1 But the sons of Israel did evil again in the sight of the Lord when Ehud was dead.
2 And the Lord sold them into the hand of Jabin, king of Canaan, who reigned in Hazor, the captain of whose host was Sisera, and he dwelt in Harosheth of the Gentiles.
3 And the sons of Israel cried unto the Lord, for he had nine hundred chariots of iron, and he had mightily oppressed the sons of Israel for twenty years.
4 And a woman judged Israel at that time, Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lapidoth.
5 This Deborah dwelt under a palm tree between Ramah and Bethel in Mount Ephraim, and the sons of Israel came up to her for judgment.
