Judges 5
1 On that day, Deborah sang this song, along with Barak:
Iti dayta nga aldaw, kinanta ni Debora ken Barak a putot a lalaki ni Abinoam daytoy a kanta:
2 “When the leaders of the Israeli people really lead them, and the people follow them, [it is time to] praise Yahweh!
“Idi nangidaulo dagiti mangidadaulo ti Israel, idi situtulok a nakigubat dagiti tattao—idaydayawtayo ni Yahweh!
3 Listen, you kings! Pay attention, you leaders! I will sing to Yahweh. With this song I will praise Yahweh, the God we Israelis worship.
Dumngegkayo, dakayo nga ar-ari! Agdengngegkayo, dakayo a mangidadaulo! Siak, agkantaak kenni Yahweh; Agkantaak iti pangdaydayaw kenni Yahweh a Dios ti Israel.
4 O Yahweh, when you came from Seir, when you marched from that land [better known as] Edom, the earth shook, and rain poured down from the skies.
O Yahweh, idi rimmuarka manipud Seir, idi nagnaka manipud Edom, naggun-gon ti daga, ken nagpigerger met dagiti tangatang; nagibuyat met iti danum dagiti ulep.
5 The mountains shook when you came, just like Sinai Mountain shook when you appeared there, because you are Yahweh, the God whom we Israelis worship.
Naggin-gined dagiti bantay iti sangoanan ti rupa ni Yahweh; naggin-gined uray ti Bantay Sinai iti sangoanan ti rupa ni Yahweh a Dios ti Israel.
6 “When Shamgar was our leader and when Jael ruled us, [we were afraid to walk on] the main roads; instead, caravans of travelers walked on winding [less traveled] roads [to avoid being molested].
Kadagiti al-aldaw ni Samgar (putot a lalaki ni Anat), kadagiti al-aldaw ni Jael, napanawan dagiti kangrunaan a daldalan, ket magna laeng dagiti agdaldaliasat kadagiti nalikaw a pagnaan.
7 People left their small villages, [and moved into the walled cities] until I, Deborah, became their leader. [I became like] a mother to the Israeli people.
Awanen dagiti taga-away idiay Israel, agingga a siak, a ni Debora, nangidauloak—maysa nga ina ti nangidaulo iti Israel!
8 When the Israeli people [abandoned Yahweh and] chose new gods, enemies attacked the gates of the cities, and then [they took away] the shields and spears from 40,000 Israeli soldiers. Not one shield or spear was left.
Pinilida dagiti baro a dios, ken adda panagraranget kadagiti ruangan ti siudad; awan iti kalasag wenno gayang a makita kadagiti uppat a pulo a ribu iti Israel.
9 I am thankful for the leaders and soldiers who volunteered [to fight]. Praise Yahweh [for them!]
Adda ti pusok kadagiti pangulo ti Israel, kasta met kadagiti tattao a situtulok a nakigubat—idaydayawtayo ni Yahweh gapu kadakuada!
10 “You wealthy people who ride on donkeys, sitting on nice padded saddles, and you people who just walk on the road, you all listen!
Panunotenyo daytoy—dakayo nga agsaksakay kadagiti puraw nga asno nga agtugtugaw kadagiti napuskol a lupot iti silyeta, ken dakayo a magmagna iti dalan.
11 Listen to the voices of the singers who gather at the places where [the animals drink] water. They tell about how Yahweh acted righteously when he enabled the Israeli warriors to conquer [their enemies]. “Yahweh’s people marched down to the gates of our city.
Denggenyo dagiti timek dagiti mangbingbingay kadagiti karnero kadagiti disso a paginuman. Ibagada manen sadiay dagiti nalinteg nga ar-aramid ni Yahweh, ken dagiti nalinteg a tigtignay dagiti mannakigubatna iti Israel. Kalpasanna, simmalog dagiti tattao ni Yahweh kadagiti ruangan iti siudad.
