Jongʼad Bura 5
1 Chiengʼno Debora kod Barak wuod Abinoam nowero wendni:
Then Deborah and Barak the son of Abinoam sang on that day, saying,
2 “Pakuru Jehova Nyasaye nikech jotelo mag Israel okawo loch, kendo ji giwegi ochiwore mar luwogi!
That the leaders took the lead in Israel, that the people offered themselves willingly, bless ye Jehovah.
3 “Winjuru, un ruodhi! Chikuru itu, un jotelo! Abiro pako Jehova Nyasaye ka awerne; anachuog ne Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasach Israel wer.
Hear, O ye kings. Give ear, O ye rulers. I, even I, will sing to Jehovah. I will sing praise to Jehovah, the God of Israel.
4 “Yaye Jehova Nyasaye, piny noyiengni, kendo polo nogingore, mi koth ochwe kane iwuok Seir e piny Edom.
Jehovah, when thou went forth out of Seir, when thou marched out of the field of Edom, the earth trembled, the heavens also dropped, yea, the clouds dropped water.
5 Got Sinai noyiengni e nyim Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasach Israel.
The mountains quaked at the presence of Jehovah, even yon Sinai at the presence of Jehovah, the God of Israel.
6 “E ndalo mag Shamgar wuod Anath, kendo e ndalo Jael, yore nojwangʼ, mi jowuoth ne luwo yore matindo.
In the days of Shamgar the son of Anath, in the days of Jael, the highways were unoccupied, and the travelers walked through byways.
7 Teko mar jolweny e miech Israel norumo, manyaka an Debora nabiro, ma abedo ka min ji e piny Israel.
The rulers ceased in Israel, they ceased, until that I, Deborah, arose, that I arose a mother in Israel.
8 Kane giyiero nyiseche manyien, lweny nochakore e dhorangeye mag dala maduongʼ, kata mana okumba kod tongʼ ne ok oyudie kind jolwenj jo-Israel alufu piero angʼwen.
They chose new gods, then war was in the gates. Was there a shield or spear seen among forty thousand in Israel?
9 Opak Jehova Nyasaye nikech chunya nigi jotend jo-Israel, kaachiel gi jogo mochiwore!
My heart is toward the governors of Israel, who offered themselves willingly among the people. Bless ye Jehovah.
10 “Un joma oidho punde marochere, kobedo e matandiko molos gi ongede, kendo un joma wuotho e wangʼ yo, winjuru,
Tell, ye who ride on white donkeys, ye who sit on rich carpets, and ye who walk by the way.
11 dwond joma wer koa kuonde mamon umboe pi; ka giwero timbe makare mag Jehova Nyasaye, kendo ka gipako timbe makare mag jolweny mage mager man Israel. “Bangʼ mano oganda Jehova Nyasaye nodhi e dhorangeye mag dala maduongʼ.
Far from the noise of archers, in the places of drawing water, there they shall rehearse the righteous acts of Jehovah, the righteous acts of his rule in Israel. Then the people of Jehovah went down to the gates.
12 Debora, chiew, chiew! ‘Chungi kendo ia malo mondo ichak wer! Aa malo, yaye Barak! Ter jogo miseloyo e twech, yaye wuod Abinoam.’
Awake, awake, Deborah, awake, awake, utter a song. Arise, Barak, and lead away thy captives, thou son of Abinoam.
13 “Eka jogo mane owe nobiro ir ruodhi; oganda Jehova Nyasaye nobiro ira gi teko duto.
Then a remnant of the nobles and the people came down. Jehovah came down for me against the mighty.
14 Jomoko kuomgi nowuok e gode mag Efraim, ogandagi nodak Amalek, kendo joma noa Benjamin noluwo bangʼu. Jotend lweny noa Makir nobiro, kendo joma noa Zebulun notingʼo ludh jatend lweny.
Out of Ephraim, those whose root is in Amalek, after thee, Benjamin, among thy peoples, out of Machir, came down governors, and out of Zebulun those who handle the marshal's staff.
15 Jotend Isakar ne nigi Debora; adier, Isakar ne nigi Barak, koreto bangʼe ka gichiko holo. To e gwenge mag Reuben ne nitiere nono chuny matut.
And the princes of Issachar were with Deborah, as was Issachar, so was Barak, into the valley they rushed forth at his feet. By the watercourses of Reuben there were great resolves of heart.
16 En angʼo momiyo ne usiko ka uoyo maj jokwath mondo omi uwinj ka jokwath liyo ni rombe? To e gwenge mag Reuben ne nitiere nono chuny matut.
