Sudije 5
1 I u taj dan pjeva Devora i Varak sin Avinejemov govoreæi:
Then Deborah and Barak the son of Abinoam sang on that day, saying,
2 Blagosiljajte Gospoda što uèini osvetu u Izrailju i što narod dragovoljno prista.
“Because the leaders took the lead in Israel, because the people offered themselves willingly, be blessed, LORD!
3 Èujte carevi, slušajte knezovi; ja, ja æu Gospodu pjevati, popijevaæu Gospodu Bogu Izrailjevu.
“Hear, you kings! Give ear, you princes! I, even I, will sing to the LORD. I will sing praise to the LORD, the God of Israel.
4 Gospode! kad si slazio sa Sira, kad si išao iz polja Edomskoga, zemlja se tresijaše, i nebesa kapahu, oblaci kapahu vodom.
“LORD, when you went out of Seir, when you marched out of the field of Edom, the earth trembled, the sky also dropped. Yes, the clouds dropped water.
5 Brda se rastapahu pred Gospodom; taj Sinaj pred Gospodom Bogom Izrailjevijem.
The mountains quaked at the LORD’s presence, even Sinai at the presence of the LORD, the God of Israel.
6 Za vremena Samegara sina Anatova, za vremena Jailjina nesta putova, i koji iðahu stazama, iðahu krivijem putovima.
“In the days of Shamgar the son of Anath, in the days of Jael, the highways were unoccupied. The travellers walked through byways.
7 Nesta sela u Izrailju, nesta ih, dokle ne nastah ja, Devora, dokle ne nastah majka Izrailju.
The rulers ceased in Israel. They ceased until I, Deborah, arose; Until I arose a mother in Israel.
8 On izabra nove bogove, tada rat bijaše na vratima; viðaše li se štit ili koplje meðu èetrdeset tisuæa u Izrailju?
They chose new gods. Then war was in the gates. Was there a shield or spear seen amongst forty thousand in Israel?
9 Srce se moje privilo k upraviteljima Izrailjevijem, koji dragovoljno pristaše izmeðu naroda. Blagosiljajte Gospoda.
My heart is towards the governors of Israel, who offered themselves willingly amongst the people. Bless the LORD!
10 Koji jašete na bijelijem magaricama, koji sjedite u sudu i koji hodite po putovima, pripovijedajte.
“Speak, you who ride on white donkeys, you who sit on rich carpets, and you who walk by the way.
11 Prestala je praska streljaèka na mjestima gdje se voda crpe; ondje neka pripovijedaju pravdu Gospodnju, pravdu k selima njegovijem u Izrailju; tada æe narod Gospodnji slaziti na vrata.
Far from the noise of archers, in the places of drawing water, there they will rehearse the LORD’s righteous acts, the righteous acts of his rule in Israel. “Then the LORD’s people went down to the gates.
12 Ustani, ustani, Devoro; ustani, ustani, zapjevaj pjesmu; ustani, Varaèe, vodi u ropstvo roblje svoje, sine Avinejemov.
‘Awake, awake, Deborah! Awake, awake, utter a song! Arise, Barak, and lead away your captives, you son of Abinoam.’
13 Sada æe potlaèeni obladati silnima iz naroda; Gospod mi dade da vladam silnima.
“Then a remnant of the nobles and the people came down. The LORD came down for me against the mighty.
14 Iz Jefrema izide korijen njihov na Amalike; za tobom bješe Venijamin s narodom tvojim; od Mahira izidoše koji postavljaju zakone, a od Zavulona pisari.
Those whose root is in Amalek came out of Ephraim, after you, Benjamin, amongst your peoples. Governors come down out of Machir. Those who handle the marshal’s staff came out of Zebulun.
15 I knezovi Isaharovi biše s Devorom, Isahar kao i Varak bi poslan u dolinu s ljudima koje voðaše. U dijelu Ruvimovu bijahu ljudi visokih misli.
The princes of Issachar were with Deborah. As was Issachar, so was Barak. They rushed into the valley at his feet. By the watercourses of Reuben, there were great resolves of heart.
16 Što si sjedio meðu torovima slušajuæi kako bleje stada? U dijelu Ruvimovu bijahu ljudi visokih misli.
