Abbootii Murtii 5
1 Gaafas Debooraa fi Baaraaqi ilmi Abiinooʼam akkana jedhanii faarfatan:
And Debbora and Barac son of Abineem sang in that day, saying,
2 “Yommuu ilmaan moototaa Israaʼelin hoogganan, yommuu sabni Israaʼelis jaallatee of kennutti Waaqayyoon galateeffadhaa!
A revelation was made in Israel when the people were made willing: Praise you the Lord.
3 “Yaa mootota, waan kana dhagaʼaa! Bulchitoonnis dhaggeeffadhaa! Waaqayyoon nan faarfadha; amma illee nan faarfadha; Waaqayyo Waaqa Israaʼeliif nan weeddisa.
Hear, you kings, and listen, rulers: I will sing, it is I [who will sing] to the Lord, it is I, I will sing a psalm to the Lord the god of Israel.
4 “Yaa Waaqayyo, yeroo ati biyya Seeʼiirii baate, yeroo ati biyya Edoomii kaate, lafti ni sochoote; samiiwwanis bokkaa, duumessoonnis bishaan gad roobsan.
O Lord, in your going forth on Seir, when you went forth out of the land of Edom, the earth quaked and the heaven dropped dews, and the clouds dropped water.
5 Tulluuwwan fuula Waaqayyo Waaqa Siinaa duratti, fuula Waaqayyo Waaqa Israaʼel duratti ni raafaman.

7 Hamma ani Debooraan, haadha taʼee Israaʼeliif kaʼutti, gandoonni Israaʼel duwwaa hafu.
The mighty men in Israel failed, they failed until Debbora arose, until she arose a mother in Israel.
8 Yommuu isaan waaqota haaraa filatanitti, waraanni hamma karra magaalaatti dhufe; gaachanni yookaan eeboon tokko, Israaʼeloota kuma afurtama gidduutti hin argamne.
They chose new gods; then the cities of rulers fought; there was not a shield or spear seen among forty thousand in Israel.
9 Garaan koo bulchitoota Israaʼel kanneen fedhiidhaan saba gidduutti argaman wajjin jira. Waaqayyoon leellisaa!
My heart [inclines] to the orders given in Israel; you that are willing among the people, bless the Lord.
10 “Isin warri harroota adaadii yaabbatan, warri kooraa baladii qabu irra teessan, warri karaa irra deemtan hubadhaa;
You that mount a she-ass at noon-day, you that sit on the judgment-seat, and walk by the roads of them that sit in judgment by the way; declare
11 sagalee faarfattootaa dhagaʼaa. Isaan hojii qajeelummaa Waaqayyoo, hojii qajeelummaa loltoonni isaa Israaʼel keessatti godhan odeessu. “Ergasii saboonni Waaqayyoo, gara karra magaalattiitti gad buʼan.
[you that are delivered] from the noise of disturbers among the drawers of water; there shall they relate righteous acts: O Lord, increase righteous acts in Israel: then the people of the Lord went down to the cities.
12 ‘Yaa Debooraa! Dammaqi; dammaqi; dammaqi; dammaqi; faarfannaas faarfadhu! Yaa Baaraaqi! Dammaqi; yaa ilma Abiinooʼam boojiʼamtoota kee boojiʼii fudhadhu.’
Awake, awake, Debbora; awake, awake, utter a song: arise, Barac, and lead your captivity captive, son of Abineem.
13 “Namoonni hafanis, gara warra gurguddaatti gad buʼan; sabni Waaqayyoos, akka loltuu jabaatti gara koo dhufe.
Then went down the remnant to the strong, the people of the Lord went down for him among the mighty ones from me.
14 Warri hiddi isaanii Amaaleq keessa jiru tokko tokkos Efreem dhufan; Beniyaamis namoota si duukaa buʼan wajjin ture. Ajajjoonni loltoota Maakiir, warri bokkuu ajajjuu qabatanis Zebuuloonii gad buʼan.

Why did they sit between the sheepfolds to hear the bleating of flocks for the divisions of Ruben? [there were] great searchings of heart.
