Judges 5
1 That day Deborah and Barak, son of Abinoam, sang this song:
In len sac Deborah ac Barak, wen natul Abinoam, yuk on soko inge:
2 “Israel's leaders took charge, and the people were totally committed. Praise the Lord!
Kaksakin LEUM GOD! Mwet Israel elos akola na, Ac sifacna eisalosyang in wi mweun.
3 Listen, kings! Pay attention, rulers! I, yes I, will sing to the Lord; I will praise the Lord, the God of Israel, in song.
Porongo, O kowos tokosra! Lohang, kowos mwet leum! Nga ac on ac srital ke mwe on Nu sin LEUM GOD, su God lun Israel.
4 Lord, when you set off from Seir, when you marched from the land of Edom, the earth shook, rain fell from the skies, the clouds poured down water.
LEUM GOD, ke kom tuku liki Fineol Seir, Ke kom tuku liki facl Edom, Faclu kusrusr, ac af kahkla inkusrao me. Aok, kof uh tuku in pukunyeng uh me.
5 The mountains melted in the presence of the Lord, the God of Sinai, in the presence of the Lord, the God of Israel.
Eol uh kusrusr ye mutun LEUM GOD lun Sinai, Ye mutun LEUM GOD lun Israel.
6 In the days of Shamgar, son of Anath, in the days of Jael, people didn't use the main highways and stayed on winding paths.
In len lal Shamgar, wen natul Anath, In pacl lal Jael, Wanginla un mwet wi ap lalos sifil fufahsryesr in acn se inge, Supuseni mwet forfor, ac elos ut na inkanek srisrik wut uh.
7 Village life in Israel was abandoned until I, Deborah, came on the scene as a mother in Israel.
Deborah, wanginla mwet muta fin acn lun mwet Israel. Acn inge oanna wangin koano nwe ke na kom tuku, Ac kom tuku oana sie nina nu sin Israel.
8 When the people chose new gods, then war arrived at their gates. Not even a shield or spear could be found among forty thousand warriors in Israel.
Na sifilpa oasr mweun in acn we Ke mwet Israel elos sifil sulela in oasr god sasu lalos. Inmasrlon tausin angngaul mwet mweun lun Israel, Ya oasr mwet utuk mwe loeyuk ku osra?
9 My thoughts are with the Israelite commanders and those people who volunteered. Praise the Lord!
Insiuk engan sin mwet kol lun un mwet mweun lun Israel, Ac selos su sifacna eisalosyang in mweun. Kaksakin LEUM GOD!
10 You people riding white donkeys, sitting on comfortable blankets, traveling down the road, notice
Srumun ma inge, kowos su muta fin donkey fasrfasr, Su muta fin mwe loeyuk wolana, Ac kowos su fahsr inkanek uh.
11 what people are talking about as they gather at the watering holes. They describe the Lord's just acts and those of his warriors in Israel. Then the people of the Lord went to the town gates.
Porongo! Wowon lun un mwet su muta raunela luf in kof uh, Elos srumun ke kutangla lun LEUM GOD, Ac ke kutangla lun mwet Israel. Na mwet lun LEUM GOD elos fahsr oatui liki siti selos.
12 ‘Wake up, Deborah, wake up! Wake up, wake up, sing a song! Get up, Barak! Capture your prisoners, son of Abinoam.’
Fahsr nu meet, Deborah, fahsrot na! Fahsrot, yuk soko on ac fahsr nu meet! Fahsrot, Barak wen natul Abinoam, Pwanuloswot mwet sruoh lom an!
13 The survivors went to attack the nobles, the people of the Lord went to attack the powerful.
Na mwet suwoswos su lula elos oatui nu yurin mwet kol lalos; Pa inge mwet lun LEUM GOD su tuku nu yorol ac akola nu ke mweun.
14 Some came from Ephraim, a land that used to belong to the Amalekites; the tribe of Benjamin followed you with its men. Commanders came Makir; from Zebulun came those who carry a military officer's staff.
Mwet inge tuku Ephraim me nu infahlfal uh, Elos fahsr tukun mwet in sruf lal Benjamin. Mwet kol elos tuku Machir me, Mwet leum lun mwet mweun elos tuku Zebulun me.
15 The leaders of Issachar supported Deborah and Barak; they raced into the valley following Barak. But the tribe of Reuben was very undecided.
Mwet kol lun mwet Issachar elos welul Deborah tuku. Aok, Issachar ac Barak tuku pac, Ac elos fahsr tokol nu infahlfal uh. Tusruktu sruf lal Reuben elos tia nunak se. Elos kofla wotela lah elos ac wi tuku.
16 Why did you stay at home in the sheepfolds, listening to shepherds whistling for their flocks? The tribe of Reuben really couldn't decide what to do.
