And they repeated [the] people of Israel to do the evil in [the] eyes of Yahweh and Ehud he had died.

6 Hun sendte nu Bud efter Barak, Abinoams Søn fra Kedesj i Naftali, og sagde til ham: »Har ikke HERREN, Israels Gud, budt: Bryd op, drag hen paa Tabors Bjerg og tag 10 000 Mand af Naftali og Zebulon med dig;
And she sent and she summoned Barak [the] son of Abinoam from Kedesh Naphtali and she said to him ¿ not has he commanded - Yahweh [the] God of Israel go and you will march at [the] mountain of Tabor and you will take with you ten thousand man from [the] descendants of Naphtali and of [the] descendants of Zebulun.
7 saa skal jeg drage Jabins Hærfører Sisera med hans Vogne og Hærstyrke hen til dig ved Kisjonbækken og give ham i din Haand!«
And I will draw to you to [the] wadi of Kishon Sisera [the] commander of [the] army of Jabin and chariotry his and multitude his and I will give him in hand your.
8 Barak svarede hende: »Hvis du vil gaa med, vil jeg gaa; men hvis du ikke gaar med, gaar jeg ikke!«
And he said to her Barak if you will go with me and I will go and if not you will go with me not I will go.
9 Da sagde hun: »Vel, jeg gaar med, men saa faar du ikke Æren af den Færd, du begiver dig ud paa, thi HERREN vil overgive Sisera i en Kvindes Haand!« Saa brød Debora op og drog af Sted til Kedesj med Barak.
And she said certainly I will go with you nevertheless for not it will be honor your on the way which you [are] going for in [the] hand of a woman he will sell Yahweh Sisera and she rose Deborah (and she went *L(abh)*) with Barak Kedesh towards.

And he summoned Barak Zebulun and Naphtali Kedesh towards and it went up at feet his ten thousand man and she went up with him Deborah.

And Heber the Kenite [was] separate from [the] Kenite[s] from [the] descendants of Hobab [the] father-in-law of Moses and he had pitched tent his to [the] great tree (in Zaanannim *Q(K)*) which [is] with Kedesh.
12 Da Sisera fik Melding om, at Barak, Abinoams Søn, var draget op paa Tabors Bjerg,
And people told to Sisera that he had gone up Barak [the] son of Abinoam [the] mountain of Tabor.
13 stævnede han alle sine Stridsvogne, 900 jernbeslagne Vogne, og hele sin Krigsstyrke fra Harosjet Haggojim til Kisjonbækken.
And he summoned Sisera all chariotry his nine hundred chariot[s] of iron and all the people which [was] with him from Harosheth Haggoyim to [the] wadi of Kishon.
14 Da sagde Debora til Barak: »Bryd nu op! Thi det er i Dag. HERREN vil give Sisera i din Haand. Er HERREN ikke draget foran dig?« Barak steg da ned fra Tabors Bjerg, fulgt af de 10 000 Mand.
And she said Deborah to Barak arise for this [is] the day which he has given Yahweh Sisera in hand your ¿ not Yahweh has he gone out before you and he went down Barak from [the] mountain of Tabor and ten thousand man [were] after him.
15 Og foran Barak bragte HERREN Uorden iblandt alle Siseras Stridsvogne og i hele hans Hær. Sisera sprang af sin Vogn og flygtede til Fods;
And he routed Yahweh Sisera and all the chariotry and all the army to [the] mouth of [the] sword before Barak and he went down Sisera from on the chariot and he fled on feet his.

And Barak he pursued after the chariotry and after the army to Harosheth Haggoyim and it fell all [the] army of Sisera to [the] mouth of [the] sword not it was left up to one.

And Sisera he fled on feet his to [the] tent of Jael ([the] wife of *L(abh)*) Heber the Kenite for peace [was] between Jabin [the] king of Hazor and between [the] house of Heber the Kenite.
18 Da gik Jael Sisera i Møde og sagde til ham: »Tag dog ind hos mig, Herre, du har intet at frygte!« Han tog da ind i Teltet hos hende, og hun dækkede ham til med et Tæppe.
And she went out Jael to meet Sisera and she said to him turn aside! O lord my turn aside! to me may not you be afraid and he turned aside to her the tent towards and she covered him with the covering.
19 Og han sagde til hende: »Giv mig lidt Vand at drikke, thi jeg er tørstig!« Da aabnede hun Mælkesækken og gav ham at drikke og dækkede ham atter til.
And he said to her give to drink me please a little of water for I am thirsty and she opened [the] skin-bottle of milk and she gave a drink him and she covered him.
20 Saa sagde han til hende: »Stil dig hen i Teltdøren, og hvis der kommer en og spørger, om der er nogen herinde, saa sig nej!«
And he said to her stand [the] opening of the tent and it will be if anyone he will come and he will ask you and he will say ¿ [is] there here anyone and you will say no.
21 Men Jael, Hebers Hustru, greb en Teltpæl og tog en Hammer i Haanden, listede sig ind til ham og slog Pælen igennem hans Tinding, saa den trængte ned i Jorden; thi han var faldet i dyb Søvn, træt som han var; saaledes døde han.
And she took Jael [the] wife of Heber [the] peg of the tent and she put the hammer in hand her and she went to him in secrecy and she drove the peg in temple his and it went down in the ground and he [was] sleeping and he was weary and he died.
22 Og se, Barak, søm forfulgte Sisera, kom forbi. Da gik Jael ham i Møde og sagde til ham: »Kom, jeg skal vise dig den Mand, du søger efter!« Saa kom han ind til hende. Og se, der laa Sisera død med Teltpælen gennem Tindingen.
And there! Barak [was] pursuing Sisera and she went out Jael to meet him and she said to him come and I will show you the man whom you [are] seeking and he went to her and there! Sisera [was] lying dead and the peg [was] in temple his.
23 Saaledes lod Gud paa den Dag Kana'anæerkongen Jabin bukke under for Israeliterne;
And he subdued God on the day that Jabin [the] king of Canaan before [the] people of Israel.
24 og Israeliternes Haand faldt haardere og haardere paa Kana'anæerkongen Jabin, til de fik ham tilintetgjort.
And it went [the] hand of [the] people of Israel going and hard on Jabin [the] king of Canaan until that they cut off Jabin [the] king of Canaan.
