< Abbootii Murtii 4 >

1 Erga Eehuud duʼee booddee Israaʼeloonni ammas fuula Waaqayyoo duratti waan hamaa hojjetan.
And the children of Israel again did evil in the eyes of the Lord when Ehud was dead.
2 Kanaafuu Waaqayyo Yaabiin mootii Kanaʼaan kan Haazoor taaʼee bulchaa turetti dabarsee isaan gurgure. Ajajaan loltoota isaa Siisaaraa jedhama ture; innis Harooshet Hagooyim keessa jiraata ture.
And the Lord gave them up into the hands of Jabin, king of Canaan, who was ruling in Hazor; the captain of his army was Sisera, who was living in Harosheth of the Gentiles.
3 Inni sababii gaariiwwan sibiilaa dhibba sagal qabuuf waggaa digdama akka malee Israaʼeloota hacuuce; isaanis gargaarsa barbaacha Waaqayyotti iyyatan.
Then the children of Israel made prayer to the Lord; for he had nine hundred iron war-carriages, and for twenty years he was very cruel to the children of Israel.
4 Yeroo sanatti niitiin Lafiidoot Debooraan raajittiin Israaʼelin bulchaa turte.
Now Deborah, a woman prophet, the wife of Lapidoth, was judge of Israel at that time.
5 Isheenis biyya gaaraa Efreemitti Muka Meexxii Debooraa kan Raamaa fi Beetʼeel gidduutti argamu sana jala teessee murtii kennaa turte. Sabni Israaʼelis murtii argachuuf gara ishee dhufaa ture.
(And she had her seat under the palm-tree of Deborah between Ramah and Beth-el in the hill-country of Ephraim; and the children of Israel came up to her to be judged.)
6 Isheenis Baaraaqi ilma Abiinooʼam biyya Niftaalem magaalaa Qaadeshiitii waamsifatee akkana jetteen; “Waaqayyo Waaqni Israaʼel akkana jedhee si ajaja; ‘Kaʼi; gosa Niftaalemii fi gosa Zebuuloon keessaa nama kuma kudhan fudhadhuutii Tulluu Taabooriitti ol baʼi.
And she sent for Barak, the son of Abinoam, from Kedesh-naphtali, and said to him, Has not the Lord, the God of Israel, given orders saying, Go and get your force into line in Mount Tabor, and take with you ten thousand men of the children of Naphtali and of the children of Zebulun?
7 Anis Siisaaraa, ajajaa loltoota Yaabiin sana gaariiwwan lolaatii fi loltoota isaa wajjin akka inni gara Laga Qiishoonitti baʼu nan kakaasa; isas harka keetti dabarsee nan kenna.’”
And I will make Sisera, the captain of Jabin's army, with his war-carriages and his forces, come against you at the river Kishon, where I will give him into your hands.
8 Baaraaqis, “Yoo ati na wajjin deemte, ani nan deema; yoo ati na wajjin hin deemin garuu anis hin deemu” jedheen.
And 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 Debooraanis, “Ani dhugumaan si faana nan deema. Yoo ati haala kanaan deemte garuu ulfinni siʼiif hin taʼu; Waaqayyo dabarsee Siisaaraa harka dubartiitti kennaatii” jetteen. Kanaafuu Debooraan Baaraaqi faana gara Qaadesh deemte;
And she said, I will certainly go with you: though you will get no honour in your undertaking, for the Lord will give Sisera into the hands of a woman. So Deborah got up and went with Barak to Kedesh.
10 Baaraaqis achitti namoota gosa Zebuuloonii fi gosa Niftaalem walitti waame. Namoonni kuma kudhan isa duukaa buʼan; Debooraanis isa faana deemte.
Then Barak sent for Zebulun and Naphtali to come to Kedesh; and ten thousand men went up after him, and Deborah went up with him.
11 Yeroo sanatti Hebeer namichi gosa Qeen abbaan niitii Musee sun Qeenota ilmaan Hoobaab kaan irraa citee Qaadesh biratti lafa Zaʼaanaaniim jedhamutti qilxuu guddaa jala dunkaana isaa dhaabbatee ture.
Now Heber the Kenite, separating himself from the rest of the Kenites, from the children of Hobab, the brother-in-law of Moses, had put up his tent as far away as the oak-tree in Zaanannim, by Kedesh.
12 Siisaaraan yommuu akka Baaraaqi ilmi Abiinooʼam sun gara Tulluu Taabooritti ol baʼee dhagaʼetti,
And word was given to Sisera that Barak, the son of Abinoam, had gone up to Mount Tabor.
