Hakim-hakim 4
1 Setelah Ehud mati, orang Israel melakukan pula apa yang jahat di mata TUHAN.
And the sons of Israel again did that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah, when Ehud was dead.
2 Lalu TUHAN menyerahkan mereka ke dalam tangan Yabin, raja Kanaan, yang memerintah di Hazor. Panglima tentaranya ialah Sisera yang diam di Haroset-Hagoyim.
And Jehovah sold them into the hand of Jabin king of Canaan who reigned in Hazor, the captain of whose army was Sisera who dwelt in Harosheth of the Gentiles.
3 Lalu orang Israel berseru kepada TUHAN, sebab Sisera mempunyai sembilan ratus kereta besi dan dua puluh tahun lamanya ia menindas orang Israel dengan keras.
And the sons of Israel cried to Jehovah, for he had nine hundred chariots of iron, and he mightily oppressed the sons of Israel twenty years.
4 Pada waktu itu Debora, seorang nabiah, isteri Lapidot, memerintah sebagai hakim atas orang Israel.
Now Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lappidoth, she judged Israel at that time.
5 Ia biasa duduk di bawah pohon korma Debora antara Rama dan Betel di pegunungan Efraim, dan orang Israel menghadap dia untuk berhakim kepadanya.
And she dwelt under the palm tree of Deborah between Ramah and Bethel in the hill-country of Ephraim, and the sons of Israel came up to her for judgment.
6 Ia menyuruh memanggil Barak bin Abinoam dari Kedesh di daerah Naftali, lalu berkata kepadanya: "Bukankah TUHAN, Allah Israel, memerintahkan demikian: Majulah, bergeraklah menuju gunung Tabor dengan membawa sepuluh ribu orang bani Naftali dan bani Zebulon bersama-sama dengan engkau,
And she sent and called Barak the son of Abinoam out of Kedesh-naphtali, and said to him, Has not Jehovah, the God of Israel, commanded, saying, Go and approach to mount Tabor, and take with thee ten thousand men of the sons of Naphtali and of the sons of Zebulun?
7 dan Aku akan menggerakkan Sisera, panglima tentara Yabin, dengan kereta-keretanya dan pasukan-pasukannya menuju engkau ke sungai Kison dan Aku akan menyerahkan dia ke dalam tanganmu."
And I will draw Sisera, the captain of Jabin's army, to thee, to the river Kishon, with his chariots and his multitude, and I will deliver him into thy hand.
8 Jawab Barak kepada Debora: "Jika engkau turut maju akupun maju, tetapi jika engkau tidak turut maju akupun tidak maju."
And Barak said to her, If thou will go with me, then I will go, but if thou will not go with me, I will not go.
9 Kata Debora: "Baik, aku turut! Hanya, engkau tidak akan mendapat kehormatan dalam perjalanan yang engkau lakukan ini, sebab TUHAN akan menyerahkan Sisera ke dalam tangan seorang perempuan." Lalu Debora bangun berdiri dan pergi bersama-sama dengan Barak ke Kedesh.
And she said, I will surely go with thee. Notwithstanding, the journey that thou take shall not be for thine honor, for Jehovah will sell Sisera into the hand of a woman. And Deborah arose, and went with Barak to Kedesh.
10 Barak mengerahkan suku Zebulon dan suku Naftali ke Kedesh, maka sepuluh ribu orang maju mengikuti dia; juga Debora maju bersama-sama dengan dia.
And Barak called Zebulun and Naphtali together to Kedesh. And there went up ten thousand men at his feet, and Deborah went up with him.
11 Adapun Heber, orang Keni itu, telah memisahkan diri dari suku Keni, dari anak-anak Hobab ipar Musa, dan telah berpindah-pindah memasang kemahnya sampai ke pohon tarbantin di Zaanaim yang dekat Kedesh.
Now Heber the Kenite had separated himself from the Kenites, even from the sons of Hobab the brother-in-law of Moses, and had pitched his tent as far as the oak in Zaanannim, which is by Kedesh.
12 Setelah dikabarkan kepada Sisera, bahwa Barak bin Abinoam telah maju ke gunung Tabor,
And they told Sisera that Barak the son of Abinoam was gone up to mount Tabor.