12 The people came to my house and shouted, ‘Deborah, wake up! Wake up and start singing!’ They also shouted, ‘Barak, son of Abinoam, get up, and capture our enemies!’
Agriingka, agriingka, Debora! Agriingka, agriingka, agkantaka! Tumakderka Barak, ket tiliwem dagiti baludmo, sika a putot a lalaki ni Abinoam.
13 Later, some of the Israeli people came down [from Tabor Mountain] with us, their leaders. These men who belonged to Yahweh came with me to fight their strong enemies.
Ket simmalog dagiti nakalasat kadagiti natakneng—simmalog dagiti tattao ni Yahweh kaniak manipud kadagiti mannakigubat.
14 Some came from the tribe descended from Ephraim. They came from land that once belonged to the descendants of Amalek. And men from the tribe descended from Benjamin followed them. Troops from the group descended from Makir also came down, and officers from the tribe descended from Zebulun came down, carrying staffs.
Naggapuda idiay Efraim, isuda dagiti adda ti ramutna iti Amalek; sinurotdakayo dagiti tattao ti Benjamin. Simmalog dagiti pangulo manipud Makir, ken simmalog manipud Zabulon dagiti mangaw-awit iti sarukod ti ofisial.
15 Leaders from the tribes descended from Issachar joined Barak and me. They followed Barak, rushing down into the valley. But men from the tribe descended from Reuben could not decide whether or not to join us.
Ken kadua ni Debora dagiti prinsipek manipud Issacar; ket kimmuyog ti Issacar kenni Barak nga agdardarasda a simmurot kenkuana iti tanap iti panangidaulona. Adda dakkel a panangsukimat iti puso kadagiti tribu ti Ruben.
16 Why did you men stay at your sheep pens, waiting to hear the shepherds whistle for their flocks of sheep to come to the pens? Men in the tribe descended from Reuben could not decide whether they would join us to fight our enemies, or not.
Apay nga agtugtugawka iti nagbaetan dagiti paginudoan, a dumdumngeg iti panangtokar dagiti agpaspastor kadagiti plautada para kadagiti arbanda? Kadagiti met puli ti Ruben, adda dakkel a panangsukimat iti puso.
17 Similarly, the men living in the Gilead area stayed at home, east of the Jordan River. And the men from the tribe descended from Dan, why did they stay home? The tribe descended from Asher sat by the seashore. They stayed in their coves.
Nagtalinaed ti Galaad iti bangir a paset ti Jordan; ket ni Dan, apay a nagal-alla kadagiti barko? Nagtalinaed ti Aser iti igid ti baybay ket nagnaed iti asideg dagiti sangladanna.
18 But men from the tribe descended from Zebulun risked (their lives/were ready to die fighting) on the battlefield, and men descended from Naphtali were ready to do that, also.
Ti Zabulon ket tribu a nakasagana a mangipusta iti biagda nga uray matayda ken kasta met ti Neftali iti paggugubatan.
19 “The kings of Canaan fought us at Taanach, near the springs in Megiddo [Valley]. [But since they did not defeat us], they did not carry away any silver or other treasures from the battle.
Immay ken nakiranget dagiti ari, ket nakiranget dagiti ari ti Canaan, idiay Taanac iti asideg dagiti dandanum ti Megiddo. Ngem awan sinamsamda nga uray maysa a pirak.
20 [It was as though] the stars in the sky fought for us [and as though] those stars in their paths fought against Sisera.
Nakiranget dagiti bituen manipud langit, manipud kadagiti dalanda kadagiti langit, nakirangetda maibusor kenni Sisera.
21 The Kishon River swept them away— that river that has been there for ages. I will tell myself to be brave and continue marching on.
Inyanud ida ti Karayan Kison, dayta a nabayagen a karayan, a Karayan Kison. Magnaka O kararuak, bumilegka!
