اَلْقُضَاة 5
| فَتَرَنَّمَتْ دَبُورَةُ وَبَارَاقُ بْنُ أَبِينُوعَمَ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ قَائِلَيْنِ: | ١ 1 |
In that day, Deborah and Barak, the son of Abinoam, sang out, saying:
| «لِأَجْلِ قِيَادَةِ ٱلْقُوَّادِ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، لِأَجْلِ ٱنْتِدَابِ ٱلشَّعْبِ، بَارِكُوا ٱلرَّبَّ. | ٢ 2 |
“All you of Israel who have willingly offered your lives to danger, bless the Lord!
| اِسْمَعُوا أَيُّهَا ٱلْمُلُوكُ وَٱصْغَوْا أَيُّهَا ٱلْعُظَمَاءُ. أَنَا، أَنَا لِلرَّبِّ أَتَرَنَّمُ. أُزَمِّرُ لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٣ 3 |
Listen, O kings! Pay attention, O princes! It is I, it is I, who will sing to the Lord. I will sing a psalm to the Lord, the God of Israel!
| يَارَبُّ بِخُرُوجِكَ مِنْ سِعِيرَ، بِصُعُودِكَ مِنْ صَحْرَاءِ أَدُومَ، ٱلْأَرْضُ ٱرْتَعَدَتِ. ٱلسَّمَاوَاتُ أَيْضًا قَطَرَتْ. كَذَلِكَ ٱلسُّحُبُ قَطَرَتْ مَاءً. | ٤ 4 |
O Lord, when you departed from Seir, and you crossed through the regions of Edom, the earth and the heavens were moved, and the clouds rained down water.
| تَزَلْزَلَتِ ٱلْجِبَالُ مِنْ وَجْهِ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَسِينَاءُ هَذَا مِنْ وَجْهِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٥ 5 |
The mountains flowed away before the face of the Lord, and Sinai, before the face of the Lord God of Israel.
| «فِي أَيَّامِ شَمْجَرَ بْنِ عَنَاةَ، فِي أَيَّامِ يَاعِيلَ، ٱسْتَرَاحَتِ ٱلطُّرُقُ، وَعَابِرُو ٱلسُّبُلِ سَارُوا فِي مَسَالِكَ مُعْوَجَّةٍ. | ٦ 6 |
In the days of Shamgar, the son of Anath, in the days of Jael, the paths were quiet. And whoever entered by them, walked along rough byways.
| خُذِلَ ٱلْحُكَّامُ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. خُذِلُوا حَتَّى قُمْتُ أَنَا دَبُورَةُ. قُمْتُ أُمًّا فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٧ 7 |
The strong men ceased, and they rested in Israel, until Deborah rose up, until a mother rose up in Israel.
| اِخْتَارَ آلِهَةً حَدِيثَةً. حِينَئِذٍ حَرْبُ ٱلْأَبْوَابِ. هَلْ كَانَ يُرَى مِجَنٌّ أَوْ رُمْحٌ فِي أَرْبَعِينَ أَلْفًا مِنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ؟ | ٨ 8 |
The Lord chose new wars, and he himself overturned the gates of the enemies. A shield with a spear was not seen among the forty thousand of Israel.
| قَلْبِي نَحْوَ قُضَاةِ إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلْمُنْتَدِبِينَ فِي ٱلشَّعْبِ. بَارِكُوا ٱلرَّبَّ. | ٩ 9 |
My heart loves the leaders of Israel. All you who, of your own free will, offered yourselves during a crisis, bless the Lord.
| أَيُّهَا ٱلرَّاكِبُونَ ٱلْأُتُنَ ٱلصُّحْرَ، ٱلْجَالِسُونَ عَلَى طَنَافِسَ، وَٱلسَّالِكُونَ فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ، سَبِّحُوا! | ١٠ 10 |
You who ride upon donkeys laboring, and you who sit in judgment, and you who walk along the way, speak out.
| مِنْ صَوْتِ ٱلْمُحَاصِّينَ بَيْنَ ٱلْأَحْوَاضِ هُنَاكَ يُثْنُونَ عَلَى حَقِّ ٱلرَّبِّ، حَقِّ حُكَّامِهِ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. حِينَئِذٍ نَزَلَ شَعْبُ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَى ٱلْأَبْوَابِ. | ١١ 11 |
Where the chariots were struck together, and the army of the enemies was choked, in that place, let the justices of the Lord be described, and let his clemency be for the brave of Israel. Then did the people of the Lord descend to the gates, and obtain leadership.
