Judges 4
1 But after the death of Ehud, the sons of Israel resumed doing evil in the sight of the Lord.
Ehud a due hnukkhu hoi Isarelnaw ni Cathut hmalah hno kahawihoeh bout a sak awh.
2 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.
BAWIPA ni Kanaan ram Hazor kho dawk siangpahrang lah kaawm e Jabin koe a yo awh. A ransabawi teh Harosheth-hagoyim kaawm e Sisera doeh.
3 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.
Hahoi teh, Isarelnaw ni Bawipa koe kabawpnae a hei awh teh a kaw awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Jabin ni sumrangleng 900 touh a tawn. Isarelnaw teh kum 20 touh thung puenghoi a rektap awh.
4 Now there was a prophetess, Deborah, the wife of Lappidoth, who judged the people in that time.
Hatnae tueng dawkvah Lappidoth tami profet napui Deborah teh, Isarelnaw hah a uk.
5 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.
Ephraim mon dawk e hmuen, Ramah hoi Bethel rahak kaawm koe Deborah teh samtue rahim vah a tahung teh, haw hoiyah Isarelnaw lawk ouk a ceng.
6 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.
Tami a patoun teh, Abinoam capa Barak hah Naphtali ram Kedesh kho hoi a kaw teh, nang ni, Naphtali miphun, Zebulun miphun dawk e tami 10, 000 touh Tabor mon koe pâkhueng awh.
7 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.’”
Jabin ransabawi kalenpounge Sisera teh a marangnaw, a kaw e naw khuehoi nang na dawn hanelah, Kishion tui teng vah ka hrawi vaiteh, ahni teh na kut dawk na poe han telah, Isarelnaw e BAWIPA Cathut ni lawk na thui atipouh.
8 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.”
Hahoi Barak ni ahnimouh koe, na cetkhai pawiteh ka cei van han, na cet hoehpawiteh ka cet van mahoeh atipouh.
9 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.
Hahoi ahnimouh ni, na ceikhai roeroe han. Hatei na ceinae lamthung ni nama teh minhmai kahawi na hmawt mahoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA ni Sisera teh napui buet touh e kut dawk a yo han telah ati. Hathnukkhu, a thaw teh, Barak hoi Kedesh kholah a cei.
10 And he, summoning Zebulun and Naphtali, ascended with ten thousand fighting men, having Deborah in his company.
Barak ni Zebulun hoi Naphtali hah Kedesh vah a kaw teh, tami 10, 000 touh a cei teh Deborah hai a kâbang van.
11 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.
Ken miphun Heber teh, Mosi e a masei napui Hobab e catoun, Ken miphunnaw hoi a kampek awh teh Kedesh teng, Zaanannim kaawm e kathen kung koe, rim a sak teh ao awh.
12 And it was reported to Sisera that Barak, the son of Abinoam, had ascended to Mount Tabor.
Abinoam capa Barak teh, Tabor mon dawk a luen tie Sisera koe a dei pouh toteh,
13 And he gathered together the nine hundred chariots with scythes, and the entire army, from Harosheth of the Gentiles to the torrent Kishon.
Sisera ni marang a tawn e naw hoi, a tawn e sumrangleng 900 touh hoi Harosheth-hagoyim hoi Kishion palang totouh a taminaw a pâkhueng.
14 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.
Deborah ni Barak teh, thaw haw, Sisera teh BAWIPA ni na kut dawk poenae hnin a pha toe. BAWIPA teh na hmalah yo a cei toe vaiyaw telah atipouh. Barak ni Tabor mon dawk hoi a hnukkâbang tami 10, 000 touh hoi a cathuk sin.
15 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.
Hahoi, BAWIPA ni Sisera hoi a marangnaw hoi a ransanaw pueng teh, Barak hmalah koung a thei pouh. Sisera ma teh, amae rangleng dawk hoi a kum teh, a khok hoi a yawng.
16 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.
Hahoi Barak ni rangleng hoi ransanaw hoi Harosheth-hagoyim kho totouh a pâlei teh, Sisera ransanaw pueng teh tahloi hoi he a thei awh. Buet touh boehai hlout a hoeh.
17 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.
Hateiteh, Sisera teh a khok hoi Ken tami Hiber e yu Jael e rim dawk a yawng. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Hazor siangpahrang Jabin hoi Ken tami Haber rim imthungkhunaw hoi a kâhuiko awh.
18 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,
Jael ni Sisera kâhmo hanlah a tâco teh, bawipa kâen leih, kai koe kâenh, taket hanh atipouh. A rim thung a kâen sak teh, hni hai a khu.
19 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.
Hahoi ahni ni, pahren lahoi tui nei hane na poe haw, tui kahran poung atipouh. Hateh, napui ni, maito sanu bom a paawng teh a nei sak hnukkhu hni bout a khu.
20 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.’”
Hahoi ahni ni, tho koe kangdout nateh tami buetbuet touh ni tongpa hah ao maw telah na pacei pawiteh, awm hoeh telah tet pouh lah a, atipouh.
21 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.
Hatei, Haber e a yu Jael ni rim a hetnae cawt hoi cakkin a la teh, ngawt a tawn dawk a i lahun nah, arulahoi duem a cei sin teh, a hnâlakheng dawk pawk a het pouh teh, talai dawk moncawm a um, hateh a due.
22 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.
Khenhaw! Barak ni Sisera a pâlei navah, Jael ni kâhmo hanlah a tâco sin teh, tho leih, na tawng e tami teh na patue han atipouh teh, Barak rim thung a kâen navah, Sisera teh a hnâlakheng dawk cawt hoi pawk kâpâcue lah ao e hah a hmu.
23 Thus did God humble Jabin, the king of Canaan, on that day, before the sons of Israel.
Hat hnin vah, BAWIPA ni Kanaan siangpahrang Jabin teh, Isarelnaw hmalah a sung sak.
24 And they increased every day. And with a strong hand they overpowered Jabin, the king of Canaan, until they wiped him out.
Isarelnaw teh a tha hoehoe ao awh teh, a hnukteng vah Kanaan siangpahrang Jabin hah a raphoe awh.
