< Judges 4 >

1 And the children of Israel again did evil in the sight of Jehovah; now Ehud was dead.
Ko je bil Ehúd mrtev, so Izraelovi otroci ponovno počeli zlo v Gospodovih očeh.
2 And Jehovah sold them into the hand of Jabin king of Canaan, who reigned in Hazor; and the captain of his army was Sisera, who dwelt in Harosheth-Goim.
Gospod jih je prodal v roko kánaanskega kralja Jabína, ki je kraljeval v Hacórju, katerega poveljnik vojske je bil Siserá, ki je prebival v Haróšetu poganov.
3 And the children of Israel cried to Jehovah; for he had nine hundred chariots of iron, and he mightily oppressed the children of Israel twenty years.
Izraelovi otroci so vpili h Gospodu, kajti imel je devetsto bojnih vozov iz železa in dvajset let je mogočno zatiral Izraelove otroke.
4 And Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lapidoth, judged Israel at that time.
Ob tistem času je Izraelu sodila prerokinja Debóra, Lapidótova žena.
5 And she dwelt under the palm-tree of Deborah between Ramah and Bethel in mount Ephraim; and the children of Israel came up to her for judgment.
Prebivala je pod Debórinim palmovim drevesom med Ramo in Betelom, na gori Efrájim in Izraelovi otroci so prihajali gor k njej za sodbo.
6 And she sent and called Barak the son of Abinoam out of Kedesh-Naphtali, and said to him, Hath not Jehovah the God of Israel commanded? Go and draw towards mount Tabor, and take with thee ten thousand men of the children of Naphtali and of the children of Zebulun,
Poslala je in poklicala Abinóamovega sina Baráka iz Kedeš-Neftálija in mu rekla: »Ali ni Gospod, Izraelov Bog, zapovedal, rekoč: ›Pojdi in odpravi se proti gori Tabor in s seboj vzemi deset tisoč mož izmed Neftálijevih otrok in Zábulonovih otrok?‹
7 and I will draw unto thee, to the torrent Kishon, Sisera, the captain of Jabin's army, and his chariots and his multitude, and I will give him into thy hand.
K tebi, k reki Kišón, bom pritegnila Siserája, poveljnika Jabínove vojske, z njegovimi bojnimi vozovi in njegovo množico in izročila ga bom v tvojo roko.«
8 And Barak said to her, If thou goest with me, then I will go, but if thou goest not with me, I will not go.
Barák ji je rekel: »Če boš šla z menoj, potem bom šel, če pa ne boš šla z menoj, potem ne bom šel.«
9 And she said, I will by all means go with thee, only that it will not be to thine honour upon the way which thou goest, for Jehovah will sell Sisera into the hand of a woman. And Deborah arose, and went with Barak to Kedesh.
Rekla je: »Zagotovo bom šla s teboj, vendar potovanje, na katero greš, ne bo v tvojo čast, kajti Gospod bo Siserája prodal v roko ženske.« Debóra je vstala in z Barákom odšla v Kedeš.
10 And Barak called together Zebulun and Naphtali to Kedesh; and there went up at his feet ten thousand men; and Deborah went up with him.
Barák je v Kedeš poklical Zábulona in Neftálija in ta je odšel gor z deset tisoč možmi ob svojih stopalih in Debóra je z njim odšla gor.
11 (Now Heber the Kenite had severed himself from the Kenites, from the children of Hobab the father-in-law of Moses, and had pitched his tent as far as the oak of Zaannaim, which is by Kedesh.)
Torej Kenéjec Heber, ki je bil izmed otrok Mojzesovega tasta Hobába, se je oddvojil od Kenéjcev in si svoj šotor postavil na ravnini Caananím, ki je pri Kedešu.
12 And they told Sisera that Barak the son of Abinoam had gone up to mount Tabor.
Siseráju so naznanili, da je Abinóamov sin Barák odšel gor h gori Tabor.
13 Then Sisera gathered together all his chariots, nine hundred chariots of iron, and all the people that were with him, from Harosheth-Goim to the torrent Kishon.
