⁶ She sent for Barak son of Abinoam^(A) from Kedesh^(B) in Naphtali and said to him, “The Lord, the God of Israel, commands you: ‘Go, take with you ten thousand men of Naphtali^(C) and Zebulun^(D) and lead them up to Mount Tabor.^{(E) 7} I will lead Sisera, the commander of Jabin’s^(F) army, with his chariots and his troops to the Kishon River^(G) and give him into your hands.^(H)’”

¹⁰ There Barak summoned^(A) Zebulun and Naphtali, and ten thousand men went up under his command. Deborah also went up with him.

¹⁴ Then Deborah said to Barak, “Go! This is the day the Lord has given Sisera into your hands.^(A) Has not the Lord gone ahead^(B) of you?” So Barak went down Mount Tabor, with ten thousand men following him.

¹⁰ The Spirit of the Lord came on him,^(A) so that he became Israel’s judge^[a] and went to war. The Lord gave Cushan-Rishathaim^(B) king of Aram^(C) into the hands of Othniel, who overpowered him.

²⁷ When he arrived there, he blew a trumpet^(A) in the hill country of Ephraim, and the Israelites went down with him from the hills, with him leading them.

²⁸ “Follow me,” he ordered, “for the Lord has given Moab,^(B) your enemy, into your hands.^(C)” So they followed him down and took possession of the fords of the Jordan^(D) that led to Moab; they allowed no one to cross over. ²⁹ At that time they struck down about ten thousand Moabites, all vigorous and strong; not one escaped.
