< Sudcov 4 >
1 Po smrti pak Ahoda činili opět synové Izraelští to, což jest zlého před očima Hospodinovýma.
But after the death of Ehud, the sons of Israel resumed doing evil in the sight of the Lord.
2 I vydal je Hospodin v ruce Jabína krále Kananejského, kterýž kraloval v Azor; (a kníže vojska jeho byl Zizara), sám pak bydlil v Haroset pohanském.
And the Lord delivered them into the hands of Jabin, the king of Canaan, who reigned at Hazor. And he had a commander of his army named Sisera, but this man lived at Harosheth of the Gentiles.
3 Tedy volali synové Izraelští k Hospodinu; nebo devět set vozů železných měl, a on násilně ssužoval Izraele za dvadceti let.
And the sons of Israel cried out to the Lord. For he had nine hundred chariots with scythes, and he vehemently oppressed them for twenty years.
4 Debora pak žena prorokyně, manželka Lapidotova, soudila lid Izraelský toho času.
Now there was a prophetess, Deborah, the wife of Lappidoth, who judged the people in that time.
5 (A bydlila Debora pod palmou, mezi Ráma a mezi Bethel na hoře Efraim), i chodili k ní synové Izraelští k soudu.
And she was sitting under a palm tree, which was called by her name, between Ramah and Bethel, on Mount Ephraim. And the sons of Israel went up to her for every judgment.
6 Kterážto poslavši, povolala Baráka, syna Abinoemova, z Kádes Neftalímova, a řekla jemu: Zdaližť nerozkázal Hospodin Bůh Izraelský: Jdi, a shromáždě lid na horu Tábor, vezmi s sebou deset tisíc mužů z synů Neftalím a z synů Zabulon.
And she sent and called Barak, the son of Abinoam, from Kedesh of Naphtali. And she said to him: “The Lord, the God of Israel, instructs you: ‘Go and lead an army to Mount Tabor, and you shall take with you ten thousand fighting men from the sons of Naphtali and from the sons of Zebulun.
7 Nebo přitáhnu k tobě ku potoku Císon Zizaru kníže vojska Jabínova, a vozy jeho i množství jeho, a dám jej v ruku tvou.
Then I will lead to you, at the place of the torrent Kishon, Sisera, the leader of the army of Jabin, with his chariots and the entire multitude. And I will deliver them into your hand.’”
8 I řekl jí Barák: Půjdeš-li se mnou, půjdu; pakli nepůjdeš se mnou, nepůjdu.
And Barak said to her: “If you will come with me, I will go. If you are not willing to come with me, I will not go.”
9 Kteráž odpověděla: Jáť zajisté půjdu s tebou, ale nebudeť s slávou tvou cesta, kterouž půjdeš, nebo v ruku ženy dá Hospodin Zizaru. Tedy vstavši Debora, šla s Barákem do Kádes.
She said to him: “Indeed, I will go with you. But due to this change, the victory shall not be reputed to you. And so Sisera will be delivered into the hand of a woman.” Therefore, Deborah rose up, and she traveled with Barak to Kedesh.
10 Svolav pak Barák Zabulonské a Neftalímské do Kádes, vyvedl za sebou deset tisíc mužů; a šla s ním i Debora.
And he, summoning Zebulun and Naphtali, ascended with ten thousand fighting men, having Deborah in his company.
11 Heber pak Cinejský oddělil se od Kaina, od synů Chobab, tchána Mojžíšova, a rozbil stany své až k Elon v Sananim, jenž jest v Kádes.
Now Heber, the Kenite, had previously withdrawn from the rest of the Kenites, his brothers, the sons of Hobab, the relative of Moses. And he had pitched his tents as far as the valley that is called Zaanannim, which was near Kedesh.
12 Oznámeno pak bylo Zizarovi, že vytáhl Barák syn Abinoemův na horu Tábor.
And it was reported to Sisera that Barak, the son of Abinoam, had ascended to Mount Tabor.
13 Protož shromáždil Zizara všecky vozy své, devět set vozů železných, a všecken lid, kterýž měl s sebou z Haroset pohanského, ku potoku Císon.
