1 On that day Deborah (bee) and Barak (lightning) son of Abinoam (my father is delight) sang this song: 2 “When the princes take the lead in Israel (he wrestles with God), when the people volunteer, bless the LORD {YHWH}. 3 Listen, O kings! Give ear, O princes! I will sing to the LORD {YHWH}; I will sing praise to the LORD, the God {Elohe} of Israel (he wrestles with God). 4 O LORD {YHWH}, when You went out from Seir (shaggy), when You marched from the land of Edom (red), the earth trembled, the heavens poured out rain, and the clouds poured down water. 5 The mountains quaked before the LORD {YHWH}, the One of Sinai (thorny), before the LORD, the God {Elohe} of Israel (he wrestles with God). 6 In the days of Shamgar (sword) son of Anath (answer), in the days of Jael (mountain goat), the highways were deserted and the travelers took the byways. 7 Life in the villages ceased; it ended in Israel (he wrestles with God), until I, Deborah (bee), arose, a mother in Israel.
