SONS OF YISRA EL ARE SOLD
And after Ehud dies, the sons of Yisra El add to work evil in the eyes of Yah Veh: ² and Yah Veh sells them into the hand of Yabyn sovereign of Kenaan, who reigns in Hasor - Sisera is governor of his host - who settles by Harosheth/Engravers of the Goyim. ³ And the sons of Yisra El cry to Yah Veh: for he has nine hundred chariots of iron; and he strongly oppresses the sons of Yisra El twenty years. ⁴
DEBORAH
And Deborah a woman prophetess - a woman of Lappidoth judges Yisra El at that time: ⁵ and she settles under the palm tree of Deborah between Ramah and Beth El in mount Ephrayim: and the sons of Yisra El ascend to her for judgment. ⁶ And she sends and calls Baraq the son of Abi Noam from Kedesh Naphtali and says to him, Misvahs not Yah Veh Elohim of Yisra El, Go and draw toward mount Tabor and take with you ten thousand men of the sons of Naphtali and of the sons of Zebulun? ⁷ and I draw the governor of the host of Yabyn to you - with his chariots and his multitude at the wadi Qishon Sisera; and I give him into your hand. ⁸ And Baraq says to her, If you go with me, I go! If you go not with me, I go not! ⁹ And she says, In walking, I walk with you: finally, the journey you walk is not for your adornment; for Yah Veh sells Sisera into the hand of a woman. - and Deborah rises and goes with Baraq to Qedesh. ¹⁰ And Baraq cries to Zebulun and Naphtali to Qedesh; and he ascends with ten thousand men at his feet: and Deborah ascends with him. ¹¹ And Heber the Qayiniy of the sons of Hobab the father in law of Mosheh separates himself from the Qayiniy and spread his tent to the mighty oaks of Saanayim by Qedesh. ¹² And they tell Sisera that Baraq the son of Abi Noam ascends to mount Tabor. ¹³ And Sisera cries for all his chariots - nine hundred chariots of iron and all the people with him - from Harosheth/the engravers of the goyim to the river of Qishon. ¹⁴ And Deborah says to Baraq, Rise! For this is the day Yah Veh gives Sisera into your hand: Goes not Yah Veh at your face? - and Baraq descends from mount Tabor with ten thousand men after him. ¹⁵ And Yah Veh agitates Sisera and all his chariots and all his camp with the mouth of the sword at the face of Baraq; so that Sisera descends off his chariot and flees on his feet. ¹⁶ And Baraq pursues after the chariots and after the camp to Harosheth/the engravers of the goyim: and all the camp of Sisera falls on the mouth of the sword - not one survives. ¹⁷ And Sisera flees on his feet to the tent of Yael the woman of Heber the Qayiniy: for there is shalom between Yabyn the sovereign of Hasor and between the house of Heber the Qayiniy. ¹⁸ And Yael goes to meet Sisera, and says to him, Turn in, my adoni, turn in to me; awe not. - and he turns in to her into the tent and she covers him with a blanket. ¹⁹ And he says to her, Give me, I beseech you, a little water to drink, for I thirst. - and she opens a skin of milk and gives him drink and covers him. ²⁰ Again he says to her, Stand in the opening of the tent, and so be it, when any man comes and asks of you, and says, Is there any man here? that you say, No. ²¹ Then Yael, the woman of Heber, takes a tent stake and sets a hammer in her hand and goes quietly to him and stakes the stake into his temples and drives it into the earth: for he is sound asleep and flutters: and thus he dies. ²² And behold, as Baraq pursues Sisera, Yael goes to meet him and says to him, Come! See the man you seek! And he comes into her, and behold, Sisera - fallen and dead - and the stake in his temples. ²³ And that day, Elohim subdues Yabyn the sovereign of Kenaan at the face of the sons of Yisra El. ²⁴ And in going, the hand of the sons of Yisra El goes - goes hard against Yabyn the sovereign of Kenaan, until they cut off Yabyn sovereign of Kenaan.

²³ And if by these, you are not disciplined by me, and walk contrary to me, ²⁴ then I also walk contrary to you and smite you yet seven for your sins: ²⁵ and I bring a sword on you to avenge the avenging of my covenant: and when you gather to your cities, I send the pestilence among you; that you become given into the hand of the enemy:

¹¹ and the sons of Yisra El work evil in the eyes of Yah Veh and serve Baalim:

¹⁹ And so be it, at the death of the judge, they return, more ruinous than their fathers, by going after other elohim to serve them and to prostrate to them; they neither fall from their exploits nor from their hard way. ²⁰ And Yah Veh kindles his wrath against Yisra El; and he says, Because this goyim trespasses my covenant which I misvahed their fathers; and hearken not to my voice;

A PERSECUTION OF THE MIDYANIY, THE AMALEKIY, AND THE SONS OF THE EAST
And the sons of Yisra El work evil in the eyes of Yah Veh; and Yah Veh gives them into the hand of Midyan seven years:

⁶
YISRA EL ABANDONS YAH VEH
And the sons of Yisra El add to work evil in the eyes of Yah Veh and serve Baalim and Ashtaroth and the elohim of Aram and the elohim of Sidon and the elohim of Moab and the elohim of the sons of Ammon and the elohim of the Peleshethiy and forsake Yah Veh and serve him not.

