1. Then sang Deborah with Barak, the son of Abinoam, on that day, saying,
2. Praise ye the Lord for the avenging of Israel, when the people willingly offered themselves.
3. Hear, O ye kings. Give ear, O ye princes; I, even I, will sing unto the Lord; I will praise the Lord God of Israel.
4. Lord, when thou didst go out of Seir, when thou didst march out of the field of Edom, the earth trembled, and the heavens dropped; the clouds also dropped water.
5. The mountains melted from before the Lord, even that Sinai from before the Lord God of Israel.
6. In the days of Shamgar, the son of Anath, in the days of Jael, the highways ceased, and those that walked went astray through crooked paths.
7. The inhabitants of the villages ceased; they had ceased in Israel until I Deborah arose, I arose a mother in Israel.
8. When they chose new gods, the war was at the gates. Was there a shield or spear to be seen among forty thousand in Israel?
9. My heart is toward the princes of Israel, those that offered themselves willingly among the people. Bless ye the Lord.
