< Judges 4 >

1 And the children of Israel again did evil in the sight of the Lord after the death of Aod,
Alò, fis Israël yo ankò te fè mal nan zye SENYÈ a, apre Éhud te fin mouri.
2 And the Lord delivered them up into the hands of Jaban king of Chanaan, who reigned in Asor: and he had a general of his army named Sisara, and he dwelt in Haroseth of the Gentiles.
Konsa, SENYÈ a te vann yo nan men a Jabin, wa Kananeyen an, ki te renye nan Hatsor. Kòmandan lame li a te Sisera, ki te rete Haroscheth-Goïm.
3 And the children of Israel cried to the Lord: for he had nine hundred chariots set with scythes, and for twenty years had grievously oppressed them.
Fis Israël yo te kriye a SENYÈ a, paske li te gen nèf san cha fèt an fè, e avèk severite, li te oprime fis Israël yo pandan ventan.
4 And there was at that time Debbora a prophetess the wife of Lapidoth, who judged the people,
Alò, Débora, yon pwofetès, madanm a Lappidoth, t ap jije Israël nan tan sila a.
5 And she sat under a palm tree, which was called by her name, between Rama and Bethel in mount Ephraim: and the children of Israel came up to her for all judgment.
Li te konn chita anba pye palmis a Débora a antre Rama avèk Béthel nan peyi ti kolin Ephraïm yo, epi fis Israël yo te kon vin vè li pou l fè jijman.
6 And she sent and called Barac the son of Abinoem out of Cedes in Nephtali: and she said to him: The Lord God of Israel hath commanded thee: Go, and lead an army to mount Thabor, and thou shalt take with thee ten thousand fighting men of the children of Nephtali, and of the children of Zabulon:
Alò, li te voye kòmande Barak, fis a Abinoam nan, pou l soti nan Kedesh-Nephtali. Li te di l: “Veye byen, SENYÈ a, Bondye Israël la, te kòmande: “Ale mache vè Mòn Thabor e pran avèk ou di-mil lòm soti nan fis a Nephtali yo ak fis a Zabulon yo.
7 And I will bring unto thee in the place of the torrent Cison, Sisara the general of Jabin’s army, and his chariots, and all his multitude, and will deliver them into thy hand.
Mwen va atire fè vin parèt Sisera, kòmandan lame Jabin nan vini avèk cha li yo ak anpil sòlda yo vè larivyè Kishon, e mwen va mete li nan men ou.”
8 And Barac said to her: If thou wilt come with me, I will go: if thou wilt not come with me, I will not go.
Alò, Barak te di li: “Si ou prale avèk mwen, alò, m ap prale, men si ou pa prale avè m, mwen pa p prale.”
9 She said to him: I will go indeed with thee, but at this time the victory shall not be attributed to thee, because Sisara shall be delivered into the hand of a woman. Debbora therefore arose, and went with Barac to Cedes.
Li te di: “Mwen va vrèman ale avèk ou. Malgre, lonè p ap pou ou nan vwayaj ke w ap fè a, paske SENYÈ a va vann Sisera nan men a yon fanm.” Konsa, Débora te leve e te ale avèk Barak pou rive Kédesch.
10 And he called unto him Zabulon and Nepbtali, and went up with ten thousand fighting men, having Debbora in his company.
Barak te rele Zabulon ak Nephtali ansanm pou rive Kédesch, epi di-mil lòm te monte avèk li. Anplis, Débora te monte avèk li.
11 Now Haber the Cinite had some time before departed from the rest of the Cinites his brethren the sons of Hobab, the kinsman of Moses: and had pitched his tents unto the valley which is called Sellnim, and was near Cedes.
Alò, Héber, Kenyen an te rete apa de Kenyen yo, fis Hobab yo, bòpè Moïse la, e te monte tant li byen lwen jis nan bwatchenn ki nan Tsaannaïm nan, ki toupre Kédesch la.
12 And it was told Sisara, that Barac the son of Ablinoem was gone up to mount Thabor:
Yo te di Sisera ke Barak, fis a Abinoam nan, te monte vè Mòn Thabor.
13 And he gathered together his nine hundred chariots armed with scythes, and all his army from Haroseth of the Gentiles to the torrent Cison.
Sisera te rele ansanm tout cha li yo, nèf-san cha an fè ak tout pèp ki te avèk li yo, soti nan Haroscheth de Goïm yo jis rive nan larivyè Kishon.
