< Judges 4 >

1 After Ehud died, the Israelites again did evil in the sight of the LORD.
Erga Eehuud duʼee booddee Israaʼeloonni ammas fuula Waaqayyoo duratti waan hamaa hojjetan.
2 So the LORD sold them into the hand of Jabin king of Canaan, who reigned in Hazor. The commander of his forces was Sisera, who lived in Harosheth-hagoyim.
Kanaafuu Waaqayyo Yaabiin mootii Kanaʼaan kan Haazoor taaʼee bulchaa turetti dabarsee isaan gurgure. Ajajaan loltoota isaa Siisaaraa jedhama ture; innis Harooshet Hagooyim keessa jiraata ture.
3 Then the Israelites cried out to the LORD, because Jabin had nine hundred chariots of iron, and he had harshly oppressed the Israelites for twenty years.
Inni sababii gaariiwwan sibiilaa dhibba sagal qabuuf waggaa digdama akka malee Israaʼeloota hacuuce; isaanis gargaarsa barbaacha Waaqayyotti iyyatan.
4 Now Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lappidoth, was judging Israel at that time.
Yeroo sanatti niitiin Lafiidoot Debooraan raajittiin Israaʼelin bulchaa turte.
5 And she would sit under the Palm of Deborah between Ramah and Bethel in the hill country of Ephraim, where the Israelites would go up to her for judgment.
Isheenis biyya gaaraa Efreemitti Muka Meexxii Debooraa kan Raamaa fi Beetʼeel gidduutti argamu sana jala teessee murtii kennaa turte. Sabni Israaʼelis murtii argachuuf gara ishee dhufaa ture.
6 She summoned Barak son of Abinoam from Kedesh in Naphtali and said to him, “Surely the LORD, the God of Israel, is commanding you: ‘Go and march to Mount Tabor, taking with you ten thousand men of Naphtali and Zebulun.
Isheenis Baaraaqi ilma Abiinooʼam biyya Niftaalem magaalaa Qaadeshiitii waamsifatee akkana jetteen; “Waaqayyo Waaqni Israaʼel akkana jedhee si ajaja; ‘Kaʼi; gosa Niftaalemii fi gosa Zebuuloon keessaa nama kuma kudhan fudhadhuutii Tulluu Taabooriitti ol baʼi.
7 And I will draw out Sisera the commander of Jabin’s army, his chariots, and his troops to the River Kishon, and I will deliver him into your hand.’”
Anis Siisaaraa, ajajaa loltoota Yaabiin sana gaariiwwan lolaatii fi loltoota isaa wajjin akka inni gara Laga Qiishoonitti baʼu nan kakaasa; isas harka keetti dabarsee nan kenna.’”
8 Barak said to her, “If you will go with me, I will go; but if you will not go with me, I will not go.”
Baaraaqis, “Yoo ati na wajjin deemte, ani nan deema; yoo ati na wajjin hin deemin garuu anis hin deemu” jedheen.
9 “I will certainly go with you,” Deborah replied, “but the road you are taking will bring you no honor, because the LORD will be selling Sisera into the hand of a woman.” So Deborah got up and went with Barak to Kedesh,
Debooraanis, “Ani dhugumaan si faana nan deema. Yoo ati haala kanaan deemte garuu ulfinni siʼiif hin taʼu; Waaqayyo dabarsee Siisaaraa harka dubartiitti kennaatii” jetteen. Kanaafuu Debooraan Baaraaqi faana gara Qaadesh deemte;
10 where he summoned Zebulun and Naphtali. Ten thousand men followed him, and Deborah also went with him.
Baaraaqis achitti namoota gosa Zebuuloonii fi gosa Niftaalem walitti waame. Namoonni kuma kudhan isa duukaa buʼan; Debooraanis isa faana deemte.
11 Now Heber the Kenite had moved away from the Kenites, the descendants of Hobab the father-in-law of Moses, and had pitched his tent by the great tree of Zaanannim, which was near Kedesh.
Yeroo sanatti Hebeer namichi gosa Qeen abbaan niitii Musee sun Qeenota ilmaan Hoobaab kaan irraa citee Qaadesh biratti lafa Zaʼaanaaniim jedhamutti qilxuu guddaa jala dunkaana isaa dhaabbatee ture.
12 When Sisera was told that Barak son of Abinoam had gone up Mount Tabor,
Siisaaraan yommuu akka Baaraaqi ilmi Abiinooʼam sun gara Tulluu Taabooritti ol baʼee dhagaʼetti,
13 he summoned all nine hundred of his iron chariots and all the men with him, from Harosheth-hagoyim to the River Kishon.
gaariiwwan sibiilaa dhibba sagalii fi loltoota isaa kanneen Harooshet Hagooyimii hamma Laga Qiishoonitti argaman hundumaa walitti qabate.