Efu elos ku mutana yurin sheep natulos? Ya in lohng ke mwet shepherd elos pangon sheep uh? Aok, sruf lal Reuben elos tia nunak se. Elos kofla wotela lah elos ac wi tuku.
17 Gilead remained on the other side of Jordan. Dan stayed with his ships. Asher sat still on the seacoast, not moving from his ports.
Sruf lal Gad elos muta lefahl kutulap in Infacl Jordan. Sruf lal Dan elos mutana ke oak uh. Sruf lal Asher elos mutana wekof uh.
18 The people of Zebulun risked their lives; as did Naphtali on the high battlefields.
A funu ke mwet in sruf lal Zebulun ac Naphtali Elos asang moul lalos in mweun.
19 Kings came and fought, the Canaanite kings fought at Taanach near the waters of Megiddo, but they didn't get any silver plunder.
In acn Taanach, sisken infacl srisrik Megiddo, Tokosra elos tuku ac mweun; Tokosra lun mwet Canaan elos mweun sie sin sie, Tusruktu, wangin silver elos usla we lac.
20 The stars fought from heaven. The stars in their courses fought against Sisera.
Itu uh mweun inkusrao me Lainul Sisera Ke elos fahsr inkanek lalos yen engyeng uh.
21 The Kishon River swept them away—the old river turned into a raging torrent! I bravely march on!
Sie sronot lulap ke Infacl Kishon pahtkakunulosla — Aok, asr upa ke Infacl Kishon. Nga ac fah fahsr, fahsrna nu meet, ke ku!
22 Then the horses' hooves flailed loudly, his stallions stampeded.
Na horse uh srosroyak tuku, Ac futung infohk uh ke nialos.
23 ‘Curse Meroz,’ says the angel of the Lord. ‘Totally curse those who live there, for they refused to come help the Lord, to help the Lord against the powerful enemies.’
Sie lipufan lun LEUM GOD El selngawi acn Meroz ac fahk, “Sang kas in selnga nu fin mwet su muta we. Elos tuh tia wi tuku kasru LEUM GOD, In mweuni mwet lokwalok kulana.”
24 Jael, the wife of Heber the Kenite is to be praised the most among women. She deserves praise above all other women who live in tents.
Jael, mutan kial Heber, Pa insewowo emeet inmasrlon mutan uh, El pa wo nu se oemeet sin mutan nukewa ma muta in lohm nuknuk uh.
25 He asked for water, and she gave him milk. In a bowl fit for nobles she brought him buttermilk.
Sisera el siyuk ke kof, a Jael el sang milk; Jael el sang milk nu sel luin sie ahlu wolana.
26 With one hand she picked up the tent peg, and with her right hand she held a workman's hammer. She hit Sisera and smashed his skull; she shattered and pierced his temple.
Ke lac paol lasa Jael el sruokya soko osra in lohm nuknuk, Ac ke lac paol layot el sruokya sie hammer lulap lun mwet orekma. El faksilya Sisera ac fukulya ahlunsifal; El patikya osra soko ah sasla insifal.
27 At her feet he collapsed, he fell, he lay motionless. At her feet he collapsed, he fell; where he collapsed, there he fell, his life plundered from him.
Sisera el putati nu ke intwel, El putatla nu infohk uh sisken nial Jael ac tia mukuikui. Sisera el putati nu ke intwel sisken nial Jael; El putatla nu infohk uh ac misa.
28 Sisera's mother looked out from the window. Through the latticed window she cried out, ‘Why is his chariot taking so long to come? Why is the sound of his chariot arriving so delayed?’
Nina kial Sisera ah yorla liki winto ah; El wowoyak in winto ah lac ac siyuk, “Efu ku chariot natul Sisera ah pahtlac fuk in tuku? Efu ku horse natul ah sumui fuk in foloko?”
29 The wisest of her ladies tells her, and she repeats the same words to herself,
Mutan kasru lalmwetmet lal elos topuk nu sel, Tusruktu el kalwenina kas inge insial sifacna:
30 ‘They're busy dividing up the plunder and assigning a girl or two for each man. There'll be colorful clothes for Sisera as plunder; beautifully embroidered colorful clothes as plunder; double-embroidered clothing reaching to the neck as plunder.’
“Sahp elos srakna kite ma elos sruokya ke mweun ah inmasrlolos — Mutan se ku luo nu sin kais sie mwet mweun, Nuknuk wowo ac fah ma lal Sisera, Mwe yun kato ac fah nawela inkwawen kasra.”
31 May all your enemies die like this, Lord, but may those who love you shine like the sun in all its brilliance!” The land was at peace for forty years.
O LEUM GOD, lela tuh mwet lokoalok lom nukewa in misa ouingan, A mwet kawuk lom in saromrom oana faht ke takak uh! Ouinge oasr misla in acn we ke lusen yac angngaul.
