<07272>_:
and Deborah
<01683>
went up
<05927> (8799)
with him.
Now Heber
<02268>
the Kenite
<07017>_,
[which was] of the children
<01121>
of Hobab
<02246>
the father in law
<02859> (8802)
of Moses
<04872>_,
had severed
<06504> (8737)
himself from the Kenites
<07017>_,
and pitched
<05186> (8799)
his tent
<0168>
unto the plain
<0436>
of Zaanaim
<06815>_,
which [is] by Kedesh
<06943>_.
And they shewed
<05046> (8686)
Sisera
<05516>
that Barak
<01301>
the son
<01121>
of Abinoam
<042>
was gone up
<05927> (8804)
to mount
<02022>
Tabor
<08396>_.
And Sisera
<05516>
gathered together
<02199> (8686)
all his chariots
<07393>_,
[even] nine
<08672>
hundred
<03967>
chariots
<07393>
of iron
<01270>_,
and all the people
<05971>
that [were] with him, from Harosheth
<02800>
of the Gentiles
<01471>
unto the river
<05158>
of Kishon
<07028>_.
{together: Heb. by cry, or, proclamation}
And Deborah
<01683>
said
<0559> (8799)
unto Barak
<01301>_,
Up
<06965> (8798)_;
for this [is] the day
<03117>
in which the LORD
<03068>
hath delivered
<05414> (8804)
Sisera
<05516>
into thine hand
<03027>_:
is not the LORD
<03068>
gone out
<03318> (8804)
before
<06440>
thee? So Barak
<01301>
went down
<03381> (8799)
from mount
<02022>
Tabor
<08396>_,
and ten
<06235>
thousand
<0505>
men
<0376>
after
<0310>
him.
And the LORD
<03068>
discomfited
<02000> (8799)
Sisera
<05516>_,
and all [his] chariots
<07393>_,
and all [his] host
<04264>_,
with the edge
<06310>
of the sword
<02719>
before
<06440>
Barak
<01301>_;
so that Sisera
<05516>
lighted down
<03381> (8799)
off [his] chariot
<04818>_,
and fled away
<05127> (8799)
on his feet
<07272>_.
But Barak
<01301>
pursued
<07291> (8804)
after
<0310>
the chariots
<07393>_,
and after the host
<04264>_,
unto Harosheth
<02800>
of the Gentiles
<01471>_:
and all the host
<04264>
of Sisera
<05516>
fell
<05307> (8799)
upon the edge
<06310>
of the sword
<02719>_;
[and] there was not a man
<0259>
left
<07604> (8738)_.
{a man: Heb. unto one}
Howbeit Sisera
<05516>
fled away
<05127> (8804)
on his feet
<07272>
to the tent
<0168>
of Jael
<03278>
the wife
<0802>
of Heber
<02268>
the Kenite
<07017>_:
for [there was] peace
<07965>
between Jabin
<02985>
the king
<04428>
of Hazor
<02674>
and the house
<01004>
of Heber
<02268>
the Kenite
<07017>_.
And Jael
<03278>
went out
<03318> (8799)
to meet
<07125> (8800)
Sisera
<05516>_,
and said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Turn in
<05493> (8798)_,
my lord
<0113>_,
turn in
<05493> (8798)
to me; fear
<03372> (8799)
not. And when he had turned in
<05493> (8799)
unto her into the tent
<0168>_,
she covered
<03680> (8762)
him with a mantle
<08063>_.
{mantle: or, rug, or, blanket}
And he said
<0559> (8799)
unto her, Give me, I pray thee, a little
<04592>
water
<04325>
to drink
<08248> (8685)_;
for I am thirsty
<06770> (8804)_.
And she opened
<06605> (8799)
a bottle
<04997>
of milk
<02461>_,
and gave him drink
<08248> (8686)_,
and covered
<03680> (8762)
him.
Again he said
<0559> (8799)
unto her, Stand in
<05975> (8798)
the door
<06607>
of the tent
<0168>_,
and it shall be, when any man
<0376>
doth come
<0935> (8799)
and enquire
<07592> (8804)
of thee, and say
<0559> (8804)_,
Is there
<03426> (0)
any man
<0376>
here
<03426>_?
that thou shalt say
<0559> (8804)_,
No.