Why did you sit amongst the sheepfolds? To hear the whistling for the flocks? At the watercourses of Reuben, there were great searchings of heart.
17 Galad osta s onu stranu Jordana; a Dan što se zabavi kod laða? Asir zašto sjede na brijegu morskom i u krševima svojim osta?
Gilead lived beyond the Jordan. Why did Dan remain in ships? Asher sat still at the haven of the sea, and lived by his creeks.
18 Zavulon je narod koji dade dušu svoju na smrt, tako i Neftalim, na visokom polju.
Zebulun was a people that jeopardised their lives to the death; Naphtali also, on the high places of the field.
19 Doðoše carevi, biše se; biše se carevi Hananski u Tanahu na vodi Megidskoj; ali ni mrve srebra ne dobiše.
“The kings came and fought, then the kings of Canaan fought at Taanach by the waters of Megiddo. They took no plunder of silver.
20 S neba se vojeva, zvijezde s mjesta svojih vojevaše na Sisaru.
From the sky the stars fought. From their courses, they fought against Sisera.
21 Potok Kison odnese ih, potok Kadimin, potok Kison; pogazila si, dušo moja, snažno.
The river Kishon swept them away, that ancient river, the river Kishon. My soul, march on with strength.
22 Tada izotpadaše konjma kopita od tjeranja junaka njihovijeh.
Then the horse hoofs stamped because of the prancing, the prancing of their strong ones.
23 Proklinjite Miroz, reèe anðeo Gospodnji, proklinjite stanovnike njegove; jer ne doðoše u pomoæ Gospodu, u pomoæ Gospodu s junacima.
‘Curse Meroz,’ said the LORD’s angel. ‘Curse bitterly its inhabitants, because they didn’t come to help the LORD, to help the LORD against the mighty.’
24 Da je blagoslovena mimo žene Jailja žena Evera Kenejina; mimo žene u šatorima da je blagoslovena.
“Jael shall be blessed above women, the wife of Heber the Kenite; blessed shall she be above women in the tent.
25 Zaiska vode, mlijeka mu dade, u gospodskoj zdjeli donese mu povlaku.
He asked for water. She gave him milk. She brought him butter in a lordly dish.
26 Lijevom rukom maši se za kolac a desnom za malj kovaèki, i udari Sisaru, razmrska mu glavu; probode i probi mu slijepe oèi.
She put her hand to the tent peg, and her right hand to the workmen’s hammer. With the hammer she struck Sisera. She struck through his head. Yes, she pierced and struck through his temples.
27 Meðu noge njezine savi se, pade, leža; meðu noge njezine savi se, pade; gdje se savi, ondje pade mrtav.
At her feet he bowed, he fell, he lay. At her feet he bowed, he fell. Where he bowed, there he fell down dead.
28 S prozora gledaše majka Sisarina, i kroz rešetku vikaše: što se tako dugo ne vraæaju kola njegova? što se tako polako mièu toèkovi kola njegovijeh?
“Through the window she looked out, and cried: Sisera’s mother looked through the lattice. ‘Why is his chariot so long in coming? Why do the wheels of his chariots wait?’
29 Najmudrije izmeðu dvorkinja njezinijeh odgovarahu joj, a i sama odgovaraše sebi:
Her wise ladies answered her, Yes, she returned answer to herself,
30 Nijesu li našli? ne dijele li plijen? po jednu djevojku, po dvije djevojke na svakoga. Plijen šaren Sisari, plijen šaren, vezen; šaren, vezen s obje strane, oko vrata onima koji zaplijeniše.
‘Have they not found, have they not divided the plunder? A lady, two ladies to every man; to Sisera a plunder of dyed garments, a plunder of dyed garments embroidered, of dyed garments embroidered on both sides, on the necks of the plunder?’
31 Tako da izginu svi neprijatelji tvoji, Gospode; a koji te ljube da budu kao sunce kad izlazi u sili svojoj. I zemlja bi mirna èetrdeset godina.
“So let all your enemies perish, LORD, but let those who love him be as the sun when it rises in its strength.” Then the land had rest forty years.