14 Then Deborah said to Barak, “Arise, for this is the day that the LORD has delivered Sisera into your hand. Has not the LORD gone before you?” So Barak came down from Mount Tabor with ten thousand men following him.
Kana irratti Debooraan Baaraaqiin, “Kaʼi! Guyyaan Waaqayyo Siisaaraa dabarsee harka keetti kenne harʼa. Kunoo Waaqayyo si dura baʼeera” jette. Kanaafuu Baaraaqi namoota kuma kudhan fudhatee Tulluu Taaboor irraa gad buʼe.
15 And in front of him the LORD routed with the sword Sisera, all his charioteers, and all his army. Sisera abandoned his chariot and fled on foot.
Waaqayyos akka Siisaaraan, gaariiwwan isaatii fi loltoonni isaa hundinuu goraadeedhaan fuula Baaraaqi duratti moʼatamanii duubatti deebiʼan godhe; Siisaaraan gaarii isaa irraa buʼee miillaan baqate.
16 Then Barak pursued the chariots and army as far as Harosheth-hagoyim, and the whole army of Sisera fell by the sword; not a single man was left.
Baaraaqi garuu gaariiwwanii fi loltoota Siisaaraa hamma Harooshet Hagooyimiitti ariʼe; loltoonni Siisaaraa hundinuu goraadeedhaan dhuman. Namni tokko iyyuu hin hafne.
17 Meanwhile, Sisera had fled on foot to the tent of Jael, the wife of Heber the Kenite, because there was peace between Jabin king of Hazor and the house of Heber the Kenite.
Siisaaraan garuu sababii Yaabiin mooticha Haazoorii fi Hebeer namicha balbala Qeen sana gidduu hariiroon gaariin tureef gara dunkaana Yaaʼeel niitii Hebeer sanaatti miillaan baqate.
18 Jael went out to greet Sisera and said to him, “Come in, my lord. Come in with me. Do not be afraid.” So he entered her tent, and she covered him with a blanket.
Yaaʼeelis Siisaaraa simachuuf gad baatee, “Kottu yaa gooftaa koo; kottu ol seeni; hin sodaatin” isaan jette. Innis dunkaana ishee seene; isheenis wayyaa isa irra buuftee dhoksite.
19 Sisera said to her, “Please give me a little water to drink, for I am thirsty.” So she opened a container of milk, gave him a drink, and covered him again.
Innis, “Ani dheebodheera; maaloo bishaan naa kenni” jedheen. Isheenis qabee aannanii bantee waan inni dhugu kenniteefii isa dhoksite.
20 “Stand at the entrance to the tent,” he said, “and if anyone comes and asks you, ‘Is there a man here?’ say, ‘No.’”
Innis, “Balbala dunkaanaa dura dhaabadhu; yoo eenyu iyyuu dhufee, ‘Namni as jiraa?’ siin jedhe, ‘hin jiru’ jedhi” isheen jedhe.
21 But as he lay sleeping from exhaustion, Heber’s wife Jael took a tent peg, grabbed a hammer, and went silently to Sisera. She drove the peg through his temple and into the ground, and he died.
Yaaʼeel niitiin Hebeer garuu utuu Siisaaraan hirriba cimaa keessa jiruu qofoo dunkaanaa fi burruusa fudhattee suuta jettee bira geesse. Qofoo sanaanis isa waraantee lafatti hodhite; innis ni duʼe.
22 When Barak arrived in pursuit of Sisera, Jael went out to greet him and said to him, “Come, and I will show you the man you are seeking.” So he went in with her, and there lay Sisera dead, with a tent peg through his temple.
Yommuu Baaraaqi Siisaaraa duukaa buʼee dhufettis, Yaaʼeel isa simachuudhaaf gad baatee, “Kottu nama ati barbaaddu sittan argisiisaa” jetteen. Kanaafuu inni ishee wajjin gara dunkaanichaatti ol seenee Siisaaraa akkuma illeen isaa qofoodhaan waraanametti reeffa isaa arge.
23 On that day God subdued Jabin king of Canaan before the Israelites.
Waaqnis gaafa sana akka Yaabiin mootiin Kanaʼaanotaa fuula Israaʼelootaa duratti moʼatamu godhe.
24 And the hand of the Israelites grew stronger and stronger against Jabin king of Canaan until they destroyed him.
Harki Israaʼelootaas hamma isaan Yaabiin mooticha Kanaʼaanotaa galaafatanitti jajjabaachaa deeme.