²³ and you abounded their sons as the stars of the heavens; and brought them to the land, concerning which you said to their fathers, to go in to possess it: ²⁴ and the sons came in and possessed the land and you subdued at their face the settlers of the land - the Kenaaniy and gave them into their hands - with their sovereigns and the people of the land - to work with them as they pleased: ²⁵ and they captured cut off cities and a fat soil and possessed houses full of all goods, wells hewed, vineyards and oliveyards and food trees in abundance: so they ate and satisfied and fattened and pleased themselves in your great goodness: ²⁶ and they were rebellious and rebelled against you and cast your torah behind their backs and slaughtered your prophets who witnessed against them to turn them to you: and they worked great scornings: ²⁷ and you gave them into the hand of their tribulators who tribulated them: and in the time of their tribulation they cried to you; and you heard from the heavens; and according to your abundant mercies you gave them saviours to save them from the hand of their tribulators: ²⁸ and they rested; and returned to work evil at your face: and you left them in the hand of their enemies to subjugate them: and they returned and cried to you and you heard from the heavens; and many times you rescued them according to your mercies: ²⁹ and witnessed against them to return them to your torah: and they seethe and hearken not to your misvoth; but sin against your judgments - which if a human work, he lives in them; and they gave a revolting shoulder and hardened their neck and hearkened not: ³⁰ and for many years you draw them and witness against them by your Spirit in the hand of your prophets; and they hearkened not: so you gave them into the hand of the people of the lands.

⁴³ Many times he rescued them; but they rebelled with their counsel and they are subdued in their perversity. ⁴⁴ He saw their tribulation when he heard their shouting; ⁴⁵ and he remembers his covenant and sighs according to the abundance of his mercies:

³ O Yah Veh, are not your eyes on trustworthiness? you smite them, and they writhe not; you finish them off, and they refuse to take correction: they toughen their faces as a rock; they refuse to return.

YAH SHUA CONQUERS NORTHERN PELESHETH And so be it, Yabyn sovereign of Hasor hears, and he sends to Yobab sovereign of Madon and to the sovereign of Shimron and to the sovereign of Achshaph;

¹⁰ And at that time, Yah Shua turns back and captures Hasor; and smites the sovereign thereof with the sword: for formerly Hasor was the head of all those sovereigndoms. ¹¹ And they smite all the souls therein with the mouth of the sword - devoting them - no survivor having breath: and he burns Hasor with fire:

³⁶ and Adamah and Ramah and Hasor

¹⁴ And Yah Veh kindles his wrath against Yisra El and he gives them into the hands of plunderers who plunder them; and he sells them into the hands of their enemies all around, so that they cannot stand at the face of their enemies. ¹⁵ Wherever they go the hand of Yah Veh is against them for evil as Yah Veh worded and as Yah Veh oathed to them: and they are mightily depressed.

¹³ And Sisera cries for all his chariots - nine hundred chariots of iron and all the people with him - from Harosheth/the engravers of the goyim to the river of Qishon.

¹⁶ And Baraq pursues after the chariots and after the camp to Harosheth/the engravers of the goyim: and all the camp of Sisera falls on the mouth of the sword - not one survives.

⁷ And Yah Veh kindles his wrath against Yisra El; and he sells them into the hands of the Peleshethiy and into the hands of the sons of Ammon:

⁹ and they forgot Yah Veh their Elohim, and he sold them into the hand of Sisera governor of the host of Hasor and into the hand of the Peleshethiy and into the hand of the sovereign of Moab; and they fought against them:

⁹ Work them as to Midyan; as Sisera, as Yabiyn, at the wadi of Qishon;

¹
THE SIN OF YISRA EL
Thus says Yah Veh, Where is the scroll of divorcement of your mother whom I sent away? Or to which of my exactors have I sold you? Behold, for your perversities you sold yourselves, and for your rebellions is your mother sent away.

²⁵ and having naught to give, his adoni summons to sell him and his woman and children, and all - as much as he has and to give back.

²⁹ and at noon, you grope in darkness as the blind grope; and you prosper not in your ways: and you become only oppressed and stripped all days and no man saves you.

³³ The fruit of your soil and all your labours, eaten by a people you know not; and you become only oppressed and crushed all days:

⁴⁷ because you serve not Yah Veh your Elohim with cheerfulness and with goodness of heart for the abundance of all ⁴⁸ - you serve the enemies Yah Veh sends against you in famine and in thirst and in nakedness and in want of all: and he gives a yoke of iron upon your neck, until he desolates you:

¹⁶ And the sons of Yoseph say, We find that the mountain is not for us: and all the Kenaaniy who settle in the land of the valley have chariots of iron - they of Beth Shaan and her daughters and they of the valley of Yizre El.

¹⁹ and Yah Veh is with Yah Hudah; and he dispossesses the mountain but dispossesses not the settlers of the valley because they have chariots of iron.

⁹ And the sons of Yisra El cry to Yah Veh and Yah Veh raises a saviour to the sons of Yisra El who saves them - Othni El the son of Qenaz the younger brother of Kaleb.

