< Juízes 4 >
1 Porém os filhos d'Israel tornaram a fazer o que parecia mal aos olhos do Senhor, depois de fallecer Ehud.
The children of Israel again did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, when Ehud was dead.
2 E vendeu-os o Senhor em mão de Jabin, rei de Canaan, que reinava em Hazor: e Sisera era o capitão do seu exercito, o qual então habitava em Haroseth dos gentios.
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 Então os filhos d'Israel clamaram ao Senhor, porquanto elle tinha novecentos carros ferrados, e vinte annos opprimia os filhos d'Israel violentamente.
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 E Debora, mulher prophetiza, mulher de Lappidoth, julgava a Israel n'aquelle tempo.
Now Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lappidoth, judged Israel at that time.
5 E habitava debaixo das palmeiras de Debora, entre Rama e Beth-el, nas montanhas d'Ephraim: e os filhos d'Israel subiam a ella a juizo.
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 judgment.
6 E enviou, e chamou a Barac, filho de Abinoam de Kedes de Naphtali, e disse-lhe: Porventura o Senhor Deus d'Israel não deu ordem, dizendo: Vae, e attrahe gente ao monte de Tabor, e toma comtigo dez mil homens dos filhos de Naphtali e dos filhos de Zebulon?
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 E attrahirei a ti para o ribeiro de Kison a Sisera, capitão do exercito de Jabin, com os seus carros, e com a sua multidão: e o darei na tua mão.
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 Então lhe disse Barac: Se fôres comigo, irei: porém, se não fôres comigo, não irei.
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 E disse ella: Certamente irei comtigo, porém não será tua a honra pelo caminho que levas; pois á mão de uma mulher o Senhor venderá a Sisera. E Debora se levantou, e partiu com Barac para Kedes
She said, “I will surely go with you. Nevertheless, the journey that you take won’t be for your honor; for the LORD will sell Sisera into a woman’s hand.” Deborah arose, and went with Barak to Kedesh.
10 Então Barac convocou a Zebulon e a Naphtali em Kedes, e subiu com dez mil homens após de si: e Debora subiu com elle,
Barak called Zebulun and Naphtali together to Kedesh. Ten thousand men followed him; and Deborah went up with him.
11 E Heber, keneo, se tinha apartado dos keneos, dos filhos de Hobab, sogro de Moysés: e tinha estendido as suas tendas até ao carvalho de Saanaim, que está junto a Kedes.
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 E annunciaram a Sisera que Barac, filho de Abinoam, tinha subido ao monte de Tabor.
They told Sisera that Barak the son of Abinoam had gone up to Mount Tabor.
13 E Sisera convocou todos os seus carros, novecentos carros ferrados, e todo o povo que estava com elle, desde Haroseth dos gentios até ao ribeiro de Kison.
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 Então disse Debora a Barac: Levanta-te; porque este é o dia em que o Senhor tem dado a Sisera na tua mão: porventura o Senhor não saiu diante de ti? Barac pois desceu do monte de Tabor, e dez mil homens após d'elle.
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 E o Senhor derrotou a Sisera, e a todos os seus carros, e a todo o seu exercito ao fio da espada, diante de Barac: e Sisera desceu do carro, e fugiu a pé.
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 E Barac os seguiu após dos carros, e após do exercito, até Haroseth dos gentios: e todo o exercito de Sisera caiu ao fio da espada, até não ficar um só.
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 Porém Sisera fugiu a pé á tenda de Jael, mulher de Heber, keneo: porquanto havia paz entre Jabin, rei de Hazor, e a casa de Heber, keneo.
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 E Jael saiu ao encontro de Sisera, e disse-lhe: Retira-te, senhor meu, retira-te a mim, não temas. Retirou-se a ella á tenda, e cobriu-o com uma coberta.
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 Então elle lhe disse: Dá-me, peço-te, de beber uma pouca d'agua; porque tenho sede. Então ella abriu um odre de leite, e deu-lhe de beber, e o cobriu.
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 E elle lhe disse: Põe-te á porta da tenda; e ha de ser que se alguem vier, e te perguntar, e disser: Ha aqui alguem? responde tu então: Não.
He said to her, “Stand in the door of the tent, and if any man comes and inquires of you, and says, ‘Is there any man here?’ you shall say, ‘No.’”
21 Então Jael, mulher d'Heber, tomou uma estaca da tenda, e lançou mão d'um martello, e foi-se mansamente a elle, e lhe cravou a estaca na fonte, e a pregou na terra, estando elle porém carregado d'um profundo somno, e já cançado; e assim morreu.
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 E eis que, seguindo Barac a Sisera, Jael lhe saiu ao encontro, e disse-lhe: Vem, e mostrar-te-hei o homem que buscas. E veiu a ella, e eis-que Sisera jazia morto, e a estaca na fonte.
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 Assim Deus n'aquelle dia sujeitou a Jabin, rei de Canaan, diante dos filhos de Israel.
So God subdued Jabin the king of Canaan before the children of Israel on that day.
24 E continuou a mão dos filhos de Israel a proseguir e endurecer-se sobre Jabin, rei de Canaan: até que exterminaram a Jabin, rei de Canaan.
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.
