Judges 4
1 And the sons of Israel add to do evil in the eyes of YHWH when Ehud is dead,
Mgbe Ehud nwụsịrị, ụmụ Izrel mekwara ihe ọjọọ megide Onyenwe anyị.
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;
Nʼihi ya, Onyenwe anyị renyere ha nʼaka Jabin, eze Kenan, onye chịrị nʼobodo Hazọ. Aha onyeisi ndị agha ya bụ Sisera, onye bi nʼobodo a na-akpọ Heroshet Hagoyim.
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.
Nʼihi na o nwere narị ụgbọ agha igwe itoolu, ma megbukwaa ụmụ Izrel nke ukwu iri afọ abụọ, ha tikuru Onyenwe anyị mkpu akwa, ka o nyere ha aka.
4 And Deborah, a woman, a prophetess, wife of Lapidoth, she is judging Israel at that time,
Nʼoge a, Debọra, bụ nwanyị na-ebu amụma, nwunye Lapidọt bụ onyendu ụmụ Izrel.
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.
Ọ na-anọ nʼokpuru osisi nkwụ a na-akpọ Nkwụ Debọra, nke dị nʼagbata Rema na Betel, bụ nʼala ugwu ugwu Ifrem na-ekpe ikpe. Nʼebe ahụ ka ụmụ Izrel na-ejekwuru ya ka o doziere ha okwu ha niile.
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,
O ziri ozi kpọọ Barak, nwa Abinoam, onye bi nʼobodo Kedesh, nke dị nʼime Naftalị, ọ sịrị ya, “Onyenwe anyị Chineke ụmụ Izrel na-enye gị iwu, ‘Gaa chịkọtaa puku ndị agha iri bụ ndị sitere nʼebo Naftalị na Zebụlọn, duru ha jeruo ugwu Taboa.
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.”
Aga m edute Sisera, ọchịagha ndị agha Jabin, mee ka ọ bịaruo nso iyi ukwu Kishọn, ya na ụgbọ agha ya niile na ndị agha ya niile ma nyefee ha nʼaka gị.’”
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 sịrị ya, “Ejikeere m ịga ma ọ bụrụ na ị ga-eso m. Ọ bụrụkwanụ na ị jụ iso m, agaghị m aga.”
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.
Debọra sịrị, “Aghaghị m isoro gị jee ma nʼihi mkpebi gị nʼihe a, nsọpụrụ agaghị abụ nke gị, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị ga-enyefe Sisera nʼaka nwanyị.” Ya mere, Debọra biliri soro Barak jee obodo Kedesh.
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.
Barak sitere nʼebo Zebụlọn na Naftalị kpọkọtaa ndị ikom ga-eso ya jee agha ahụ, puku ndị agha iri ndị dịnyere ya. Debọra sokwa ya jee.
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.
Nʼoge a, Heba, onye Ken, ahapụla ndị Ken ndị ọzọ, ndị bụ ụmụ ụmụ Hobab, nwanne nwunye Mosis gaa maa ụlọ ikwu ya nʼokpuru osisi ukwu dị na Zaananim, nke dị nso Kedesh.
12 And they declare to Sisera that Barak son of Abinoam has gone up to Mount Tabor,
Mgbe ha gwara Sisera na Barak nwa Abinoam arịgorola nʼelu ugwu Taboa,
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 kpọkọtara ndị agha ya niile, tinyere narị ụgbọ agha itoolu ya, site na Haroshet Haroyim gaa nʼiyi ukwu Kishọn.
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.
Mgbe ahụ, Debọra sịrị Barak, “Gaa nʼihu! Taa bụ ụbọchị nke Onyenwe anyị nyefere Sisera nʼaka gị. Ọ bụ na Onyenwe anyị apụbeghị jee nʼihu gị?” Nʼihi nke a, Barak duuru puku ndị agha iri ahụ gbada ndịda ugwu Taboa.
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.
Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị jiri mma agha ya chụsaa Sisera na ndị agha ya na ụgbọ agha igwe ha nʼihu Barak. Sisera nʼonwe ya hapụrụ ụgbọ agha ya jiri ụkwụ gbapụ ọsọ.
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.
Barak na ndị agha ya chụrụ ndị agha ahụ ọsọ, ha na ụgbọ agha igwe ha niile, chụruo ha Haroshet Hagoyim. Ha ji mma agha tigbuo ndị agha Sisera niile. Ọ dịkwaghị otu onye nʼime ha fọdụrụ ndụ.
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;
Ma Sisera gbapụrụ ọsọ gaa zoo onwe ya nʼụlọ ikwu Jael, nwunye Heba, onye Ken. Nʼihi udo dị nʼetiti eze Jabin, onye Hazọ, na ndị ezinaụlọ Heba, onye Ken.
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.
Jael pụrụ ije zute Sisera sị ya, “Bịa Onyenwe m, bakwute m. Atụla ụjọ.” Ya mere na ọ bara nʼime ụlọ ikwu ya, o weere akwa ịchụ oyi kpuchie ya.
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.
Mgbe ahụ, ọ sịrị ya, “Akpịrị na-akpọ m nkụ, nyetụ m mmiri ka m ṅụọ.” O meghere karama akpụkpọ mmiri ara ehi, nye ya ihe ọṅụṅụ, jirikwa akwa ahụ sachie ya.
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 gwara nwanyị ahụ bụ Jael okwu sị, “Guzo nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ a. Ọ bụrụ na onye ọbụla abịa jụọ gị, ‘O nwere onye gbabatara nʼebe a?’ sị ya, ‘Mba.’”
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.
Ike gwụrụ nnọọ Sisera. Mgbe ahụ, ọ malitere ịrahụ ụra, Jael, nwunye Heba, wepụtara otu ǹtu e ji a kpọgide ụlọ ikwu ahụ nʼala, werekwa mkpirisi igwe nʼaka ya. O jiri nwayọọ jekwuuru Sisera ebe o dina na-arahụ ụra, kpọọ ya ǹtu ahụ nʼegedege ihu ya. Otu a ka Sisera si nwụọ.
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.
Mgbe Barak bịara ịchọ Sisera, Jael jekwuru ya sị, “Bịa ka m gosi gị nwoke ahụ ị na-achọ.” Barak sooro ya jee, ma lee, Sisera anwụọlarị site na ǹtu ahụ a kpọrọ ya nʼisi.
23 And God humbles Jabin king of Canaan before the sons of Israel on that day,
Nʼụbọchị ahụ, Chineke meriri Jabin, eze ndị Kenan nʼihu ụmụ Izrel.
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.
Aka ụmụ Izrel bụ nke dị ike na-adịkwa ike nke ukwu megide Jabin bụ eze Kenan ruo mgbe ha lara ya nʼiyi.