¹⁵
EHUD THE SAVIOUR
And the sons of Yisra El cry to Yah Veh and Yah Veh raises them a saviour - Ehud the son of Gera - a Ben Yaminiy - a man shut of his right hand: and by his hand the sons of Yisra El send an offering to Eglon the sovereign of Moab;

⁸ They choose new elohim; then fight in the portals: is there a buckler or javelin seen among forty thousand in Yisra El?

¹⁶ - and they turn aside the elohim of strangers from among them and serve Yah Veh: and his soul shortens for the toil of Yisra El.

⁸ And the sons of Yisra El say to Shemu El, Hush not to cry to Yah Veh our Elohim for us, to save us from the hand of the Peleshethiy.

¹⁵ call on me in the day of tribulation: I rescue you and you honor me.

³⁴ When he slaughters them, then they seek him - return and seek early after El;

⁴² their enemies oppressed them and subdued them under their hand.

²⁷ saying to a tree, You are my father; and to a stone, You birthed me: for they face the nape of their neck to me and not their face: and in the time of their evil they say, Rise! and, Save us! ²⁸ And where are the elohim you worked for yourself? Have them rise, if they can save you in the time of your evil: for the number of your cities are your elohim, O Yah Hudah.

²⁰
THE SONG OF MIRYAM
And Miryam the prophetess, the sister of Aharon, takes a tambourine in her hand; and all the women follow her with tambourines and with round dances.

¹⁴ And Hilqi Yah the priest and Achiy Qam and Achbor and Shaphan and Asah Yah go to Huldah the prophetess the woman of Shallum the son of Tiqvah the son of Harchas the guard of the clothes; - and she settles in Yeru Shalem - in the second and they word with her.

¹⁴ My Elohim, remember on Tobi Yah and Sanballat according to these their works; and on the prophetess Noad Yah and the rest of the prophets that they awe me.

²⁸
THE SPIRIT OF YAH VEH POURS ON ALL FLESH
And so be it, afterward, I pour my spirit on all flesh; and your sons and your daughters prophesy; your elders dream dreams; your youths see visions: ²⁹ and also on the servants and on the maids in those days I pour my spirit.

⁴ For I ascended you from the land of Misrayim and redeemed you from the house of servants; and ere your face I sent Mosheh, Aharon, and Miryam.

³⁶ And there is Hannah, a prophetess the daughter of Peni El of the scion of Asher - she is advanced in many days: who lived with a man seven years from her virginity;

⁹ And this one has four daughters - virgins, who prophesy.

⁵ and every woman praying or prophesying having her head unveiled shames her head - for all that is even as one shaven.

²⁸ There is neither Yah Hudiy nor Hellene; there is neither bond nor liberated; there is neither male nor female: for you are all one in Messiah Yah Shua;

⁸ And Deborah the suckler of Ribqah dies and they entomb her beneath Beth El under an oak: and they call the name thereof Allon Bachuth.

¹³ And so be it, on the morrow, Mosheh sits to judge the people: and the people stand by Mosheh from the morning to the evening.

¹⁶ when they have a word, they come to me; and I judge between man and friend and I have them know the statutes of Elohim and his torahs.

¹⁹ Hearken now to my voice, I counsel you: and Elohim is with you: you become for the people in front of Elohim, to bring the words to Elohim:

²⁶ and they judge the people at all times: they bring the hard words to Mosheh; but every small word they judge themselves.

⁸
THE TORAH ON JUDGMENT Whenever a word rises that marvels you in judgment - between blood and blood, between plea and plea, and between plague and plague - words of dispute within your portals: then rise, and ascend the place Yah Veh your Elohim chooses; ⁹ and come to the priests the Leviym and to the judge of those days; and inquire: and they tell you the word of the judgment: ¹⁰ and work according to the word of the mouths of them of the place Yah Veh chooses tell you; and guard to work according to all they point out to you ¹¹ - according to the mouth of the torah they point out to you: and work according to the judgment they tell you: turn not aside from the word they tell you - right or left. ¹² And the man who works arrogance, and hearkens not to the priest who stands to minister there at the face of Yah Veh your Elohim, or to the judge, even that man dies: and you burn away the evil from Yisra El.

² and goes from Beth El to Luz and passes along to the borders of Arki to Ataroth;

²² and Beth Arabah and Semarayim and Beth El

THE WOMEN OF EL QANAH
And so be it, one man of Ramahayim Sophim of mount Ephrayim; and his name is El Qanah, the son of Yerocham the son of Eli Hu the son of Tochu the son of Suph - an Ephrathiy:

¹⁹
THE BIRTH OF SHEMU EL
And they rise early in the morning and prostrate at the face of Yah Veh; and return and come to their house to Ramah: and El Qanah knows Hannah his woman; and Yah Veh remembers her.

¹⁶ and the five ringleaders of the Peleshethiy see it, and return to Eqron the same day. ¹⁷ And these are the golden hemorrhoids the Peleshethiy return to Yah Veh for the guilt: for Ashdod one; for Azzah one; for Ashqelon one; for Gath one; for Eqron one:

¹
THE DEATH OF SHEMU EL
Shemu El dies and all the Yisra Eliy gathers and chops over him and entomb him in his house at Ramah. And David rises and descends to the wilderness of Paran.

