Sodniki 5
1 Potem sta Debóra in Abinóamov sin Barák tisti dan zapela, rekoč:
And Deborah singeth — also Barak son of Abinoam — on that day, saying: —
2 »Hvalite Gospoda za maščevanje Izraela, ko se je ljudstvo voljno darovalo.
'For freeing freemen in Israel, For a people willingly offering themselves Bless ye Jehovah.
3 Poslušajte, oh vi kralji, pazljivo prisluhnite, oh vi princi. Jaz, celó jaz, bom prepevala Gospodu. Prepevala bom hvalo Gospodu, Izraelovemu Bogu.
Hear, ye kings; give ear, ye princes, I, to Jehovah, I — I do sing, I sing praise to Jehovah, God of Israel.
4 Gospod, ko si šel iz Seírja, ko si korakal ven iz edómskega polja, je zemlja trepetala in nebo je kapljalo, tudi oblaki so kapljali vodo.
Jehovah, in Thy going forth out of Seir, In Thy stepping out of the field of Edom, Earth trembled, also the heavens dropped, Also thick clouds dropped water.
5 Gore so se topile pred Gospodom, celó tisti Sinaj pred Gospodom, Izraelovim Bogom.
Hills flowed from the face of Jehovah, This one — Sinai — From the face of Jehovah, God of Israel.
6 V dneh Anátovega sina Šamgárja, v dneh Jaéle, so bile glavne ceste prazne in popotniki so hodili po stranskih poteh.
In the days of Shamgar son of Anath — In the days of Jael — The ways have ceased, And those going in the paths go [in] crooked ways.
7 Prebivalci vasi so prenehali, prenehali so v Izraelu, dokler nisem vstala jaz, Debóra, ki sem vstala, mati v Izraelu.
Villages ceased in Israel — they ceased, Till that I arose — Deborah, That I arose, a mother in Israel.
8 Izbrali so nove bogove. Potem je bila vojna v velikih vratih. Ali sta bila ščit ali sulica videna med štiridesetimi tisoči v Izraelu?
He chooseth new gods, Then war [is] at the gates! A shield is not seen — and a spear Among forty thousand in Israel.
9 Moje srce je [nagnjeno] k Izraelovim voditeljem, ki so se voljno darovali med ljudstvom. Blagoslavljajte Gospoda.
My heart [is] to the lawgivers of Israel, Who are offering themselves willingly among the people, Bless ye Jehovah!
10 Govorite, vi, ki jahate na belih oslih, vi, ki sedite na sodbi in hodite po poti.
Riders on white asses — Sitters on a long robe — And walkers by the way — meditate!
11 Tisti, ki so bili osvobojeni pred hrupom lokostrelcev na krajih zajemanj vode, bodo tam ponavljali Gospodova pravična dejanja, celó pravična dejanja do prebivalcev njegovih vasi v Izraelu. Potem bo Gospodovo ljudstvo šlo dol k velikim vratom.
By the voice of shouters Between the places of drawing water, There they give out righteous acts of Jehovah, Righteous acts of His villages in Israel, Then ruled in the gates have the people of Jehovah.
12 Prebudi se, prebudi se, Debóra. Prebudi se, prebudi se, izusti pesem. Vstani Barák in vodí svoje ujeto ujetništvo, ti, Abinóamov sin.
Awake, awake, Deborah; Awake, awake, utter a song; Rise, Barak, and take captive thy captivity, Son of Abinoam.
13 Potem je naredil tistega, ki preostane, da ima gospostvo nad plemiči izmed ljudstva. Gospod me je naredil, da imam gospostvo nad mogočnimi.
Then him who is left of the honourable ones He caused to rule the people of Jehovah, He caused me to rule among the mighty.
14 Iz Efrájima je bila tam korenina tistih zoper Amáleka. Za teboj, Benjamin, med tvojim ljudstvom. Iz Mahírja so prišli dol voditelji in iz Zábulona tisti, ki vlečejo pisalo pisca.
Out of Ephraim their root [is] against Amalek. After thee, Benjamin, among thy peoples. Out of Machir came down lawgivers, And out of Zebulun those drawing with the reed of a writer.
15 Isahárjevi princi so bili z Debóro, celo Isahár in tudi Barák. Peš je bil poslan v dolino. Zaradi Rubenovih oddelkov so bile velike misli srca.
And princes in Issachar [are] with Deborah, Yea, Issachar [is] right with Barak, Into the valley he was sent on his feet. In the divisions of Reuben, Great [are] the decrees of heart!
