< Judges 4 >

1 And the sons of Israel add to do evil in the eyes of YHWH when Ehud is dead,
Ehud a duek phoeiah BOEIPA mikhmuh ah thae saii ham te Israel ca rhoek loh koep a khoep uh.
2 and YHWH sells them into the hand of Jabin king of Canaan, who has reigned in Hazor, and Sisera [is] the head of his host, and he is dwelling in Harosheth of the nations;
Te dongah amih te BOEIPA loh Hazor aka manghai thil Kanaan manghai Jabin kut neh anih kah caempuei mangpa Sisera, Kharosheth-hagoyim ah aka om taengah a yoih.
3 and the sons of Israel cry to YHWH, for he has nine hundred chariots of iron, and he has oppressed the sons of Israel mightily [for] twenty years.
Anih te thi leng ya ko a khueh dongah Israel ca rhoek te thamanah neh kum kul a nen. Te dongah Israel ca rhoek tah BOEIPA taengah pang uh.
4 And Deborah, a woman, a prophetess, wife of Lapidoth, she is judging Israel at that time,
Te vaeng tue ah Lappidoth yuu tonghmanu, nu Deborah loh Israel ham lai a rhoe pah.
5 and she is dwelling under the palm-tree of Deborah, between Ramah and Beth-El, in the hill-country of Ephraim, and the sons of Israel go up to her for judgment.
Deborah te Ephraim tlang kah Ramah laklo neh Bethel laklo kah rhophoe hmuiah kho a sak. Te vaengah laitloeknah ham Israel ca rhoek loh anih te a paan uh.
6 And she sends and calls for Barak son of Abinoam, out of Kedesh-Naphtali, and says to him, “Has YHWH, God of Israel, not commanded? Go, and you have drawn toward Mount Tabor, and have taken with you ten thousand men, out of the sons of Naphtali, and out of the sons of Zebulun,
Te vaengah Kedesh Naphtali lamkah Abinoam capa Barak te a tah tih a khue. Te phoeiah anih te, “Israel Pathen BOEIPA loh ng'uen moenih a? Cet lamtah Tabor tlang la mawt. Naphtali ca rhoek neh Zebulun ca rhoek khui lamkah hlang thawng rha namah neh puei uh.
7 and I have drawn to you, to the Brook of Kishon, Sisera, head of the host of Jabin, and his chariot, and his multitude, and have given him into your hand.”
Jabin kah caempuei mangpa Sisera neh anih kah leng khaw, a hlangping te khaw nang taengah Kishon soklong duela kan sol vetih na kut ah kam paek bitni,” a ti nah.
8 And Barak says to her, “If you go with me, then I have gone; and if you do not go with me, I do not go”;
Barak loh Deborah taengah, “Ka taengah na pongpa atah ka cet ngawn ni, tedae kai taengah ni na pongpa pawt atah ka cet van mahpawh,” a ti nah.
9 and she says, “I certainly go with you; only, surely your glory is not on the way which you are going, for YHWH sells Sisera into the hand of a woman”; and Deborah rises and goes with Barak to Kedesh.
Te dongah, “Nang taengah ka pongpa khaw ka pongpa ngawn suidae, na pongpa nah longpuei kah Sisera te BOEIPA loh huta kut dongla a yoih coeng dongah nang kah na boei na mang ngawn tah om voel mahpawh,” a ti nah. Te phoeiah Deborah te thoo tih Barak te Kedesh la a caeh puei.
10 And Barak calls Zebulun and Naphtali to Kedesh, and he goes up—ten thousand men [are] at his feet—and Deborah goes up with him.
Kedesh ah Zebulun neh Naphtali te Barak loh a hueh. Te vaengah a kho neh hlang thawng rha a caeh dongah Deborah khaw anih taengla luei van.
11 And Heber the Kenite has been separated from the Kenite, from the sons of Hobab father-in-law of Moses, and he stretches out his tent to the oak in Zaanaim, which [is] by Kedesh.
Te vaengah Moses masae Hobab koca Heber Keni tah Kain lamloh hoep uh tih Kedesh Zaanannim kah thingnu taengah dap a tuuk.
12 And they declare to Sisera that Barak son of Abinoam has gone up to Mount Tabor,
Te phoeiah Tabor tlang kah Abinoam capa Barak a luei te Sisera taengla a puen pauh.
13 and Sisera calls all his chariots, nine hundred chariots of iron, and all the people who [are] with him, from Harosheth of the nations, to the Brook of Kishon.