² and Abi Shalom starts early and stands at the hand by the way of the portal: and so be it, any man who has a controversy comes to the sovereign for judgment; and Abi Shalom calls to him and says, Of what city are you? And he says, Your servant is of one of the scions of Yisra El. ³ And Abi Shalom says to him, See, your words are good and straight; but there is no man of the sovereign to hear you. ⁴ And Abi Shalom says, Who set me judge in the land, that every man who has any plea or judgment comes to me to justify him? ⁵ And so be it, when any man approaches to prostrate to him, he sends his hand and holds him and kisses him: ⁶ and Abi Shalom works this word to all Yisra El who come to the sovereign for judgment: and Abi Shalom steals the hearts of the men of Yisra El.

¹⁵ Thus says Yah Veh: A voice is heard in Ramah - lamentation; weeping of bitterness: Rachel weeping for her sons refuses to sigh for her sons, because they are not.

⁹ Misvahed I you not? Strengthen! Encourage! Neither awe nor terrify! - for Yah Veh your Elohim is with you wherever you go.

³²
THE PEBBLE OF NAPHTALI The sixth pebble goes to the sons of Naphtali for the sons of Naphtali for their families:

³⁷ and Qedesh and Edrei and En Hasor

³² And from the rod of Naphtali: Qedesh Galiyl with her suburbs to be a city of refuge for the murderer; and Hammoth Dor with her suburbs and Qartan with her suburbs - three cities.

¹⁰ And Baraq cries to Zebulun and Naphtali to Qedesh; and he ascends with ten thousand men at his feet: and Deborah ascends with him.

¹
THE SONG OF DEBORAH AND BARAQ
And on that day, Deborah and Baraq the son of Abi Noam sing, saying,

¹⁴ From Ephrayim, their root is against Amaleq; after you, Ben Yamin, among your people; from Machir the statute setters descend; and from Zebulun they who draw with the scion of the scribe. ¹⁵ And the governors of Yissachar are with Deborah; as Yissachar, thus Baraq - sent on foot into the valley. As for the divisions of Reu Ben great are the statutes of heart. ¹⁶ Why seat you between the stalls? To hear the hisses of the droves? As for the divisions of Reu Ben great are the probings of heart. ¹⁷ Gilad tabernacles beyond Yarden: and Dan - why sojourns he in ships? Asher settles on the sea haven and tabernacles in his breakwater. ¹⁸ Zebulun and Naphtali are a people exposed - to reproach their souls - to die in the high places of the field.

¹⁸ Then he says to Zebach and Sal Munna, How are the men you slaughtered at Tabor? And they say, As you, thus they; each one according to the form of the sons of one sovereign.

³ And pass beyond from there and go to the mighty oak of Tabor; and there you find three men ascending to Elohim to Beth El - one bearing three kids and one bearing three rounds of bread and one bearing a bag of wine:

⁶ Rise, O Yah Veh, in your wrath, lift yourself; because of the fury of my tribulators: and waken for me the judgment you misvahed.

¹² the north and the right you created. Tabor and Hermon shout in your name.

² You, lift an ensign upon the barren mountain; exalt the voice to them; shake the hand, so that they go into the portals of the volunteers. ³ I misvah my hallowed; I also call my mighty for my wrath - those jumping for joy in my pomp. ⁴ The voice of a multitude in the mountains, in the likeness of a great people; an uproar of noise of the sovereigndoms of goyim who gather: Yah Veh Sabaoth musters the host of the war: ⁵ they come from a land afar - from the end of the heavens - Yah Veh and the instruments of his rage to despoil the whole land.

¹⁸ I live - an oracle of the Sovereign whose name is Yah Veh Sabaoth, Surely as Tabor is among the mountains and as Karmel/orchard by the sea, thus he comes.

¹
THE JUDGMENT OF YAH VEH AGAINST YISRA EL
Hear this, O priests; and hearken, you house of Yisra El; and hearken, O house of the sovereign: for judgment is toward you because you become a snare on Mispeh, and a net spread over Tabor:

⁴⁷ for thus Yah Veh misvahed us: I place you, a light of the goyim, to be to salvation to the finality of the earth. ^{Isaiah 42:6,7}

³² And what word I still? for the time fails me to declare about Gidon and also Baraq and Shimshon and Yipthach; also David and Shemu El and the prophets

⁴ And I callous the heart of Paroh to pursue after them; that I become honored through Paroh and through all his valiant; that the Misrayim knows I - Yah Veh. - and thus they work.

¹³ And if a man lurks not, but Elohim happens him into his hand; then I set you a place for him to flee.

⁷ then rise from the lurk and possess the city: for Yah Veh your Elohim gives it into your hand.

⁸ And Yah Veh says to Yah Shua, Awe them not: for I give them into your hand; not a man of them stands at your face.

⁶ And Yah Veh says to Yah Shua, Awe not their face: for tomorrow about this time I give them all pierced at the face of Yisra El: hamstring their horses and burn their chariots with fire.