And he gathered together the nine hundred chariots with scythes, and the entire army, from Harosheth of the Gentiles to the torrent Kishon.
14 I řekla Debora Barákovi: Vstaň, nebo tento jest den, v němž dal Hospodin Zizaru v ruku tvou. Zdali Hospodin nevyšel před tebou? I sstoupil Barák s hory Tábor, a deset tisíc mužů za ním.
And Deborah said to Barak: “Rise up. For this is the day on which the Lord delivers Sisera into your hands. For he is your commander.” And so, Barak descended from Mount Tabor, and the ten thousand fighting men with him.
15 A porazil Hospodin Zizaru a všecky ty vozy, i všecka ta vojska ostrostí meče před Barákem; a sskočiv Zizara s vozu, utíkal pěšky.
And the Lord struck Sisera with great fear, and all his chariots and all his multitude with the edge of the sword, in the sight of Barak, so much so that Sisera, leaping from his chariot, fled on foot.
16 Ale Barák honil ty vozy a vojsko až do Haroset pohanského; i padlo všecko vojsko Zizarovo od ostrosti meče, tak že nezůstalo ani jednoho.
And Barak pursued the fleeing chariots, and the army, as far as Harosheth of the Gentiles. And the entire multitude of the enemy was cut down, unto utter annihilation.
17 Zizara pak utíkal pěšky k stanu Jáhel, manželky Hebera Cinejského; nebo pokoj byl mezi Jabínem králem Azor a mezi čeledí Hebera Cinejského.
But Sisera, while fleeing, arrived at the tent of Jael, the wife of Heber, the Kenite. For there was peace between Jabin, the king of Hazor, and the house of Heber, the Kenite.
18 I vyšedši Jáhel v cestu Zizarovi, řekla jemu: Uchyl se, pane můj, uchyl se ke mně, neboj se. I uchýlil se k ní do stanu, a přistřela jej huní.
Therefore, Jael went out to meet Sisera, and she said to him: “Enter to me, my lord. Enter, you should not be afraid.” And he entered her tent, and having been covered by her with a cloak,
19 Kterýž řekl jí: Dej mi, prosím, píti maličko vody, nebo žízním. A otevřevši nádobu mléčnou, dala mu píti a přikryla ho.
he said to her: “Give me, I beg you, a little water. For I am very thirsty.” And she opened a bottle of milk, and she gave him to drink. And she covered him.
20 Řekl také jí: Stůj u dveří stanu, a při-šel-li by kdo, a ptal se tebe, řka: Jest-li zde kdo? odpovíš: Není.
And Sisera said to her: “Stand before the door of the tent. And if anyone arrives, questioning you and saying, ‘Could there be any man here?’ you shall respond, ‘There is no one.’”
21 Potom vzala Jáhel manželka Heberova hřeb od stanu, vzala též kladivo v ruku svou, a všedši k němu tiše, vrazila hřeb do židovin jeho, až uvázl v zemi; (nebo ustav, tvrdě byl usnul), a tak umřel.
And so Jael, the wife of Heber, took a spike from the tent, and also took a mallet. And entering unseen and with silence, she placed the spike over the temple of his head. And striking it with the mallet, she drove it through his brain, as far as the ground. And so, joining deep sleep to death, he fell unconscious and died.
22 A aj, Barák honil Zizaru. I vyšla Jáhel vstříc jemu, a řekla mu: Poď, a ukážiť muže, kteréhož hledáš. I všel k ní, a aj, Zizara ležel mrtvý na zemi, a hřeb v židovinách jeho.
And behold, Barak arrived, in pursuit of Sisera. And Jael, going out to meet him, said to him, “Come, and I will show you the man whom you are seeking.” And when he had entered her tent, he saw Sisera lying dead, with the spike fixed in his temples.
23 A tak ponížil Bůh toho dne Jabína krále Kananejského před syny Izraelskými.
Thus did God humble Jabin, the king of Canaan, on that day, before the sons of Israel.
24 I dotírala ruka synů Izraelských vždy více, a silila se proti Jabínovi králi Kananejskému, až i vyhladili téhož Jabína krále Kananejského.
And they increased every day. And with a strong hand they overpowered Jabin, the king of Canaan, until they wiped him out.