14 And Debbora said to Barac: Arise, for this is the day wherein the Lord hath delivered Sisara into thy hands: behold he is thy leader. And Barac went down from mount Thabor, and ten thousand fighting men with him.
Debora te di a Barak: “Leve! Paske sa se jou nan sila SENYÈ a vin mete Sisera nan men ou! Veye byen, SENYÈ a gen tan sòti devan ou.” Konsa Barak te sòti desann Mòn Thabor avèk di-mil lòm ki t ap swiv li.
15 And the Lord struck a terror into Sisara, and all his chariots, and all his multitude, with the edge of the sword, at the sight of Barac, insomuch that Sisara leaping down from off his chariot, fled away on foot.
SENYÈ a te boulvèse Sisera avèk tout cha yo ak tout lame a avèk lam nepe devan Barak, epi Sisera te desann cha li e te sove ale a pye.
16 And Barac pursued after the fleeing chariots and the army unto Haroseth of the Gentiles, and all the multitude of the enemies was utterly destroyed.
Men Barak te kouri dèyè cha yo avèk lame a jis rive Haroscheth-Goïm e tout lame Sisera a te tonbe pa lam nepe. Nanpwen youn ki te rete.
17 But Sisara fleeing came to the tent of Jahel the wife of Haber the Cinite, for there was peace between Jabin the king of Asor, and the house of Haber the Cinite.
Alò, Sisera te sove ale sòti nan pye a tant Jaël la, madanm a Héber a, Kenyen an; paske te gen lapè antre Jabin, wa Hatsor a ak lakay Héber, Kenyen an.
18 And Jahel went forth to meet Sisara, and said to him: Come in to me, my lord, come in, fear not. He went in to her tent, and being covered by her with a cloak,
Jaël te sòti deyò pou rankontre Sisera, e li te di li: “Vire akote, mèt mwen, vire akote vè mwen! Pa pè.” Epi li te vire akote li nan tant lan, e li te kouvri li avèk yon tapi.
19 Said to her: Give me, I beseech thee, a little water, for I am very thirsty. She opened a bottle of milk, and gave him to drink, and covered him.
Li te di li: “Souple, ban mwen yon ti dlo pou m bwè; paske mwen swaf.” Konsa, li te ouvri yon boutèy lèt pou te bay li bwè ladann, epi li te kouvri li.
20 And Sisara said to her: Stand before the door of the tent, and when any shall come and inquire of thee, saying: Is there any man here? thou shalt say: There is none.
Li te di li: “Kanpe nan pòtay tant lan, epi li va rive ke si yon moun vin mande ou, e di: ‘Èske gen moun la a?’ Ou va di: ‘Non.’”
21 So Jahel Haber’s wife took a nail of the tent, and taking also a hammer: and going in softly, and with silence, she put the nail upon the temples of his head, and striking it With the hammer, drove it through his brain fast into the ground: and so passing from deep sleep to death, he fainted away and died.
Men Jaël, madanm a Héber a, te pran yon pikèt tant lan. Li te pran yon mato nan men li, e li te pwoche li dousman. Konsa, li te frape pikèt la fè l kreve tèt li jis rive atè, paske li te fatige nèt e li t ap dòmi. Konsa, li te mouri.
22 And behold Barac came pursuing after Sisara: and Jahel went out to meet him, and said to him: Come, and I will shew thee, the man whom thou seekest. And when he came into her tent, be saw Sisara lying dead, and the nail fastened in his temples.
Epi veye byen, pandan Barak t ap kouri dèyè Sisera, Jaël te parèt deyò e te di l: “Vini pou mwen montre ou nonm ke w ap chache a.” Epi li te antre avèk li. Vwala, Sisera te kouche la mouri nèt avèk pikèt tant lan nan fon li.
23 So God that day humbled Jabin the king of Chanaan before the children of Israel:
Konsa, Bondye te imilye, nan jou sa a, Jabin, wa Kananeyen an, devan fis Israël yo.
24 Who grew daily stronger, and with a mighty hand overpowered Jabin king of Chanaan, till they quite destroyed him.
Men lan a fis Israël yo te peze pi lou e pi lou sou Jabin, wa Kananeyen an, jiskaske yo te detwi Jabin, wa Kananeyen an.