²⁰ For it was of Yah Veh to callous their hearts - to meet Yisra El in war - to devote them, so that they have no supplication but that he destroy them - as Yah Veh misvahed Mosheh.

¹⁴ And Deborah says to Baraq, Rise! For this is the day Yah Veh gives Sisera into your hand: Goes not Yah Veh at your face? - and Baraq descends from mount Tabor with ten thousand men after him.

²¹ The wadi of Qishon bears them away - that ancient wadi - the wadi Qishon. O my soul, you tread down strength.

¹⁰ Behold, this day your eyes see how that today Yah Veh gave you into my hand in the cave: and said to slaughter you; but I spared you: and I said, I send not my hand against my adoni; for he is the anointed of Yah Veh:

¹⁸ and you tell this day how you work good with me: how Yah Veh shut me into your hand, and you slaughtered me not:

⁴⁰ And Eli Yah says to them, Apprehend the prophets of Baal; that not a man of them escape. - and they apprehend them. And Eli Yah descends them to the wadi Qishon and slaughters them there.

⁹ Work them as to Midyan; as Sisera, as Yabiyn, at the wadi of Qishon; ¹⁰ desolated at En Dor, to become as dung for the soil.

¹⁰ Thus says Adonay Yah Veh; and so be it, at the same time, words ascend into your heart and you fabricate an evil fabrication: ¹¹ and you say, I ascend to the land of suburbs; I go to them who rest - who settle confidently; all of them settling without walls and having neither bars nor doors; ¹² to spoil a spoil and to plunder a plunder - to turn your hand on the parched areas now inhabited, and on the people gathered from the goyim, who work chattel and who chattel - who settle on the summit of the land. ¹³ Sheba and Dedan and the merchants of Tarshish with all their whelps, say to you, Come you to spoil a spoil? To congregate your congregation to plunder a plunder? To bear away silver and gold? To take away chattel and to chattel? To spoil a great spoil? ¹⁴ So, son of humanity, prophesy and say to Gog, Thus says Adonay Yah Veh: In that day, when my people of Yisra El settle confidently, know you not thereof? ¹⁵ And you come from your place - from the north flanks - you and many people with you; all of them riding on horses; a great congregation and great valiant: ¹⁶ and you ascend against my people of Yisra El as a cloud to cover the land; and so be it in the latter days, I bring you against my land, so that the goyim know me when I am hallowed in you, O Gog, in front of their eyes.

¹¹ Hurry and come, all you goyim! And gather yourselves together all around: and there have your mighty ones descend, O Yah Veh. ¹² Waken, O goyim; and ascend to Gay Yah Shaphat/Valley Yah Judges: for there I sit to judge all the goyim all around. ¹³ Spread the sickle; for the harvest ripens: come, descend; for the winepress fills: the troughs overflow; for their evil is great. ¹⁴ Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision: for the day of Yah Veh is near in the valley of decision.

¹⁰ And Mosheh says to Yah Veh, O my Adonay, I am not a man of words - neither for three yesters ago nor since you have worded to your servant: but I am heavy of mouth and heavy of tongue. ¹¹ And Yah Veh says to him, Who set the human mouth? Or who set the mute, or deaf, or the open-eyed, or the blind? Have not I -Yah Veh? ¹² Now go and I - I am with your mouth and direct you what to word. ¹³ And he says, O my Adonay, send, I beseech you, by the hand of him whom you send. ¹⁴ And the wrath of Yah Veh kindles against Mosheh, and he says, Is not Aharon the Leviy your brother? I know that in wording, he words well: and also, behold, he comes to meet you: and when he sees you, he cheers in his heart.

³⁰ but he observes the mighty wind, and he awes; and beginning to submerge, he cries, wording, Adonay, save me! ³¹ And straightway Yah Shua spreads his hand, and takes hold of him, and words to him, O you of little trust! Why doubt you?

¹⁴ And Yah Veh kindles his wrath against Yisra El and he gives them into the hands of plunderers who plunder them; and he sells them into the hands of their enemies all around, so that they cannot stand at the face of their enemies.

¹⁷ And Sisera flees on his feet to the tent of Yael the woman of Heber the Qayiniy: for there is shalom between Yabyn the sovereign of Hasor and between the house of Heber the Qayiniy. ¹⁸ And Yael goes to meet Sisera, and says to him, Turn in, my adoni, turn in to me; awe not. - and he turns in to her into the tent and she covers him with a blanket. ¹⁹ And he says to her, Give me, I beseech you, a little water to drink, for I thirst. - and she opens a skin of milk and gives him drink and covers him. ²⁰ Again he says to her, Stand in the opening of the tent, and so be it, when any man comes and asks of you, and says, Is there any man here? that you say, No. ²¹ Then Yael, the woman of Heber, takes a tent stake and sets a hammer in her hand and goes quietly to him and stakes the stake into his temples and drives it into the earth: for he is sound asleep and flutters: and thus he dies. ²² And behold, as Baraq pursues Sisera, Yael goes to meet him and says to him, Come! See the man you seek! And he comes into her, and behold, Sisera - fallen and dead - and the stake in his temples.

