The original Hebrew name (Devorah) is pronounced de-VOR-ah (or d-VOR-ah, the "e" is not pronounced very much), so de-BOR-ah is the closest pronunciation to the original. DEB-ra is a more modern pronunciation, just as Debra is a more modern way to spell the name, but both are "correct".

I say de-BOR-ah, but then I prefer Devorah as a name anyway.
