< Judges 5 >

1 Then sang Deborah and Barak the son of Abinoam on that day, saying,
Hat nah hnin vah, Deborah hoi Abinoam capa Barak ni la a sak roi.
2 Praise you the LORD for the avenging of Israel, when the people willingly offered themselves.
Kahrawikung bawinaw ni Isarelnaw a hrawi teh, taminaw ni amamouh lungthocalah hoi a kâhmoun awh teh, BAWIPA teh a pholen awh.
3 Hear, O you kings; give ear, O you princes; I, even I, will sing to the LORD; I will sing praise to the LORD God of Israel.
Oe siangpahrangnaw thai awh haw, Oe bawinaw thai awh haw, BAWIPA koe la ka sak vai, Isarelnaw e BAWIPA Cathut koe la hoi ka pholen vai.
4 LORD, when you went out of Seir, when you marched out of the field of Edom, the earth trembled, and the heavens dropped, the clouds also dropped water.
BAWIPA nang ni Sisera mon lahoi na tho teh, Edom kahrawng hoi taran na tuk navah, talai a kâhuet teh, tâmai dawk hoi kho thouk na rak sak.
5 The mountains melted from before the LORD, even that Sinai from before the LORD God of Israel.
BAWIPA hmalah monnaw teh a kâhuet. Isarelnaw e BAWIPA Cathut hmalah vah, Sinai mon a kâhuet.
6 In the days of Shamgar the son of Anath, in the days of Jael, the highways were unoccupied, and the travelers walked through byways.
Anath capa Shamgar se nah, Jael se nahaiyah lamthungnaw teh kingdi dawkvah, kahlawng kacetnaw ni lamtalawi dawk hoi a cei awh.
7 The inhabitants of the villages ceased, they ceased in Israel, until that I Deborah arose, that I arose a mother in Israel.
Isarel miphunnaw koe bawi kâkuen laipalah ao. Kai Deborah ka tâco hoehnahlan, Isarel miphun dawk a manu a tâco hoeh nah totouh, bawi kâkuen laipalah ao.
8 They chose new gods; then was war in the gates: was there a shield or spear seen among forty thousand in Israel?
Isarelnaw ni cathut kathanaw hah a kârawi awh. Hat toteh, ahnimae khopuinaw hah tarannaw ni a tuk pouh awh.
9 My heart is toward the governors of Israel, that offered themselves willingly among the people. Bless you the LORD.
Isarel miphun 40, 000 touh teh, bahling, tahroe buet touh hai tawn awh hoeh.
10 Speak, you that ride on white asses, you that sit in judgment, and walk by the way.
Nangmouh marang pangaw dawk kâcuinaw, kalan lah lawkcengkungnaw, lam dawk na ka cet e naw,
11 They that are delivered from the noise of archers in the places of drawing water, there shall they rehearse the righteous acts of the LORD, even the righteous acts toward the inhabitants of his villages in Israel: then shall the people of the LORD go down to the gates.
a coe awh e hnopainaw hah, tuido teng a kârei awh e lawk na thai awh navah, la sak awh. BAWIPA e lannae, Isarel khocanaw koe lannae lahoi thaw tawknae naw hah hote hmuen koe a pholen awh han. Hahoi teh, amamouh onae kho koelah, BAWIPA e taminaw teh bout a ban awh toe.
12 Awake, awake, Deborah: awake, awake, utter a song: arise, Barak, and lead your captivity captive, you son of Abinoam.
Kâhlaw leih, kâhlaw leih, Deborah kâhlaw leih. Kâhlaw leih, la sak leih. Tho haw Barak, na man e taminaw hah thokhai haw, Oe Abinoam capa.
13 Then he made him that remains have dominion over the nobles among the people: the LORD made me have dominion over the mighty.
Na man awh e taminaw thokhai haw. Kacawie naw teh ransanaw koe a ban awh. BAWIPA e taminaw ni a tha kaawm, athakaawme taminaw tuk hanlah kai hanlah a cei awh.
14 Out of Ephraim was there a root of them against Amalek; after you, Benjamin, among your people; out of Machir came down governors, and out of Zebulun they that handle the pen of the writer.
Amalek tengpam kaawm e naw niyah, Ephraim hoi a kamthaw awh. Ahnimae hnuklah, na ransabawinaw thung dawk e Benjaminnaw teh a kâbang awh. Makhir bawinaw, Zebulun kâ kapoekungnaw teh a kamthaw awh.
15 And the princes of Issachar were with Deborah; even Issachar, and also Barak: he was sent on foot into the valley. For the divisions of Reuben there were great thoughts of heart.
Issakhar bawi hai Deborah hoi a tho teh, Issakhar teh Barak ni a kâuep e lah ao awh. Barak hnuk vah ayawn dawk a pâlei awh. Reuben miphunnaw teh lungthin kâounnae a tawn awh.
16 Why stayed you among the sheepfolds, to hear the bleatings of the flocks? For the divisions of Reuben there were great searchings of heart.
