1 Baada ya Ehudi kufa, Waisraeli wakafanya tena maovu machoni pa Bwana.
Ehud thinung in, Israelten Pakai mitmun thilse jeng abolkit tauvin.
2 Hivyo Bwana akawatia mikononi mwa Yabini, mfalme wa Kanaani, aliyetawala huko Hazori. Jemadari wa jeshi lake alikuwa Sisera, aliyeishi huko Haroshethi-Hagoyimu
Hijeh chun Pakaiyin Canaan mi Hajor lengpa Jabin khut’ah amaho chu apelut in, ama sepai lamkai chu Haresheth-haggoyim mi Sisera ahi.
3 Kwa kuwa Sisera alikuwa na magari ya chuma yapatayo 900, naye alikuwa amewatesa Waisraeli kwa ukatili kwa muda wa miaka ishirini, Waisraeli wakamlilia Bwana wakaomba msaada.
Siserah in thih sakol kangtalai jako aneiyin, kum somni sunga Israelte ana sugenthei lheh jeng in, hijeh chun Israelten Pakai koma panpi ngaiyin anakap tauvin ahi.
4 Debora, nabii mwanamke, mkewe Lapidothi, ndiye alikuwa anaamua Israeli wakati ule.
Hiche phatlai sunga chu Lappidoth jinu Deborah hi themgao ahin chule Israelte chunga thu anatana vai anahom ahi.
5 Debora alikuwa akiketi chini ya Mtende wa Debora uliokuwa kati ya Rama na Betheli katika nchi ya vilima ya Efraimu, nao Waisraeli wakaja kwake ili awaamue.
Themgaonu chu Ephraim thinglhang gam Ramah le Bethel kikah a tumphung lim noiya ana touji ahin, hiche muna chun Israelte anache jiuvin, amanu in achungthu anatan pehjiu ahi.
6 Akatuma wamwite Baraka mwana wa Abinoamu kutoka Kedeshi huko Naftali na kumwambia, “Bwana, Mungu wa Israeli, anakuagiza: ‘Nenda, chukua wanaume 10,000 toka Naftali na Zabuloni, mwende Mlima Tabori.
Nikhat Deborah chun, Naphtali gama Kadesh khopia cheng Abinoam chapa Barak aga kousah in, ama koma chun hitin anaseiyin, “Hiche hi Israel Pathen in nathupeh ahi, nangman Naphtali leh Zebulun phunga kon in galsat mi sangsom Tabor molchunga hinkou khom in,
7 Nitamshawishi Sisera, jemadari wa jeshi la Yabini, pamoja na magari yake na jeshi lake, hadi Mto Kishoni na kumtia mikononi mwako.’”
Chutengleh keiman Jabin kiti lamkaipa le athih sakol kangtalai ho, chule agalmite chengse khu Kishon vadunga kakoudoh ding; chuteng amaho chunga galjona nangma kapeh ding ahi,” ati.
8 Baraka akamwambia, “Ukienda pamoja nami nitakwenda, lakini usipokwenda pamoja nami, sitakwenda.”
Barak in jong adonbut’in “Nangman neikilhonpi dingleh che nange,” ati.
9 Debora akamwambia, “Hakika nitakwenda pamoja nawe, lakini njia unayoiendea haitakupa heshima wewe, kwa kuwa Bwana atamtia Sisera mikononi mwa mwanamke.” Hivyo Debora akaenda pamoja na Baraka mpaka Kedeshi,
Hichun Deborah in adonbut in, “Aphalheh jenge keiman kalhonpi ding nahi, ahinlah tuchung kalsonna a hi nangin minphatna namu louding ahi, ajeh chu Sisera chunga Pakaiyin galjona eipeh diu hi numei khutna kona bou hiding ahi”, ati. Hiti chun Deborah in Barak chu Kadesh geiyin ahin kilhon lutpi tai.
10 mahali ambapo Baraka aliwaita Zabuloni na Naftali. Watu 10,000 wakamfuata Baraka, na Debora pia akaenda pamoja naye.
Kadesh a chun, Barak in Zebulun leh Naphtali phunga kon in galsat mi sangsom akou khom in amahon ahin juiyun, Deborah injong akilhonpin ahi.
11 Basi Heberi, Mkeni, alikuwa amejitenga na Wakeni wengine, yaani, wazao wa Hobabu, mkwewe Mose, naye akapiga hema lake karibu na ule mti mkubwa wa mwaloni ulioko Saananimu, karibu na Kedeshi.
Hikoma chun Mose nupapa Hobab chilhah holah a Ken mi Heber chun ama phung lah a konin apotdoh in, achombeh in Kadesh kom Zaanannim gangpi phung koma chun aponbuh ana songin ahi.
12 Sisera alipoambiwa kuwa Baraka mwana wa Abinoamu alikuwa amepanda Mlima Tabori,
Sisera jah a chu Abinoam chapa Barak chu Tabor mol chunga akaltoutai, tia aseiphat uvin,
13 Sisera akakusanya pamoja magari yake yote 600 ya chuma na watu wote waliokuwa pamoja naye, kuanzia Haroshethi-Hagoyimu mpaka Mto wa Kishoni.
Aman thih sakol kangtalai jako leh a-sepai jouse akoudoh in Harosheth-haggoyim ana kon in Kishon vadung geiya ahung tou un ahi.