16 Zakaj ostajaš med ovčjimi stajami, da poslušaš blejanje tropov? Zaradi Rubenovih oddelkov so bila velika preiskovanja srca.
Why hast thou abode between the boundaries, To hear lowings of herds? For the divisions of Reuben, Great [are] the searchings of heart!
17 Gileád je prebival onkraj Jordana in zakaj je Dan ostal v ladjah? Aser je nadaljeval na morski obali in prebival v svojih vrzelih.
Gilead beyond the Jordan did tabernacle, And Dan — why doth he sojourn [in] ships? Asher hath abode at the haven of the seas, And by his creeks doth tabernacle.
18 Zábulon in Neftáli sta bila ljudstvi, ki sta izpostavili svoja življenja smrti na visokih krajih polja.
Zebulun [is] a people who exposed its soul to death, Naphtali also — on high places of the field.
19 Kralji so prišli in se bojevali, potem so se pri vodah Megída v Taanáhu bojevali kánaanski kralji; nobenega dobička od denarja niso vzeli.
Kings came — they fought; Then fought kings of Canaan, In Taanach, by the waters of Megiddo; Gain of money they took not!
20 Vojskovali so se z neba. Zvezde na svojih orbitah so se bojevale zoper Siserája.
From the heavens they fought: The stars from their highways fought with Sisera.
21 Reka Kišón jih je odplavila, ta starodavna reka, reka Kišón. Oh moja duša, pomendrala si moč.
The brook Kishon swept them away, The brook most ancient — the brook Kishon. Thou dost tread down strength, O my soul!
22 Potem so bila konjska kopita zlomljena zaradi razloga drvenj, drvenj njihovih mogočnih.
Then broken were the horse-heels, By pransings — pransings of its mighty ones.
23 ›Prekolnite Meróz, ‹ je rekel Gospodov angel, grenko prekolnite njegove prebivalce, ker niso prišli na pomoč Gospodu, na pomoč Gospodu zoper mogočnega.‹
Curse Meroz — said a messenger of Jehovah, Cursing, curse ye its inhabitants, For they came not to the help of Jehovah, To the help of Jehovah among the mighty!
24 Blagoslovljena nad ženami naj bo Jaéla, žena Kenéjca Heberja, blagoslovljena nad ženami naj bo v šotoru.
Blessed above women is Jael, Wife of Heber the Kenite, Above women in the tent she is blessed.
25 Prosil je vode in dala mu je mleko. V gosposki skledi je prinesla maslo.
Water he asked — milk she gave; In a lordly dish she brought near butter.
26 Svojo roko je iztegnila h klinu in svojo desnico k delavčevemu kladivu in s kladivom je udarila Siserája, zdrobila mu je glavo, ko jo je predrla in udarila skozi njegova sènca.
Her hand to the pin she sendeth forth, And her right hand to the labourers' hammer, And she hammered Sisera — she smote his head, Yea, she smote, and it passed through his temple.
27 Ob njenih stopalih se je upognil, padel je, ulegel se je. Ob njenih stopalih se je upognil, padel je. Kjer se je upognil, tam je mrtev padel dol.
Between her feet he bowed — He fell, he lay down; Between her feet he bowed, he fell; Where he bowed, there he fell — destroyed.
28 Siserájeva mati je pogledala skozi okno in zaklicala skozi mrežo: ›Zakaj se njegov bojni voz tako dolgo mudi? Zakaj se mudijo kolesa njegovih bojnih vozov?‹
Through the window she hath looked out — Yea, she crieth out — the mother of Sisera, Through the lattice: Wherefore is his chariot delaying to come? Wherefore tarried have the steps of his chariot?
29 Njene modre gospe so ji odgovorile, da, sebi je vrnila odgovor:
The wise ones, her princesses, answer her, Yea, she returneth her sayings to herself:
30 ›Ali niso pohiteli? Ali niso razdelili plena; vsakemu možu gospodično ali dve. Siseráju plen številnih barv, plen številnih barv vezenine, številnih barv vezenine na obeh straneh, primerne za vratove tistih, ki jemljejo plen?‹
Do they not find? — they apportion spoil, A female — two females — for every head, Spoil of finger-work for Sisera, Spoil of embroidered finger-work, Finger-work — a pair of embroidered things, For the necks of the spoil!
31 Tako naj vsi tvoji sovražniki propadejo, oh Gospod, toda naj bodo tisti, ki ga ljubijo, kakor sonce, ko vzide v svoji moči.« In dežela je imela štirideset let počitek.
So do all Thine enemies perish, O Jehovah, And those loving Him [are] As the going out of the sun in its might!' and the land resteth forty years.
