Deborah and Barak Celebrate in Song

Later that day, Deborah and Abinoam’s son Barak celebrated by singing this song:

“When hair grows long[a] in Israel,[b]
    when the people give themselves willingly,
        bless the Lord!
Listen, you kings!
    Turn your ears to me, you rulers!
As for me, to the Lord I will sing!
    I will sing praise to the Lord God of Israel.
