< Waamuzi 4 >
1 Baada ya Ehudi kufa, Waisraeli wakafanya tena maovu machoni pa Bwana.
And the sones of Israel addiden to do yuel in the `siyt of the Lord, aftir the deeth of Aioth.
2 Hivyo Bwana akawatia mikononi mwa Yabini, mfalme wa Kanaani, aliyetawala huko Hazori. Jemadari wa jeshi lake alikuwa Sisera, aliyeishi huko Haroshethi-Hagoyimu
And the Lord bitook hem in to the hondis of Jabyn, kyng of Canaan, that regnede in Asor; and he hadde a duyk of his oost, Sisara bi name; and he dwellide in Aroseth of hethene men.
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.
And the sones of Israel crieden to the Lord; for he hadde nyn hundrid yrone charis, keruynge as sithis, and twenti yeer he oppresside hem greetli.
4 Debora, nabii mwanamke, mkewe Lapidothi, ndiye alikuwa anaamua Israeli wakati ule.
Forsothe Delbora was a prophetesse, the wijf of Lapidoth, which Delbora demyde the puple in that tyme;
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.
and sche sat vndur a palm tree, that was clepid bi her name, bitwixe Rama and Bethel, in the hil of Effraym; and the sones of Israel stieden to hir at ech dom.
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.
And sche sente, and clepide Barach, the sone of Abynoen, of Cedes of Neptalym, and sche seide to hym, The Lord God of Israel comaundide to thee, Go thou, and lede an oost in to the hil of Thabor, and thou schalt take with thee ten thousande `of fiyteris of the sones of Neptalym and of the sones of Zabulon.
7 Nitamshawishi Sisera, jemadari wa jeshi la Yabini, pamoja na magari yake na jeshi lake, hadi Mto Kishoni na kumtia mikononi mwako.’”
Sotheli Y schal brynge to thee, in the place of the stronde of Cison, Sisara, prince of `the oost of Jabyn, and his charis, and al the multitude; and Y schal bitake hem in thin hond.
8 Baraka akamwambia, “Ukienda pamoja nami nitakwenda, lakini usipokwenda pamoja nami, sitakwenda.”
And Barach seide to hir, If thou comest with me, Y schal go; if thou nylt come with me, Y schal not go.
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,
And sche seyde to hym, Sotheli Y schal go with thee; but in this tyme the victorie schal not be arettide to thee; for Sisara schal be bitakun in the hond of a womman. Therfor Delbora roos, and yede with Barach in to Cedes.
10 mahali ambapo Baraka aliwaita Zabuloni na Naftali. Watu 10,000 wakamfuata Baraka, na Debora pia akaenda pamoja naye.
And whanne Zabulon and Neptalym weren clepid, he stiede with ten thousynde of fiyteris, and hadde Delbora in his felouschipe.
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.
Forsothe Aber of Cyneth hadde departid sum tyme fro othere Cyneys hise britheren, sones of Obab, `alie of Moises; and he hadde set forth tabernaclis `til to the valei, which is clepid Sennym, and was bisidis Cedes.
12 Sisera alipoambiwa kuwa Baraka mwana wa Abinoamu alikuwa amepanda Mlima Tabori,
And it was teld to Sisara, that Barach, sone of Abynoen, hadde stiede in to the hil of Thabor.
13 Sisera akakusanya pamoja magari yake yote 600 ya chuma na watu wote waliokuwa pamoja naye, kuanzia Haroshethi-Hagoyimu mpaka Mto wa Kishoni.
And he gaderide nyn hundrid yronne charis, keruynge as sithis, and al the oost fro Aroseth of hethene men to the stronde of Cison.
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.
And Delbora seide to Barach, Rise thou, for this is the day, in which the Lord bitook Sisara in to thin hondis; lo! the Lord is thi ledere. And so Barach cam doun fro the hil of Thabor, and ten thousynde of fyyteris with hym.
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.
And the Lord made aferd Sisara, and alle `the charis of hym, and al the multitude, bi the scharpnesse of swerd, at the siyt of Barach, in so myche that Sisara lippide doun of the chare, and fledde `a foote.
16 Lakini Baraka akafuata magari pamoja na jeshi mpaka Haroshethi-Hagoyimu. Jeshi lote la Sisera likaanguka kwa upanga, wala hakuna hata mtu mmoja aliyesalia.
And Barach pursuede the charis fleynge and the oost `til to Aroseth of hethene men; and al the multitude of enemyes felde doun `til to deeth.
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.
Sotheli Sisara fledde, and cam to the tente of Jahel, the wijf of Aber Cyney; forsothe pees waas bitwixe Jabyn, kyng of Asor, and bitwixe the hows of Aber Cyney.
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.
Therfor Jahel yede out in to the comyng of Sisara, and seide to hym, My lord, entre thou to me, entre thou to me; drede thou not. And he entride in to `the tabernacle of hir, and was hilid of hir with a mentil.
19 Akamwambia, “Nina kiu, tafadhali nipe maji ya kunywa.” Ndipo akafungua kiriba cha maziwa na kumpa akanywa, kisha akamfunika.
And he seide to hir, Y biseche, yyue `thou to me a litil of watir, for Y thirste greetli. And sche openyde a `botel of mylk, and yaf to hym to drynke, and hilide hym.
20 Naye Sisera akamwambia, “Simama mlangoni pa hema na mtu yeyote akija na kukuuliza, ‘Je, kuna mtu yeyote hapa?’ sema, ‘Hapana.’”
And Sisara seide to hir, Stonde thou bifor the dore of the tabernacle, and whanne ony man cometh, and axith thee, and seith, Whether ony man is here? thou schalt answere, No man is here.
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.
And so Jahel, the wijf of Aber, took a nayl of the tabernacle, and sche took also an hamer; and sche entride pryueli, and puttide with silence the nail on the temple of his heed, and sche fastnede the nail smytun with the hamer in to the brayn, `til to the erthe; and he slepte, and diede to gidere, and failide, and was deed.
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.
And lo! Barach suede Sisara, `and cam; and Jahel yede out in to his comyng, and seide to hym, Come, and Y schal schewe to thee the man, whom thou sekist. And whanne he hadde entrid to hir, he siy Sisara liggynge deed, and a nail fastnede in to hise templis.
23 Basi siku ile Mungu akamshinda Yabini, mfalme wa Kanaani, mbele ya Israeli.
Therfor in that day God `made low Jabyn, the kyng of Canaan, bifor the sones of Israel;
24 Nao mkono wa Waisraeli ukaendelea kuwa na nguvu zaidi na zaidi dhidi ya Yabini, mfalme wa Kanaani, mpaka wakamwangamiza.
whiche encresiden ech dai, and with strong hond oppressiden Jabyn, the kyng of Canaan, til thei diden hym awey.
