< Judges 5 >

1 And Deborah singeth — also Barak son of Abinoam — on that day, saying: —
Nígbà náà ni Debora àti Baraki ọmọ Abinoamu kọ orin ní ọjọ́ náà wí pé,
2 'For freeing freemen in Israel, For a people willingly offering themselves Bless ye Jehovah.
“Nítorí bí àwọn olórí ti síwájú ní Israẹli, nítorí bi àwọn ènìyàn ti fi tọkàntọkàn wa, ẹ fi ìbùkún fún Olúwa!
3 Hear, ye kings; give ear, ye princes, I, to Jehovah, I — I do sing, I sing praise to Jehovah, God of Israel.
“Ẹ gbọ́ ẹ̀yin ọba! Ẹ fetí yín sílẹ̀ ẹ̀yin ọmọ-aládé! Èmi yóò kọrin sí Olúwa, èmi yóò kọrin ìyìn sí Olúwa: Ọlọ́run Israẹli.
4 Jehovah, in Thy going forth out of Seir, In Thy stepping out of the field of Edom, Earth trembled, also the heavens dropped, Also thick clouds dropped water.
“Olúwa nígbà tí o jáde kúrò ní Seiri, nígbà tí ìwọ ń yan jáde wá láti pápá Edomu, ilẹ̀ mì tìtì, àwọn ọ̀run sì kán sílẹ̀, àní àwọsánmọ̀ pẹ̀lú kàn omi sílẹ̀.
5 Hills flowed from the face of Jehovah, This one — Sinai — From the face of Jehovah, God of Israel.
Àwọn òkè ńlá wárìrì ní iwájú Olúwa, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Sinai ní iwájú Olúwa Ọlọ́run Israẹli.
6 In the days of Shamgar son of Anath — In the days of Jael — The ways have ceased, And those going in the paths go [in] crooked ways.
“Ní ọjọ́ Ṣamgari ọmọ Anati, ní ọjọ́ Jaeli, àwọn ọ̀nà òpópó dá; àwọn arìnrìn-àjò sì ń gba ọ̀nà ìkọ̀kọ̀.
7 Villages ceased in Israel — they ceased, Till that I arose — Deborah, That I arose, a mother in Israel.
Àwọn olórí tán ní Israẹli, wọ́n tán, títí èmi Debora fi dìde bí ìyá ní Israẹli.
8 He chooseth new gods, Then war [is] at the gates! A shield is not seen — and a spear Among forty thousand in Israel.
Wọ́n ti yan ọlọ́run tuntun, nígbà náà ni ogun wà ní ibodè a ha rí asà tàbí ọ̀kọ̀ kan láàrín ọ̀kẹ́ méjì ní Israẹli bí.
9 My heart [is] to the lawgivers of Israel, Who are offering themselves willingly among the people, Bless ye Jehovah!
Àyà mi fà sí àwọn aláṣẹ Israẹli àwọn tí wọ́n yọ̀ǹda ara wọn tinútinú láàrín àwọn ènìyàn. Ẹ fi ìbùkún fún Olúwa!
10 Riders on white asses — Sitters on a long robe — And walkers by the way — meditate!
“Ẹ kéde rẹ̀: ẹ̀yin tí ń gun kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ funfun, ẹ̀yin tí ń jókòó lórí ẹní dáradára, àti ẹ̀yin tí ó ń rìn ní ọ̀nà. Ní ọ̀nà jíjìn sí
11 By the voice of shouters Between the places of drawing water, There they give out righteous acts of Jehovah, Righteous acts of His villages in Israel, Then ruled in the gates have the people of Jehovah.
ariwo àwọn tafàtafà, ní ibi tí a gbé ń fa omi. Níbẹ̀ ni wọ́n gbé ń sọ ti iṣẹ́ òdodo Olúwa, àní iṣẹ́ òdodo ìjọba rẹ̀ ní Israẹli. “Nígbà náà ni àwọn ènìyàn Olúwa sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ sí ibodè.
