1. That day Deborah and Barak son of Abinoam sang this song:
2. When they let down their hair in Israel,they let it blow wild in the wind.The people volunteered with abandon,bless God!
3. Hear O kings! Listen O princes!To God, yes to God, I’ll sing,Make music to God,to the God of Israel.
9. Lift your hearts high, O Israel,with abandon, volunteering yourselves with the people—bless God!
10-11. You who ride on prize donkeyscomfortably mounted on blanketsAnd you who walk down the roads,ponder, attend!Gather at the town welland listen to them sing,Chanting the tale of God’s victories,his victories accomplished in Israel.Then the people of Godwent down to the city gates.
12. Wake up, wake up, Deborah!Wake up, wake up, sing a song!On your feet, Barak!Take your prisoners, son of Abinoam!
