< Judges 5 >

1 Then Deborah and Barak the son of Abinoam sang on that day, saying,
Hat nah hnin vah, Deborah hoi Abinoam capa Barak ni la a sak roi.
2 "Because the leaders took the lead in Israel, because the people offered themselves willingly, be blessed, YHWH.
Kahrawikung bawinaw ni Isarelnaw a hrawi teh, taminaw ni amamouh lungthocalah hoi a kâhmoun awh teh, BAWIPA teh a pholen awh.
3 "Hear, you kings. Give ear, you princes. I, even I, will sing to YHWH. I will sing praise to YHWH, the God of Israel.
Oe siangpahrangnaw thai awh haw, Oe bawinaw thai awh haw, BAWIPA koe la ka sak vai, Isarelnaw e BAWIPA Cathut koe la hoi ka pholen vai.
4 "YHWH, when you went forth out of Seir, when you marched out of the field of Edom, the earth trembled, the sky also dropped. Yes, the clouds dropped water.
BAWIPA nang ni Sisera mon lahoi na tho teh, Edom kahrawng hoi taran na tuk navah, talai a kâhuet teh, tâmai dawk hoi kho thouk na rak sak.
5 The mountains quaked at the presence of YHWH, even Sinai, at the presence of YHWH, the God of Israel.
BAWIPA hmalah monnaw teh a kâhuet. Isarelnaw e BAWIPA Cathut hmalah vah, Sinai mon a kâhuet.
6 "In the days of Shamgar the son of Anath, in the days of Jael, the highways were unoccupied. The travelers walked through byways.
Anath capa Shamgar se nah, Jael se nahaiyah lamthungnaw teh kingdi dawkvah, kahlawng kacetnaw ni lamtalawi dawk hoi a cei awh.
7 The rulers ceased in Israel. They ceased until I, Deborah, arose; Until I arose a mother in Israel.
Isarel miphunnaw koe bawi kâkuen laipalah ao. Kai Deborah ka tâco hoehnahlan, Isarel miphun dawk a manu a tâco hoeh nah totouh, bawi kâkuen laipalah ao.
8 They chose new gods. Then war was in the gates. Was there a shield or spear seen among forty thousand in Israel?
Isarelnaw ni cathut kathanaw hah a kârawi awh. Hat toteh, ahnimae khopuinaw hah tarannaw ni a tuk pouh awh.
9 My heart is toward the leaders of Israel, who offered themselves willingly among the people. Bless YHWH.
Isarel miphun 40, 000 touh teh, bahling, tahroe buet touh hai tawn awh hoeh.
10 "Speak, you who ride on white donkeys, you who sit on saddle blankets, and you who walk by the way.
Nangmouh marang pangaw dawk kâcuinaw, kalan lah lawkcengkungnaw, lam dawk na ka cet e naw,
11 Far from the noise of archers, in the places of drawing water, there they will rehearse the righteous acts of YHWH, the righteous acts of his rule in Israel. "Then the people of YHWH went down to the gates.
a coe awh e hnopainaw hah, tuido teng a kârei awh e lawk na thai awh navah, la sak awh. BAWIPA e lannae, Isarel khocanaw koe lannae lahoi thaw tawknae naw hah hote hmuen koe a pholen awh han. Hahoi teh, amamouh onae kho koelah, BAWIPA e taminaw teh bout a ban awh toe.
12 'Awake, awake, Deborah. Awaken the multitudes of a nation. Awake, awake, sing a song. Be strong. Arise, Barak. And Deborah, strengthen Barak. And lead away your captives, son of Abinoam.'
Kâhlaw leih, kâhlaw leih, Deborah kâhlaw leih. Kâhlaw leih, la sak leih. Tho haw Barak, na man e taminaw hah thokhai haw, Oe Abinoam capa.
13 "Then a remnant of the nobles came down. The people of YHWH marched down to me against the mighty.
Na man awh e taminaw thokhai haw. Kacawie naw teh ransanaw koe a ban awh. BAWIPA e taminaw ni a tha kaawm, athakaawme taminaw tuk hanlah kai hanlah a cei awh.
14 From Ephraim those who uprooted Amalek came out, following you, Benjamin, among your peoples; out of Makir leaders came down, and out of Zebulun those that handle the staff of office.
Amalek tengpam kaawm e naw niyah, Ephraim hoi a kamthaw awh. Ahnimae hnuklah, na ransabawinaw thung dawk e Benjaminnaw teh a kâbang awh. Makhir bawinaw, Zebulun kâ kapoekungnaw teh a kamthaw awh.
15 And the princes of Issachar were with Deborah. As was Issachar, so was Barak. They rushed into the valley at his feet. By the watercourses of Reuben, there were great resolves of heart.
Issakhar bawi hai Deborah hoi a tho teh, Issakhar teh Barak ni a kâuep e lah ao awh. Barak hnuk vah ayawn dawk a pâlei awh. Reuben miphunnaw teh lungthin kâounnae a tawn awh.
