Judges 4
1 And the children of Israel again did evil in the eyes of the Lord when Ehud was dead.
As crianças de Israel fizeram novamente o que era mau aos olhos de Iavé, quando Ehud estava morto.
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.
Yahweh os vendeu na mão de Jabin, rei de Canaã, que reinou em Hazor; o capitão de cujo exército era Sisera, que vivia em Harosheth 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.
Os filhos de Israel clamaram a Javé, pois ele tinha novecentos carros de ferro; e ele oprimiu poderosamente os filhos de Israel por vinte anos.
4 Now Deborah, a woman prophet, the wife of Lapidoth, was judge of Israel at that time.
Agora Deborah, uma profetisa, esposa de Lappidoth, julgou Israel naquela época.
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.)
Ela vivia sob a palmeira de Débora entre Ramá e Betel, na região montanhosa de Efraim; e os filhos de Israel se aproximaram dela para julgamento.
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?
Ela enviou e chamou Barak, o filho de Abinoão, de Kedesh Naftali, e disse-lhe: “O Senhor Javé, o Deus de Israel, não lhe ordenou: 'Vai e guia o caminho para o Monte Tabor, e leva contigo dez mil homens dos filhos de Naftali e dos filhos de Zebulom?
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.
atrairei a você, ao rio Kishon, Sisera, o capitão do exército de Jabin, com suas carruagens e sua multidão; e eu o entregarei em suas mãos”.
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.
Barak disse-lhe: “Se você for comigo, eu irei; mas se você não for comigo, eu 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.
Ela disse: “Eu certamente irei com você”. No entanto, a viagem que você fizer não será por sua honra; pois Yahweh venderá Sisera na mão de uma mulher”. Deborah se levantou, e foi com Barak para Kedesh.
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.
Barak chamou Zebulun e Naftali juntos para Kedesh. Dez mil homens o seguiram; e Deborah subiu com ele.
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.
Now Heber, o quenita, havia se separado dos quenitas, mesmo dos filhos de Hobab, cunhado de Moisés, e havia armado sua tenda até o carvalho em Zaanannim, que é de Kedesh.
12 And word was given to Sisera that Barak, the son of Abinoam, had gone up to Mount Tabor.
Eles disseram a Sisera que Barak, filho de Abinoam, tinha subido ao Monte 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.
Sisera reuniu todas as suas carruagens, até mesmo novecentas carruagens de ferro, e todas as pessoas que estavam com ele, desde Harosheth dos Gentios, até o rio Kishon.
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.
Deborah disse a Barak: “Vá; pois este é o dia em que Javé entregou Sisera em suas mãos”. Yahweh não saiu antes de você”? Então Barak desceu do Monte Tabor, e dez mil homens atrás dele.
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.
Javé confundiu Sisera, todas as suas carruagens e todo seu exército, com o fio da espada antes de Barak. Sisera abandonou sua carruagem e fugiu em seus pés.
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.
Mas Barak perseguiu as carruagens e o exército até Harosheth dos Gentios; e todo o exército de Sisera caiu ao fio da espada. Não restava um homem.
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.
However Sisera fugiu de pé para a tenda de Jael, a esposa de Heber, o Kenita; pois havia paz entre Jabin, o rei de Hazor, e a casa de Heber, o Kenita.
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.
Jael saiu ao encontro de Sisera e lhe disse: “Entregue-se, meu senhor, entregue-se a mim; não tenha medo”. Ele veio até ela na tenda, e ela o cobriu com um tapete.
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.
Ele disse a ela: “Por favor, me dê um pouco de água para beber; pois estou com sede”. Ela abriu um recipiente de leite, deu-lhe uma bebida, 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.
Ele lhe disse: “Fique na porta da tenda, e se algum homem vier e lhe perguntar: 'Há algum homem aqui?' você dirá: '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, esposa de Heber, pegou uma estaca de barraca, pegou um martelo na mão e foi suavemente até ele, e bateu com o pino em seus templos, e furou no chão, pois ele estava em um sono profundo; então ele desmaiou e 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.
Eis que, enquanto Barak perseguia Sisera, Jael saiu ao seu encontro e lhe disse: “Venha, e eu lhe mostrarei o homem que você procura”. Ele veio até ela; e eis que Sísera estava morto, e a estaca da tenda estava em seus templos.
23 So that day God overcame Jabin, king of Canaan, before the children of Israel.
Então, Deus subjugou Jabin, o rei de Canaã, diante dos filhos de Israel naquele dia.
24 And the power of the children of Israel went on increasing against Jabin, king of Canaan, till he was cut off.
A mão dos filhos de Israel prevaleceu cada vez mais contra Jabim, o rei de Canaã, até que eles destruíram Jabim, rei de Canaã.