Then Jael
<03278>
Heber's
<02268>
wife
<0802>
took
<03947> (8799)
a nail
<03489>
of the tent
<0168>_,
and took
<07760> (8799)
an hammer
<04718>
in her hand
<03027>_,
and went
<0935> (8799)
softly
<03814>
unto him, and smote
<08628> (8799)
the nail
<03489>
into his temples
<07541>_,
and fastened
<06795> (8799)
it into the ground
<0776>_:
for he was fast asleep
<07290> (8738)
and weary
<05774> (8799)_.
So he died
<04191> (8799)_.
{and took: Heb. and put}
And, behold, as Barak
<01301>
pursued
<07291> (8802)
Sisera
<05516>_,
Jael
<03278>
came out
<03318> (8799)
to meet
<07125> (8800)
him, and said
<0559> (8799)
unto him, Come
<03212> (8798)_,
and I will shew
<07200> (8686)
thee the man
<0376>
whom thou seekest
<01245> (8764)_.
And when he came
<0935> (8799)
into her [tent], behold, Sisera
<05516>
lay
<05307> (8802)
dead
<04191> (8801)_,
and the nail
<03489>
[was] in his temples
<07541>_.
So God
<0430>
subdued
<03665> (8686)
on that day
<03117>
Jabin
<02985>
the king
<04428>
of Canaan
<03667>
before
<06440>
the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>_.
And the hand
<03027>
of the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
prospered
<03212> (8799) <01980> (8800)_,
and prevailed
<07186>
against Jabin
<02985>
the king
<04428>
of Canaan
<03667>_,
until they had destroyed
<03772> (8689)
Jabin
<02985>
king
<04428>
of Canaan
<03667>_.
{prospered...: Heb. going went and was hard}
Then sang
<07891> (8799)
Deborah
<01683>
and Barak
<01301>
the son
<01121>
of Abinoam
<042>
on that day
<03117>_,
saying
<0559> (8800)_,
Praise
<01288> (8761)
ye the LORD
<03068>
for the avenging
<06544> (8800) <06546>
of Israel
<03478>_,
when the people
<05971>
willingly offered
<05068> (8692)
themselves.
Hear
<08085> (8798)_,
O ye kings
<04428>_;
give ear
<0238> (8685)_,
O ye princes
<07336> (8802)_;
I, [even] I, will sing
<07891> (8799)
unto the LORD
<03068>_;
I will sing
<02167> (8762)
[praise] to the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_.
LORD
<03068>_,
when thou wentest out
<03318> (8800)
of Seir
<08165>_,
when thou marchedst out
<06805> (8800)
of the field
<07704>
of Edom
<0123>_,
the earth
<0776>
trembled
<07493> (8804)_,
and the heavens
<08064>
dropped
<05197> (8804)_,
the clouds
<05645>
also dropped
<05197> (8804)
water
<04325>_.
The mountains
<02022>
melted
<05140> (8804)
from before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>_,
[even] that Sinai
<05514>
from before
<06440>
the LORD
<03068>
God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_.
{melted: Heb. flowed}
In the days
<03117>
of Shamgar
<08044>
the son
<01121>
of Anath
<06067>_,
in the days
<03117>
of Jael
<03278>_,
the highways
<0734>
were unoccupied
<02308> (8804)_,
and the travellers
<01980> (8802)
walked
<03212> (8799)
through byways
<06128> <05410>_.
{travellers: Heb. walkers of paths} {byways: Heb. crooked ways}
[The inhabitants of] the villages
<06520>
ceased
<02308> (8804)_,
they ceased
<02308> (8804)
in Israel
<03478>_,
until that I Deborah
<01683>
arose
<06965> (8804)_,
that I arose
<06965> (8804)
a mother
<0517>
in Israel
<03478>_.
