Judges 4
1 And the children of Israel again did evil in the eyes of the Lord when Ehud was dead.
Porém os filhos d'Israel tornaram a fazer o que parecia mal aos olhos do Senhor, depois de fallecer Ehud.
2 And the Lord gave them up into the hands of Jabin, king of Canaan, who was ruling in Hazor; the captain of his army was Sisera, who was living in Harosheth of the Gentiles.
E vendeu-os o Senhor em mão de Jabin, rei de Canaan, que reinava em Hazor: e Sisera era o capitão do seu exercito, o qual então habitava em Haroseth dos gentios.
3 Then the children of Israel made prayer to the Lord; for he had nine hundred iron war-carriages, and for twenty years he was very cruel to the children of Israel.
Então os filhos d'Israel clamaram ao Senhor, porquanto elle tinha novecentos carros ferrados, e vinte annos opprimia os filhos d'Israel violentamente.
4 Now Deborah, a woman prophet, the wife of Lapidoth, was judge of Israel at that time.
E Debora, mulher prophetiza, mulher de Lappidoth, julgava a Israel n'aquelle tempo.
5 (And she had her seat under the palm-tree of Deborah between Ramah and Beth-el in the hill-country of Ephraim; and the children of Israel came up to her to be judged.)
E habitava debaixo das palmeiras de Debora, entre Rama e Beth-el, nas montanhas d'Ephraim: e os filhos d'Israel subiam a ella a juizo.
6 And she sent for Barak, the son of Abinoam, from Kedesh-naphtali, and said to him, Has not the Lord, the God of Israel, given orders saying, Go and get your force into line in Mount Tabor, and take with you ten thousand men of the children of Naphtali and of the children of Zebulun?
E enviou, e chamou a Barac, filho de Abinoam de Kedes de Naphtali, e disse-lhe: Porventura o Senhor Deus d'Israel não deu ordem, dizendo: Vae, e attrahe gente ao monte de Tabor, e toma comtigo dez mil homens dos filhos de Naphtali e dos filhos de Zebulon?
7 And I will make Sisera, the captain of Jabin's army, with his war-carriages and his forces, come against you at the river Kishon, where I will give him into your hands.
E attrahirei a ti para o ribeiro de Kison a Sisera, capitão do exercito de Jabin, com os seus carros, e com a sua multidão: e o darei na tua mão.
8 And Barak said to her, If you will go with me then I will go; but if you will not go with me I will not go.
Então lhe disse Barac: Se fôres comigo, irei: porém, se não fôres comigo, não irei.
9 And she said, I will certainly go with you: though you will get no honour in your undertaking, for the Lord will give Sisera into the hands of a woman. So Deborah got up and went with Barak to Kedesh.
E disse ella: Certamente irei comtigo, porém não será tua a honra pelo caminho que levas; pois á mão de uma mulher o Senhor venderá a Sisera. E Debora se levantou, e partiu com Barac para Kedes
10 Then Barak sent for Zebulun and Naphtali to come to Kedesh; and ten thousand men went up after him, and Deborah went up with him.
Então Barac convocou a Zebulon e a Naphtali em Kedes, e subiu com dez mil homens após de si: e Debora subiu com elle,
11 Now Heber the Kenite, separating himself from the rest of the Kenites, from the children of Hobab, the brother-in-law of Moses, had put up his tent as far away as the oak-tree in Zaanannim, by Kedesh.
E Heber, keneo, se tinha apartado dos keneos, dos filhos de Hobab, sogro de Moysés: e tinha estendido as suas tendas até ao carvalho de Saanaim, que está junto a Kedes.
12 And word was given to Sisera that Barak, the son of Abinoam, had gone up to Mount Tabor.
E annunciaram a Sisera que Barac, filho de Abinoam, tinha subido ao monte de Tabor.
13 So Sisera got together all his war-carriages, nine hundred war-carriages of iron, and all the people who were with him, from Harosheth of the Gentiles as far as the river Kishon.
