Judg. 5:2 in context
The whole interlinear chapter
Judg. 5:1      Judg. 5:3

Judges 5:2

When the leaders (Hebr. parot) let their hair grow (Hebr. parot) [become a Nazirite; take their leadership seriously] in Israel,
when the people sacrifice themselves voluntarily
– bless the Lord (Yahweh).
[The repetition of the Hebrew word parot reinforces, and can be translated as "when the leaders of Israel take up their leadership," i.e., take their leadership seriously, or refer to those who let their hair grow, which means that they choose to enter a period as Nazirites. The latter is a voluntary sacrifice, which fits well into the context of the rest of the sentence. At the same time, there is a double message here that deals with both responsible leadership and that they become, or behave like, Nazirites. That is, that they truly, both voluntarily and seriously, enter into what God wants.]
