The song is using the term righteous to describe the victory that Yahweh and his peasantry (the volunteer soldiers) won over Sisera. This is by association with the fact that it was wrong for Jabin to oppress the Israelites, and so by defeating him, the victors restored a situation that was right or righteous. Alternate translation: [what Yahweh and his peasantry in Israel did to restore a right situation]