16 Why did you sit among the sheepfolds, to hear the piping for the flocks? At the divisions of Reuben there were great searchings of heart.
Nang ni tu hram lawk thai hanelah, bangkongmaw mon rahak vah sut na tahung. Reuben miphunnaw teh lung koung a samphei awh.
17 Gilead lived beyond the Jordan. Why did Dan remain in ships? Asher sat still at the haven of the sea, and lived by his harbors.
Gilead teh Jordan namran lah ao. Dannaw teh long kâhatnae koe bangkongmaw sut ao awh vaw. Ashernaw teh long kâhatnae koe a kongteng vah, kâroe laipalah bangkongmaw sut ao rumram awh vaw.
18 Zebulun was a people that risked their lives even to death; Naphtali also, on the high places of the field.
Zebulunnaw teh hring poe ditouh a lungsa awh. Naphtalinaw hai ka rasang e kahrawngnaw dawk a lungsa awh.
19 The kings came and fought, then the kings of Canaan fought at Taanach by the waters of Megiddo. They took no plunder of silver.
Siangpahrangnaw ni a tho awh teh, a tuk awh. Kanaan siangpahrangnaw ni Megiddo tui Taanakh kho teng a tuk awh ei, sui ngun hnopai lawm thai awh hoeh.
20 From the sky the stars fought. From their courses, they fought against Sisera.
Kalvan lahoi taran tuk a kabawp awh teh, Âsinaw a kâhei awh navah, Sisera teh a tuk awh.
21 The river Kishon swept them away, that ancient river, the river Kishon. My soul, march on with strength.
Ahnimanaw teh kalawng e Kishion tui ni he a pâyo awh. Oe ka muitha nang ni athakasaipoung e na tâ toe.
22 Then the horse hoofs pounded because of the galloping, the galloping of their steeds.
Hat toteh, marangransanaw ni marangnaw a yawng sak awh teh, marangnaw ni talai hah khoktabei hoi a takhawi laihoi a yawng awh.
23 Curse Meroz, said the angel of YHWH. Curse bitterly its inhabitants, because they did not come to help YHWH, to help YHWH against the mighty.
Meroz teh thoebo hottelah BAWIPA e kalvantami ni ati. Athung e kaawm e puenghai thoebo haw. Bangkongtetpawiteh, BAWIPA a kabawp hoeh dawk doeh. Athakaawme tuk han BAWIPA kabawp hoeh dawkvah.
24 Jael shall be blessed above women, the wife of Heber the Kenite; blessed shall she be above women in the tent.
Ken tami, Heber e a yu Jael teh, napui thung dawk a yawkahawipoung e lah awmseh. Rim thung kaawm e napui thung dawk, a yawkahawipoung e lah awmseh.
25 He asked for water. She gave him milk. She brought him curds in a princely bowl.
Tui a hei nah, Jael ni maito sanutui a pânei. Bawi manang dawk hoi maito sanutui a poe.
26 She put her hand to the tent peg, and her right hand to the workmen's hammer. She struck Sisera, she pierced his head; she shattered and struck through his temple.
Rim hetnae cawt a la teh, aranglae kut hoi thaw tawknae cakkin hoi Sisera teh a hem teh, a hnâlakheng dawk pawkkayawng lah a hem.
27 At her feet he collapsed, he fell, he lay. At her feet he collapsed, he fell. Where he collapsed, there he fell down, destroyed.
A khok koe a rawp teh a rawpnae hmuen koe a due.
28 Through the window she looked out. Sisera's mother cried out through the lattice, 'Why is his chariot so long in coming? Why are the hoofbeats of his chariots delayed?'
Hlalangaw dawk hoi a khet teh Sisera manu ni a khui. Bangkongmaw ahnie sumranglengnaw teh, bangkongmaw a tho hnai hoeh. Rangleng khoknaw teh bangkongmaw a hnawng telah a khui.
29 Her wise princesses answered her; indeed, she answers herself,
A lungkaang e napuinaw ni a dei pouh e hloilah, amahoima ni a kâpathung e teh,
30 'Have they not found, have they not divided the spoil? A womb or two for every man; to Sisera a spoil of dyed garments, A spoil of dyed garments embroidered, Of dyed garments embroidered on both sides, for the neck of the plunderer?'
amamouh ni a hmu awh e hnonaw a kârei awh mue toe. Ransanaw koe tanglakacuem buet touh hoehpawiteh kahni touh, Sisera hanlah, asî bu e khohna, a em kaawm lah asî bu e khohna, a lahuen dawk awi hane, ka talue e khohna hah a lawp awh teh, a kârei awh mue toe telah ouk a khui.
31 So let all your enemies perish, YHWH, but let those who love you be as the sun when it rises forth in its strength." And the land had rest forty years.
Hot patetlah a tarannaw pueng teh, be rawk naseh. Hateiteh, BAWIPA ka lungpataw naw teh kanî a tâco e patetlah, a tho onae hah kho lah yansei seh, telah la a sak awh. Hahoi hote ram teh kum 40 touh a roum.