22 The hooves of the horses of Sisera’s [army] pounded the ground. Those powerful horses kept galloping along.
Ket dumalagudog ti uni ti kuko dagiti kabalio—dumalagudog, ti dalagudog dagiti mamaingelna.
23 The angel sent by Yahweh said, ‘Curse the people of Meroz [town], because they did not come to help Yahweh to defeat the mighty warriors [of Canaan].’
'Ilunodyo ti Meroz!' kunkuna ti anghel ni Yahweh. 'Siguradoenyo nga ilunodyo dagiti agnanaed iti daytoy! —gapu ta saanda nga immay timmulong kenni Yahweh—tapno tumulong kenni Yahweh iti pannakigubat maibusor kadagiti nabileg a mannakigubat.'
24 “But God is very pleased with Jael, the wife of Heber from the Ken people-group. He is more pleased with her than with all the other women who live in tents.
Ad-adda a nabendisionan ni Jael ngem kadagiti amin a dadduma pay a babbai, ni Jael (nga asawa ni Heber a Kineo), ad-adda a nabendisionan isuna ngem kadagiti amin a babbai nga agnaed kadagiti tolda.
25 Sisera asked for some water, but Jael gave him some milk. She brought him some yogurt/curds in a bowl that was suitable for kings.
Dimmawat ti lalaki iti danum, ket inikkanna isuna iti gatas; inikkanna isuna iti mantikilia a naikarga iti mallukong a maikari kadagiti prinsipe.
26 Then, [when he was asleep], she reached for a tent peg with her left hand, and she reached for a hammer with her right hand. She hit Sisera hard with it and crushed his head. She pounded the tent peg right through his head.
Inkabilna ti imana iti pasok ti tolda, ken ti makannawan nga imana iti martilio ti agtrabtrabaho; babaen iti martilio, dinangranna ni Sisera, rinumekna ti ulona. Binurakna ti bangabangana idi tinudokna a simmalput iti pispisna.
27 He collapsed and fell dead at her feet.
Napasag isuna iti nagbaetan dagiti sakana, natuang isuna ket nagidda sadiay. Iti nagbaetan dagiti sakana ti nagkapsutanna. Ti lugar a nakapasaganna ket isu ti siraranggas a nakatayannna.
28 “Sisera’s mother looked out from her window. She waited for him to return. She said, ‘Why is he taking so long to come home in his chariot? Why don’t I hear the sound of the wheels of his chariot?’
Timman-aw isuna iti tawa—kimmita iti rehas ti tawa ti ina ni Sisera ket sililiday nga immawag, 'Apay a nagbayag a sumangpet ti karuahena? Apay a naitantan ti dalagudog dagiti kabalio a mangguyguyod kadagiti karuahena?'
29 One wise woman replied to her, and she [kept consoling herself by] repeating those words:
Simmungbat dagiti kasisiriban a prinsesana, ngem isu met laeng ti insungbatna iti bagina:
30 ‘Perhaps they are dividing up the things and the people they captured after the battle. Each soldier will get one or two women. Sisera will get some beautiful robes, and some beautiful embroidered robes for me.’
'Saanda kadi pay a nabirokan ken nabingbingay ti nasamsam? —Maysa nga aanakan, dua nga aanakan para iti tunggal lalaki; ti natinaan a lupot a nasamsam para kenni Sisera, ti nasamsam a natinaan a naburdaan a lupot, dua a pidaso ti natinaan a naburdaan a lupot para iti tengnged dagiti nagsamsam?'
31 But [that is not what happened]! Yahweh, I hope that all your enemies will die as Sisera did! And I desire that all those who love you will be as strong as the sun when it rises!
Mapukaw koma ngarud amin dagiti kabusormo, O Yahweh! Ngem agbalin koma dagiti mangayat kenkuana a kasla iti init no agsingising daytoy iti pigsana.” Ket naaddaan iti kapia ti daga iti uppat a pulo a tawen.