| «اِسْتَيْقِظِي، ٱسْتَيْقِظِي يَا دَبُورَةُ! ٱسْتَيْقِظِي، ٱسْتَيْقِظِي وَتَكَلَّمِي بِنَشِيدٍ! قُمْ يَا بَارَاقُ وَٱسْبِ سَبْيَكَ، يَا ٱبْنَ أَبِينُوعَمَ! | ١٢ 12 |
Rise up, rise up, O Deborah! Rise up, rise up, and speak a canticle! Rise up, Barak, and seize your captives, O son of Abinoam.
| حِينَئِذٍ تَسَلَّطَ ٱلشَّارِدُ عَلَى عُظَمَاءِ ٱلشَّعْبِ. ٱلرَّبُّ سَلَّطَنِي عَلَى ٱلْجَبَابِرَةِ. | ١٣ 13 |
The remnants of the people were saved. The Lord contended with the strong.
| جَاءَ مِنْ أَفْرَايِمَ ٱلَّذِينَ مَقَرُّهُمْ بَيْنَ عَمَالِيقَ، وَبَعْدَكَ بَنْيَامِينُ مَعَ قَوْمِكَ. مِنْ مَاكِيرَ نَزَلَ قُضَاةٌ، وَمِنْ زَبُولُونَ مَاسِكُونَ بِقَضِيبِ ٱلْقَائِدِ. | ١٤ 14 |
Out of Ephraim, he destroyed those with Amalek, and after him, out of Benjamin, those of your people, O Amalek. From Machir, there descended leaders, and from Zebulun, those who led the army to war.
| وَٱلرُّؤَسَاءُ فِي يَسَّاكَرَ مَعَ دَبُورَةَ. وَكَمَا يَسَّاكَرُ هَكَذَا بَارَاقُ. اِنْدَفَعَ إِلَى ٱلْوَادِي وَرَاءَهُ. عَلَى مَسَاقِي رَأُوبَيْنَ أَقْضِيَةُ قَلْبٍ عَظِيمَةٌ. | ١٥ 15 |
The commanders of Issachar were with Deborah, and they followed the steps of Barak, who endangered himself, like one rushing headlong into a chasm. Reuben was divided against himself. Contention was found among great souls.
| لِمَاذَا أَقَمْتَ بَيْنَ ٱلْحَظَائِرِ لِسَمْعِ ٱلصَّفِيرِ لِلْقُطْعَانِ. لَدَى مَسَاقِي رَأُوبَيْنَ مَبَاحِثُ قَلْبٍ عَظِيمَةٌ. | ١٦ 16 |
Why do you live between two borders, so that you hear the bleating of the flocks? Reuben was divided against himself. Contention was found among great souls.
| جِلْعَادُ فِي عَبْرِ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ سَكَنَ. وَدَانُ، لِمَاذَا ٱسْتَوْطَنَ لَدَى ٱلسُّفُنِ؟ وَأَشِيرُ أَقَامَ عَلَى سَاحِلِ ٱلْبَحْرِ، وَفِي فُرَضِهِ سَكَنَ. | ١٧ 17 |
Gilead rested beyond the Jordan, and Dan was occupied with ships. Asher was living on the shore of the sea, and dwelling in the ports.
| زَبُولُونُ شَعْبٌ أَهَانَ نَفْسَهُ إِلَى ٱلْمَوْتِ مَعَ نَفْتَالِي عَلَى رَوَابِي ٱلْحَقْلِ. | ١٨ 18 |
Yet truly, Zebulun and Naphtali offered their lives to death in the region of Merom.
| «جَاءَ مُلُوكٌ. حَارَبُوا. حِينَئِذٍ حَارَبَ مُلُوكُ كَنْعَانَ فِي تَعْنَكَ عَلَى مِيَاهِ مَجِدُّو. بِضْعَ فِضَّةٍ لَمْ يَأْخُذُوا. | ١٩ 19 |
The kings came and fought; the kings of Canaan fought at Taanach, beside the waters of Megiddo. And yet they took no spoils.
| مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ حَارَبُوا. ٱلْكَوَاكِبُ مِنْ حُبُكِهَا حَارَبَتْ سِيسَرَا. | ٢٠ 20 |
The conflict against them was from heaven. The stars, remaining in their order and courses, fought against Sisera.
| نَهْرُ قِيشُونَ جَرَفَهُمْ. نَهْرُ وَقَائِعَ نَهْرُ قِيشُونَ. دُوسِي يَا نَفْسِي بِعِزٍّ. | ٢١ 21 |
The torrent of Kishon dragged away their carcasses, the onrushing torrent, the torrent of Kishon. O my soul, tread upon the stalwart!
| «حِينَئِذٍ ضَرَبَتْ أَعْقَابُ ٱلْخَيْلِ مِنَ ٱلسَّوْقِ، سَوْقِ أَقْوِيَائِهِ. | ٢٢ 22 |
The hoofs of the horses were broken, while the strongest of the enemies fled away with fury, and rushed on to ruin.