12 Awake, awake, Deborah; Awake, awake, utter a song; Rise, Barak, and take captive thy captivity, Son of Abinoam.
‘Jí, jí, Debora! Jí, jí, kọ orin dìde! Dìde ìwọ Baraki! Kó àwọn ìgbèkùn rẹ ní ìgbèkùn ìwọ ọmọ Abinoamu.’
13 Then him who is left of the honourable ones He caused to rule the people of Jehovah, He caused me to rule among the mighty.
“Nígbà náà ni àwọn tókù sọ̀kalẹ̀ àwọn ọlọ́lá lọ; àwọn ènìyàn Olúwa tọ̀ mí wá pẹ̀lú àwọn alágbára.
14 Out of Ephraim their root [is] against Amalek. After thee, Benjamin, among thy peoples. Out of Machir came down lawgivers, And out of Zebulun those drawing with the reed of a writer.
Àwọn kan jáde wá láti Efraimu, àwọn tí gbòǹgbò wọn wà ní Amaleki; Benjamini wà pẹ̀lú àwọn tí ó tẹ̀lé ọ. Láti Makiri ni àwọn aláṣẹ ti sọ̀kalẹ̀ wá, láti Sebuluni ni àwọn ẹni tí ń mú ọ̀pá oyè lọ́wọ́.
15 And princes in Issachar [are] with Deborah, Yea, Issachar [is] right with Barak, Into the valley he was sent on his feet. In the divisions of Reuben, Great [are] the decrees of heart!
Àwọn ọmọ-aládé Isakari wá pẹ̀lú Debora; bí Isakari ti ṣe olóòtítọ́ sí Baraki, wọ́n fi ẹsẹ̀ súré tẹ̀lé wọn lọ sí àfonífojì náà. Ní ipadò Reubeni ni ìgbèrò púpọ̀ wà.
16 Why hast thou abode between the boundaries, To hear lowings of herds? For the divisions of Reuben, Great [are] the searchings of heart!
Èéṣe tí ìwọ fi dúró pẹ́ láàrín agbo àgùntàn láti máa gbọ́ fèrè olùṣọ́-àgùntàn? Ní ipadò Reubeni ni ìgbèrò púpọ̀ wà.
17 Gilead beyond the Jordan did tabernacle, And Dan — why doth he sojourn [in] ships? Asher hath abode at the haven of the seas, And by his creeks doth tabernacle.
Gileadi dúró ní òkè odò Jordani. Èéṣe tí Dani fi dúró nínú ọkọ̀ ojú omi? Aṣeri jókòó ní etí bèbè Òkun, ó sì ń gbé èbúté rẹ̀.
18 Zebulun [is] a people who exposed its soul to death, Naphtali also — on high places of the field.
Àwọn ènìyàn Sebuluni fi ẹ̀mí wọn wéwu ikú; bẹ́ẹ̀ sì ni àwọn ènìyàn Naftali ní ibi gíga pápá.
19 Kings came — they fought; Then fought kings of Canaan, In Taanach, by the waters of Megiddo; Gain of money they took not!
“Àwọn ọba wá, wọ́n sì jà; àwọn ọba Kenaani jà ní Taanaki ní etí odo Megido, ṣùgbọ́n wọn kò sì gba èrè owó.
20 From the heavens they fought: The stars from their highways fought with Sisera.
Àwọn ìràwọ̀ já láti ojú ọ̀run wá láti inú ipa ọ̀nà wọn ni wọ́n bá Sisera jà.
21 The brook Kishon swept them away, The brook most ancient — the brook Kishon. Thou dost tread down strength, O my soul!
Odò Kiṣoni gbá wọn lọ, odò ìgbàanì, odò Kiṣoni. Máa yan lọ, ìwọ ọkàn mi, nínú agbára!
22 Then broken were the horse-heels, By pransings — pransings of its mighty ones.
Nígbà náà ni pátákò ẹsẹ̀ ẹṣin ki ilẹ̀, nítorí eré sísá, eré sísá àwọn alágbára wọn.
