Deborah also went with him.

Now Heba the Kenite, a descendant of Moses' brother-in-law Hobab, had moved away from the other members of his tribe and pitched his tent by the oak of Zananim near Kadesh.

When Sisera was told that Barak, son of Abinoam, had gone up to Mount Tabor, she called for all 900 of his iron chariots and all of his warriors and they marched from Harasheth Haggaiim to the Kishon River.

Then Deborah said to Barak, So Barak led his 10,000 warriors down the slopes of Mount Tabor into battle.

Deborah also went up with him.

Now Heber the Kenite had left the other Kenites, the descendants of Hobab, Moses' brother-in-law, and pitched his tent by the great tree in Zananim near Kadesh.

When they told Sisera that Barak, son of Abinoim, had gone up to Mount Tabor, Sisera summoned from Harasheth Hagoyim to the Kishon River all his men and his 900 chariots fitted with iron.

Then Deborah said to Barak, Go, this is the day the Lord has given Sisera into your hands.

How beautifully the principle is expressed in the words of Moses to Hobab in Numbers chapter ten, verse thirty-two.

And it shall be, if thou go with us, yea, if thou go with us, that what goodness the Lord shall do unto us, the same we will do unto them.
