This here set down, is the third speech that Debora used to Barak, and that 1at mount Tabor: and though the last, yet not the least, but mighty, forcible, and in due season. For it appeareth by the text, that when Barak saw Siseras huge army, he was dismayed, and therefore sought the fittest place about mount Tabor, and the furest, to shroud himself in, from the violence and rage of Sisera. Which fainting of his, she perceiving, called him back, and stirred him up to fight, by her words and persuasions, saying, No power of man how great and fearful soever, shall be able to hinder thee from obtaining the victory, which the Lord hath purposed to give thee this day. At which speech of hers he was animated, and took heart, and went to the battle, and, as we have heard, prevailed.
