< Judges 4 >

1 The children of Israel again did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, when Ehud was dead.
Ko je bil Ehúd mrtev, so Izraelovi otroci ponovno počeli zlo v Gospodovih očeh.
2 The LORD 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 of the Gentiles.
Gospod jih je prodal v roko kánaanskega kralja Jabína, ki je kraljeval v Hacórju, katerega poveljnik vojske je bil Siserá, ki je prebival v Haróšetu poganov.
3 The children of Israel cried to the LORD, for he had nine hundred chariots of iron; and he mightily oppressed the children of Israel for twenty years.
Izraelovi otroci so vpili h Gospodu, kajti imel je devetsto bojnih vozov iz železa in dvajset let je mogočno zatiral Izraelove otroke.
4 Now Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lappidoth, judged Israel at that time.
Ob tistem času je Izraelu sodila prerokinja Debóra, Lapidótova žena.
5 She lived under Deborah’s palm tree between Ramah and Bethel in the hill country of Ephraim; and the children of Israel came up to her for judgement.
Prebivala je pod Debórinim palmovim drevesom med Ramo in Betelom, na gori Efrájim in Izraelovi otroci so prihajali gor k njej za sodbo.
6 She sent and called Barak the son of Abinoam out of Kedesh Naphtali, and said to him, “Hasn’t the LORD, the God of Israel, commanded, ‘Go and lead the way to Mount Tabor, and take with you ten thousand men of the children of Naphtali and of the children of Zebulun?
Poslala je in poklicala Abinóamovega sina Baráka iz Kedeš-Neftálija in mu rekla: »Ali ni Gospod, Izraelov Bog, zapovedal, rekoč: ›Pojdi in odpravi se proti gori Tabor in s seboj vzemi deset tisoč mož izmed Neftálijevih otrok in Zábulonovih otrok?‹
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.’”
K tebi, k reki Kišón, bom pritegnila Siserája, poveljnika Jabínove vojske, z njegovimi bojnimi vozovi in njegovo množico in izročila ga bom v tvojo roko.«
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.”
Barák ji je rekel: »Če boš šla z menoj, potem bom šel, če pa ne boš šla z menoj, potem ne bom šel.«
9 She said, “I will surely go with you. Nevertheless, the journey that you take won’t be for your honour; for the LORD will sell Sisera into a woman’s hand.” Deborah arose, and went with Barak to Kedesh.
Rekla je: »Zagotovo bom šla s teboj, vendar potovanje, na katero greš, ne bo v tvojo čast, kajti Gospod bo Siserája prodal v roko ženske.« Debóra je vstala in z Barákom odšla v Kedeš.
10 Barak called Zebulun and Naphtali together to Kedesh. Ten thousand men followed him; and Deborah went up with him.
Barák je v Kedeš poklical Zábulona in Neftálija in ta je odšel gor z deset tisoč možmi ob svojih stopalih in Debóra je z njim odšla gor.
11 Now Heber the Kenite had separated himself from the Kenites, even from the children of Hobab, Moses’ brother-in-law, and had pitched his tent as far as the oak in Zaanannim, which is by Kedesh.
Torej Kenéjec Heber, ki je bil izmed otrok Mojzesovega tasta Hobába, se je oddvojil od Kenéjcev in si svoj šotor postavil na ravnini Caananím, ki je pri Kedešu.
12 They told Sisera that Barak the son of Abinoam had gone up to Mount Tabor.
Siseráju so naznanili, da je Abinóamov sin Barák odšel gor h gori Tabor.
13 Sisera gathered together all his chariots, even nine hundred chariots of iron, and all the people who were with him, from Harosheth of the Gentiles, to the river Kishon.
Siserá je zbral skupaj vse svoje bojne vozove, devetsto železnih bojnih vozov in vse ljudstvo, ki je bilo z njim, od Haróšeta poganov do reke Kišón.
14 Deborah said to Barak, “Go; for this is the day in which the LORD has delivered Sisera into your hand. Hasn’t the LORD gone out before you?” So Barak went down from Mount Tabor, and ten thousand men after him.
Debóra je rekla Baráku: »Vstani, kajti to je dan, na katerega je Gospod izročil Siserája v tvojo roko. Ali ni Gospod šel ven pred teboj?« Tako je Barák odšel dol z gore Tabor in deset tisoč mož za njim.
15 The LORD confused Sisera, all his chariots, and all his army, with the edge of the sword before Barak. Sisera abandoned his chariot and fled away on his feet.
Gospod je pred Barákom z ostrino meča porazil Siserája, vse njegove bojne vozove in vso njegovo vojsko, tako da se je Siserá spustil iz svojega bojnega voza in pobegnil na svojih stopalih.
16 But Barak pursued the chariots and the army to Harosheth of the Gentiles; and all the army of Sisera fell by the edge of the sword. There was not a man left.
Toda Barák je zasledoval bojne vozove in vojsko do Haróšeta poganov in vsa Siserájeva vojska je padla na ostrino meča in niti mož ni preostal.
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.
Vendar je Siserá na svojih stopalih pobegnil proč k šotoru Jaéle, žene Kenéjca Heberja, kajti mir je bil med Jabínom, kraljem Hacórja in hišo Kenéjca Heberja.
18 Jael went out to meet Sisera, and said to him, “Turn in, my lord, turn in to me; don’t be afraid.” He came in to her into the tent, and she covered him with a rug.
Jaéla je odšla ven, da sreča Siserája ter mu rekla: »Zavij noter, moj gospod, zavij noter k meni. Ne boj se.« Ko je zavil noter, k njej v šotor, ga je pokrila z ogrinjalom.
19 He said to her, “Please give me a little water to drink; for I am thirsty.” She opened a container of milk, and gave him a drink, and covered him.
Rekel ji je: »Daj mi, prosim te, piti malo vode, kajti žejen sem.« Odprla je meh mleka, mu dala piti in ga pokrila.
20 He said to her, “Stand in the door of the tent, and if any man comes and enquires of you, and says, ‘Is there any man here?’ you shall say, ‘No.’”
Ponovno ji je rekel: »Stoj v vratih šotora in zgodilo se bo, ko pride katerikoli mož in od tebe poizveduje in reče: ›Ali je tam kakšen mož, ‹ da boš rekla: ›Ne.‹
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 fainted and died.
Potem je Heberjeva žena Jaéla vzela šotorski klin in v svojo roko vzela kladivo in po tiho odšla k njemu in klin zabila v njegova sènca in ga pritrdila k tlom, kajti trdno je zaspal in bil je izmučen. Tako je umrl.
22 Behold, 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 behold, Sisera lay dead, and the tent peg was in his temples.
Glej, ko je Barák zasledoval Siserája, je Jaéla prišla ven, da ga sreča ter mu rekla: »Pridi in pokazala ti bom moža, ki ga iščeš.« Ko je vstopil v njen šotor, glej, Siserá je ležal mrtev in klin je bil v njegovih sèncih.
23 So God subdued Jabin the king of Canaan before the children of Israel on that day.
Tako je Bog na ta dan pred Izraelovimi otroki podjarmil kánaanskega kralja Jabína.
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.
Roka Izraelovih otrok je uspevala in prevladala zoper kánaanskega kralja Jabína, dokler niso uničili kánaanskega kralja Jabína.
