< Judges 4 >

1 The children of Israel again did that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah, when Ehud was dead.
Ehud a due hnukkhu hoi Isarelnaw ni Cathut hmalah hno kahawihoeh bout a sak awh.
2 Jehovah sold them into the hand of Jabin king of Canaan, who reigned in Hazor; the captain of whose army was Sisera, who lived in Harosheth Haggoyim.
BAWIPA ni Kanaan ram Hazor kho dawk siangpahrang lah kaawm e Jabin koe a yo awh. A ransabawi teh Harosheth-hagoyim kaawm e Sisera doeh.
3 The children of Israel cried to Jehovah: for he had nine hundred chariots of iron; and twenty years he mightily oppressed the children of Israel.
Hahoi teh, Isarelnaw ni Bawipa koe kabawpnae a hei awh teh a kaw awh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Jabin ni sumrangleng 900 touh a tawn. Isarelnaw teh kum 20 touh thung puenghoi a rektap awh.
4 Now Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lappidoth, she judged Israel at that time.
Hatnae tueng dawkvah Lappidoth tami profet napui Deborah teh, Isarelnaw hah a uk.
5 She lived under the palm tree of Deborah between Ramah and Bethel in the hill country of Ephraim: and the children of Israel came up to her for judgment.
Ephraim mon dawk e hmuen, Ramah hoi Bethel rahak kaawm koe Deborah teh samtue rahim vah a tahung teh, haw hoiyah Isarelnaw lawk ouk a ceng.
6 She sent and called Barak the son of Abinoam out of Kedesh Naphtali, and said to him, "Hasn't Jehovah, the God of Israel, commanded, 'Go and draw to Mount Tabor, and take with you ten thousand men of the people of Naphtali and of the people of Zebulun?
Tami a patoun teh, Abinoam capa Barak hah Naphtali ram Kedesh kho hoi a kaw teh, nang ni, Naphtali miphun, Zebulun miphun dawk e tami 10, 000 touh Tabor mon koe pâkhueng awh.
7 I will draw to you, to the river Kishon, Sisera, the captain of Jabin's army, with his chariots and his multitude; and I will deliver him into your hand.'"
Jabin ransabawi kalenpounge Sisera teh a marangnaw, a kaw e naw khuehoi nang na dawn hanelah, Kishion tui teng vah ka hrawi vaiteh, ahni teh na kut dawk na poe han telah, Isarelnaw e BAWIPA Cathut ni lawk na thui atipouh.
8 Barak said to her, "If you will go with me, then I will go; but if you will not go with me, I will not go, for I do not know the day on which Jehovah prospers his angel with me."
Hahoi Barak ni ahnimouh koe, na cetkhai pawiteh ka cei van han, na cet hoehpawiteh ka cet van mahoeh atipouh.
9 She said, "I will surely go with you, but know that the journey that you take will not be for your honor; for Jehovah will sell Sisera into the hand of a woman." Deborah arose, and went with Barak to Kedesh.
Hahoi ahnimouh ni, na ceikhai roeroe han. Hatei na ceinae lamthung ni nama teh minhmai kahawi na hmawt mahoeh. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA ni Sisera teh napui buet touh e kut dawk a yo han telah ati. Hathnukkhu, a thaw teh, Barak hoi Kedesh kholah a cei.
10 Barak called Zebulun and Naphtali together to Kedesh; and there went up ten thousand men at his feet: and Deborah went up with him.
Barak ni Zebulun hoi Naphtali hah Kedesh vah a kaw teh, tami 10, 000 touh a cei teh Deborah hai a kâbang van.
11 Now Heber the Kenite had separated himself from the Kenites, even from the descendants of Hobab the brother-in-law of Moses, and had pitched his tent as far as the oak in Zaanannim, which is by Kedesh.
Ken miphun Heber teh, Mosi e a masei napui Hobab e catoun, Ken miphunnaw hoi a kampek awh teh Kedesh teng, Zaanannim kaawm e kathen kung koe, rim a sak teh ao awh.
12 And it was reported to Sisera that Barak the son of Abinoam had gone up to Mount Tabor.
Abinoam capa Barak teh, Tabor mon dawk a luen tie Sisera koe a dei pouh toteh,
13 Sisera gathered together all his chariots, even nine hundred chariots of iron, and all the people who were with him, from Harosheth Haggoyim, to the river Kishon.
