Judges 5
1 In that day, Deborah and Barak, the son of Abinoam, sang out, saying:
那一天德波辣和阿彼諾罕的兒子巴辣客作歌說：「
2 “All you of Israel who have willingly offered your lives to danger, bless the Lord!
為了以色列中間有指揮的元帥，為了百姓自願從軍，你們應祝頌上主!
3 Listen, O kings! Pay attention, O princes! It is I, it is I, who will sing to the Lord. I will sing a psalm to the Lord, the God of Israel!
諸民，請聽! 諸侯，側耳! 對上主我要歌唱，要讚頌上主以色列的天主!
4 O Lord, when you departed from Seir, and you crossed through the regions of Edom, the earth and the heavens were moved, and the clouds rained down water.
上主，當你由色依爾出征時，當你由厄東地前進時，天搖地動，密雲滴雨。
5 The mountains flowed away before the face of the Lord, and Sinai, before the face of the Lord God of Israel.
山岳搖搖欲墜，在上主前，在上主以色列的天主前。以色列受壓迫
6 In the days of Shamgar, the son of Anath, in the days of Jael, the paths were quiet. And whoever entered by them, walked along rough byways.
阿納特之子沙默加爾年間，在為奴的當時，商隊斂跡，行人轉向彎曲的陌徑。
7 The strong men ceased, and they rested in Israel, until Deborah rose up, until a mother rose up in Israel.
威力在以色列消逝了，消逝了! 直到我德波辣崛起，直到以色列的母親興起。
8 The Lord chose new wars, and he himself overturned the gates of the enemies. A shield with a spear was not seen among the forty thousand of Israel.
以色列選舉了新神，戰爭即臨門下。四萬以色列人中，不見一面盾牌，一支長矛。勝利的慶祝
9 My heart loves the leaders of Israel. All you who, of your own free will, offered yourselves during a crisis, bless the Lord.
我的心靈嚮往以色列的首領，嚮往百姓中自願從軍者。請你們祝頌上主!
10 You who ride upon donkeys laboring, and you who sit in judgment, and you who walk along the way, speak out.
騎白驢的，坐華氈的，和過路行人，你們都要歌唱，
11 Where the chariots were struck together, and the army of the enemies was choked, in that place, let the justices of the Lord be described, and let his clemency be for the brave of Israel. Then did the people of the Lord descend to the gates, and obtain leadership.
加入水泉間繚繞的歌聲! 那裏正在歌頌上主的勝利，歌頌他統治以色列的勝利。上主的百姓，速下到城門口!
12 Rise up, rise up, O Deborah! Rise up, rise up, and speak a canticle! Rise up, Barak, and seize your captives, O son of Abinoam.
奮發呀! 奮發，德波辣! 奮發呀! 奮發，請歌唱! 奮勇，起來，巴辣克! 阿彼諾罕的兒子! 擒住你的俘虜! 戰友
13 The remnants of the people were saved. The Lord contended with the strong.
英雄的後裔，請出征! 上主的百姓，請隨勇士為我出征!
14 Out of Ephraim, he destroyed those with Amalek, and after him, out of Benjamin, those of your people, O Amalek. From Machir, there descended leaders, and from Zebulun, those who led the army to war.
厄弗辣因盤據在山谷中，本雅明隨你加入了行列；領袖由瑪基爾進軍，省執權杖的由則步隆出發。
15 The commanders of Issachar were with Deborah, and they followed the steps of Barak, who endangered himself, like one rushing headlong into a chasm. Reuben was divided against himself. Contention was found among great souls.
依撒加爾的首領與德波辣和巴辣克相偕；巴辣克在山谷中率領自己的步兵襲敵。勒烏本境內，大有運籌帷幄之士!
16 Why do you live between two borders, so that you hear the bleating of the flocks? Reuben was divided against himself. Contention was found among great souls.
為什麼你坐在羊圈內，靜聽牧童的笛聲﹖勒烏本境內，都是猶豫滿懷的人。
17 Gilead rested beyond the Jordan, and Dan was occupied with ships. Asher was living on the shore of the sea, and dwelling in the ports.
基肋阿得在約但河東安居；丹人為什麼寄居船上﹖阿協爾在海岸靜坐，在港口悠閒；
18 Yet truly, Zebulun and Naphtali offered their lives to death in the region of Merom.
則步隆是好冒死捨命的子民，納斐塔里在高原上奮不顧身。交戰
19 The kings came and fought; the kings of Canaan fought at Taanach, beside the waters of Megiddo. And yet they took no spoils.
君王齊來戰鬥，客納罕眾王鏖戰，在默基多水傍─塔納客，未曾掠去一個銀錢。
20 The conflict against them was from heaven. The stars, remaining in their order and courses, fought against Sisera.
星辰由天上參戰，自其軌道與息色辣交鋒。
21 The torrent of Kishon dragged away their carcasses, the onrushing torrent, the torrent of Kishon. O my soul, tread upon the stalwart!
克雄河的急流將仇敵沖沒。我的心靈，勇敢踐踏罷!
22 The hoofs of the horses were broken, while the strongest of the enemies fled away with fury, and rushed on to ruin.
勇士急奔飛騰，馬蹄撻撻作響。雅厄耳計殺息色辣
23 ‘Cursed be the land of Meroz!’ said the Angel of the Lord. ‘Cursed be its inhabitants! For they did not come to the aid of the Lord, to the assistance of his most valiant men.’
詛咒默洛次，詛咒其中的居民，因他未率領勇士來協助上主!
24 Blessed among women is Jael, the wife of Heber the Kenite. And blessed is she in her tabernacle.
雅厄耳，在女子中是可讚美的! 在居於帳棚的女子中是可讚美的!
25 He begged her for water, and she gave him milk, and she offered him butter in a dish fit for princes.
他求水，她給了奶，以珍貴的杯盤呈上了乳酪。
26 She put her left hand to the nail, and her right hand to the workman’s mallet. And she struck Sisera, seeking in his head a place for the wound, and strongly piercing his temples.
她左手拿著橛子，右手拿著匠人的鎚子，打擊了息色辣，打穿了他的頭顱，擊穿了他的太陽穴。
27 Between her feet, he was ruined. He fainted away and passed on. He curled up before her feet, and he lay there lifeless and miserable.
在她腳前屈身伏倒，深深入睡，昏迷至死；在她腳前屈身伏倒，蜷伏在那裏，僵臥在那裏。
28 His mother gazed through a window and wailed. And she spoke from an upper room: ‘Why does his chariot delay in returning? Why are the feet of his team of horses so slow?’
息色辣的母親自窗口探望，在鐵櫺中長歎：戰車為什麼遲遲不來﹖車輛為什麼緩緩而行﹖
29 One who was wiser than the rest of his wives responded to her mother-in-law with this:
聰明的宮女作了回答，自己心中亦反複思想：
30 ‘Perhaps he is now dividing the spoils, and the most beautiful among the women is being selected for him. Garments of diverse colors are being delivered to Sisera as spoils, and various goods are being collected for the adornment of necks.’
或者獲得掠物而在分贓，每人分得一二少女；息色辣取得彩衣為掠物，為我的頸項，獲得錦繡彩衣。結論
31 O Lord, so may all your enemies perish! But may those who love you shine with splendor, as the sun shines at its rising.” And the land rested for forty years.
上主! 願你的敵人如此滅亡，願愛你的人像興起的旭日。」 境內於是平安了四十年。
