اَلْقُضَاة 5
| فَتَرَنَّمَتْ دَبُورَةُ وَبَارَاقُ بْنُ أَبِينُوعَمَ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ قَائِلَيْنِ: | ١ 1 |
On that day Deborah and Barak son of Abinoam sang this song:
| «لِأَجْلِ قِيَادَةِ ٱلْقُوَّادِ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، لِأَجْلِ ٱنْتِدَابِ ٱلشَّعْبِ، بَارِكُوا ٱلرَّبَّ. | ٢ 2 |
“When the leaders take the lead in Israel, when the people gladly volunteer for war— we praise Yahweh!
| اِسْمَعُوا أَيُّهَا ٱلْمُلُوكُ وَٱصْغَوْا أَيُّهَا ٱلْعُظَمَاءُ. أَنَا، أَنَا لِلرَّبِّ أَتَرَنَّمُ. أُزَمِّرُ لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٣ 3 |
Listen, you kings! Pay attention, you leaders! I, I will sing to Yahweh; I will sing praises to Yahweh, the God of Israel.
| يَارَبُّ بِخُرُوجِكَ مِنْ سِعِيرَ، بِصُعُودِكَ مِنْ صَحْرَاءِ أَدُومَ، ٱلْأَرْضُ ٱرْتَعَدَتِ. ٱلسَّمَاوَاتُ أَيْضًا قَطَرَتْ. كَذَلِكَ ٱلسُّحُبُ قَطَرَتْ مَاءً. | ٤ 4 |
Yahweh, when you went out from Seir, when you marched from Edom, the earth shook, and the skies also trembled; also the clouds poured down water.
| تَزَلْزَلَتِ ٱلْجِبَالُ مِنْ وَجْهِ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَسِينَاءُ هَذَا مِنْ وَجْهِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٥ 5 |
The mountains quaked before the face of Yahweh; even Mount Sinai quaked before the face of Yahweh, the 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 (son of Anath), in the days of Jael, the main roads were abandoned, and those who walked only used the winding paths.
| خُذِلَ ٱلْحُكَّامُ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. خُذِلُوا حَتَّى قُمْتُ أَنَا دَبُورَةُ. قُمْتُ أُمًّا فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ٧ 7 |
There were few rural people in Israel, until I, Deborah, arose—arose as a mother in Israel!
| اِخْتَارَ آلِهَةً حَدِيثَةً. حِينَئِذٍ حَرْبُ ٱلْأَبْوَابِ. هَلْ كَانَ يُرَى مِجَنٌّ أَوْ رُمْحٌ فِي أَرْبَعِينَ أَلْفًا مِنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ؟ | ٨ 8 |
When they chose new gods, there was fighting at the city gates and yet there were no shields or spears seen among forty thousand in Israel.
| قَلْبِي نَحْوَ قُضَاةِ إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلْمُنْتَدِبِينَ فِي ٱلشَّعْبِ. بَارِكُوا ٱلرَّبَّ. | ٩ 9 |
My heart goes out to the commanders of Israel, along with the people who gladly volunteered— we bless Yahweh for them!
| أَيُّهَا ٱلرَّاكِبُونَ ٱلْأُتُنَ ٱلصُّحْرَ، ٱلْجَالِسُونَ عَلَى طَنَافِسَ، وَٱلسَّالِكُونَ فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ، سَبِّحُوا! | ١٠ 10 |
Think about this—you who ride on white donkeys sitting on rugs for saddles, and you who walk along the road.
| مِنْ صَوْتِ ٱلْمُحَاصِّينَ بَيْنَ ٱلْأَحْوَاضِ هُنَاكَ يُثْنُونَ عَلَى حَقِّ ٱلرَّبِّ، حَقِّ حُكَّامِهِ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. حِينَئِذٍ نَزَلَ شَعْبُ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَى ٱلْأَبْوَابِ. | ١١ 11 |
Hear the voices of those who sing at the watering places. There they tell again of Yahweh's righteous deeds, and the righteous actions of his warriors in Israel. Then the people of Yahweh went down to the city gates.