| اِلْعَنُوا مِيرُوزَ قَالَ مَلَاكُ ٱلرَّبِّ. اِلْعَنُوا سَاكِنِيهَا لَعْنًا، لِأَنَّهُمْ لَمْ يَأْتُوا لِمَعُونَةِ ٱلرَّبِّ، مَعُونَةِ ٱلرَّبِّ بَيْنَ ٱلْجَبَابِرَةِ. | ٢٣ 23 |
‘Cursed be the land of Meroz!’ said the Angel of the Lord. ‘Cursed be its inhabitants! For they did not come to the aid of the Lord, to the assistance of his most valiant men.’
| تُبَارَكُ عَلَى ٱلنِّسَاءِ يَاعِيلُ ٱمْرَأَةُ حَابِرَ ٱلْقَيْنِيِّ. عَلَى ٱلنِّسَاءِ فِي ٱلْخِيَامِ تُبَارَكُ. | ٢٤ 24 |
Blessed among women is Jael, the wife of Heber the Kenite. And blessed is she in her tabernacle.
| طَلَبَ مَاءً فَأَعْطَتْهُ لَبَنًا. فِي قَصْعَةِ ٱلْعُظَمَاءِ قَدَّمَتْ زُبْدَةً. | ٢٥ 25 |
He begged her for water, and she gave him milk, and she offered him butter in a dish fit for princes.
| مَدَّتْ يَدَهَا إِلَى ٱلْوَتَدِ، وَيَمِينَهَا إِلَى مِضْرَابِ ٱلْعَمَلَةِ، وَضَرَبَتْ سِيسَرَا وَسَحَقَتْ رَأْسَهُ، شَدَّخَتْ وَخَرَّقَتْ صُدْغَهُ. | ٢٦ 26 |
She put her left hand to the nail, and her right hand to the workman’s mallet. And she struck Sisera, seeking in his head a place for the wound, and strongly piercing his temples.
| بَيْنَ رِجْلَيْهَا ٱنْطَرَحَ، سَقَطَ، ٱضْطَجَعَ. بَيْنَ رِجْلَيْهَا ٱنْطَرَحَ، سَقَطَ. حَيْثُ ٱنْطَرَحَ فَهُنَاكَ سَقَطَ مَقْتُولًا. | ٢٧ 27 |
Between her feet, he was ruined. He fainted away and passed on. He curled up before her feet, and he lay there lifeless and miserable.
| مِنَ ٱلْكُوَّةِ أَشْرَفَتْ وَوَلْوَلَتْ أُمُّ سِيسَرَا مِنَ ٱلشُّبَّاكِ: لِمَاذَا أَبْطَأَتْ مَرْكَبَاتُهُ عَنِ ٱلْمَجِيءِ؟ لِمَاذَا تَأَخَّرَتْ خَطَوَاتُ مَرَاكِبِهِ؟ | ٢٨ 28 |
His mother gazed through a window and wailed. And she spoke from an upper room: ‘Why does his chariot delay in returning? Why are the feet of his team of horses so slow?’
| فَأَجَابَتْهَا أَحْكَمُ سَيِّدَاتِهَا، بَلْ هِيَ رَدَّتْ جَوَابًا لِنَفْسِهَا: | ٢٩ 29 |
One who was wiser than the rest of his wives responded to her mother-in-law with this:
| أَلَمْ يَجِدُوا وَيَقْسِمُوا ٱلْغَنِيمَةَ! فَتَاةً أَوْ فَتَاتَيْنِ لِكُلِّ رَجُلٍ! غَنِيمَةَ ثِيَابٍ مَصْبُوغَةٍ لِسِيسَرَا! غَنِيمَةَ ثِيَابٍ مَصْبُوغَةٍ مُطَرَّزَةٍ! ثِيَابٍ مَصْبُوغَةٍ مُطَرَّزَةِ ٱلْوَجْهَيْنِ غَنِيمَةً لِعُنُقِي! | ٣٠ 30 |
‘Perhaps he is now dividing the spoils, and the most beautiful among the women is being selected for him. Garments of diverse colors are being delivered to Sisera as spoils, and various goods are being collected for the adornment of necks.’
| هَكَذَا يَبِيدُ جَمِيعُ أَعْدَائِكَ يَارَبُّ. وَأَحِبَّاؤُهُ كَخُرُوجِ ٱلشَّمْسِ فِي جَبَرُوتِهَا». وَٱسْتَرَاحَتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ أَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً. | ٣١ 31 |
O Lord, so may all your enemies perish! But may those who love you shine with splendor, as the sun shines at its rising.” And the land rested for forty years.
