Judges 5
1 In that day, Deborah and Barak, the son of Abinoam, sang out, saying:
E cantou Debora e Barac, filho de Abinoam, n'aquelle mesmo dia, dizendo:
2 “All you of Israel who have willingly offered your lives to danger, bless the Lord!
Porquanto os chefes se pozeram á frente em Israel, porquanto o povo se offereceu voluntariamente, louvae ao Senhor
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!
Ouvi, reis; dae ouvidos, principes: eu, eu cantarei ao Senhor; psalmodiarei ao Senhor Deus de Israel.
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.
Ó Senhor, saindo tu de Seir, caminhando tu desde o campo de Edon, a terra estremeceu; até os céus gotejaram: até as nuvens gotejaram aguas.
5 The mountains flowed away before the face of the Lord, and Sinai, before the face of the Lord God of Israel.
Os montes se derreteram diante do Senhor, e até Sinai diante do Senhor Deus de Israel.
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.
Nos dias de Samgar, filho d'Anath, nos dias de Jael cessaram os caminhos de se percorrerem: e os que andavam por veredas iam por caminhos torcidos.
7 The strong men ceased, and they rested in Israel, until Deborah rose up, until a mother rose up in Israel.
Cessaram as aldeias em Israel, cessaram: até que eu, Debora, me levantei, por mãe em Israel me levantei.
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.
E se escolhia deuses novos, logo a guerra estava ás portas: via-se por isso escudo ou lança entre quarenta mil em Israel?
9 My heart loves the leaders of Israel. All you who, of your own free will, offered yourselves during a crisis, bless the Lord.
Meu coração é para os legisladores de Israel, que voluntariamente se offereceram entre o povo; louvae ao Senhor.
10 You who ride upon donkeys laboring, and you who sit in judgment, and you who walk along the way, speak out.
Vós os que cavalgaes sobre jumentas brancas, que vos assentaes em juizo, e que andaes pelo caminho, fallae d'isto.
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.
D'onde se ouve o estrondo dos frecheiros, entre os logares onde se tiram aguas, ali fallae das justiças do Senhor, das justiças que fez ás suas aldeias em Israel: então o povo do Senhor descia ás portas.
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.
Desperta, desperta, Debora, desperta, desperta, entôa um cantico: levanta-te, Barac, e leva presos a teus prisioneiros, tu, filho d'Abinoam.
13 The remnants of the people were saved. The Lord contended with the strong.
Então o Senhor fez dominar sobre os magnificos entre o povo aos que ficaram de resto: fez-me o Senhor dominar sobre os valentes.
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.
De Ephraim saiu a sua raiz contra Amalek: e apoz de ti vinha Benjamin d'entre os teus povos: de Machir e Zebulon desceram os legisladores, passando com o cajado do escriba.
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.
Tambem os principaes de Issacar, foram com Debora; e como Issacar, assim tambem Barac, foi enviado a pé para o valle: nas correntes de Ruben foram grandes as resoluções do coração.
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.
Porque ficaste tu entre os curraes para ouvires os balidos dos rebanhos? nas correntes de Ruben tiveram grandes esquadrinhações do coração.
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.
Gilead se ficou d'além do Jordão, e Dan porque se deteve em navios? Aser se assentou nos portos do mar, e ficou nas suas ruinas.
18 Yet truly, Zebulun and Naphtali offered their lives to death in the region of Merom.
Zebulon é um povo que expoz a sua vida á morte, como tambem Naphtali, nas alturas do campo.
19 The kings came and fought; the kings of Canaan fought at Taanach, beside the waters of Megiddo. And yet they took no spoils.
Vieram reis, pelejaram: então pelejaram os reis de Canaan em Thaanak, junto ás aguas de Megiddo: não tomaram ganho de prata.
20 The conflict against them was from heaven. The stars, remaining in their order and courses, fought against Sisera.
Desde os céus pelejaram: até as estrellas desde os logares dos seus cursos pelejaram contra Sisera.
21 The torrent of Kishon dragged away their carcasses, the onrushing torrent, the torrent of Kishon. O my soul, tread upon the stalwart!
O ribeiro de Kison os arrastou, aquelle antigo ribeiro, o ribeiro de Kison. Pisaste, ó alma minha, a força.
22 The hoofs of the horses were broken, while the strongest of the enemies fled away with fury, and rushed on to ruin.
Então as unhas dos cavallos se despedaçaram: pelo galopar, o galopar dos seus valentes.
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.’
Amaldiçoae a Meroz, diz o anjo do Senhor, acremente amaldiçoae aos seus moradores: porquanto não vieram ao soccorro do Senhor, ao soccorro do Senhor com os valorosos.
24 Blessed among women is Jael, the wife of Heber the Kenite. And blessed is she in her tabernacle.
Bemdita seja sobre as mulheres Jael, mulher d'Heber, o keneo: bemdita seja sobre as mulheres nas tendas.
25 He begged her for water, and she gave him milk, and she offered him butter in a dish fit for princes.
Agua pediu elle, leite lhe deu ella: em taça de principes lhe offereceu manteiga.
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.
Á estaca estendeu a sua mão esquerda, e ao maço dos trabalhadores a sua direita: e matou a Sisera, e rachou-lhe a cabeça, quando lhe pregou e atravessou as fontes.
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.
Entre os seus pés se en curvou, caiu, ficou estirado: entre os seus pés se encurvou caiu: onde se encurvou ali ficou abatido.
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?’
A mãe de Sisera olhava pela janella, e exclamava pela grade: Porque tarda em vir o seu carro? porque se demoram os passos dos seus carros?
29 One who was wiser than the rest of his wives responded to her mother-in-law with this:
As mais sabias das suas damas responderam; e até ella se respondia a si mesmo:
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.’
Porventura não achariam e repartiriam despojos? uma ou duas moças a cada homem? para Sisera despojos de varias côres, despojos de varias côres de bordados; de varias cores bordadas de ambas as bandas, para os pescoços do despojo?
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.
Assim, ó Senhor, pereçam todos os teus inimigos! porém os que o amam sejam como o sol quando sae na sua força. E socegou a terra quarenta annos.
