Книга Судей израилевых 4
1 И приложиша сынове Израилевы сотворити злое пред Господем: и Аод умре.
The children of Israel again did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, when Ehud was dead.
2 И отдаде их Господь в руку Иавина царя Ханаанска, иже царствова во Асоре. И воевода силы его Сисара, и той живяше во Арисофе языков.
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 И возопиша сынове Израилевы ко Господу, яко девять сот колесниц железных бяше ему: и той озлоби Израиля зело лет двадесять.
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 И Деввора, жена пророчица, жена Лафидофова, сия судяше Израилю в то время:
Now Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lappidoth, judged Israel at that time.
5 и сия живяше под Фиником Деввора между Рамою и между Вефилем, в горе Ефремли: и восхождаху сынове Израилевы к ней тамо на суд.
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 judgement.
6 И посла Деввора, и призва Варака сына Авинеемля из Кедеса Неффалимова, и рече к нему: не заповеда ли тебе Господь Бог Израилев? И пойдеши в гору Фавор, и поймеши с собою десять тысящ мужей от сынов Неффалимлих и от сынов Завулоних:
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 и приведу к тебе в водотечь Кисонь Сисару воеводу силы Иавини, и колесницы его, и множество (вой) его, и предам его в руки твоя.
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 И рече к ней Варак: аще пойдеши со мною, пойду, и аще не пойдеши со мною, не пойду: яко не вем дне, в оньже благоустроит Господь Ангела со мною.
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 И рече Деввора к нему: идущи пойду с тобою: обаче веждь, яко не будет тебе слава на пути, в оньже ты идеши: понеже в руку женску предаст Господь Сисару. И воста Деввора и пойде с Вараком до Кадиса.
She said, “I will surely go with you. Nevertheless, the journey that you take won’t be for your honour; for the LORD will sell Sisera into a woman’s hand.” Deborah arose, and went with Barak to Kedesh.
10 И воззва Варак Завулона и Неффалима до Кадиса, и поидоша вслед его десять тысящ мужей, и иде с ним Деввора.
Barak called Zebulun and Naphtali together to Kedesh. Ten thousand men followed him; and Deborah went up with him.
11 И Хавер Киней отлучися от Кены и от сынов Иовава, ужика Моисеова: и потче кущу свою под дубом Почивающих, иже есть при Кедесе.
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 И возвестиша Сисаре, яко взыде Варак сын Авинеемль на гору Фавор.
They told Sisera that Barak the son of Abinoam had gone up to Mount Tabor.
13 И созва Сисара вся колесницы своя, девять сот колесниц железных, и вся люди иже с ним, от Арисофа языков в водотечь Кисонь.
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 И рече Деввора к Вараку: востани, яко сей день, в оньже предаде Господь Сисару в руку твою, зане Господь изыдет пред тобою. И сниде Варак с горы Фавор, и десять тысящ мужей вслед его.
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 И сотре Господь Сисару и вся колесницы его и весь полк его острием меча пред Вараком. И сниде Сисара с колесницы своея и побеже ногами своими.
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 И Варак гоняй вслед колесниц его и вслед полка, даже до Дубравы языков. И паде весь полк Сисарин острием меча: не остася ни един.
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 И Сисара убеже ногами своими в кущу Иаили, жены Хавера Кинеева: яко мир бяше между Иавином царем Асорским и между домом Хавера Кинеева.
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 И изыде Иаиль во сретение Сисаре и рече к нему: уклонися, господине мой, уклонися ко мне, не бойся. И уклонися к ней в кущу: и покры его одеждею своею.
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 И рече Сисара к ней: напой мя мало воды, яко возжаждах. И отреши мех млечный, и напои его, и покры его.
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 И рече к ней Сисара: стани во дверех кущи, и будет аще кто приидет к тебе, и вопросит тя, и речет: есть ли зде муж? И речеши: несть.
He said to her, “Stand in the door of the tent, and if any man comes and enquires of you, and says, ‘Is there any man here?’ you shall say, ‘No.’”
21 И взя Иаиль, жена Хаверова, кол кущный, и взя млат в руку свою, и вниде к нему тихо, и водрузи кол во скрании его, и пронзе до земли: и сей утруждся спаше, и издше.
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 И се, Варак гоняй Сисару. И изыде Иаиль во сретение ему и рече ему: прииди, и покажу тебе мужа, егоже ты ищеши. И вниде к ней, и се, Сисара лежаше мертв, и кол во скрании его.
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 И покори Господь Бог в той день Иавина царя Ханааня пред сыны Израилевыми:
So God subdued Jabin the king of Canaan before the children of Israel on that day.
24 и хождаше рука сынов Израилевых ходящи, и ожесточися на Иавина царя Ханаанска, дондеже истребиша его.
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.
