Deborah: awake! awake! give a song: Up! Barak, and take prisoner those who took you prisoner, O son of Abinoam. <\/br><strong>13<\/strong> Then the chiefs went down to the doors; the Lord&#8217;s people went down among the strong ones. <\/br><strong>14<\/strong> Out of Ephraim they came down into the valley; after you, Benjamin, among your tribesmen; from Machir came down the captains, and from Zebulun those in whose hand is the ruler&#8217;s rod. <\/br><strong>15<\/strong> Your chiefs, Issachar, were with Deborah; and Naphtali was true to Barak; into the valley they went rushing out at his feet. In Reuben there were divisions, and great searchings of heart. <\/br><strong>16<\/strong> Why did you keep quiet among the sheep, hearing nothing but the watchers piping to the flocks? <\/br><strong>17<\/strong> Gilead was living over Jordan; and Dan was waiting in his ships; Asher kept in his place by the sea&#8217;s edge, living by his inlets. <\/br><strong>18<\/strong> It was the people of Zebulun who put their lives in danger, even to death, with Naphtali on the high places of the field. <\/br><strong>19<\/strong> The kings came on to the fight, the kings of Canaan were warring; in Taanach by the waters of Megiddo: they took no profit in money. <\/br><strong>20<\/strong> The stars from heaven were fighting; from their highways they were fighting against Sisera. <\/br><strong>21<\/strong> The river Kishon took them violently away, stopping their flight, the river Kishon. Give praise, O my soul, to the strength of the Lord! <\/br><strong>22<\/strong> Then loudly the feet of the horses were sounding with the stamping, the stamping of their war-horses. <\/br><strong>23<\/strong> A curse, a curse on Meroz! said the angel of the Lord. A bitter curse on her townspeople! Because they came not to the help of the Lord, to the help of the Lord among the strong ones. <\/br><strong>24<\/strong> Blessings be on Jael, more than on all women! Blessings greater than on any in the tents! <\/br><strong>25<\/strong> His request was for water, she gave him milk; she put butter before him on a fair plate. <\/br><strong>26<\/strong> She put out her hand to the tent-pin, and her right hand to the workman&#8217;s hammer; and she gave Sisera a blow, crushing his head, wounding and driving through his brow. <\/br><strong>27<\/strong> Bent at her feet he went down, he was stretched out; bent at her feet he went down; where he was bent down, there he went down in death. <\/br><strong>28<\/strong> Looking out from the window she gave a cry, the mother of Sisera was crying out through the window, Why is his carriage so long in coming? When will the noise of his wheels be sounding? <\/br><strong>29<\/strong> Her wise women gave answer to her, yes, she made answer again to herself, <\/br><strong>30<\/strong> Are they not getting, are they not parting the goods among them: a young girl or two to every man; and to Sisera robes of coloured needlework, worked in fair colours on this side and on that, for the neck of the queen? <\/br><strong>31<\/strong> So may destruction come on all your haters, O Lord; but let your lovers be like the sun going out in his strength. And for forty years the land had peace. <\/br><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\n    google_ad_client = \"ca-pub-4647651612525789\";\n    google_ad_slot = \"6844414800\";\n    google_ad_width =
