King James Bible - Judges 4:9

And she said, I will surely go with thee: notwithstanding the journey that thou takest shall not be for thine honour; for the LORD shall sell Sisera into the hand of a woman. And Deborah arose, and went with Barak to Kedesh.

World English Bible

She said, "I will surely go with you: nevertheless, the journey that you take shall not be for your honor; for Yahweh will sell Sisera into the hand of a woman." Deborah arose, and went with Barak to Kedesh.

Douay-Rheims - Judges 4:9

She said to him: I will go indeed with thee, but at this time the victory shall not be attributed to thee, because Sisara shall be delivered into the hand of a woman. Debbora therefore arose, and went with Barac to Cedes.

Webster's Bible Translation

And she said, I will surely go with thee: notwithstanding the journey that thou takest shall not be for thy honor; for the LORD will sell Sisera into the hand of a woman. And Deborah arose, and went with Barak to Kedesh.

SEV Biblia, Chapter 4:9

Y ella dijo: Iré contigo; mas no será tu honra en el camino que vas; porque en mano de mujer venderá el SEŃOR a Sísara. Y levantándose Débora fue con Barac a Cedes.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Judges 4:9

Verse 9. The
Lord shall sell Sisera into the hand of a woman.] Does not this mean, If I go with thee, the conquest shall be attributed to me, and thou wilt have no honour? Or, is it a prediction of the exploit of Jael? In both these senses the words have been understood. It seems, however, more likely that Jael is intended. The Septuagint made a remarkable addition to the speech of Barak: "If thou wilt go with me I will go; but if thou wilt not go with me, I will not go; Ćoti ouk oida thn hmeran en h euodoi kuriov ton aggelon metĆ emou, because I know not the day in which the Lord will send his angel to give me success." By which he appears to mean, that although he was certain of a Divine call to this work, yet, as he knew not the time in which it would be proper for him to make the attack, he wishes that Deborah, on whom the Divine Spirit constantly rested, would accompany him to let him know when to strike that blow, which he knew would be decisive. This was quite natural, and quite reasonable, and is no impeachment whatever of Barak's faith. St. Ambrose and St. Augustine have the same reading; but it is found in no MS. nor in any other of the versions. See ver. 14.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 9. And she said, I will surely go with thee , She made no hesitation about it, but agreed at once to go with him for his encouragement; perceiving some degree of
weakness in him, and yet an hearty and sincere inclination to engage in the work proposed, and that this might be no hinderance, she readily assents to it: adding, notwithstanding the journey thou takest ; the way or course he steered, the methods he took in insisting on it that she should go with him: shall not be for thine honour ; as a general of an army, who is commonly solicitous to have the whole glory of an action: for the Lord shall sell Sisera into the hand of a woman ; meaning either herself, for she being judge of Israel, and going along with him, would have the glory of the victory ascribed to her, as usually is to the principal person in the army; and so it would be said in future time, that the Lord delivered Sisera and his army, not into the hand of Barak, but into the hand of Deborah, whereby he would not have all the honour which otherwise he would have, if she went not with him; or else Jael, Heber’s wife, is meant, into whose hands Sisera did fall, and by whom he was slain; but this seems to have no connection with Deborah’s going or not going with him, it did not depend upon that one way or another; unless it can be thought that thus it was ordered in Providence as a rebuke of his diffidence and weakness, that because he would not go without a woman, Sisera should fall not into his hands, but into the hands of a woman; and if so, this is a clear instance of Deborah’s having a spirit of prophecy, and of a prediction of a future contingent event: and Deborah arose, and went with Barak to Kedesh ; that is, they went together from the palm tree between Ramah and Bethel in Mount Ephraim, to Kedesh in Mount Naphtali, in order to raise the ten thousand men that were to fight with Sisera.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 4-9 -
Deborah was a prophetess; one instructed in Divine knowledge by the inspiration of the Spirit of God. She judged Israel as God's mouth to them; correcting abuses, and redressing grievances. By God's direction she ordered Barak to raise an army, and engage Jabin's forces. Bara insisted much upon her presence. Deborah promised to go with him. Sh would not send him where she would not go herself. Those who in God' name call others to their duty, should be ready to assist them in it Barak values the satisfaction of his mind, and the good success of his enterprise, more than mere honour.