E Sisera convocou todos os seus carros, novecentos carros ferrados, e todo o povo que estava com elle, desde Haroseth dos gentios até ao ribeiro de Kison.
14 Then Deborah said to Barak, Up! for today the Lord has given Sisera into your hands: has not the Lord gone out before you? So Barak went down from Mount Tabor and ten thousand men after him.
Então disse Debora a Barac: Levanta-te; porque este é o dia em que o Senhor tem dado a Sisera na tua mão: porventura o Senhor não saiu diante de ti? Barac pois desceu do monte de Tabor, e dez mil homens após d'elle.
15 And the Lord sent fear on Sisera and all his war-carriages and all his army before Barak; and Sisera got down from his war-carriage and went in flight on foot.
E o Senhor derrotou a Sisera, e a todos os seus carros, e a todo o seu exercito ao fio da espada, diante de Barac: e Sisera desceu do carro, e fugiu a pé.
16 But Barak went after the war-carriages and the army as far as Harosheth of the Gentiles; and all Sisera's army was put to the sword; not a man got away.
E Barac os seguiu após dos carros, e após do exercito, até Haroseth dos gentios: e todo o exercito de Sisera caiu ao fio da espada, até não ficar um só.
17 But Sisera went in flight on foot to the tent of Jael, the wife of Heber the Kenite; for there was peace between Jabin, king of Hazor, and the family of Heber the Kenite.
Porém Sisera fugiu a pé á tenda de Jael, mulher de Heber, keneo: porquanto havia paz entre Jabin, rei de Hazor, e a casa de Heber, keneo.
18 And Jael went out to Sisera, and said to him, Come in, my lord, come in to me without fear. So he went into her tent, and she put a cover over him.
E Jael saiu ao encontro de Sisera, e disse-lhe: Retira-te, senhor meu, retira-te a mim, não temas. Retirou-se a ella á tenda, e cobriu-o com uma coberta.
19 Then he said to her, Give me now a little water, for I have need of a drink. And opening a skin of milk, she gave him drink, and put the cover over him again.
Então elle lhe disse: Dá-me, peço-te, de beber uma pouca d'agua; porque tenho sede. Então ella abriu um odre de leite, e deu-lhe de beber, e o cobriu.
20 And he said to her, Take your place at the door of the tent, and if anyone comes and says to you, Is there any man here, say, No.
E elle lhe disse: Põe-te á porta da tenda; e ha de ser que se alguem vier, e te perguntar, e disser: Ha aqui alguem? responde tu então: Não.
21 Then Jael, Heber's wife, took a tent-pin and a hammer and went up to him quietly, driving the pin into his head, and it went through his head into the earth, for he was in a deep sleep from weariness; and so he came to his end.
Então Jael, mulher d'Heber, tomou uma estaca da tenda, e lançou mão d'um martello, e foi-se mansamente a elle, e lhe cravou a estaca na fonte, e a pregou na terra, estando elle porém carregado d'um profundo somno, e já cançado; e assim morreu.
22 Then Jael went out, and meeting Barak going after Sisera, said to him, Come, and I will let you see the man you are searching for. So he came into her tent and saw, and there was Sisera stretched out dead with the tent-pin in his head.
E eis que, seguindo Barac a Sisera, Jael lhe saiu ao encontro, e disse-lhe: Vem, e mostrar-te-hei o homem que buscas. E veiu a ella, e eis-que Sisera jazia morto, e a estaca na fonte.
23 So that day God overcame Jabin, king of Canaan, before the children of Israel.
Assim Deus n'aquelle dia sujeitou a Jabin, rei de Canaan, diante dos filhos de Israel.
24 And the power of the children of Israel went on increasing against Jabin, king of Canaan, till he was cut off.
E continuou a mão dos filhos de Israel a proseguir e endurecer-se sobre Jabin, rei de Canaan: até que exterminaram a Jabin, rei de Canaan.