²⁴ Blessed - above women - Yael the woman of Heber the Qayiniy, blessed - above women in the tent. ²⁵ He asks water and she gives milk; she approaches with butter in a mighty bason; ²⁶ she spreads her hand to the stake and her right to the hammer of the toiler; she hammers Sisera; she crushes his head; she strikes and passes through his temples. ²⁷ Between her feet he bowed; he fell; he layed: between her feet he bowed, he fell: where he bowed, there he fell ravaged.

⁵⁴ And he quickly calls to his instrument bearer lad and says to him, Draw your sword and deathify me - that men not say of me, A women slaughtered him. And his lad stabs him through and he dies:

³⁰ So - an oracle of Yah Veh Elohim of Yisra El In saying, I say, that your house and the house of your father walk at my face eternally: and now - an oracle of Yah Veh far be it from me; for they who honor me, I honor; and they who despise me, I abase.

²¹ the word is not thus: but a man of mount Ephrayim Sheba the son of Bichri by name lifts his hand against the sovereign - against David: give him only, and I go from the city. And the woman says to Yah Ab, Behold, his head - thrown to you through the wall. ²² - and in her wisdom the woman goes to all the people; and they cut off the head of Sheba the son of Bichri and cast it to Yah Ab. And he blasts a shophar and they scatter from the city - every man to his tent: and Yah Ab returns to Yeru Shalem to the sovereign.

¹⁸ and they withstand Uzzi Yah the sovereign and say to him, This becomes you not, Uzzi Yah, to incense to Yah Veh: but only to the priests, the sons of Aharon, who are hallowed to incense: go from the holies; for you treason; it is not for your honor from Yah Veh Elohim.

⁸ and all your servants descend to me and prostrate to me, saying, You and all the people at your feet, Get out! and after that I go out. - and he goes out from Paroh in a fuming wrath.

⁶ And she sends and calls Baraq the son of Abi Noam from Kedesh Naphtali and says to him, Misvahs not Yah Veh Elohim of Yisra El, Go and draw toward mount Tabor and take with you ten thousand men of the sons of Naphtali and of the sons of Zebulun?

¹⁵ And the governors of Yissachar are with Deborah; as Yissachar, thus Baraq - sent on foot into the valley. As for the divisions of Reu Ben great are the statutes of heart.

¹⁸ Zebulun and Naphtali are a people exposed - to reproach their souls - to die in the high places of the field.

²⁷ and now this blessing which your maid brings to my adoni, may it even be given to the lads who walk at the feet of my adoni:

¹¹ And the sovereign of Yisra El answers and says, Word to him, He who girds halals not as he who loosens.

¹⁸ And they come to Reu El their father, and he says, How is it that you hasten to come today?

THE BURNING BUSH
And Mosheh tends the flock of Yithro his in law the priest of Midyan: and he drives the flock to the backside of the wilderness and comes to the mountain of Elohim - to Horeb.

¹
\ul PRIEST YITHRO ADVISES MOSHEH ul0 And Yithro, priest of Midyan, in law of Mosheh hears of all Elohim worked for Mosheh and for Yisra El his people - that Yah Veh brought Yisra El from Misrayim:

²⁹ And Mosheh says to Hobab the son of Reu El the Midyaniy, in law of Mosheh, We pull stakes to the place of which Yah Veh said, I give it you: come with us and we do you good: for Yah Veh worded good concerning Yisra El.

ORACLE OF BILAM TO THE QAYINIY
And he sees the Qayiniy and lifts his proverb and says, Perennial, your settlement and your nest, set in a rock:

³³ and their border is from Heleph; from Allon to Saanannim and Adami Neqeb and Yabne El to Laqqum; and the exits are at Yarden:

¹⁶ And the sons of the Qayiniy, father in law of Mosheh, ascend from Ir Hat Temarim with the sons of Yah Hudah into the wilderness of Yah Hudah in the south of Arad; and they come and settle among the people.

¹² and turns from Sarid eastward toward the rising sun to the border of Kisloth Tabor; and then goes to Daberath and ascends to Yaphia;

³⁴ and the border turns seaward to Aznoth Tabor and goes from thence to Huqqoq and reaches to Zebulun on the south; and reaches to Asher on the sea; and to Yah Hudah on Yarden toward the rising sun:

² and Yah Veh sells them into the hand of Yabyn sovereign of Kenaan, who reigns in Hasor - Sisera is governor of his host - who settles by Harosheth/Engravers of the Goyim. ³ And the sons of Yisra El cry to Yah Veh: for he has nine hundred chariots of iron; and he strongly oppresses the sons of Yisra El twenty years.

⁷ and I draw the governor of the host of Yabyn to you - with his chariots and his multitude at the wadi Qishon Sisera; and I give him into your hand.

¹⁴ And Lot goes and words to his in laws who took his daughters, and says, Rise, get from this place: for Yah Veh ruins this city! - but he seems as one who ridicules in the eyes of his in laws.

⁴ and when they go from the city, not yet far removed, Yoseph says to his house steward, Rise! Pursue after the men! And when you overtake them, say to them, Why shalam you evil for good?