They chose
<0977> (8799)
new
<02319>
gods
<0430>_;
then [was] war
<03901>
in the gates
<08179>_:
was there a shield
<04043>
or spear
<07420>
seen
<07200> (8735)
among forty
<0705>
thousand
<0505>
in Israel
<03478>_?
My heart
<03820>
[is] toward the governors
<02710> (8802)
of Israel
<03478>_,
that offered themselves willingly
<05068> (8693)
among the people
<05971>_.
Bless
<01288> (8761)
ye the LORD
<03068>_.
Speak
<07878> (8798)_,
ye that ride
<07392> (8802)
on white
<06715>
asses
<0860>_,
ye that sit
<03427> (8802)
in judgment
<04055>_,
and walk
<01980> (8802)
by the way
<01870>_.
{Speak: or, Meditate}
[They that are delivered] from the noise
<06963>
of archers
<02686> (8764)
in the places of drawing water
<04857>_,
there shall they rehearse
<08567> (8762)
the righteous acts
<06666>
of the LORD
<03068>_,
[even] the righteous acts
<06666>
[toward the inhabitants] of his villages
<06520>
in Israel
<03478>_:
then shall the people
<05971>
of the LORD
<03068>
go down
<03381> (8804)
to the gates
<08179>_.
{righteous...: Heb. righteousnesses}
Awake
<05782> (8798)_,
awake
<05782> (8798)_,
Deborah
<01683>_:
awake
<05782> (8798)_,
awake
<05782> (8798)_,
utter
<01696> (8761)
a song
<07892>_:
arise
<06965> (8798)_,
Barak
<01301>_,
and lead thy captivity
<07628>
captive
<07617> (8798)_,
thou son
<01121>
of Abinoam
<042>_.
Then he made him that remaineth
<08300>
have dominion
<07287> (8762)
over the nobles
<0117>
among the people
<05971>_:
the LORD
<03068>
made me have dominion
<07287> (8762)
over the mighty
<01368>_.
Out of Ephraim
<0669>
[was there] a root
<08328>
of them against Amalek
<06002>_;
after
<0310>
thee, Benjamin
<01144>_,
among thy people
<05971>_;
out of Machir
<04353>
came down
<03381> (8804)
governors
<02710> (8781)_,
and out of Zebulun
<02074>
they that handle
<04900> (8802)
the pen
<07626>
of the writer
<05608> (8802)_.
{handle: Heb. draw with}
And the princes
<08269>
of Issachar
<03485>
[were] with Deborah
<01683>_;
even Issachar
<03485>_,
and also Barak
<01301>_:
he was sent
<07971> (8795)
on foot
<07272>
into the valley
<06010>_.
For the divisions
<06390>
of Reuben
<07205>
[there were] great
<01419>
thoughts
<02711>
of heart
<03820>_.
{foot: Heb. his feet} {thoughts: Heb. impressions} {For: or, In}
Why abodest
<03427> (8804)
thou among
<0996>
the sheepfolds
<04942>_,
to hear
<08085> (8800)
the bleatings
<08292>
of the flocks
<05739>_?
For the divisions
<06390>
of Reuben
<07205>
[there were] great
<01419>
searchings
<02714>
of heart
<03820>_.
{For: or, In}
Gilead
<01568>
abode
<07931> (8804)
beyond
<05676>
Jordan
<03383>_:
and why did Dan
<01835>
remain
<01481> (8799)
in ships
<0591>_?
Asher
<0836>
continued
<03427> (8804)
on the sea
<03220>
shore
<02348>_,
and abode
<07931> (8799)
in his breaches
<04664>_.
{shore: or, port} {breaches: or, creeks}
Zebulun
<02074>
and Naphtali
<05321>
[were] a people
<05971>
[that] jeoparded
<02778> (8765)
their lives
<05315>
unto the death
<04191> (8800)
in the high places
<04791>
of the field
<07704>_.
{jeoparded: Heb. exposed to reproach}
The kings
<04428>
came
<0935> (8804)
[and] fought
<03898> (8738)_,
then fought
<03898> (8738)
the kings
<04428>
of Canaan
<03667>