14 Ndipo Debora akamwambia Baraka, “Nenda! Hii ndiyo siku ambayo Bwana amemtia Sisera mikononi mwako. Je, Bwana hakukutangulia mbele yako?” Hivyo Baraka akashuka kutoka Mlima Tabori, akifuatwa na watu 10,000.
Hichun Deborah in Barak koma aseiyin, “Kigosadem’in um'in tunia hi Pakaiyin Sisera chunga galjona napeh ding ahi, ajeh chu Pakai hi namasanga akalsong tan ahi,” ati. Hiti chun Barak in galsat ding mi sangsom chu alamkaiyin Tabor mola konchun akum suh tauvin galmun chu ajonlut tauve.
15 Bwana akamfadhaisha Sisera na magari yake yote, pamoja na jeshi lake lote kwa upanga mbele ya Baraka, naye Sisera akaliacha gari lake na kukimbia kwa miguu.
Barak’in ahin nokhum phat chun Pakaiyin Sisera leh asakol kangtalai jouse leh agalsat ding jouse chu asuh nohphah pehtan, Sisera chu asakol kangtalai akon in aki chomlhan akengin ajamdoh tan ahi.
16 Lakini Baraka akafuata magari pamoja na jeshi mpaka Haroshethi-Hagoyimu. Jeshi lote la Sisera likaanguka kwa upanga, wala hakuna hata mtu mmoja aliyesalia.
Hichun Barak in sakol kangtalai holeh agalmiho chu Harosheth-haggoyim changei chun adel lut in, Sisera galmi jouse chu athatgam soh hel'in khatcha ahing hoi tapon ahi.
17 Sisera, hata hivyo, akakimbia kwa miguu mpaka kwenye hema la Yaeli, mkewe Heberi, Mkeni, kwa sababu palikuwa na uhusiano wa kirafiki kati ya Yabini mfalme wa Hazori na ukoo wa Heberi, Mkeni.
Hiche kahlah chun Sisera chu Ken mi Heber jinu Ja’el ponbuh a anajam lut’in ahi, ajeh chu Heber insung mite leh Hazor lengpa Jabin chu jolle gol hina a ana kihou thei ahiuve.
18 Yaeli akaenda kumlaki Sisera na kumwambia, “Karibu, bwana wangu, karibu ingia ndani kabisa. Usiogope.” Basi Sisera akaingia ndani ya hema ya Yaeli, naye akamfunika kwa blanketi nene.
Jael chu apotdoh in Sisera chu akimu pin akoma hitin anaseiye, “Kaponbuh sunga hunglut’in, kapu kichalou hel'in hung lut in ati. Hiti chun aponbuh sunga ana lut’in aman ponsil ponkhat in ana khu khum’in ahi.
19 Akamwambia, “Nina kiu, tafadhali nipe maji ya kunywa.” Ndipo akafungua kiriba cha maziwa na kumpa akanywa, kisha akamfunika.
Hichun Sisera in Jael hengah chun, “Twidon ding themkhat neihinpen kadang achah behseh e,” ati. Hiti chun amanun savun peng sunga bongnoi themkhat chu anapen pon chu akhu khum kit in ahi.
20 Naye Sisera akamwambia, “Simama mlangoni pa hema na mtu yeyote akija na kukuuliza, ‘Je, kuna mtu yeyote hapa?’ sema, ‘Hapana.’”
Hichun Sisera’n amanu koma chun, “Ponbuh kot phung koma chun ding inlang koitobang hamkhat ahunga na-in sung’a mi khattou um am tia ahung holleh aumpoi tin,” ati.
21 Ndipo Yaeli, mkewe Heberi, akatwaa kigingi cha hema, akachukua nyundo mkononi mwake, akamwendea polepole, akiwa amelala usingizi, akiwa amechoka. Akakigongomea kile kigingi kwenye paji la uso wake, kikapenya hata kuingia ardhini, naye akafa.
Ahinlah Sisera chu athachol behseh jeh a a-imut mil hel phat chun Jael chun, thih hemkhat akhutna achoijin ama koma chun guhthim chan alut in hichun ponbuh thih hemchu achalpanga akhen lut in toltoh akhen mat jengin ahileh ama athitan ahi.
22 Baraka akakaribia akimfuatia Sisera, Yaeli akatoka kumlaki. Akamwambia, “Njoo, nitakuonyesha mtu unayemtafuta.” Hivyo wakaingia ndani ya hema wakiwa wamefuatana na tazama Sisera alikuwa amelala humo, akiwa amekufa, na hicho kigingi cha hema kikiwa kimegongomewa kupitia paji la uso wake.
Barak chu Sisera hola ahung chun Jael chu apotdoh in akimupin hitin aseiye, “Hungin namihol chu keiman navetsah inge” ati. Hiti chun aman ponbuh sunga chun ajuilut in ahileh, Sisera chu achalpanga ponbuh thih kikhenlutna athisa alupchu agamu in ahi.
23 Basi siku ile Mungu akamshinda Yabini, mfalme wa Kanaani, mbele ya Israeli.
Hiche nikho chun Canaan lengpa Jabin chu Pakaiyin ajopeh tauve ti Israel ten amuchen tauvin ahi.
24 Nao mkono wa Waisraeli ukaendelea kuwa na nguvu zaidi na zaidi dhidi ya Yabini, mfalme wa Kanaani, mpaka wakamwangamiza.
Hiche nikhoa pat chun Israelte chu Jabin lengpa dounan ahung hatdoh un ajonan asumang hel tauvin ahi.