Why did thou sit among the sheepfolds, to hear the pipings for the flocks? At the watercourses of Reuben there were great searchings of heart.
17 Gilead nodongʼ loka Jordan. To angʼo momiyo Dan nogalore but meli? Asher to nodongʼ e dho nam mi gidak e dho wedhe kuma yiedhi gowe.
Gilead abode beyond the Jordan. And Dan, why did he remain in ships? Asher sat still at the haven of the sea, and abode by his creeks.
18 Jo-Zebulun nochiwo ngimagi ne tho; kamano bende Naftali noketo mare e kuonde kedo.
Zebulun was a people who jeopardized their lives to the death, and Naphtali, upon the high places of the field.
19 “Ruodhi mag Kanaan nobiro, mokedo; Tanak machiegni gi pige mag Megido, to ne ok gidhi gi fedha, kata kawo gimoro amora moyako.
The kings came and fought. Then the kings of Canaan fought in Taanach by the waters of Megiddo. They took no gain of money.
20 Koa e polo, sulwe nokedo, koa kama gichakore negikedo gi Sisera.
From heaven the stars fought; from their courses they fought against Sisera.
21 Aora Kishon noywoyogi, aora ma hike ngʼeny, aora Kishon. Dhi nyime, chunya; bed motegno!
The river Kishon swept them away, that ancient river, the river Kishon. O my soul, march on with strength.
22 Bangʼ mano mor mar tiende farese nowinji kachikore gi teko mangʼeny.
Then the horse hoofs stamped by reason of the prancings, the prancings of their strong ones.
23 Malaika mar Jehova Nyasaye nowacho ni, ‘Okwongʼ Meroz kaachiel gi joge gi kwongʼ malit, nikech ne ok gibiro mondo gikony Jehova Nyasaye e lwet joma tek.’
Curse ye Meroz, said the agent of Jehovah. Curse ye bitterly the inhabitants of it, because they did not come to the help of Jehovah, to the help of Jehovah against the mighty.
24 “Jael ma chi Heber ja-Keni en dhako mogwedhi kuom mon duto, kendo ogwedhe moloyo mon duto modak e hema.
Blessed above women shall Jael be, the wife of Heber the Kenite. Blessed shall she be above women in the tent.
25 Nokwayo pi modho, to nomiye chak; nokelone chak mopwo e bakul moromo ruoth chiemoe.
He asked water. She gave him milk. She brought him butter in a lordly dish.
26 Norieyo lwete mondo okaw sigingi mar hema, ka lwete korachwich nokawogo twor. Nogoyo Sisera, motoyo wiye, kendo nopowo lela wangʼe.
She put her hand to the tent-pin, and her right hand to the workmen's hammer. And with the hammer she smote Sisera; she struck through his head. Yea, she pierced and struck through his temples.
27 Nopodho e tiende, mogore piny; kendo kanyo ema nothoe. Adier, nopodho e tiende, mogore piny; kendo kama nopodhoeno, ema nogore piny motho.
At her feet he bowed, he fell, he lay. At her feet he bowed, he fell. Where he bowed, there he fell down dead.
28 “Min Sisera ne ngʼicho gie dirisa; kaywak kama: ‘Angʼo momiyo gache odeko kapok obiro? Angʼo momiyo mor mar gechene ok winjre?’
Through the window she looked forth, and cried-the mother of Sisera through the lattice-Why is his chariot so long in coming? Why do the wheels of his chariots delay?
29 Achiel kuom jotichne ma nyiri mariek nodwoke; kawuoyo kende kama:
Her wise ladies answered her, yea, she returned answer to herself,
30 ‘Donge gipogo gik moyaki ka ngʼato ka ngʼato yudo nyako achiel kata ariyo, kendo imiyo Sisera lewni mabeyo kaachiel gi lewni mabeyo motwangʼ mongʼith, monego arwaki?’
Have they not found, have they not divided the spoil? A damsel, two damsels to every man, to Sisera a spoil of dyed garments, a spoil of dyed garments embroidered, of dyed garments embroidered on both sides, on the necks of the spoil?
31 “Omiyo mad wasikgi duto rum, yaye Jehova Nyasaye! To mad joma oheri chal gi chiengʼ, mawuok gi teko.” Bangʼ mano piny Israel nobedo gi kwe kuom higni piero angʼwen.
So let all thine enemies perish, O Jehovah, but let those who love him be as the sun when he goes forth in his might. And the land had rest forty years.
