New Living Translation (NLT)
Judges 4
23 So on that day Israel saw God defeat Jabin, the Canaanite king.
24 And from that time on Israel became stronger and stronger against King Jabin until they finally destroyed him.
Judges 5
1 On that day Deborah and Barak son of Abinoam sang this song:
2 “Israel’s leaders took charge, and the people gladly followed. Praise the LORD!
3 “Listen, you kings! Pay attention, you mighty rulers! For I will sing to the LORD. I will make music to the LORD, the God of Israel.
4 “LORD, when you set out from Seir and marched across the fields of Edom, the earth trembled, and the cloudy skies poured down rain.
5 The mountains quaked in the presence of the LORD, the God of Mount Sinai— in the presence of the LORD, the God of Israel.
6 “In the days of Shamgar son of Anath, and in the days of Jael, people avoided the main roads, and travelers stayed on winding pathways.
7 There were few people left in the villages of Israel— until Deborah arose as a mother for Israel.
8 When Israel chose new gods, war erupted at the city gates. Yet not a shield or spear could be seen among forty thousand warriors in Israel!
9 My heart is with the commanders of Israel, with those who volunteered for war. Praise the LORD!
We pray that this ministry will be a blessing to you and your family.