13 dikerahkannyalah segala keretanya, sembilan ratus kereta besi, dan seluruh rakyat yang bersama-sama dengan dia, dari Haroset-Hagoyim ke sungai Kison.
And Sisera gathered together all his chariots, even nine hundred chariots of iron, and all the people that were with him, from Harosheth of the Gentiles, to the river Kishon.
14 Lalu berkatalah Debora kepada Barak: "Bersiaplah, sebab inilah harinya TUHAN menyerahkan Sisera ke dalam tanganmu. Bukankah TUHAN telah maju di depan engkau?" Lalu turunlah Barak dari gunung Tabor dan sepuluh ribu orang mengikuti dia,
And Deborah said to Barak, Up, for this is the day in which Jehovah has delivered Sisera into thy hand. Has not Jehovah gone out before thee? So Barak went down from mount Tabor, and ten thousand men after him.
15 dan TUHAN mengacaukan Sisera serta segala keretanya dan seluruh tentaranya oleh mata pedang di depan Barak, sehingga Sisera turun dari keretanya dan melarikan diri dengan berjalan kaki.
And Jehovah discomfited Sisera, and all his chariots, and all his army, with the edge of the sword before Barak. And Sisera alighted from his chariot, and fled away on his feet.
16 Lalu Barak mengejar kereta-kereta dan tentara itu sampai ke Haroset-Hagoyim, dan seluruh tentara Sisera tewas oleh mata pedang; tidak ada seorangpun yang tinggal hidup.
But Barak pursued after the chariots, and after 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 Tetapi Sisera dengan berjalan kaki melarikan diri ke kemah Yael, isteri Heber, orang Keni itu, sebab ada perhubungan baik antara Yabin, raja Hazor, dengan keluarga Heber, orang Keni itu.
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 Yael itupun keluar mendapatkan Sisera, dan berkata kepadanya: "Singgahlah, tuanku, silakan masuk. Jangan takut." Lalu singgahlah ia ke dalam kemah perempuan itu dan perempuan itu menutupi dia dengan selimut.
And Jael went out to meet Sisera, and said to him, Turn in, my lord, turn in to me; fear not. And he turned in to her into the tent, and she covered him with a rug.
19 Kemudian berkatalah ia kepada perempuan itu: "Berilah kiranya aku minum air sedikit, aku haus." Lalu perempuan itu membuka kirbat susu, diberinyalah dia minum dan diselimutinya pula.
And he said to her, Give me, I pray thee, a little water to drink, for I am thirsty. And she opened a bottle of milk, and gave him drink, and covered him.
20 Lagi katanya kepada perempuan itu: "Berdirilah di depan pintu kemah dan apabila ada orang datang dan bertanya kepadamu: Ada orang di sini?, maka jawablah: Tidak ada."
And he said to her, Stand in the door of the tent, and it shall be, when any man comes and inquires of thee, and says, Is there any man here? that thou shall say, No.
21 Tetapi Yael, isteri Heber, mengambil patok kemah, diambilnya pula palu, mendekatinya diam-diam, lalu dilantaknyalah patok itu masuk ke dalam pelipisnya sampai tembus ke tanah--sebab ia telah tidur nyenyak karena lelahnya--maka matilah orang itu.
Then Jael Heber's wife took a tent-pin, 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 Pada waktu itu muncullah Barak yang mengejar Sisera. Keluarlah Yael mendapatkan dia dan berkata kepadanya: "Mari, aku akan menunjukkan kepadamu orang yang kaucari itu." Lalu masuklah Barak ke dalam dan tampaklah Sisera mati tergeletak dengan patok dalam pelipisnya.
And, behold, as Barak pursued Sisera, Jael came out to meet him, and said to him, Come, and I will show thee the man whom thou seek. And he came to her, and, behold, Sisera lay dead, and the tent-pin was in his temples.
23 Demikianlah Allah pada hari itu menundukkan Yabin, raja Kanaan, di depan orang Israel.
So God subdued on that day Jabin the king of Canaan before the sons of Israel.
24 Dan kekuasaan orang Israel kian keras menekan Yabin, raja Kanaan, sampai mereka melenyapkan Yabin, raja Kanaan itu.
And the hand of the sons of Israel prevailed more and more against Jabin the king of Canaan until they had destroyed Jabin king of Canaan.