| «اِسْتَيْقِظِي، ٱسْتَيْقِظِي يَا دَبُورَةُ! ٱسْتَيْقِظِي، ٱسْتَيْقِظِي وَتَكَلَّمِي بِنَشِيدٍ! قُمْ يَا بَارَاقُ وَٱسْبِ سَبْيَكَ، يَا ٱبْنَ أَبِينُوعَمَ! | ١٢ 12 |
Awake, awake, Deborah! Awake, awake, sing a song! Get up, Barak, and capture your prisoners, you son of Abinoam.
| حِينَئِذٍ تَسَلَّطَ ٱلشَّارِدُ عَلَى عُظَمَاءِ ٱلشَّعْبِ. ٱلرَّبُّ سَلَّطَنِي عَلَى ٱلْجَبَابِرَةِ. | ١٣ 13 |
Then the survivors came down to the nobles; the people of Yahweh came down to me with the warriors.
| جَاءَ مِنْ أَفْرَايِمَ ٱلَّذِينَ مَقَرُّهُمْ بَيْنَ عَمَالِيقَ، وَبَعْدَكَ بَنْيَامِينُ مَعَ قَوْمِكَ. مِنْ مَاكِيرَ نَزَلَ قُضَاةٌ، وَمِنْ زَبُولُونَ مَاسِكُونَ بِقَضِيبِ ٱلْقَائِدِ. | ١٤ 14 |
They came from Ephraim, whose root is in Amalek; the people of Benjamin followed you. From Machir commanders came down, and from Zebulun those who carry an officer's staff.
| وَٱلرُّؤَسَاءُ فِي يَسَّاكَرَ مَعَ دَبُورَةَ. وَكَمَا يَسَّاكَرُ هَكَذَا بَارَاقُ. اِنْدَفَعَ إِلَى ٱلْوَادِي وَرَاءَهُ. عَلَى مَسَاقِي رَأُوبَيْنَ أَقْضِيَةُ قَلْبٍ عَظِيمَةٌ. | ١٥ 15 |
My princes in Issachar were with Deborah; and Issachar was with Barak rushing after him into the valley under his command. Among the clans of Reuben there were great searchings of heart.
| لِمَاذَا أَقَمْتَ بَيْنَ ٱلْحَظَائِرِ لِسَمْعِ ٱلصَّفِيرِ لِلْقُطْعَانِ. لَدَى مَسَاقِي رَأُوبَيْنَ مَبَاحِثُ قَلْبٍ عَظِيمَةٌ. | ١٦ 16 |
Why did you sit between the fireplaces, listening to the shepherds playing their pipes for their flocks? As for the clans of Reuben there were great searchings of heart.
| جِلْعَادُ فِي عَبْرِ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ سَكَنَ. وَدَانُ، لِمَاذَا ٱسْتَوْطَنَ لَدَى ٱلسُّفُنِ؟ وَأَشِيرُ أَقَامَ عَلَى سَاحِلِ ٱلْبَحْرِ، وَفِي فُرَضِهِ سَكَنَ. | ١٧ 17 |
Gilead stayed on the other side of the Jordan; and Dan, why did he wander about on ships? Asher remained on the coast and lived close to his harbors.
| زَبُولُونُ شَعْبٌ أَهَانَ نَفْسَهُ إِلَى ٱلْمَوْتِ مَعَ نَفْتَالِي عَلَى رَوَابِي ٱلْحَقْلِ. | ١٨ 18 |
Zebulun was a tribe who would risk their lives to the point of death, and Naphtali, also, on the field of battle.
| «جَاءَ مُلُوكٌ. حَارَبُوا. حِينَئِذٍ حَارَبَ مُلُوكُ كَنْعَانَ فِي تَعْنَكَ عَلَى مِيَاهِ مَجِدُّو. بِضْعَ فِضَّةٍ لَمْ يَأْخُذُوا. | ١٩ 19 |
The kings came, they fought; the kings of Canaan fought at Taanach by the waters of Megiddo. But they took away no silver as plunder.
| مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ حَارَبُوا. ٱلْكَوَاكِبُ مِنْ حُبُكِهَا حَارَبَتْ سِيسَرَا. | ٢٠ 20 |
From heaven the stars fought, from their paths across the heavens they fought against Sisera.