Sisera loh amah kah leng rhoek te thi leng ya ko la boeih a hueh tih amah taengkah pilnam pum te Kharosheth-hagoyim lamloh Kishon soklong la a khuen.
14 And Deborah says to Barak, “Rise, for this [is] the day in which YHWH has given Sisera into your hand; has YHWH not gone out before you?” And Barak goes down from Mount Tabor, and ten thousand men after him.
Te dongah Deborah loh Barak taengah, “Sisera he na kut dongla BOEIPA loh m'paek coeng dongah tihnin ah thoo laeh. Na mikhmuh ah BOEIPA a caeh moenih a?,” a ti nah. Te dongah Barak loh a hnukah hlang thawng rha neh Tabor tlang lamloh suntla thuk.
15 And YHWH destroys Sisera, and all the chariots, and all the camp, by the mouth of the sword, before Barak, and Sisera comes down from off the chariot, and flees on his feet.
Sisera neh leng boeih, caem boeih te Barak mikhmuh ah BOEIPA loh cunghang ha neh a khawkhek pah. Te dongah Sesera tah leng dong lamloh rhum tih a kho neh vik rhaelrham.
16 And Barak has pursued after the chariots and after the camp, to Harosheth of the nations, and all the camp of Sisera falls by the mouth of the sword—there has not been left even one.
Tedae leng hnuk neh caem hnuk te Barak loh Kharosheth-hagoyim duela a hloem. Te dongah Sisera caem te cunghang ha neh boeih a tulh tih pakhat khaw sueng pawh.
17 And Sisera has fled on his feet to the tent of Jael wife of Heber the Kenite, for [there is] peace between Jabin king of Hazor and the house of Heber the Kenite;
Tedae Hazor manghai Jabin laklo neh Keni Heber imko laklo ah he rhoepnah la ana om dongah Sisera tah Keni Heber yuu Jael kah dap duela a kho neh rhaelrham.
18 and Jael goes out to meet Sisera and says to him, “Turn aside, my lord, turn aside to me, do not fear”; and he turns aside to her, into the tent, and she covers him with a mantle.
Te dongah Jael tah Sisera doe hamla cet tih, “Ka boeipa ha pah dae, kai taengla ha pah dae, rhih boeh,” a ti nah. Te daengah te dap khuila kun tih anih te himbai neh mulh a khuk.
19 And he says to her, “Please give me a little water to drink, for I am thirsty”; and she opens the bottle of milk, and gives him to drink, and covers him.
Te phoeiah Jael taengah, “Tui ka halthi coeng tih a yol khaw bet n'tul laem,” a ti nah. Te dongah suktui tuitang te a ong tih a tul phoeiah koep a khuk.
20 And he says to her, “Stand at the opening of the tent, and it has been, if any comes in, and has asked you and said, Is there a man here? That you have said, There is not.”
Sisera loh Jael taengah, “Dap thohka ah pai lamtah hlang aka lo ni om tih nang n'dawt vaengah, 'Hlang om mai a?,’ a ti,” atah, 'Om pawh,’ ti nah,” a ti nah.
21 And Jael wife of Heber takes the pin of the tent, and takes the hammer in her hand, and goes to him gently, and strikes the pin into his temples, and it fastens in the earth—and he has been fast asleep, and is weary—and he dies.
Tedae Heber yuu Jael loh dap kah hlingcong te a loh tih a kut dongah thilung a pom. A muel la Sisera te a paan tih a baengpae khuila hlingcong te a hen. A ih muelh vaengah cirhong dongah a pawlh coeng dongah pahoi duek.
22 And behold, Barak is pursuing Sisera, and Jael comes out to meet him, and says to him, “Come, and I show you the man whom you are seeking”; and he comes to her, and behold, Sisera is fallen—dead, and the pin [is] in his temples.
Barak loh Sisera te a hloem vaengah anih aka doe la Jael lawt ha moe tih, “Halo la lamtah nang loh na tlap hlang te namah kan tueng eh?,” a ti nah. Tedae a kun rhoi vaengah Sisera tah a baengpae kah hlingcong dongah a duek la tarha ana yalh.
23 And God humbles Jabin king of Canaan before the sons of Israel on that day,
Tekah khohnin ah Kanaan manghai Jabin te Pathen loh Israel ca rhoek kah mikhmuh ah a kunyun sak.
24 and the hand of the sons of Israel goes, going on and becoming hard on Jabin king of Canaan, until they have cut off Jabin king of Canaan.
Israel ca rhoek kah kut aka cu long khaw Kanaan manghai Jabin taengah rhaprhap a cuk thil tih Kanaan manghai Jabin te a saii.
