Judges 4
1 And the sons of Israel add to do the evil thing in the eyes of Jehovah when Ehud is dead,
Thuutha wa Ehudu gũkua-rĩ, andũ a Isiraeli o rĩngĩ magĩĩka maũndũ mooru maitho-inĩ ma Jehova.
2 and Jehovah selleth them into the hand of Jabin king of Canaan, who hath reigned in Hazor, and the head of his host [is] Sisera, and he is dwelling in Harosheth of the Goyim;
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Jehova akĩmarekereria moko-inĩ ma Jabini, mũthamaki wa bũrũri wa Kaanani ũrĩa waathanaga kũu Hazoru. Nake mũnene wa mbũtũ ciake cia mbaara eetagwo Sisera, ũrĩa watũũraga kũu Haroshethu-Hagoyimu.
3 and the sons of Israel cry unto Jehovah, for he hath nine hundred chariots of iron, and he hath oppressed the sons of Israel mightily twenty years.
Jabini aarĩ na ngaari cia ita cia igera magana kenda, na nĩahinyĩrĩirie andũ a Isiraeli atarĩ na tha ihinda rĩa mĩaka mĩrongo ĩĩrĩ, nao andũ a Isiraeli magĩkaĩra Jehova amateithie.
4 And Deborah, a woman inspired, wife of Lapidoth, she is judging Israel at that time,
Na rĩrĩ, Debora, mũnabii mũndũ-wa-nja, mũtumia wa Lapidothu, nĩwe watongoragia Isiraeli hĩndĩ ĩyo.
5 and she is dwelling under the palm-tree of Deborah, between Ramah and Beth-El, in the hill-country of Ephraim, and the sons of Israel go up unto her for judgment.
Nake aarĩ na handũ ha gũciirĩra rungu rwa Mũkĩndũ wa Debora, gatagatĩ ka Rama na Betheli kũu bũrũri ũrĩa ũrĩ irĩma wa Efiraimu, nao andũ a Isiraeli maathiiaga harĩ we nĩgeetha amatuithanie maciira.
6 And she sendeth and calleth for Barak son of Abinoam, out of Kedesh-Naphtali, and saith unto him, 'Hath not Jehovah, God of Israel, commanded? go, and thou hast drawn towards mount Tabor, and hast taken with thee ten thousand men, out of the sons of Naphtali, and out of the sons of Zebulun,
Debora agĩtũmanĩra Baraka mũrũ wa Abinoamu kuuma Kedeshi ya Nafitali, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Jehova Ngai wa Isiraeli nĩaragwatha agakwĩra atĩrĩ, ‘Thiĩ, woe andũ 10,000 a kuuma Nafitali na Zebuluni, na ũmatongorie nginya Kĩrĩma-inĩ kĩa Taboru.
7 and I have drawn unto thee, unto the brook Kishon, Sisera, head of the host of Jabin, and his chariot, and his multitude, and have given him into thy hand.'
Niĩ nĩngũguucĩrĩria Sisera, mũnene wa mbũtũ cia ita cia Jabini, hamwe na ngaari ciake cia ita na thigari ciake nginya rũũĩ-inĩ rwa Kishoni, ndĩmũneane moko-inĩ maku.’”
8 And Barak saith unto her, 'If thou dost go with me, then I have gone; and if thou dost not go with me, I do not go;'
Nake Baraka akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Nĩngũthiĩ aakorwo nĩũgũtwarana hamwe na niĩ; no aakorwo ndũgũtwarana hamwe na niĩ-rĩ, o na niĩ ndigũthiĩ.”
9 and she saith, 'I do certainly go with thee; only, surely thy glory is not on the way which thou art going, for into the hand of a woman doth Jehovah sell Sisera;' and Deborah riseth and goeth with Barak to Kedesh.
Nake Debora akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Nĩ wega, nĩngũtwarana nawe. No rĩrĩ, nĩ ũndũ wa ũrĩa ũroya ũhoro ũyũ-rĩ, gĩtĩĩo gĩtigatuĩka gĩaku, nĩgũkorwo Jehova nĩekũneana Sisera moko-inĩ ma mũndũ-wa-nja.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Debora agĩtwarana na Baraka nginya Kadeshi,
10 And Barak calleth Zebulun and Naphtali to Kedesh, and he goeth up — at his feet [are] ten thousand men — and Deborah goeth up with him.
na kũu Baraka agĩĩta andũ a Zebuluni na a Nafitali. Andũ 10,000 makĩmũrũmĩrĩra, o na Debora agĩthiĩ hamwe nake.
11 And Heber the Kenite hath been separated from the Kenite, from the sons of Hobab father-in-law of Moses, and he stretcheth out his tent unto the oak in Zaanaim, which [is] by Kedesh.
Na rĩrĩ, Heberi ũrĩa Mũkeni nĩeyamũrĩte agatigana na Akeni arĩa angĩ a rũciaro rwa Hobabu, mũthoni-we wa Musa, na akaamba hema yake mũtĩ-inĩ ũrĩa mũnene kũu Zaananimu gũkuhĩ na Kadeshi.
12 And they declare to Sisera that Barak son of Abinoam hath gone up to mount Tabor,
Nao andũ makĩhe Sisera ũhoro, atĩ Baraka mũrũ wa Abinoamu nĩambatĩte agakinya Kĩrĩma gĩa Taboru.
13 and Sisera calleth all his chariots, nine hundred chariots of iron, and all the people who [are] with him, from Harosheth of the Goyim, unto the brook Kishon.