23 Curse Meroz — said a messenger of Jehovah, Cursing, curse ye its inhabitants, For they came not to the help of Jehovah, To the help of Jehovah among the mighty!
‘Ẹ fi Merosi bú,’ ni angẹli Olúwa wí. ‘Ẹ fi àwọn ènìyàn inú rẹ̀ bú ìbú kíkorò, nítorí wọn kò wá sí ìrànlọ́wọ́ Olúwa, láti dojúkọ àwọn alágbára.’
24 Blessed above women is Jael, Wife of Heber the Kenite, Above women in the tent she is blessed.
“Ìbùkún ni fún Jaeli, aya Heberi ará Keni ju àwọn obìnrin lọ, ìbùkún ni fún un ju àwọn obìnrin tí ń gbé nínú àgọ́.
25 Water he asked — milk she gave; In a lordly dish she brought near butter.
Ó béèrè omi, ó fún un ní wàrà; ó mú òrí-àmọ́ tọ̀ ọ́ wá nínú àwo iyebíye tí ó yẹ fún àwọn ọlọ́lá.
26 Her hand to the pin she sendeth forth, And her right hand to the labourers' hammer, And she hammered Sisera — she smote his head, Yea, she smote, and it passed through his temple.
Ó na ọwọ́ rẹ̀ mú ìṣó àgọ́, ó fi ọwọ́ ọ̀tún rẹ̀ mú òòlù awọ gbẹ́nàgbẹ́nà, òòlù náà ni ó sì fi lu Sisera, ó gbá a mọ́ ọn ní orí, ó sì gun, ó sì kàn ẹ̀bátí rẹ̀ mọ́lẹ̀ ṣinṣin.
27 Between her feet he bowed — He fell, he lay down; Between her feet he bowed, he fell; Where he bowed, there he fell — destroyed.
Ní ẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀ ó wólẹ̀, ó ṣubú; ó dùbúlẹ̀. Ó wólẹ̀ ní ẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀, ó ṣubú níbi tí ó gbé ń wólẹ̀; níbẹ̀ náà ni ó ṣubú kú sí.
28 Through the window she hath looked out — Yea, she crieth out — the mother of Sisera, Through the lattice: Wherefore is his chariot delaying to come? Wherefore tarried have the steps of his chariot?
“Ìyá Sisera yọjú láti ojú fèrèsé, ó sì kígbe, ó kígbe ní ojú fèrèsé ọlọ́nà pé, ‘Èéṣe tí kẹ̀kẹ́-ẹṣin rẹ fi pẹ́ bẹ́ẹ̀ láti dé? Èéṣe tí ẹsẹ̀ kẹ̀kẹ́-ẹṣin rẹ̀ fi dúró lẹ́yìn?’
29 The wise ones, her princesses, answer her, Yea, she returneth her sayings to herself:
Àwọn amòye obìnrin rẹ̀ dá a lóhùn; àní òun náà pẹ̀lú ti dá ara rẹ̀ lóhùn pé,
30 Do they not find? — they apportion spoil, A female — two females — for every head, Spoil of finger-work for Sisera, Spoil of embroidered finger-work, Finger-work — a pair of embroidered things, For the necks of the spoil!
‘Wọn kò ha ń wa kiri, wọn kò ha ti pín ìkógun bi: ọmọbìnrin kan tàbí méjì fún ọkùnrin kan, fún Sisera ìkógun aṣọ aláràbarà, ìkógun aṣọ aláràbarà àti ọlọ́nà, àwọn aṣọ ọlọ́nà iyebíye fún ọrùn mi, gbogbo èyí tí a kó ní ogun?’
31 So do all Thine enemies perish, O Jehovah, And those loving Him [are] As the going out of the sun in its might!' and the land resteth forty years.
“Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kí ó jẹ́ kí gbogbo àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ kí ó ṣègbé Olúwa! Ṣùgbọ́n jẹ́ kí àwọn tí ó fẹ́ ọ ràn bí oòrùn, nígbà tí ó bá yọ nínú agbára rẹ̀.” Ilẹ̀ náà sì sinmi ní ogójì ọdún.
