Domin Yabin sarkin Kan’ana yana da kekunan yaƙin ƙarfe ɗari tara, ya ji wa Isra’ilawa ƙwarai har shekara ashirin, sai suka yi kuka ga Ubangiji, don taimako.
4 UDebora umfazi owayengumprofethikazi umkaLapidothi yena wahlulela uIsrayeli ngalesosikhathi.
A lokacin Debora annabiya, matar Laffidot ce take bi da Isra’ila.
5 Wayehlala ngaphansi kwesihlahla selala sikaDebora phakathi kweRama leBhetheli entabeni yakoEfrayimi. Abantwana bakoIsrayeli basebesenyukela kuye ukwahlulelwa.
Takan yi zaman shari’a a ƙarƙashin Dabinon Debora tsakanin Rama da Betel, a ƙasar tudu ta Efraim, Isra’ilawa kuwa sukan zo wurinta don tă yi musu shari’a.
6 Wasethuma wabiza uBaraki indodana kaAbinowama eKedeshi koNafithali, wathi kuye: INkosi uNkulunkulu wakoIsrayeli kayilayanga yini isithi: Hamba usondele entabeni yeThabhori, uzithathele amadoda azinkulungwane ezilitshumi ebantwaneni bakoNafithali lebantwaneni bakoZebuluni?
Sai ta aika a kira mata Barak ɗan Abinowam daga Kedesh a Naftali, ta ce masa, “Ubangiji, Allah na Isra’ila ya umarce ka, ‘Je ka, ka ɗauki mutane Naftali da na Zebulun dubu goma tare da kai, ka yi jagoransu zuwa Dutse Tabor.
7 Njalo ngizadonsela kuwe esifuleni iKishoni uSisera induna yebutho likaJabini lenqola zakhe lexuku lakhe, ngimnikele esandleni sakho.
Zan jawo Sisera, shugaban mayaƙan Yabin, da keken yaƙinsa da mayaƙansa zuwa Kogin Kishon in ba da su a hannunku.’”
8 UBaraki wasesithi kuye: Uba uhamba lami, ngizahamba; kodwa uba ungahambi lami, kangiyikuhamba.
Barak ya ce, “In kika tafi tare da ni, zan tafi; amma in ba ki zo tare da ni ba, ba zan tafi ba.”
9 Wasesithi: Ngizahamba lokuhamba lawe, kodwa udumo kaluyikuba ngolwakho ngendlela ohamba ngayo, ngoba iNkosi izathengisa uSisera esandleni sowesifazana. Wasesukuma uDebora, wahamba loBaraki waya eKedeshi.
Debora ta ce, “To, shi ke nan, zan tafi tare da kai. Amma saboda yadda ka ɗauki wannan batun, darajar ba za tă zama taka ba, gama Ubangiji zai ba da Sisera a hannun mace.” Saboda haka Debora ta tafi tare da Barak zuwa Kedesh,
10 UBaraki wasebizela oZebuluni loNafithali eKedeshi. Kwasekusenyuka amadoda azinkulungwane ezilitshumi amlandela, loDebora wenyuka laye.
a can Barak ya kira Zebulun da Naftali. Mutum dubu goma suka kuma bi shi, Debora kuma tana tare da shi.
11 UHeberi umKeni wazehlukanisa-ke lamaKeni, abantwana bakaHobabi uyisezala kaMozisi, wamisa ithente lakhe kwaze kwaba sesihlahleni se-okhi eZahananimi eseduze leKedeshi.
To, Heber Bakene ya riga ya bar Keniyawa, zuriyar Hobab, ɗan’uwan matar Musa, ya kafa tentinsa wajen babban itace a Za’anannim kusa da Kedesh.
12 Basebebikela uSisera ukuthi uBaraki indodana kaAbinowama usenyukele entabeni yeThabhori.
Sa’ad da aka gaya wa Sisera cewa Barak ɗan Abinowam ya haura zuwa dutsen Tabor,
13 USisera wasebiza zonke izinqola zakhe, inqola ezingamakhulu ayisificamunwemunye zensimbi, labo bonke abantu ababelaye, kusukela eHaroshethi labezizwe kuze kufike esifuleni iKishoni.
sai Sisera ya tattara keken yaƙinsa na ƙarfe ɗari tara wuri ɗaya da dukan mutanen da suke tare da shi daga Haroshet Haggoyim zuwa Kogin Kishon.
14 UDebora wasesithi kuBaraki: Vuka! Ngoba yilo lolusuku iNkosi enikele ngalo uSisera esandleni sakho. Kayihambanga yini iNkosi phambi kwakho? Ngakho uBaraki wehla entabeni iThabhori lamadoda azinkulungwane ezilitshumi ngemva kwakhe.