Sisera agĩcookanĩrĩria ngaari ciake cia ita cia igera magana kenda, hamwe na andũ othe arĩa maarĩ hamwe nake, kuuma Haroshethu-Hagoyimu nginya Rũũĩ rwa Kishoni.
14 And Deborah saith unto Barak, 'Rise, for this [is] the day in which Jehovah hath given Sisera into thy hand; hath not Jehovah gone out before thee?' And Barak goeth down from mount Tabor, and ten thousand men after him.
Nake Debora akĩĩra Baraka atĩrĩ, “Thiĩ! Ũyũ nĩguo mũthenya ũrĩa Jehova aneanĩte Sisera moko-inĩ maku. Githĩ Jehova tiwe ũthiĩte arĩ mbere yaku?” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Baraka agĩikũrũka oimĩte Kĩrĩma-inĩ gĩa Taboru, arũmĩrĩirwo nĩ andũ 10,000.
15 And Jehovah destroyeth Sisera, and all the chariots, and all the camp, by the mouth of the sword, before Barak, and Sisera cometh down from off the chariot, and fleeth on his feet.
Rĩrĩa Baraka aamakuhĩrĩirie, Jehova akĩingatithia Sisera hamwe na ngaari ciake cia ita ciothe, na mbũtũ yake yothe, akĩmahũũra na rũhiũ rwa njora, nake Sisera agĩtiganĩria ngaari yake ya ita, akĩũra na magũrũ.
16 And Barak hath pursued after the chariots and after the camp, unto Harosheth of the Goyim, and all the camp of Sisera falleth by the mouth of the sword — there hath not been left even one.
No Baraka akĩingatithia ngaari icio cia ita o hamwe na mbũtũ cia ita nginya Haroshethu-Hagoyimu. Nacio thigari ciothe cia Sisera ikĩũragwo na rũhiũ rwa njora; na gũtirĩ mũndũ o na ũmwe watigarire.
17 And Sisera hath fled on his feet unto the tent of Jael wife of Heber the Kenite, for peace [is] between Jabin king of Hazor and the house of Heber the Kenite;
No rĩrĩ, Sisera agĩĩthara na magũrũ, akĩũrĩra hema-inĩ ya Jaeli, mũtumia wa Heberi ũrĩa Mũkeni, nĩ ũndũ kwarĩ na ũrata gatagatĩ-inĩ ka Jabini mũthamaki wa Hazoru na mbarĩ ya Heberi ũcio Mũkeni.
18 and Jael goeth out to meet Sisera, and saith unto him, 'Turn aside, my lord, turn aside unto me, fear not;' and he turneth aside unto her, into the tent, and she covereth him with a coverlet.
Jaeli akiumagara agatũnge Sisera, akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ũka, mwathi wakwa, toonya thĩinĩ. Ndũgetigĩre.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio agĩtoonya hema thĩinĩ nake Jaeli akĩmũhumbĩra.
19 And he saith unto her, 'Give me to drink, I pray thee, a little water, for I am thirsty;' and she openeth the bottle of milk, and giveth him to drink, and covereth him.
Sisera akiuga atĩrĩ, “Ndĩ mũnyootu, ndagũthaitha he maaĩ nyue.” Jaeli agĩkunũra mbũthũ ya iria, akĩmũhe anyue, agĩcooka akĩmũhumbĩra.
20 And he saith unto her, 'Stand at the opening of the tent, and it hath been, if any doth come in, and hath asked thee, and said, Is there a man here? that thou hast said, There is not.'
Sisera akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Rũgama mũrango-inĩ wa hema, na hangĩũka mũndũ akũũrie atĩrĩ, ‘Kũrĩ mũndũ ũrĩ gũkũ?’ uuge atĩrĩ, ‘Aca.’”
21 And Jael wife of Heber taketh the pin of the tent, and taketh the hammer in her hand, and goeth unto him gently, and striketh the pin into his temples, and it fasteneth in the earth — and he hath been fast asleep, and is weary — and he dieth.
No Jaeli ũcio mũtumia wa Heberi akĩoya higĩ ya hema na nyondo, agĩthiĩ acemete harĩa Sisera aakomete anogete mũno. Akĩhũũrĩrĩra higĩ ĩyo thikĩrĩrio-inĩ, ĩgĩtũrĩkania nginya igĩtoonyerera thĩ, nake agĩkua.
22 And lo, Barak is pursuing Sisera, and Jael cometh out to meet him, and saith to him, 'Come, and I shew thee the man whom thou art seeking;' and he cometh in unto her, and lo, Sisera is fallen — dead, and the pin in his temples.
Baraka agĩũka aingatithĩtie Sisera, nake Jaeli agĩthiĩ kũmũtũnga. Akĩmwĩra atĩrĩ, “Ũka, nĩngũkuonia mũndũ ũrĩa ũracaria.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Baraka agĩtoonya hamwe na Jaeli, na agĩkora Sisera akomete thĩ arĩ mũkuũ nayo higĩ ĩmũtũrĩkanĩtie thikĩrĩrio.
23 And God humbleth on that day Jabin king of Canaan before the sons of Israel,
Mũthenya ũcio-rĩ, nĩguo Ngai aatooririe Jabini, mũthamaki wa andũ a Kaanani, mbere ya andũ a Isiraeli.
24 and the hand of the sons of Israel goeth, going on and becoming hard on Jabin king of Canaan, till that they have cut off Jabin king of Canaan.
Nakuo guoko kwa andũ a Isiraeli gũgĩkĩrĩrĩria kũgĩa na hinya igũrũ rĩa Jabini, mũthamaki wa andũ a Kaanani, nginya makĩmũniina biũ.