³ And know this day, Yah Veh your Elohim - he passes over at your face; as a consuming fire he desolates them and he subdues them at your face: thus you dispossess them and destroy them suddenly, as Yah Veh worded to you.

¹³ Rise, hallow the people, and say, Hallow yourselves against tomorrow: for thus says Yah Veh Elohim of Yisra El, A devotement is in your midst, O Yisra El: you cannot rise at the face of your enemies, until you turn aside the devotement among you.

²⁸ And he says to her, Rise and we go. - and there is no answer. And the man takes her on a he burro and the man rises and goes to his place:

²⁶ and they start early, and so be it, about the ascent of the dawn, Shemu El calls Shaul to the roof, saying, Rise, and I send you away. - and Shaul rises and they both go out - he and Shemu El - out.

²⁴ and so be it, when you hear the voice of marching in the tops of the weepers, then you point: for then Yah Veh goes at your face, to smite the camp of the Peleshethiy.

⁷ O Elohim; as you come at the face of your people, as you pace them through the desolation; Selah. ⁸ The earth quakes; yes, the heavens drop at the face of Elohim; thus also Sinay at the face of Elohim, O Elohim of Ysra El.

¹² For you neither go in haste nor come in retreat: for Yah Veh goes at your face; and Elohim of Yisra El gathers you.

¹³ The separater ascends at their face: they separate and pass through the portal; yes, they go through it: and their sovereign passes at their face, and Yah Veh at their head.

¹⁰ and Yah Veh agitates them at the face of Yisra El and smites them with a great stroke at Gibon; and pursues them along the way of the ascent of Beth Horon and smites them to Azeqah and to Maqqedah.

²⁰ They fight from the heavens; the stars in their highways fight against Sisera. ²¹ The wadi of Qishon bears them away - that ancient wadi - the wadi Qishon. O my soul, you tread down strength.

⁶ for Adonay has the camp of the Aramiy hear a voice of chariots and a voice of horses - the voice of a great valiant. And they say man to brother, Behold, the sovereign of Yisra El hires against us the sovereigns of the Hethiy and the sovereigns of the Misrayim to come against us.

¹⁵ and the Yah Hudiy give a shout: and the Yah Hudiy shout, and so be it, Elohim smites Yarob Am and all Yisra El at the face of Abi Yah and Yah Hudah: ¹⁶ and the sons of Yisra El flee the face of Yah Hudah: and Elohim gives them into their hand; ¹⁷ and Abi Yah and his people smite them with a great stroke: so there fall down, pierced of Yisra El, five hundred thousand chosen men.

⁷ And you pursue your enemies and they fall by the sword at your face: ⁸ and five of you pursue a hundred and a hundred of you pursue a myriad; and your enemies fall by the sword at your face.

¹⁹ and you stay not; but pursue your enemies and curtail them; give them not to enter into their cities: for Yah Veh your Elohim gives them into your hand. ²⁰ And so be it, Yah Shua and the sons of Yisra El finish them off with a mighty great stroke until they are consumed; and the surviving survivors enter into fortified cities:

⁸ and Yah Veh gives them into the hand of Yisra El who smites them and pursues them to great Sidon and to Misrephoth Mayim and to the valley of Mispeh from the rising; they smite them until no survivors survive:

³⁵ The sinners are consumed from the earth and the wicked are no more. Bless you Yah Veh, O my soul. Halalu Yah.

¹⁷ who brings forth the chariot and horse, the valiant and the strong; they lie down together, they rise not: they are extinguished; they are quenched as flax.

¹² For as many as sin without torah also destruct without torah: and as many as sin in torah are judged through torah; ¹³ For whoever deals no mercy has unmercied judgment; and mercy exults against judgment.

⁶ In the days of Shamgar the son of Anath, in the days of Yael, the highways are abandoned and the walkers of paths walk through crooked ways.

²⁴ Blessed - above women - Yael the woman of Heber the Qayiniy, blessed - above women in the tent.

¹⁹ he walks priests away stripped and perverts the perennial; ²⁰ he turns aside the lip of the trustworthy and takes away the taste of the aged; ²¹ he pours disrespect on volunteers and loosens the girdle of the gatherers;

⁷ the paces of his strength constrict and his own counsel casts him down. ⁸ For he is sent into a net by his own feet and he walks on a netting; ⁹ the snare holds him by the heel and the robber prevails against him; ¹⁰ his cord is hidden in the earth - his trap in the path. ¹¹ Terrors frighten him all around and scatter him to his feet; ¹² his strength famishes and calamity prepares at his side.

¹¹ scatter the fury of your wrath; see everyone who is pompous and abase him; ¹² see everyone who is pompous and subdue him; and trample the wicked in their place:

³⁵ I saw the wicked tyrant stripped naked as a green native; ³⁶ yet he passes away; and behold, he is not; yes, I seek him, but find him not.

²² Their table becomes a snare at their face - a snare for their shalom:

⁴⁰ he pours disrespect on volunteers to stray in the way where there is no way:

²³ The pomp of humanity abases; and honor upholds the abased in spirit.

²¹ There is no shalom, says my Elohim, to the wicked.

