Judges 5
1 And Deborah sings—also Barak son of Abinoam—on that day, saying,
那時，底波拉和亞比挪菴的兒子巴拉作歌，說：
2 “For freeing leaders in Israel, For a people willingly offering themselves, Bless YHWH.
因為以色列中有軍長率領， 百姓也甘心犧牲自己， 你們應當頌讚耶和華！
3 Hear, you kings; give ear, you princes, I sing to YHWH, I sing praise to YHWH, God of Israel.
君王啊，要聽！ 王子啊，要側耳而聽！ 我要向耶和華歌唱； 我要歌頌耶和華－以色列的上帝。
4 YHWH, in Your going forth out of Seir, In Your stepping out of the field of Edom, The earth trembled and the heavens dropped, And thick clouds dropped water.
耶和華啊，你從西珥出來， 由以東地行走。 那時地震天漏， 雲也落雨。
5 Hills flowed from the face of YHWH, This one—Sinai—From the face of YHWH, God of Israel.
山見耶和華的面就震動， 西奈山見耶和華－以色列上帝的面也是如此。
6 In the days of Shamgar son of Anath—In the days of Jael—The ways have ceased, And those going in the paths go [in] crooked ways.
在亞拿之子珊迦的時候， 又在雅億的日子， 大道無人行走， 都是繞道而行。
7 Villages ceased in Israel—they ceased, Until I arose—Deborah, That I arose, a mother in Israel.
以色列中的官長停職， 直到我底波拉興起， 等我興起作以色列的母。
8 He chooses new gods, Then war [is] at the gates! A shield is not seen—and a spear Among forty thousand in Israel.
以色列人選擇新神， 爭戰的事就臨到城門。 那時，以色列四萬人中 豈能見盾牌槍矛呢？
9 My heart [is] to the lawgivers of Israel, Who are offering themselves willingly among the people, Bless YHWH!
我心傾向以色列的首領， 他們在民中甘心犧牲自己。 你們應當頌讚耶和華！
10 Riders on white donkeys—Sitters on a long robe—And walkers by the way—meditate!
騎白驢的、坐繡花毯子的、行路的， 你們都當傳揚！
11 By the voice of shouters Between the places of drawing water, There they give out righteous acts of YHWH, Righteous acts of His villages in Israel, Then the people of YHWH have gone down to the gates.
在遠離弓箭響聲打水之處， 人必述說耶和華公義的作為， 就是他治理以色列公義的作為。 那時耶和華的民下到城門。
12 Awake, awake, Deborah; Awake, awake, utter a song; Rise, Barak, and take your captivity captive, Son of Abinoam.
底波拉啊，興起！興起！ 你當興起，興起，唱歌。 亞比挪菴的兒子巴拉啊，你當奮興， 擄掠你的敵人。
13 Then him who is left of the majestic ones He caused to rule the people of YHWH, He caused me to rule among the mighty.
那時有餘剩的貴冑和百姓一同下來； 耶和華降臨，為我攻擊勇士。
14 From Ephraim [are] those whose root [is] in Amalek, After you, Benjamin, among your peoples, From Machir lawgivers came down, And from Zebulun those drawing with the reed of a writer.
有根本在亞瑪力人的地， 從以法蓮下來的； 便雅憫在民中跟隨你。 有掌權的從瑪吉下來； 有持杖檢點民數的從西布倫下來；
15 And princes in Issachar [are] with Deborah, Indeed, Issachar [is] right with Barak, Into the valley he was sent on his feet. In the divisions of Reuben, The decrees of heart [are] great!
以薩迦的首領與底波拉同來； 以薩迦怎樣，巴拉也怎樣。 眾人都跟隨巴拉衝下平原； 在呂便的溪水旁有心中定大志的。
16 Why have you abided between the boundaries, To hear lowings of herds? For the divisions of Reuben, The searchings of heart [are] great!
你為何坐在羊圈內 聽群中吹笛的聲音呢？ 在呂便的溪水旁有心中設大謀的。
17 Gilead dwelt beyond the Jordan, And why does Dan sojourn [in] ships? Asher has abided at the haven of the seas, And dwells by his creeks.
基列人安居在約旦河外。 但人為何等在船上？ 亞設人在海口靜坐， 在港口安居。
18 Zebulun [is] a people who exposed its soul to death, Naphtali also—on high places of the field.
西布倫人是拚命敢死的； 拿弗他利人在田野的高處也是如此。
19 Kings came—they fought; Then kings of Canaan fought, In Taanach, by the waters of Megiddo; They did not take gain of money!
君王都來爭戰。 那時迦南諸王在米吉多水旁的他納爭戰， 卻未得擄掠銀錢。
20 They fought from the heavens: The stars fought with Sisera from their highways.
星宿從天上爭戰， 從其軌道攻擊西西拉。
21 The Brook of Kishon swept them away, The most ancient brook—the Brook of Kishon. You tread down strength, O my soul!
基順古河把敵人沖沒； 我的靈啊，應當努力前行。
22 Then the horse-heels were broken, By gallopings—gallopings of its mighty ones.
那時壯馬馳驅， 踢跳，奔騰。
23 Curse Meroz, said a messenger of YHWH, Cursing, curse its inhabitants! For they did not come to the help of YHWH, To the help of YHWH among the mighty!
耶和華的使者說： 應當咒詛米羅斯， 大大咒詛其中的居民； 因為他們不來幫助耶和華， 不來幫助耶和華攻擊勇士。
24 Above women is Jael, The wife of Heber the Kenite, She is blessed above women in the tent.
願基尼人希百的妻雅億比眾婦人多得福氣， 比住帳棚的婦人更蒙福祉。
25 He asked for water—she gave milk; She brought butter near in a lordly dish.
西西拉求水， 雅億給他奶子， 用寶貴的盤子給他奶油。
26 She sends forth her hand to the pin, And her right hand to the laborers’ hammer, And she hammered Sisera—she struck his head, Indeed, she struck, and it passed through his temple.
雅億左手拿着帳棚的橛子， 右手拿着匠人的錘子， 擊打西西拉， 打傷他的頭， 把他的鬢角打破穿通。
27 He bowed between her feet—He fell, he lay down; He bowed between her feet, he fell; Where he bowed, there he fell—destroyed.
西西拉在她腳前曲身仆倒， 在她腳前曲身倒臥； 在那裏曲身，就在那裏死亡。
28 She has looked out through the window—Indeed, she cries out—the mother of Sisera, Through the lattice: Why is his chariot delaying to come? Why have the steps of his chariot tarried?
西西拉的母親從窗戶裏往外觀看， 從窗櫺中呼叫說： 他的戰車為何耽延不來呢？ 他的車輪為何行得慢呢？
29 The wise ones, her princesses, answer her, Indeed, she returns her sayings to herself:
聰明的宮女安慰她， 她也自言自語地說：
30 Do they not find? They apportion spoil, A female—two females—for every head, Spoil of finger-work for Sisera, Spoil of embroidered finger-work, Finger-work—a pair of embroidered things, For the necks of the spoil!
他們莫非得財而分？ 每人得了一兩個女子？ 西西拉得了彩衣為擄物， 得繡花的彩衣為掠物。 這彩衣兩面繡花， 乃是披在被擄之人頸項上的。
31 So do all Your enemies perish, O YHWH, And those loving Him [are] As the going out of the sun in its might!” And the land rests [for] forty years.
耶和華啊， 願你的仇敵都這樣滅亡！ 願愛你的人如日頭出現，光輝烈烈！ 這樣，國中太平四十年。