Sa’an nan Debora ta ce wa Barak, “Je ka! Wannan ita ce ranar da Ubangiji ya ba da Sisera a hannunka. Ba Ubangiji ya riga ya sha gabanka?” Saboda haka Barak ya gangara zuwa Dutsen Tabor, da mutum dubu goma biye da shi.
15 INkosi yasimsanganisa uSisera lazo zonke izinqola lebutho lonke ngobukhali benkemba phambi kukaBaraki, kwaze kwathi uSisera wehla enqoleni wabaleka ngenyawo zakhe.
Da matsowar Barak, Ubangiji ya murƙushe Sisera da dukan sarakunansa da mayaƙansa da takobi, Sisera kuwa ya gudu da ƙafa ya bar keken yaƙinsa.
16 UBaraki wasexotshana lezinqola lebutho, waze wafika eHaroshethi labezizwe; ibutho lonke likaSisera laselisiwa ngobukhali benkemba; kakusalanga loyedwa.
Amma Barak ya bi keken yaƙin da mayaƙan har Haroshet Haggoyim. Aka karkashe dukan mayaƙan Sisera ba ko ɗayan da ya tsira.
17 Kodwa uSisera wabaleka ngenyawo zakhe waya ethenteni likaJayeli umkaHeberi umKeni, ngoba kwakulokuthula phakathi kukaJabini inkosi yeHazori lendlu kaHeberi umKeni.
Amma Sisera, ya tsere da ƙafa zuwa tentin Yayel, matar Heber Bakene, domin suna da abokantaka da Yabin sarkin Hazor da kuma kabilar Heber Bakene.
18 UJayeli wasephuma ukuhlangabeza uSisera, wathi kuye: Phambuka, nkosi yami, phambukela kimi, ungesabi. Wasephambukela kuye ethenteni, wamembesa ngengubo.
Yayel ta fito ta taryi Sisera ta ce masa, “Ranka yă daɗe, ka shigo, ka shigo ciki. Kada ka ji tsoro.” Saboda haka ya shiga cikin tentinta, sai ta rufe shi da bargo.
19 Wasesithi kuye: Akunginathise amanzi amalutshwana ngoba ngomile. Wasesibukula igula lochago, wamnathisa, wamembesa.
Sai ya ce, “Ina roƙonki, ki ba ni ruwa in sha, ina jin ƙishirwa.” Sai ta buɗe salkar madara, ta ba shi ya sha, sai ta kuma rufe shi.
20 Wasesithi kuye: Mana emnyango wethente; kuzakuthi-ke, uba kufika umuntu kuwe ekubuza esithi: Kulomuntu lapha yini? Uzakuthi: Kakulamuntu.
Ya ce mata, “Ki tsaya a ƙofar tenti, in wani ya zo ya tambaye ki, ‘Akwai wani a nan?’ Ki ce masa ‘a’a.’”
21 Kodwa uJayeli umkaHeberi wathatha isikhonkwane sethente, wafaka isando esandleni sakhe, wamnyenyela, wabethela isikhonkwane enhlafunweni yakhe sangena emhlabathini, ngoba yena wayelele ubuthongo obukhulu, ediniwe, wasesifa.
Amma Yayel, matar Heber, ta ɗauki turken tenti da guduma ta tafi wurinsa da sauri sa’ad da yake barci saboda gajiya. Ta kafa masa turken a gindin kunnensa ta haɗa shi da ƙasa, har ya mutu.
22 Khangela-ke, uBaraki waxotsha uSisera; uJayeli wasephuma ukumhlangabeza wathi kuye: Woza, ngizakutshengisa umuntu omdingayo. Wasengena ethenteni lakhe, khangela-ke, uSisera wayelele efile, lesikhonkwane sasisenhlafunweni yakhe.
Sai ga Barak mai bin sawun Sisera, Yayel kuwa ta fito don marabtarsa, ta ce, “Shigo, zan nuna maka mutumin da kake nema.” Saboda haka ya shiga ciki tare da ita, sai ga Sisera kwance da turken a gindin kunnensa, matacce.
23 Ngakho ngalolosuku uNkulunkulu wamehlisela phansi uJabini inkosi yeKhanani phambi kwabantwana bakoIsrayeli.
A ranar Allah ya yi kaca-kaca da Yabin, sarkin Kan’ana a gaban Isra’ila.
24 Isandla sabantwana bakoIsrayeli saqhubeka-ke saba nzima phezu kukaJabini inkosi yeKhanani, baze bamchitha uJabini inkosi yeKhanani.
Isra’ilawa kuwa suka ƙara ƙarfi gāba da Yabin, sarkin Kan’aniyawa, har suka hallaka shi.
