< Sodniki 4 >
1 Ko je bil Ehúd mrtev, so Izraelovi otroci ponovno počeli zlo v Gospodovih očeh.
The children of Israel again did that which was evil in the sight of the LORD, when Ehud was dead.
2 Gospod jih je prodal v roko kánaanskega kralja Jabína, ki je kraljeval v Hacórju, katerega poveljnik vojske je bil Siserá, ki je prebival v Haróšetu poganov.
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 Haggoyim.
3 Izraelovi otroci so vpili h Gospodu, kajti imel je devetsto bojnih vozov iz železa in dvajset let je mogočno zatiral Izraelove otroke.
The children of Israel cried to the LORD: for he had nine hundred chariots of iron; and twenty years he mightily oppressed the children of Israel.
4 Ob tistem času je Izraelu sodila prerokinja Debóra, Lapidótova žena.
Now Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lappidoth, she judged Israel at that time.
5 Prebivala je pod Debórinim palmovim drevesom med Ramo in Betelom, na gori Efrájim in Izraelovi otroci so prihajali gor k njej za sodbo.
She lived under the palm tree of Deborah between Ramah and Bethel in the hill country of Ephraim: and the children of Israel came up to her for judgment.
6 Poslala je in poklicala Abinóamovega sina Baráka iz Kedeš-Neftálija in mu rekla: »Ali ni Gospod, Izraelov Bog, zapovedal, rekoč: ›Pojdi in odpravi se proti gori Tabor in s seboj vzemi deset tisoč mož izmed Neftálijevih otrok in Zábulonovih otrok?‹
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 draw to Mount Tabor, and take with you ten thousand men of the people of Naphtali and of the people of Zebulun?
7 K tebi, k reki Kišón, bom pritegnila Siserája, poveljnika Jabínove vojske, z njegovimi bojnimi vozovi in njegovo množico in izročila ga bom v tvojo roko.«
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 Barák ji je rekel: »Če boš šla z menoj, potem bom šel, če pa ne boš šla z menoj, potem ne bom šel.«
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, for I do not know the day on which the LORD prospers his angel with me."
9 Rekla je: »Zagotovo bom šla s teboj, vendar potovanje, na katero greš, ne bo v tvojo čast, kajti Gospod bo Siserája prodal v roko ženske.« Debóra je vstala in z Barákom odšla v Kedeš.
She said, "I will surely go with you, but know that the journey that you take will not be for your honor; for the LORD will sell Sisera into the hand of a woman." Deborah arose, and went with Barak to Kedesh.
10 Barák je v Kedeš poklical Zábulona in Neftálija in ta je odšel gor z deset tisoč možmi ob svojih stopalih in Debóra je z njim odšla gor.
Barak called Zebulun and Naphtali together to Kedesh; and there went up ten thousand men at his feet: and Deborah went up with him.
11 Torej Kenéjec Heber, ki je bil izmed otrok Mojzesovega tasta Hobába, se je oddvojil od Kenéjcev in si svoj šotor postavil na ravnini Caananím, ki je pri Kedešu.
Now Heber the Kenite had separated himself from the Kenites, even from the descendants of Hobab the brother-in-law of Moses, and had pitched his tent as far as the oak in Zaanannim, which is by Kedesh.
12 Siseráju so naznanili, da je Abinóamov sin Barák odšel gor h gori Tabor.
And it was reported to Sisera that Barak the son of Abinoam had gone up to Mount Tabor.
13 Siserá je zbral skupaj vse svoje bojne vozove, devetsto železnih bojnih vozov in vse ljudstvo, ki je bilo z njim, od Haróšeta poganov do reke Kišón.
Sisera gathered together all his chariots, even nine hundred chariots of iron, and all the people who were with him, from Harosheth Haggoyim, to the river Kishon.
14 Debóra je rekla Baráku: »Vstani, kajti to je dan, na katerega je Gospod izročil Siserája v tvojo roko. Ali ni Gospod šel ven pred teboj?« Tako je Barák odšel dol z gore Tabor in deset tisoč mož za njim.
Deborah said to Barak, "Arise, 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 Gospod je pred Barákom z ostrino meča porazil Siserája, vse njegove bojne vozove in vso njegovo vojsko, tako da se je Siserá spustil iz svojega bojnega voza in pobegnil na svojih stopalih.
The LORD confused Sisera, and all his chariots, and all his army, with the edge of the sword before Barak; and Sisera got off from his chariot, and fled away on his feet.
16 Toda Barák je zasledoval bojne vozove in vojsko do Haróšeta poganov in vsa Siserájeva vojska je padla na ostrino meča in niti mož ni preostal.
But Barak pursued after the chariots, and after the army, to Harosheth Haggoyim: and all the army of Sisera fell by the edge of the sword; there was not a man left.
17 Vendar je Siserá na svojih stopalih pobegnil proč k šotoru Jaéle, žene Kenéjca Heberja, kajti mir je bil med Jabínom, kraljem Hacórja in hišo Kenéjca Heberja.
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 Jaéla je odšla ven, da sreča Siserája ter mu rekla: »Zavij noter, moj gospod, zavij noter k meni. Ne boj se.« Ko je zavil noter, k njej v šotor, ga je pokrila z ogrinjalom.
Jael went out to meet Sisera, and said to him, "Turn in, my lord, turn in to me; do not be afraid." He came in to her into the tent, and she covered him with a rug.
19 Rekel ji je: »Daj mi, prosim te, piti malo vode, kajti žejen sem.« Odprla je meh mleka, mu dala piti in ga pokrila.
He said to her, "Please give me a little water to drink; for I am thirsty." She opened a bottle of milk, and gave him drink, and covered him.
20 Ponovno ji je rekel: »Stoj v vratih šotora in zgodilo se bo, ko pride katerikoli mož in od tebe poizveduje in reče: ›Ali je tam kakšen mož, ‹ da boš rekla: ›Ne.‹
He said to her, "Stand in the door of the tent, and it shall be, when any man comes and inquires of you, and says, 'Is there any man here?' that you shall say, 'No.'"
21 Potem je Heberjeva žena Jaéla vzela šotorski klin in v svojo roko vzela kladivo in po tiho odšla k njemu in klin zabila v njegova sènca in ga pritrdila k tlom, kajti trdno je zaspal in bil je izmučen. Tako je umrl.
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 died.
22 Glej, ko je Barák zasledoval Siserája, je Jaéla prišla ven, da ga sreča ter mu rekla: »Pridi in pokazala ti bom moža, ki ga iščeš.« Ko je vstopil v njen šotor, glej, Siserá je ležal mrtev in klin je bil v njegovih sèncih.
Look, 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 look, Sisera lay dead, and the tent peg was in his temples.
23 Tako je Bog na ta dan pred Izraelovimi otroki podjarmil kánaanskega kralja Jabína.
So God subdued on that day Jabin the king of Canaan before the children of Israel.
24 Roka Izraelovih otrok je uspevala in prevladala zoper kánaanskega kralja Jabína, dokler niso uničili kánaanskega kralja Jabína.
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.
