Judges 4
1 And the sons of Israel add to do evil in the eyes of YHWH when Ehud is dead,
Og Israels Børn bleve ved at gøre ondt for Herrens Øjne, der Ehud var død.
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;
Og Herren solgte dem i Jabins, Kanaans Konges, Haand, som regerede i Hazor; og Sisera var hans Stridshøvedsmand, og han boede i Haroseth Hagojim.
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.
Og Israels Børn raabte til Herren; thi han havde ni Hundrede Jernvogne, og han havde undertrykt Israels Børn med Magt tyve Aar.
4 And Deborah, a woman, a prophetess, wife of Lapidoth, she is judging Israel at that time,
Og Debora, en Kvinde, en Profetinde, Lapidoths Hustru, dømte Israel paa den samme Tid.
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.
Og hun boede under Deboras Palmetræ, imellem Rama og Bethel, paa Efraims Bjerg; og Israels Børn gik op til hende for Retten.
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,
Og hun sendte hen og lod kalde Barak, Abinoams Søn, af Kedes i Nafthali, og hun sagde til ham: Har ikke Herren Israels Gud budet: Gak og saml Folk paa Thabors Bjerg, og tag ti Tusinde Mænd med dig af Nafthali Børn og af Sebulons Børn.
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.”
Og jeg vil drage Sisera, Jabins Stridshøvedsmand, til dig, til Bækken Kison, og hans Vogne og hans Hob; og jeg vil give ham i din Haand.
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”;
Og Barak sagde til hende: Dersom du vil gaa med mig, da vil jeg gaa; men dersom du ikke vil gaa med mig, vil jeg ikke gaa.
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.
Og hun sagde: Jeg vil visseligen gaa med dig; men du vil dog ikke faa Æren paa den Vej, som du gaar paa, thi Herren skal sælge Sisera i en Kvindes Haand; saa gjorde Debora sig rede og gik med Barak til Kedes.
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.
Da kaldte Barak Sebulon og Nafthali sammen til Kedes; og der drog op efter ham ti Tusinde Mænd, og Debora drog op med ham.
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.
Og Keniteren Heber havde skilt sig fra Keniterne, Hobabs, Mose Svigerfaders, Børn; og han slog sit Telt op indtil Lunden i Zaannaim, som er ved Kedes.
12 And they declare to Sisera that Barak son of Abinoam has gone up to Mount Tabor,
Da gave de Sisera til Kende, at Barak, Abinoams Søn, var dragen op paa Bjerget Thabor.
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.
Og Sisera sammenkaldte alle sine Vogne, ni Hundrede Jernvogne, og alt Folket, som var med ham, fra Haroseth Hagojim til Bækken Kison.
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.
Og Debora sagde til Barak: Staa op, thi dette er den Dag, paa hvilken Herren har givet Sisera i din Haand; er Herren ikke dragen ud for dit Ansigt? Saa drog Barak ned af Bjerget Thabor, og de ti Tusinde Mænd efter ham.
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.
Da forfærdede Herren Sisera og alle Vognene og al Hæren ved skarpe Sværd for Baraks Ansigt; og Sisera steg af Vognen og flyede til Fods.
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.
Men Barak forfulgte Vognene og Hæren indtil Haroseth Hagojim; og hele Siseras Lejr faldt for skarpe Sværd, der blev end ikke een tilovers.
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;
Men Sisera flyede til Fods til Jaels, Keniteren Hebers Hustrus, Telt, thi der var Fred imellem Jabin, Kongen af Hazor, og imellem Keniteren Hebers Hus.
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.
Da gik Jael ud imod Sisera og sagde til ham: Tag ind, min Herre! tag ind til mig, frygt ikke; og han tog ind til hende i Teltet, og hun dækkede ham til med et By.
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.
Og han sagde til hende: Kære, giv mig lidt Vand at drikke, thi jeg tørster; da aabnede hun en Mælkeflaske og lod ham drikke og dækkede ham til.
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.”
Og han sagde til hende: Stil dig ved Døren af Teltet, og sker det, at der kommer nogen og spørger dig og siger: Er her nogen? da skal du sige: Her er ingen.
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.
Da tog Jael, Hebers Hustru, en Teltnagel og tog en Hammer i sin Haand og gik ind til ham sagteligen og slog Naglen igennem hans Tinding, at den gik ned i Jorden (thi han sov haardt og var træt), og han døde.
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.
Og se, der Barak forfulgte Sisera, da gik Jael ud imod ham og sagde til ham: Kom, saa vil jeg vise dig den Mand, som du søger efter; og han kom ind til hende, og se, Sisera laa der og var død, og Naglen sad i hans Tinding.
23 And God humbles Jabin king of Canaan before the sons of Israel on that day,
Saa ydmygede Gud paa den Dag Jabin, Kanaans Konge, for Israels Børns Ansigt.
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.
Og Israels Børns Haand fik Fremgang og blev haard over Jabin, Kanaans Konge, indtil de fik Jabin, Kanaans Konge, udryddet.