¹⁹ - as a man flees the face of a lion and a bear meets him; or goes into the house and props his hand on the wall and a serpent bites him: ²⁰ Is not the day of Yah Veh darkness and not light? - even very dark with no brilliance therein?

¹⁹ And Eli Shua says to them, This is neither the way nor is this the city: come after me, and I walk you to the man you seek. - and he walks them to Shomeron.

⁴³ behold, I station myself by the fountain of water; and so be it, that when the virgin comes to bail and I say to her, Give me, I pray you, a little water from your pitcher to drink;

²⁵ He asks water and she gives milk; she approaches with butter in a mighty bason; ²⁶ she spreads her hand to the stake and her right to the hammer of the toiler; she hammers Sisera; she crushes his head; she strikes and passes through his temples.

¹⁰ So he rises and goes to Sarephath: and he comes to the portal of the city and behold, the widow woman gathers timber: and he calls to her, and says, Take me, I beseech you, a little water in an instrument, to drink.

¹⁷ The humble and needy seek water and there is none; and their tongue dries for thirst and I Yah Veh answer them; I Elohim of Yisra El forsake them not.

⁷ and a woman of Shomeron comes to bail water. Yah Shua words to her, Give me a drink.

³ And the sovereign of Yericho sends to Rachab, saying, Bring the men who came to you who entered your house: for they came to explore all the land. ⁴ And the woman takes the two men, and hides them, and says thus, Men came to me, but I know not whence: ⁵ and so be it, at the shutting of the portal, at dark, the men went: where the men went, I know not: pursue after them hastily and overtake them.

²⁰ And when the servants of Abi Shalom come to the house of the woman, they say, Where are Achiy Maas and Yah Nathan? And the woman says to them, They pass over the streamlet of water. - and they seek and cannot find them and they return to Yeru Shalem.

²¹ And Ehud sends his left and takes the sword from his right flank and stakes it into his belly:

³¹
SHAMGAR
And after him, Shamgar the son of Anath, who smites six hundred men of the Peleshethiy with an ox goad: and he also saves Yisra El.

¹⁵ and he finds a fresh jaw of a he burro and sends forth his hand and takes it and smites a thousand men therewith.

⁴³ And the Peleshethiy says to David, Am I a dog, that you come to me with staves? - and the Peleshethiy belittles David by his elohim.

⁴⁹ and David spreads his hand in his instrument and he takes a stone from it and slings it and smites the Peleshethiy in his forehead so that the stone sinks into his forehead; and he falls on his face to the earth. ⁵⁰ And David prevails over the Peleshethiy with a sling and with a stone and smites the Peleshethiy and deathifies him; and there is no sword in the hand of David:

⁷ Rise, O Yah Veh! Save me, O my Elohim! For you have smitten all my enemies on the cheek bone; you broke the teeth of the wicked.

¹⁹ For it is scribed, I destroy the wisdom of the wise and set aside the comprehension of the comprehending. ^{Isaiah 29:14}

²⁷ But Elohim selects the foolish of the cosmos to shame the wise; and Elohim selects the frailties of the cosmos to shame the mighty;

³ and I return all the people to you - return the man you seek and all: - all the people being in shalom.

¹⁰ and he who also is the son of valour whose heart is as the heart of a lion, in melting, he melts: for all Yisra El knows that your father is mighty and they with him are sons of valour. ¹¹ So I counsel, that in gathering, all Yisra El gathers to you - from Dan even to Beer Sheba, as the sand by the sea for abundance; and that you go to war by yourself: ¹² and we come upon him in one of the places where we find him; and we light on him as the dew falls on the soil: and of him and of all the men with him not even one remains: ¹³ and if he gathers into a city, then all Yisra El bears lines to that city and we drag it into the wadi, until they find not even a bundle there. ¹⁴ And Abi Shalom and all the men of Yisra El say, The counsel of Hushay the Arkiy is better than the counsel of Achiy Thophel: and Yah Veh misvahs to break down the good counsel of Achiy Thophel, so that Yah Veh brings evil on Abi Shalom. ¹⁵ Then Hushay says to Sadoq and to Abi Athar the priests, Achiy Thophel counsels thus and thus and Abi Shalom and the elders of Yisra El; and I counsel thus and thus:

¹⁸ Is not Yah Veh your Elohim with you? And has he not given you rest all around? For he gives the settlers of the land into my hand; and the land subdues at the face of Yah Veh and at the face of his people.

²⁴ and the sons came in and possessed the land and you subdued at their face the settlers of the land - the Kenaaniy and gave them into their hands - with their sovereigns and the people of the land - to work with them as they pleased:

³⁹ For you girt me with valour to the war; you knuckle them under who rise:

⁴⁷ El gives me vengeance - subdues all the people under me.

³ he subdues the people under us and the nations under our feet:

¹⁴ then had I shortly subdued their enemies and turned my hand against their tribulators.

²⁸ And when all subjugates to him then the Son himself also subjugates to him who subjugated all under him that Elohim be all in all.

³³ - who through trust: subdued sovereigndoms, worked justness, obtained pre-evangelisms, sealed the mouths of lions,

¹² In that day I raise against Eli all whom I worded concerning his house - begin, and finish:
