Judges 5
1 Then sang Deborah and Barak the son of Abinoam on that day, saying,
cecineruntque Debbora et Barac filius Abinoem in die illo dicentes
2 Praise ye the LORD for the avenging of Israel, when the people willingly offered themselves.
qui sponte obtulistis de Israhel animas vestras ad periculum benedicite Domino
3 Hear, O ye kings; give ear, O ye princes; I, [even] I, will sing to the LORD; I will sing [praise] to the LORD God of Israel.
audite reges percipite auribus principes ego sum ego sum quae Domino canam psallam Domino Deo Israhel
4 LORD, when thou wentest out of Seir, when thou marchedst out of the field of Edom, the earth trembled, and the heavens dropped, the clouds also dropped water.
Domine cum exires de Seir et transires per regiones Edom terra mota est caelique ac nubes stillaverunt aquis
5 The mountains melted from before the LORD, [even] that Sinai from before the LORD God of Israel.
montes fluxerunt a facie Domini et Sinai a facie Domini Dei Israhel
6 In the days of Shamgar the son of Anath, in the days of Jael, the highways were unoccupied, and the travelers walked through by-ways.
in diebus Samgar filii Anath in diebus Iahel quieverunt semitae et qui ingrediebantur per eas ambulaverunt per calles devios
7 [The inhabitants of] the villages ceased, they ceased in Israel, until that I Deborah arose, that I arose a mother in Israel.
cessaverunt fortes in Israhel et quieverunt donec surgeret Debbora surgeret mater in Israhel
8 They chose new gods; then [was] war in the gates: was there a shield or spear seen among forty thousand in Israel?
nova bella elegit Dominus et portas hostium ipse subvertit clypeus et hasta si apparuerint in quadraginta milibus Israhel
9 My heart [is] towards the governors of Israel that offered themselves willingly among the people: Bless ye the LORD.
cor meum diligit principes Israhel qui propria voluntate obtulistis vos discrimini benedicite Domino
10 Speak, ye that ride on white asses, ye that sit in judgment, and walk by the way.
qui ascenditis super nitentes asinos et sedetis in iudicio et ambulatis in via loquimini
11 [They that are delivered] from the noise of archers in the places of drawing water, there shall they rehearse the righteous acts of the LORD, [even] the righteous acts [towards the inhabitants] of his villages in Israel: then shall the people of the LORD go down to the gates.
ubi conlisi sunt currus et hostium est suffocatus exercitus ibi narrentur iustitiae Domini et clementia in fortes Israhel tunc descendit populus Domini ad portas et obtinuit principatum
12 Awake, awake, Deborah; awake, awake, utter a song: arise, Barak, and lead thy captivity captive, thou son of Abinoam.
surge surge Debbora surge surge et loquere canticum surge Barac et adprehende captivos tuos fili Abinoem
13 Then he made him that remaineth have dominion over the nobles among the people: the LORD made me have dominion over the mighty.
salvatae sunt reliquiae populi Dominus in fortibus dimicavit
14 Out of Ephraim [was there] a root of them against Amalek; after thee, Benjamin, among thy people; out of Machir came down governors, and out of Zebulun they that handle the pen of the writer.
ex Ephraim delevit eos in Amalech et post eum ex Beniamin in populos tuos o Amalech de Machir principes descenderunt et de Zabulon qui exercitum ducerent ad bellandum
15 And the princes of Issachar [were] with Deborah: even Issachar, and also Barak: he was sent on foot into the valley. For the divisions of Reuben [there were] great thoughts of heart.
duces Isachar fuere cum Debbora et Barac vestigia sunt secuti qui quasi in praeceps ac baratrum se discrimini dedit diviso contra se Ruben magnanimorum repperta contentio est
16 Why abodest thou among the sheep-folds, to hear the bleatings of the flocks? For the divisions of Reuben [there were] great searchings of heart.
quare habitas inter duos terminos ut audias sibilos gregum diviso contra se Ruben magnanimorum repperta contentio est
17 Gilead abode beyond Jordan: and why did Dan remain in ships? Asher continued on the sea-shore, and abode in his breaches.
Galaad trans Iordanem quiescebat et Dan vacabat navibus Aser habitabat in litore maris et in portibus morabatur
18 Zebulun and Naphtali [were] a people [that] jeoparded their lives to death in the high places of the field.
Zabulon vero et Nepthalim obtulerunt animas suas morti in regione Merome
19 The kings came [and] fought, then fought the kings of Canaan in Tanach by the waters of Megiddo; they took no gain of money.
venerunt reges et pugnaverunt pugnaverunt reges Chanaan in Thanach iuxta aquas Mageddo et tamen nihil tulere praedantes
20 They fought from heaven; the stars in their courses fought against Sisera.
de caelo dimicatum est contra eos stellae manentes in ordine et cursu suo adversum Sisaram pugnaverunt
21 The river of Kishon swept them away, that ancient river, the river Kishon. O my soul, thou hast trodden down strength.
torrens Cison traxit cadavera eorum torrens Cadumim torrens Cison conculca anima mea robustos
22 Then were the horse's hoofs broken by the means of the prancings, the prancings of their mighty ones.
ungulae equorum ceciderunt fugientibus impetu et per praeceps ruentibus fortissimis hostium
23 Curse ye Meroz, said the angel of the LORD, curse ye bitterly its inhabitants; because they came not to the help of the LORD, to the help of the LORD against the mighty.
maledicite terrae Meroz dixit angelus Domini maledicite habitatoribus eius quia non venerunt ad auxilium Domini in adiutorium fortissimorum eius
24 Blessed above women shall Jael the wife of Heber the Kenite be, blessed shall she be above women in the tent.
benedicta inter mulieres Iahel uxor Aber Cinei benedicatur in tabernaculo suo
25 He asked water, [and] she gave [him] milk; she brought forth butter in a lordly dish.
aquam petenti lac dedit et in fiala principum obtulit butyrum
26 She put her hand to the nail, and her right hand to the workmen's hammer; and with the hammer she smote Sisera, she smote off his head, when she had pierced and struck through his temples.
sinistram manum misit ad clavum et dexteram ad fabrorum malleos percussitque Sisaram quaerens in capite vulneri locum et tempus valide perforans
27 At her feet he bowed, he fell, he lay down: at her feet he bowed, he fell: where he bowed, there he fell down dead.
inter pedes eius ruit defecit et mortuus est ante pedes illius volvebatur et iacebat exanimis et miserabilis
28 The mother of Sisera looked out at a window, and cried through the lattice, Why is his chariot [so] long in coming? why tarry the wheels of his chariots?
per fenestram prospiciens ululabat mater eius et de cenaculo loquebatur cur moratur regredi currus eius quare tardaverunt pedes quadrigarum illius
29 Her wise ladies answered her, yes, she returned answer to herself.
una sapientior ceteris uxoribus eius haec socrui verba respondit
30 Have they not found; have they [not] divided the prey; to every man a damsel [or] two; to Sisera a prey of divers colors, a prey of divers colors of needle-work, of divers colors of needle-work on both sides, [meet] for the necks of [them that take] the spoil?
forsitan nunc dividit spolia et pulcherrima feminarum eligitur ei vestes diversorum colorum Sisarae traduntur in praedam et supellex varia ad ornanda colla congeritur
31 So let all thy enemies perish, O LORD: but [let] them that love him [be] as the sun when he goeth forth in his might. And the land had rest forty years.
sic pereant omnes inimici tui Domine qui autem diligunt te sicut sol in ortu suo splendet ita rutilent quievitque terra per quadraginta annos
