< Judges 4 >

1 And the children of Israel again did evil in the sight of the LORD, after Ehud was dead.
Ehud thinung in, Israelten Pakai mitmun thilse jeng abolkit tauvin.
2 And the LORD sold them into the hand of Jabin king of Canaan that reigned in Hazor, the captain of whose host [was] Sisera, who dwelt in Harosheth of the Gentiles.
Hijeh chun Pakaiyin Canaan mi Hajor lengpa Jabin khut’ah amaho chu apelut in, ama sepai lamkai chu Haresheth-haggoyim mi Sisera ahi.
3 And the children of Israel cried to the LORD; for he had nine hundred chariots of iron; and twenty years he mightily oppressed the children of Israel.
Siserah in thih sakol kangtalai jako aneiyin, kum somni sunga Israelte ana sugenthei lheh jeng in, hijeh chun Israelten Pakai koma panpi ngaiyin anakap tauvin ahi.
4 And Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lapidoth, she judged Israel at that time.
Hiche phatlai sunga chu Lappidoth jinu Deborah hi themgao ahin chule Israelte chunga thu anatana vai anahom ahi.
5 And she dwelt under the palm-tree of Deborah, between Ramah and Beth-el in mount Ephraim: and the children of Israel came up to her for judgment.
Themgaonu chu Ephraim thinglhang gam Ramah le Bethel kikah a tumphung lim noiya ana touji ahin, hiche muna chun Israelte anache jiuvin, amanu in achungthu anatan pehjiu ahi.
6 And she sent and called Barak the son of Abinoam from Kedesh-naphtali, and said to him, Hath not the LORD God of Israel commanded, [saying], Go, and draw towards mount Tabor, and take with thee ten thousand men of the children of Naphtali, and of the children of Zebulun?
Nikhat Deborah chun, Naphtali gama Kadesh khopia cheng Abinoam chapa Barak aga kousah in, ama koma chun hitin anaseiyin, “Hiche hi Israel Pathen in nathupeh ahi, nangman Naphtali leh Zebulun phunga kon in galsat mi sangsom Tabor molchunga hinkou khom in,
7 And I will draw to thee, to the river Kishon, Sisera the captain of Jabin's army, with his chariots and his multitude; and I will deliver him into thy hand.
Chutengleh keiman Jabin kiti lamkaipa le athih sakol kangtalai ho, chule agalmite chengse khu Kishon vadunga kakoudoh ding; chuteng amaho chunga galjona nangma kapeh ding ahi,” ati.
8 And Barak said to her, if thou wilt go with me, then I will go: but if thou wilt not go with me, [then] I will not go.
Barak in jong adonbut’in “Nangman neikilhonpi dingleh che nange,” ati.
9 And she said, I will surely go with thee: notwithstanding the journey that thou takest shall not be for thy honor; for the LORD will sell Sisera into the hand of a woman. And Deborah arose, and went with Barak to Kedesh.
Hichun Deborah in adonbut in, “Aphalheh jenge keiman kalhonpi ding nahi, ahinlah tuchung kalsonna a hi nangin minphatna namu louding ahi, ajeh chu Sisera chunga Pakaiyin galjona eipeh diu hi numei khutna kona bou hiding ahi”, ati. Hiti chun Deborah in Barak chu Kadesh geiyin ahin kilhon lutpi tai.
10 And Barak called Zebulun and Naphtali to Kedesh; and he went up with ten thousand men at his feet: and Deborah went up with him.
Kadesh a chun, Barak in Zebulun leh Naphtali phunga kon in galsat mi sangsom akou khom in amahon ahin juiyun, Deborah injong akilhonpin ahi.
11 Now Heber the Kenite, [who was] of the children of Hobab the father-in-law of Moses, had severed himself from the Kenites, and pitched his tent to the plain of Zaanaim, which [is] by Kedesh.
Hikoma chun Mose nupapa Hobab chilhah holah a Ken mi Heber chun ama phung lah a konin apotdoh in, achombeh in Kadesh kom Zaanannim gangpi phung koma chun aponbuh ana songin ahi.
12 And they showed Sisera that Barak the son of Abinoam had gone up to mount Tabor.
Sisera jah a chu Abinoam chapa Barak chu Tabor mol chunga akaltoutai, tia aseiphat uvin,
13 And Sisera collected all his chariots, [even] nine hundred chariots of iron, and all the people that [were] with him, from Harosheth of the Gentiles to the river of Kishon.
Aman thih sakol kangtalai jako leh a-sepai jouse akoudoh in Harosheth-haggoyim ana kon in Kishon vadung geiya ahung tou un ahi.
