“And I will draw unto thee to the river Kishon Sisera, the captain of Jabin’s army, with his chariots and his multitude; and I will deliver him into thine hand.”
I will draw out Sisera, the commander of Jabin's army, to meet you by the Wadi Kishon with his chariots and his troops; and I will give him into your hand.' — Deborah's prophecy ('I will draw out Sisera... I will give him into your hand') invokes the salvation formula, assuring Barak of divine victory. The mechanism—'to meet you by the Wadi Kishon'—identifies the battle location where topography would disadvantage Sisera's chariotry. The term 'give him into your hand' employs covenant language, indicating God's direct intervention in military victory.