13 gaariiwwan sibiilaa dhibba sagalii fi loltoota isaa kanneen Harooshet Hagooyimii hamma Laga Qiishoonitti argaman hundumaa walitti qabate.
So Sisera got together all his war-carriages, nine hundred war-carriages of iron, and all the people who were with him, from Harosheth of the Gentiles as far as the river Kishon.
14 Kana irratti Debooraan Baaraaqiin, “Kaʼi! Guyyaan Waaqayyo Siisaaraa dabarsee harka keetti kenne harʼa. Kunoo Waaqayyo si dura baʼeera” jette. Kanaafuu Baaraaqi namoota kuma kudhan fudhatee Tulluu Taaboor irraa gad buʼe.
Then Deborah said to Barak, Up! for today the Lord has given Sisera into your hands: has not the Lord gone out before you? So Barak went down from Mount Tabor and ten thousand men after him.
15 Waaqayyos akka Siisaaraan, gaariiwwan isaatii fi loltoonni isaa hundinuu goraadeedhaan fuula Baaraaqi duratti moʼatamanii duubatti deebiʼan godhe; Siisaaraan gaarii isaa irraa buʼee miillaan baqate.
And the Lord sent fear on Sisera and all his war-carriages and all his army before Barak; and Sisera got down from his war-carriage and went in flight on foot.
16 Baaraaqi garuu gaariiwwanii fi loltoota Siisaaraa hamma Harooshet Hagooyimiitti ariʼe; loltoonni Siisaaraa hundinuu goraadeedhaan dhuman. Namni tokko iyyuu hin hafne.
But Barak went after the war-carriages and the army as far as Harosheth of the Gentiles; and all Sisera's army was put to the sword; not a man got away.
17 Siisaaraan garuu sababii Yaabiin mooticha Haazoorii fi Hebeer namicha balbala Qeen sana gidduu hariiroon gaariin tureef gara dunkaana Yaaʼeel niitii Hebeer sanaatti miillaan baqate.
But Sisera went in flight on foot to the tent of Jael, the wife of Heber the Kenite; for there was peace between Jabin, king of Hazor, and the family of Heber the Kenite.
18 Yaaʼeelis Siisaaraa simachuuf gad baatee, “Kottu yaa gooftaa koo; kottu ol seeni; hin sodaatin” isaan jette. Innis dunkaana ishee seene; isheenis wayyaa isa irra buuftee dhoksite.
And Jael went out to Sisera, and said to him, Come in, my lord, come in to me without fear. So he went into her tent, and she put a cover over him.
19 Innis, “Ani dheebodheera; maaloo bishaan naa kenni” jedheen. Isheenis qabee aannanii bantee waan inni dhugu kenniteefii isa dhoksite.
Then he said to her, Give me now a little water, for I have need of a drink. And opening a skin of milk, she gave him drink, and put the cover over him again.
20 Innis, “Balbala dunkaanaa dura dhaabadhu; yoo eenyu iyyuu dhufee, ‘Namni as jiraa?’ siin jedhe, ‘hin jiru’ jedhi” isheen jedhe.
And he said to her, Take your place at the door of the tent, and if anyone comes and says to you, Is there any man here, say, No.
21 Yaaʼeel niitiin Hebeer garuu utuu Siisaaraan hirriba cimaa keessa jiruu qofoo dunkaanaa fi burruusa fudhattee suuta jettee bira geesse. Qofoo sanaanis isa waraantee lafatti hodhite; innis ni duʼe.
Then Jael, Heber's wife, took a tent-pin and a hammer and went up to him quietly, driving the pin into his head, and it went through his head into the earth, for he was in a deep sleep from weariness; and so he came to his end.
22 Yommuu Baaraaqi Siisaaraa duukaa buʼee dhufettis, Yaaʼeel isa simachuudhaaf gad baatee, “Kottu nama ati barbaaddu sittan argisiisaa” jetteen. Kanaafuu inni ishee wajjin gara dunkaanichaatti ol seenee Siisaaraa akkuma illeen isaa qofoodhaan waraanametti reeffa isaa arge.
Then Jael went out, and meeting Barak going after Sisera, said to him, Come, and I will let you see the man you are searching for. So he came into her tent and saw, and there was Sisera stretched out dead with the tent-pin in his head.
23 Waaqnis gaafa sana akka Yaabiin mootiin Kanaʼaanotaa fuula Israaʼelootaa duratti moʼatamu godhe.
So that day God overcame Jabin, king of Canaan, before the children of Israel.
24 Harki Israaʼelootaas hamma isaan Yaabiin mooticha Kanaʼaanotaa galaafatanitti jajjabaachaa deeme.
And the power of the children of Israel went on increasing against Jabin, king of Canaan, till he was cut off.