Siserá je zbral skupaj vse svoje bojne vozove, devetsto železnih bojnih vozov in vse ljudstvo, ki je bilo z njim, od Haróšeta poganov do reke Kišón.
14 And Deborah said to Barak, Up; for this is the day in which Jehovah hath given Sisera into thy hand! Is not Jehovah gone out before thee? And Barak went down from mount Tabor, and ten thousand men after him.
Debóra je rekla Baráku: »Vstani, kajti to je dan, na katerega je Gospod izročil Siserája v tvojo roko. Ali ni Gospod šel ven pred teboj?« Tako je Barák odšel dol z gore Tabor in deset tisoč mož za njim.
15 And Jehovah discomfited Sisera, and all the chariots, and all the army, with the edge of the sword before Barak; and Sisera got down from [his] chariot, and fled on foot.
Gospod je pred Barákom z ostrino meča porazil Siserája, vse njegove bojne vozove in vso njegovo vojsko, tako da se je Siserá spustil iz svojega bojnega voza in pobegnil na svojih stopalih.
16 And Barak pursued after the chariots, and after the army, to Harosheth-Goim; and all the army of Sisera fell by the edge of the sword; not one was left.
Toda Barák je zasledoval bojne vozove in vojsko do Haróšeta poganov in vsa Siserájeva vojska je padla na ostrino meča in niti mož ni preostal.
17 And Sisera fled on foot to 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.
Vendar je Siserá na svojih stopalih pobegnil proč k šotoru Jaéle, žene Kenéjca Heberja, kajti mir je bil med Jabínom, kraljem Hacórja in hišo Kenéjca Heberja.
18 And Jael went out to meet Sisera, and said to him, Turn in, my lord, turn in to me; fear not. And he turned in to her, into the tent, and she covered him with the quilt.
Jaéla je odšla ven, da sreča Siserája ter mu rekla: »Zavij noter, moj gospod, zavij noter k meni. Ne boj se.« Ko je zavil noter, k njej v šotor, ga je pokrila z ogrinjalom.
19 And he said to her, Give me, I pray thee, a little water to drink, for I am thirsty. And she opened the flask of milk, and gave him drink, and covered him.
Rekel ji je: »Daj mi, prosim te, piti malo vode, kajti žejen sem.« Odprla je meh mleka, mu dala piti in ga pokrila.
20 And he said to her, Stand in the door of the tent, and it shall be if any one come and inquire of thee, and say, Is there any man here? that thou shalt say, No.
Ponovno ji je rekel: »Stoj v vratih šotora in zgodilo se bo, ko pride katerikoli mož in od tebe poizveduje in reče: ›Ali je tam kakšen mož, ‹ da boš rekla: ›Ne.‹
21 And Jael Heber's wife took a tent-pin, and took the hammer in her hand, and went softly to him, and smote the pin into his temples, and it penetrated into the ground; for he had fallen into a deep sleep and was faint; and he died.
Potem je Heberjeva žena Jaéla vzela šotorski klin in v svojo roko vzela kladivo in po tiho odšla k njemu in klin zabila v njegova sènca in ga pritrdila k tlom, kajti trdno je zaspal in bil je izmučen. Tako je umrl.
22 And behold, as Barak pursued Sisera, Jael went out to meet him, and said to him, Come, and I will shew thee the man whom thou seekest. And he went into her [tent], and behold, Sisera lay dead, and the pin was in his temples.
Glej, ko je Barák zasledoval Siserája, je Jaéla prišla ven, da ga sreča ter mu rekla: »Pridi in pokazala ti bom moža, ki ga iščeš.« Ko je vstopil v njen šotor, glej, Siserá je ležal mrtev in klin je bil v njegovih sèncih.
23 So God subdued on that day Jabin king of Canaan before the children of Israel.
Tako je Bog na ta dan pred Izraelovimi otroki podjarmil kánaanskega kralja Jabína.
24 And the hand of the children of Israel ever advanced, and prevailed against Jabin king of Canaan, until they had cut off Jabin king of Canaan.
Roka Izraelovih otrok je uspevala in prevladala zoper kánaanskega kralja Jabína, dokler niso uničili kánaanskega kralja Jabína.