14 And Deborah said to Barak, Arise, for this [is] the day in which the LORD hath delivered Sisera into thy hand: hath not the LORD gone out before thee? So Barak went down from mount Tabor, and ten thousand men after him.
Hichun Deborah in Barak koma aseiyin, “Kigosadem’in um'in tunia hi Pakaiyin Sisera chunga galjona napeh ding ahi, ajeh chu Pakai hi namasanga akalsong tan ahi,” ati. Hiti chun Barak in galsat ding mi sangsom chu alamkaiyin Tabor mola konchun akum suh tauvin galmun chu ajonlut tauve.
15 And the LORD discomfited Sisera, and all [his] chariots, and all [his] host, with the edge of the sword before Barak; so that Sisera alighted from [his] chariot, and fled away on his feet.
Barak’in ahin nokhum phat chun Pakaiyin Sisera leh asakol kangtalai jouse leh agalsat ding jouse chu asuh nohphah pehtan, Sisera chu asakol kangtalai akon in aki chomlhan akengin ajamdoh tan ahi.
16 But Barak pursued the chariots, and the host, to Harosheth of the Gentiles: and all the host of Sisera fell upon the edge of the sword; [and] there was not a man left.
Hichun Barak in sakol kangtalai holeh agalmiho chu Harosheth-haggoyim changei chun adel lut in, Sisera galmi jouse chu athatgam soh hel'in khatcha ahing hoi tapon ahi.
17 Howbeit, 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.
Hiche kahlah chun Sisera chu Ken mi Heber jinu Ja’el ponbuh a anajam lut’in ahi, ajeh chu Heber insung mite leh Hazor lengpa Jabin chu jolle gol hina a ana kihou thei ahiuve.
18 And Jael went out to meet Sisera, and said to him, Turn in, my lord, turn in to me; fear not. And when he had turned in to her into the tent, she covered him with a mantle.
Jael chu apotdoh in Sisera chu akimu pin akoma hitin anaseiye, “Kaponbuh sunga hunglut’in, kapu kichalou hel'in hung lut in ati. Hiti chun aponbuh sunga ana lut’in aman ponsil ponkhat in ana khu khum’in ahi.
19 And he said to her, Give me, I pray thee, a little water to drink; for I am thirsty. And she opened a bottle of milk, and gave him drink, and covered him.
Hichun Sisera in Jael hengah chun, “Twidon ding themkhat neihinpen kadang achah behseh e,” ati. Hiti chun amanun savun peng sunga bongnoi themkhat chu anapen pon chu akhu khum kit in ahi.
20 Again he said to her, stand in the door of the tent, and it shall be, when any man doth come and inquire of thee, and say, Is there any man here? that thou shalt say, No.
Hichun Sisera’n amanu koma chun, “Ponbuh kot phung koma chun ding inlang koitobang hamkhat ahunga na-in sung’a mi khattou um am tia ahung holleh aumpoi tin,” ati.
21 Then Jael, Heber's wife, took a nail of the tent, and took a hammer in her hand, and went softly to him, and smote the nail into his temples, and fastened it into the ground: for he was fast asleep, and weary. So he died.
Ahinlah Sisera chu athachol behseh jeh a a-imut mil hel phat chun Jael chun, thih hemkhat akhutna achoijin ama koma chun guhthim chan alut in hichun ponbuh thih hemchu achalpanga akhen lut in toltoh akhen mat jengin ahileh ama athitan ahi.
22 And behold, as Barak pursued Sisera, Jael came out to meet him, and said to him, Come, and I will show thee the man whom thou seekest. And when he came into her [tent], behold, Sisera lay dead, and the nail [was] in his temples.
Barak chu Sisera hola ahung chun Jael chu apotdoh in akimupin hitin aseiye, “Hungin namihol chu keiman navetsah inge” ati. Hiti chun aman ponbuh sunga chun ajuilut in ahileh, Sisera chu achalpanga ponbuh thih kikhenlutna athisa alupchu agamu in ahi.
23 So God subdued on that day Jabin the king of Canaan before the children of Israel.
Hiche nikho chun Canaan lengpa Jabin chu Pakaiyin ajopeh tauve ti Israel ten amuchen tauvin ahi.
24 And the hand of the children of Israel prospered, and prevailed against Jabin the king of Canaan, until they had destroyed Jabin king of Canaan.
Hiche nikhoa pat chun Israelte chu Jabin lengpa dounan ahung hatdoh un ajonan asumang hel tauvin ahi.
