< Waamuzi 4 >

1 Baada ya Ehudi kufa, watu wa Israeli walifanya tena yaliyo mabaya machoni pa Bwana.
And they repeated [the] people of Israel to do the evil in [the] eyes of Yahweh and Ehud he had died.
2 Bwana akawatia mkononi mwa Yabini, mfalme wa Kanaani, aliyewala huko Hasori. Kamanda wa jeshi lake aitwaye Sisera, naye aliishi Harosheti ya Mataifa.
And he sold them Yahweh in [the] hand of Jabin [the] king of Canaan who he reigned in Hazor and [was] [the] commander of army his Sisera and he [was] dwelling in Harosheth Haggoyim.
3 Wana wa Israeli wakamwomba Bwana awasaidie, kwa sababu Sisera alikuwa na magari ya chuma mia tisa na akawashinda wana wa Israeli kwa nguvu kwa miaka ishirini.
And they cried out [the] people of Israel to Yahweh for nine hundred chariot[s] of iron [belonged] to him and he he oppressed [the] people of Israel with force twenty year[s].
4 Basi Debora, nabii wa kike (mke wa Lapidothi), alikuwa mwamuzi anayeongoza katika Israeli wakati huo.
And Deborah a woman a prophetess [the] wife of Lappidoth she [was] judging Israel at the time that.
5 Naye aliketi chini ya mtende wa Debora kati ya Rama na Betheli katika nchi ya mlima wa Efraimu, na watu wa Israeli walimwendea ili kutatua migogoro yao.
And she [was] dwelling under [the] palm tree of Deborah between Ramah and between Beth-el in [the] hill country of Ephraim and they went up to her [the] people of Israel for judgment.
6 Akamtuma Baraka mwana wa Abinoamu kutoka Kedeshi huko Naftali. Akamwambia, Bwana, Mungu wa Israeli, anakuamuru, Nenda katika mlima wa Tabori, uende pamoja nawe watu elfu kumi kutoka Naftali na Zabuloni.
And she sent and she summoned Barak [the] son of Abinoam from Kedesh Naphtali and she said to him ¿ not has he commanded - Yahweh [the] God of Israel go and you will march at [the] mountain of Tabor and you will take with you ten thousand man from [the] descendants of Naphtali and of [the] descendants of Zebulun.
7 Nitamfukuza Sisera, jemadari wa jeshi la Yabini, akutane nawe karibu na mto Kishoni, pamoja na magari yake na jeshi lake, na nitakupa ushindi juu yake. '
And I will draw to you to [the] wadi of Kishon Sisera [the] commander of [the] army of Jabin and chariotry his and multitude his and I will give him in hand your.
8 Baraka akamwambia, 'Ikiwa utakwenda nami, nitakwenda, lakini ikiwa huendi pamoja nami, sitaenda.'
And he said to her Barak if you will go with me and I will go and if not you will go with me not I will go.
9 Alisema, 'Nitakwenda nawe. Hata hivyo, njia unayoienda haitakupa heshima wewe, kwa kuwa Bwana atamuuza Sisera mkononi mwa mwanamke. Ndipo Debora akainuka, akaenda pamoja na Baraka Kedeshi.
And she said certainly I will go with you nevertheless for not it will be honor your on the way which you [are] going for in [the] hand of a woman he will sell Yahweh Sisera and she rose Deborah (and she went *L(abh)*) with Barak Kedesh towards.
10 Baraki akawaita wana wa Zebuloni na Naftali kusanyika Kedeshi. Watu elfu kumi walimfuata, na Debora akaenda pamoja naye.
And he summoned Barak Zebulun and Naphtali Kedesh towards and it went up at feet his ten thousand man and she went up with him Deborah.
11 Heberi (Mkeni) alijitenganisha na Wakeni - walikuwa wazao wa Hobabu (mkwe wa Musa) - na akaweka hema yake mwaloni uliopo huko Saanaimu karibu na Kedesh.
And Heber the Kenite [was] separate from [the] Kenite[s] from [the] descendants of Hobab [the] father-in-law of Moses and he had pitched tent his to [the] great tree (in Zaanannim *Q(K)*) which [is] with Kedesh.
12 Walipomwambia Sisera kwamba Baraka, mwana wa Abinoamu, alikuwa amekwenda mlima wa Tabori,
And people told to Sisera that he had gone up Barak [the] son of Abinoam [the] mountain of Tabor.
13 Sisera akawaita magari yake yote, magari ya farasi mia tisa, na askari wote waliokuwa pamoja naye, kutoka Haroshethi ya Mataifa mpaka Mto Kishoni.
