The Song of Deborah
5 [a] On the day that the Israelites defeated Sisera, Deborah and Barak son of Abinoam sang this song:
2 “The men of Israel prepared for battle.[b]
They volunteered to go to war.
Praise the Lord!
3 “Listen, kings.
Pay attention, rulers.
I will sing.
I myself will sing to the Lord.
I will make music to the Lord,
to the God of the Israelites.
Footnotes
- Judges 5:1 Chapter 5 This is a very old song, and many of the lines are hard to understand in the Hebrew text.
- Judges 5:2 The men … battle This might also mean “When leaders led in Israel” or “When men wore long hair in Israel.” Soldiers often dedicated their hair as a special gift to God.