| نَهْرُ قِيشُونَ جَرَفَهُمْ. نَهْرُ وَقَائِعَ نَهْرُ قِيشُونَ. دُوسِي يَا نَفْسِي بِعِزٍّ. | ٢١ 21 |
The Kishon River swept them away, that old river, the Kishon River. March on my soul, be strong!
| «حِينَئِذٍ ضَرَبَتْ أَعْقَابُ ٱلْخَيْلِ مِنَ ٱلسَّوْقِ، سَوْقِ أَقْوِيَائِهِ. | ٢٢ 22 |
Then came the sound of horses' hooves— galloping, the galloping of his mighty ones.
| اِلْعَنُوا مِيرُوزَ قَالَ مَلَاكُ ٱلرَّبِّ. اِلْعَنُوا سَاكِنِيهَا لَعْنًا، لِأَنَّهُمْ لَمْ يَأْتُوا لِمَعُونَةِ ٱلرَّبِّ، مَعُونَةِ ٱلرَّبِّ بَيْنَ ٱلْجَبَابِرَةِ. | ٢٣ 23 |
'Curse Meroz!' says the angel of Yahweh. 'Surely curse its inhabitants!— because they did not come to help Yahweh— to help Yahweh in the battle against the mighty warriors.'
| تُبَارَكُ عَلَى ٱلنِّسَاءِ يَاعِيلُ ٱمْرَأَةُ حَابِرَ ٱلْقَيْنِيِّ. عَلَى ٱلنِّسَاءِ فِي ٱلْخِيَامِ تُبَارَكُ. | ٢٤ 24 |
Jael is blessed more than all other women, Jael (the wife of Heber the Kenite), she is more blessed than all the women who live in tents.
| طَلَبَ مَاءً فَأَعْطَتْهُ لَبَنًا. فِي قَصْعَةِ ٱلْعُظَمَاءِ قَدَّمَتْ زُبْدَةً. | ٢٥ 25 |
The man asked for water, and she gave him milk; she brought 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 hand to the tent peg, and her right hand to the workman's hammer; with the hammer she struck Sisera, she crushed his head. She smashed his skull into pieces when she pierced him through the side of his head.
| بَيْنَ رِجْلَيْهَا ٱنْطَرَحَ، سَقَطَ، ٱضْطَجَعَ. بَيْنَ رِجْلَيْهَا ٱنْطَرَحَ، سَقَطَ. حَيْثُ ٱنْطَرَحَ فَهُنَاكَ سَقَطَ مَقْتُولًا. | ٢٧ 27 |
He collapsed between her feet, he fell and he lay there. Between her feet he fell limp. The place he collapsed is where he was violently killed.
| مِنَ ٱلْكُوَّةِ أَشْرَفَتْ وَوَلْوَلَتْ أُمُّ سِيسَرَا مِنَ ٱلشُّبَّاكِ: لِمَاذَا أَبْطَأَتْ مَرْكَبَاتُهُ عَنِ ٱلْمَجِيءِ؟ لِمَاذَا تَأَخَّرَتْ خَطَوَاتُ مَرَاكِبِهِ؟ | ٢٨ 28 |
Out of a window she looked— the mother of Sisera looked through the lattice and she called out in sadness, 'Why has it taken his chariot so long to come? Why have the hoofbeats of the horses that pull his chariots been delayed?'
| فَأَجَابَتْهَا أَحْكَمُ سَيِّدَاتِهَا، بَلْ هِيَ رَدَّتْ جَوَابًا لِنَفْسِهَا: | ٢٩ 29 |
Her wisest princesses replied, and she gave herself the same answer:
| 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 |
'Have they not found and divided up the plunder? —A womb, two wombs for every man; the plunder of dyed fabric for Sisera, the plunder of dyed fabric embroidered, two pieces of dyed fabric embroidered for the necks of those who plunder?'
| هَكَذَا يَبِيدُ جَمِيعُ أَعْدَائِكَ يَارَبُّ. وَأَحِبَّاؤُهُ كَخُرُوجِ ٱلشَّمْسِ فِي جَبَرُوتِهَا». وَٱسْتَرَاحَتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ أَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً. | ٣١ 31 |
So may all your enemies perish, Yahweh! But your friends be like the sun when it rises in its might.” Then the land had peace for forty years.
