1 Later that day, Deborah and Abinoam's son Barak celebrated by singing this song: 2 |When hair grows long in Israel, when the people give themselves willingly, bless the LORD! 3 Listen, you kings! Turn your ears to me, you rulers! As for me, to the LORD I will sing! I will sing praise to the LORD God of Israel. 4 LORD, when you left Seir, when you marched out from the grain field of Edom, the earth quaked and the heavens poured out rain; indeed, the clouds poured out water. 5 Mountains tremble at the presence of the LORD — even Sinai!—at the presence of the LORD God of Israel. 6 During the lifetime of Anath's son Shamgar and during the lifetime of Jael highways remained deserted, while travelers kept to back roads. 7 Rural populations plummeted in Israel; until I, Deborah, arose; until I—an Israeli mother—arose.
