Jij 4
1 Lè Eyoud mouri, moun pèp Izrayèl yo rekonmanse ankò ap fè bagay ki te mal nan je Seyè a.
The children of Israel again did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, when Ehud was dead.
2 Lè sa a, Seyè a te kite Jaben, wa peyi Kanaran an, mete pye sou kou yo. Jaben sa a t'ap gouvènen nan lavil Azò. Chèf ki t'ap kòmande lame Jaben an te rele Sisera. Li menm, li te rete lavil Awochèt-Goyim.
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.
3 Li te gen nèfsan (900) cha lagè fèt an fè. Pandan ventan li t'ap maltrete moun pèp Izrayèl yo, li t'ap malmennen yo. Lè sa a, pèp Izrayèl la pran rele nan pye Seyè a.
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.
4 Debora, madanm yon nonm yo te rele Lapidòt, te pwofèt Bondye. Nan tan sa a, se li ki te konn rann jijman sou tout bagay nan peyi Izrayèl la.
Now Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lappidoth, judged Israel at that time.
5 Nan mòn peyi Efrayim yo, ant lavil Rama ak lavil Betèl, te gen yon pye palmis yo te rele Palmis Debora. Se la anba pye palmis sa a li te konn chita, lèfini moun nan pèp la te konn vin kote l' pou l' te regle tout bagay pou yo.
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.
6 Li voye chache Barak, pitit gason Abinoram, moun lavil Kadès nan peyi moun Neftali yo. Li di l' konsa: -Men lòd Seyè a, Bondye pèp Izrayèl la, voye ba ou: Ale! Mennen sòlda ou yo sou mòn Tabò. Nan branch fanmi Neftali a ak nan branch fanmi Zabilon an, pran dimil (10.000) gason avè ou.
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?
7 M'a pral fè Sisera, kòmandan an chèf lame wa Jaben an, vin goumen avè ou bò larivyè Kichon an. L'ap vini avèk cha lagè l' yo ansanm ak tout sòlda li yo. Men, m'ap lagè l' nan men ou.
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.’”
8 Barak di Debora: -Si ou prale avè m', m'a prale. Men si ou pa prale avè m', mwen pa prale.
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.”
9 Debora reponn: -Bon. Dakò! M' prale avè ou. Men, yo p'ap janm di se ou ki te bat Sisera, paske se yon fanm Seyè a ap fè touye l'. Epi Debora leve, l' ale lavil Kadès ansanm ak Barak.
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.
10 Barak rele moun nan branch fanmi Zabilon yo ak moun nan branch fanmi Neftali yo vin Kadès. Se konsa dimil (10.000) gason ale avè l'. Debora ale avè l' tou.
Barak called Zebulun and Naphtali together to Kedesh. Ten thousand men followed him; and Deborah went up with him.
11 Lè sa a te gen yon nonm nan fanmi Kayen an yo te rele Ebè ki te moute kay li toupre lavil Kadès, bò pye chenn nan fon Zaranayim lan. Li te wete kò l' nan mitan lòt moun fanmi Kayen yo, desandan Obab, bòpè Moyiz la.
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.
12 Y' al di Sisera men Barak, pitit gason Abinoram lan, te pran chemen moute mòn Tabò.
They told Sisera that Barak the son of Abinoam had gone up to Mount Tabor.
13 Sisera fè chache nèfsan (900) cha lagè an fè l' yo ak tout sòlda li yo, li fè yo kite Awochèt-Goyim desann ravin Kichon.
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.
14 Debora di Barak konsa: -Annou wè! Jòdi a, se jou Seyè a pral lage Sisera nan men ou. Se Seyè a k'ap mache devan ou. Se konsa, Barak desann soti sou mòn Tabò a avèk dimil (10.000) sòlda dèyè l'.
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.
15 Lè Barak parèt avèk lame l' la, Seyè a lage yon sèl kè kase sou Sisera ak tout moun sou cha lagè l' yo ansanm ak tout lame l' la. Sisera desann sot sou cha li a, li met deyò, li di pye sa m' manje m' pa ba ou!
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.
16 Barak menm pran kouri dèyè cha yo ak lame a jouk Awochèt-Goyim. Yo touye tout sòlda Sisera yo nèt. Yo pa kite yonn chape.
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.
17 Sisera kouri sou de pye l' bò tant Jayèl, madanm Ebè, moun branch fanmi Kayen yo, paske Jaben, wa Azò a, ak moun fanmi Ebè yo te byen yonn ak lòt.
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.
18 Jayèl soti al kontre Sisera, epi li di l' konsa: -Vini non, chèf mwen! Vin kache lakay mwen non! Ou pa bezwen pè anyen. Se konsa Sisera antre lakay Jayèl ki kache msye anba yon gwo dra.
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.
19 Sisera di l' konsa: -Tanpri, ban m' ti gout dlo. Swaf ap touye m'! Jayèl louvri yon veso lèt fèt an po, li ba l' ti gout lèt bwè, epi li kache l' anba gwo dra a ankò.
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.
20 Sisera di l' ankò: -Rete kanpe devan papòt tant lan. Nenpòt moun ki ta vin mande ou si gen yon moun nan kay la w'a reponn li: Non. Pa gen pesonn.
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.’”
21 Sisera te sitèlman bouke, dòmi pote l' ale. Lè sa a, Jayèl, madanm Ebè, pran yonn nan pikèt tant yo ak yon mato, li pwoche tou dousman bò kote Sisera, epi li foure pikèt la nan tanp msye, li fè l' travèse tèt Sisera pak an pak, jouk li antre nan tè. Epi Sisera mouri.
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.
22 Lè Barak rive bò kay la ap chache Sisera, Jayèl soti vin kontre l', epi li di l': -Vini non! M'a fè ou wè moun w'ap chache a! Se konsa Barak antre avè l' anba tant li a, li wè Sisera kouche atè a tou mouri avèk pikèt la plante nan tanp li.
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.
23 Jou sa a, Bondye te fè Jaben, wa peyi Kanaran an, bese tèt devan pèp Izrayèl la.
So God subdued Jabin the king of Canaan before the children of Israel on that day.
24 Moun pèp Izrayèl yo pran maltrete Jaben, wa peyi Kanaran an, jouk yo touye l'.
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.