Nang ni tu hram lawk thai hanelah, bangkongmaw mon rahak vah sut na tahung. Reuben miphunnaw teh lung koung a samphei awh.
17 Gilead stayed beyond Jordan: and why did Dan remain in ships? Asher continued on the sea shore, and stayed in his breaches.
Gilead teh Jordan namran lah ao. Dannaw teh long kâhatnae koe bangkongmaw sut ao awh vaw. Ashernaw teh long kâhatnae koe a kongteng vah, kâroe laipalah bangkongmaw sut ao rumram awh vaw.
18 Zebulun and Naphtali were a people that risked their lives to the death in the high places of the field.
Zebulunnaw teh hring poe ditouh a lungsa awh. Naphtalinaw hai ka rasang e kahrawngnaw dawk a lungsa awh.
19 The kings came and fought, then fought the kings of Canaan in Taanach by the waters of Megiddo; they took no gain of money.
Siangpahrangnaw ni a tho awh teh, a tuk awh. Kanaan siangpahrangnaw ni Megiddo tui Taanakh kho teng a tuk awh ei, sui ngun hnopai lawm thai awh hoeh.
20 They fought from heaven; the stars in their courses fought against Sisera.
Kalvan lahoi taran tuk a kabawp awh teh, Âsinaw a kâhei awh navah, Sisera teh a tuk awh.
21 The river of Kishon swept them away, that ancient river, the river Kishon. O my soul, you have trodden down strength.
Ahnimanaw teh kalawng e Kishion tui ni he a pâyo awh. Oe ka muitha nang ni athakasaipoung e na tâ toe.
22 Then were the horse hoofs broken by the means of the prancings, the prancings of their mighty ones.
Hat toteh, marangransanaw ni marangnaw a yawng sak awh teh, marangnaw ni talai hah khoktabei hoi a takhawi laihoi a yawng awh.
23 Curse you Meroz, said the angel of the LORD, curse you bitterly the inhabitants thereof; because they came not to the help of the LORD, to the help of the LORD against the mighty.
Meroz teh thoebo hottelah BAWIPA e kalvantami ni ati. Athung e kaawm e puenghai thoebo haw. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA a kabawp hoeh dawk doeh. Athakaawme tuk han BAWIPA kabawp hoeh dawkvah.
24 Blessed above women shall Jael the wife of Heber the Kenite be, blessed shall she be above women in the tent.
Ken tami, Heber e a yu Jael teh, napui thung dawk a yawkahawipoung e lah awmseh. Rim thung kaawm e napui thung dawk, a yawkahawipoung e lah awmseh.
25 He asked water, and she gave him milk; she brought forth butter in a lordly dish.
Tui a hei nah, Jael ni maito sanutui a pânei. Bawi manang dawk hoi maito sanutui a poe.
26 She put her hand to the nail, and her right hand to the workmen’s hammer; and with the hammer she smote Sisera, she smote off his head, when she had pierced and stricken through his temples.
Rim hetnae cawt a la teh, aranglae kut hoi thaw tawknae cakkin hoi Sisera teh a hem teh, a hnâlakheng dawk pawkkayawng lah a hem.
27 At her feet he bowed, he fell, he lay down: at her feet he bowed, he fell: where he bowed, there he fell down dead.
A khok koe a rawp teh a rawpnae hmuen koe a due.
28 The mother of Sisera looked out at a window, and cried through the lattice, Why is his chariot so long in coming? why tarry the wheels of his chariots?
Hlalangaw dawk hoi a khet teh Sisera manu ni a khui. Bangkongmaw ahnie sumranglengnaw teh, bangkongmaw a tho hnai hoeh. Rangleng khoknaw teh bangkongmaw a hnawng telah a khui.
29 Her wise ladies answered her, yes, she returned answer to herself,
A lungkaang e napuinaw ni a dei pouh e hloilah, amahoima ni a kâpathung e teh,
30 Have they not sped? have they not divided the prey; to every man a damsel or two; to Sisera a prey of divers colors, a prey of divers colors of needlework, of divers colors of needlework on both sides, meet for the necks of them that take the spoil?
amamouh ni a hmu awh e hnonaw a kârei awh mue toe. Ransanaw koe tanglakacuem buet touh hoehpawiteh kahni touh, Sisera hanlah, asî bu e khohna, a em kaawm lah asî bu e khohna, a lahuen dawk awi hane, ka talue e khohna hah a lawp awh teh, a kârei awh mue toe telah ouk a khui.
31 So let all your enemies perish, O LORD: but let them that love him be as the sun when he goes forth in his might. And the land had rest forty years.
Hot patetlah a tarannaw pueng teh, be rawk naseh. Hateiteh, BAWIPA ka lungpataw naw teh kanî a tâco e patetlah, a tho onae hah kho lah yansei seh, telah la a sak awh. Hahoi hote ram teh kum 40 touh a roum.