Sisera ni marang a tawn e naw hoi, a tawn e sumrangleng 900 touh hoi Harosheth-hagoyim hoi Kishion palang totouh a taminaw a pâkhueng.
14 Deborah said to Barak, "Arise, for this is the day in which Jehovah has delivered Sisera into your hand. Hasn't Jehovah gone out before you?" So Barak went down from Mount Tabor, and ten thousand men after him.
Deborah ni Barak teh, thaw haw, Sisera teh BAWIPA ni na kut dawk poenae hnin a pha toe. BAWIPA teh na hmalah yo a cei toe vaiyaw telah atipouh. Barak ni Tabor mon dawk hoi a hnukkâbang tami 10, 000 touh hoi a cathuk sin.
15 Jehovah confused Sisera, and all his chariots, and all his army, with the edge of the sword before Barak; and Sisera got off from his chariot, and fled away on his feet.
Hahoi, BAWIPA ni Sisera hoi a marangnaw hoi a ransanaw pueng teh, Barak hmalah koung a thei pouh. Sisera ma teh, amae rangleng dawk hoi a kum teh, a khok hoi a yawng.
16 But Barak pursued after the chariots, and after the army, to Harosheth Haggoyim: and all the army of Sisera fell by the edge of the sword; there was not a man left.
Hahoi Barak ni rangleng hoi ransanaw hoi Harosheth-hagoyim kho totouh a pâlei teh, Sisera ransanaw pueng teh tahloi hoi he a thei awh. Buet touh boehai hlout a hoeh.
17 However Sisera fled away on his feet to the tent of Jael the wife of Heber the Kenite; for there was peace between Jabin the king of Hazor and the house of Heber the Kenite.
Hateiteh, Sisera teh a khok hoi Ken tami Hiber e yu Jael e rim dawk a yawng. Bangkongtetpawiteh, Hazor siangpahrang Jabin hoi Ken tami Haber rim imthungkhunaw hoi a kâhuiko awh.
18 Jael went out to meet Sisera, and said to him, "Turn in, my lord, turn in to me; do not be afraid." He came in to her into the tent, and she covered him with a rug.
Jael ni Sisera kâhmo hanlah a tâco teh, bawipa kâen leih, kai koe kâenh, taket hanh atipouh. A rim thung a kâen sak teh, hni hai a khu.
19 He said to her, "Please give me a little water to drink; for I am thirsty." She opened a bottle of milk, and gave him drink, and covered him.
Hahoi ahni ni, pahren lahoi tui nei hane na poe haw, tui kahran poung atipouh. Hateh, napui ni, maito sanu bom a paawng teh a nei sak hnukkhu hni bout a khu.
20 He said to her, "Stand in the door of the tent, and it shall be, when any man comes and inquires of you, and says, 'Is there any man here?' that you shall say, 'No.'"
Hahoi ahni ni, tho koe kangdout nateh tami buetbuet touh ni tongpa hah ao maw telah na pacei pawiteh, awm hoeh telah tet pouh lah a, atipouh.
21 Then Jael Heber's wife took a tent peg, and took a hammer in her hand, and went softly to him, and struck the pin into his temples, and it pierced through into the ground; for he was in a deep sleep; so he died.
Hatei, Haber e a yu Jael ni rim a hetnae cawt hoi cakkin a la teh, ngawt a tawn dawk a i lahun nah, arulahoi duem a cei sin teh, a hnâlakheng dawk pawk a het pouh teh, talai dawk moncawm a um, hateh a due.
22 Look, as Barak pursued Sisera, Jael came out to meet him, and said to him, "Come, and I will show you the man whom you seek." He came to her; and look, Sisera lay dead, and the tent peg was in his temples.
Khenhaw! Barak ni Sisera a pâlei navah, Jael ni kâhmo hanlah a tâco sin teh, tho leih, na tawng e tami teh na patue han atipouh teh, Barak rim thung a kâen navah, Sisera teh a hnâlakheng dawk cawt hoi pawk kâpâcue lah ao e hah a hmu.
23 So God subdued on that day Jabin the king of Canaan before the children of Israel.
Hat hnin vah, BAWIPA ni Kanaan siangpahrang Jabin teh, Isarelnaw hmalah a sung sak.
24 The hand of the children of Israel prevailed more and more against Jabin the king of Canaan, until they had destroyed Jabin king of Canaan.
Isarelnaw teh a tha hoehoe ao awh teh, a hnukteng vah Kanaan siangpahrang Jabin hah a raphoe awh.