And he summoned Sisera all chariotry his nine hundred chariot[s] of iron and all the people which [was] with him from Harosheth Haggoyim to [the] wadi of Kishon.
14 Debora akamwambia Baraka, Nenda! Kwa maana hii ndiyo siku ambayo Bwana amekupa ushindi juu ya Sisera. Je! si Bwana anayekuongoza? Basi Baraka akashuka kutoka mlima wa Tabori na watu kumi elfu wakamfuata.
And she said Deborah to Barak arise for this [is] the day which he has given Yahweh Sisera in hand your ¿ not Yahweh has he gone out before you and he went down Barak from [the] mountain of Tabor and ten thousand man [were] after him.
15 Bwana alifanya jeshi la Sisera kuchanganyikiwa, magari yake yote, na jeshi lake lote. Watu wa Baraka waliwashinda na Sisera akaanguka kutoka kwenye gari lake na kukimbia kwa miguu.
And he routed Yahweh Sisera and all the chariotry and all the army to [the] mouth of [the] sword before Barak and he went down Sisera from on the chariot and he fled on feet his.
16 Lakini Baraka akayafuata magari na jeshi mpaka Haroshethi ya Mataifa, na jeshi lote la Sisera likauawa kwa upanga, wala hakuna mtu aliyeokoka.
And Barak he pursued after the chariotry and after the army to Harosheth Haggoyim and it fell all [the] army of Sisera to [the] mouth of [the] sword not it was left up to one.
17 Lakini Sisera akakimbia kwa miguu mpaka hema ya Yaeli, mkewe Heberi Mkeni; kwa sababu kulikuwa na amani kati ya Yabini mfalme wa Hazori, na nyumba ya Heberi Mkeni.
And Sisera he fled on feet his to [the] tent of Jael ([the] wife of *L(abh)*) Heber the Kenite for peace [was] between Jabin [the] king of Hazor and between [the] house of Heber the Kenite.
18 Jaeli akatoka kumlaki Sisera, akamwambia, karibu, bwana wangu; karibu kwangu, wala usiogope. Basi akakaribia kwake, akaingia hemani kwake, naye akamvika bushuti.
And she went out Jael to meet Sisera and she said to him turn aside! O lord my turn aside! to me may not you be afraid and he turned aside to her the tent towards and she covered him with the covering.
19 Akamwambia, Tafadhali nipe maji kidogo ninywe, kwa maana nina kiu. Alifungua mfuko wa ngozi ya maziwa akampa anywe, kisha akamfunika tena.
And he said to her give to drink me please a little of water for I am thirsty and she opened [the] skin-bottle of milk and she gave a drink him and she covered him.
20 Akamwambia, “Simama mlangoni pa hema. Ikiwa mtu atakuja na kukuuliza, 'Je, kuna mtu hapa?', Sema 'Hapana'.”
And he said to her stand [the] opening of the tent and it will be if anyone he will come and he will ask you and he will say ¿ [is] there here anyone and you will say no.
21 Kisha Jaeli (mke wa Heberi) akachukua kigingi cha hema na nyundo mkononi mwake akamwendea kwa siri, kwa sababu alikuwa amelala usingizi mzito, naye akakitia kigingi cha hema upande wa kichwa chake akamchoma na kikapenya kushuka chini. Hivyo akafa.
And she took Jael [the] wife of Heber [the] peg of the tent and she put the hammer in hand her and she went to him in secrecy and she drove the peg in temple his and it went down in the ground and he [was] sleeping and he was weary and he died.
22 Baraka alipokuwa akimfuata Sisera, Jaeli alitoka kukutana naye akamwambia, “Njoo, nitakuonyesha mtu unayemtafuta.” Basi akaingia pamoja naye, tazama Sisera amekufa, na kigingi cha hema kando ya kichwa chake.
And there! Barak [was] pursuing Sisera and she went out Jael to meet him and she said to him come and I will show you the man whom you [are] seeking and he went to her and there! Sisera [was] lying dead and the peg [was] in temple his.
23 Basi siku hiyo Mungu alimshinda Jabin, mfalme wa Kanaani, mbele ya watu wa Israeli.
And he subdued God on the day that Jabin [the] king of Canaan before [the] people of Israel.
24 Uwezo wa watu wa Israeli ulikua na nguvu zaidi dhidi ya Jabin mfalme wa Kanaani, hata walipomwangamiza.
And it went [the] hand of [the] people of Israel going and hard on Jabin [the] king of Canaan until that they cut off Jabin [the] king of Canaan.
