Mga Hukom 4
1 Matapos mamatay ni Ehud, muling sinuway ng bayan ng Israel si Yahweh sa pamamagitan ng paggawa ng masasamang bagay, at nakita niya kung ano ang ginawa nila.
And the children of Israel again did evil in the sight of the LORD, when Ehud was dead.
2 Ibinigay sila ni Yahweh sa kapangyarihan ni Jabin na hari ng Canaan na naghahari sa Hazor. Ang pinuno ng kaniyang hukbo ay nagngangalang Sisera, at naninirahan siya sa Haroshet ng mga Hentil.
And the LORD sold them into the hand of Jabin king of Canaan, that reigned in Hazor; the captain of whose host was Sisera, which dwelled in Harosheth of the Gentiles.
3 Tumawag ang bayan ng Israel kay Yahweh para sa tulong, dahil mayroong siyamnaraang bakal na karwaheng pandigma si Sisera at inapi niya ang bayan ng Israel sa loob ng dalawampung taon.
And 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 Ngayon si Debora, isang babaeng propeta (asawa ni Lappidot), ay isang nangungunang hukom sa Israel nang panahong iyon.
And Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lapidoth, she judged Israel at that time.
5 Madalas siyang nakaupo sa ilalim ng palmera ni Debora sa pagitan ng Rama at Betel sa bulubundukin ng Efraim, at lumalapit sa kaniya ang mga tao ng Israel para lutasin ang kanilang mga alitan.
And she dwelled under the palm tree of Deborah between Ramah and Bethel in mount Ephraim: and the children of Israel came up to her for judgment.
6 Ipinatawag niya si Barak na anak ni Abinoam mula sa Kedes sa Neftali. Sinabi niya sa kaniya, “Inuutusan ka ni Yahweh, ang Diyos ng Israel, 'Pumunta ka sa Bundok Tabor, at magsama ng sampung libong kalalakihan mula sa Neftali at Zebulun.
And she sent and called Barak the son of Abinoam out of Kedeshnaphtali, and said to him, Has not the LORD God of Israel commanded, saying, Go and draw toward mount Tabor, and take with you ten thousand men of the children of Naphtali and of the children of Zebulun?
7 Palalabasin ko si Sisera, na pinuno ng hukbo ni Jabin, para salubungin kayo sa ilog ng Kison, kasama ang kaniyang mga karwaheng pandigma at kaniyang hukbo, at bibigyan ko kayo ng tagumpay laban sa kaniya.'”
And 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 Sinabi ni Barak sa kaniya, “Kung sasama ka sa akin, pupunta ako, pero kung hindi ka sasama sa akin, hindi ako pupunta.”
And Barak said to her, If you will go with me, then I will go: but if you will not go with me, then I will not go.
9 Sinabi niya, “Talagang sasama ako sa iyo. Gayunman, ang landas na dadaanan mo ay hindi maghahatid sa iyong karangalan, dahil gagawin ni Yahweh na talunin si Sisera ng isang babae sa pamamagitan ng kaniyang lakas.” Pagkatapos tumayo si Debora at sumama kay Barak sa Kedes.
And she said, I will surely go with you: notwithstanding the journey that you take shall not be for your honor; for the LORD shall sell Sisera into the hand of a woman. And Deborah arose, and went with Barak to Kedesh.
10 Tinawag ni Barak ang mga kalalakihan ng Neftali para magtipon sa Kedes. Sampung libong kalalakihan ang sumama sa kaniya, at sumama sa kanya si Debora.
And Barak called Zebulun and Naphtali to Kedesh; and he went up with ten thousand men at his feet: and Deborah went up with him.
11 Ngayon hiniwalay ni Heber (ang Kenita) ang kaniyang sarili mula sa mga Kenita—sila ay mga kaapu-apuhan ni Hobab (biyenan ni Moises) —at nagtayo ng kaniyang tolda sa may kakahuyan ng Zaananim malapit sa Kedes.
Now Heber the Kenite, which was of the children of Hobab the father in law of Moses, had severed himself from the Kenites, and pitched his tent to the plain of Zaanaim, which is by Kedesh.
12 Nang sinabihan nila si Sisera na umakyat si Barak sa Bundok Tabor,
And they showed Sisera that Barak the son of Abinoam was gone up to mount Tabor.
13 tinipon ni Sisera ang kaniyang mga karwaheng pandigma, siyamnaraang bakal na karwaheng pandigma, at lahat ng mga sundalong kasama niya, mula sa Haroset ng mga Hentil patungo sa Ilog Kison.
And Sisera gathered together all his chariots, even nine hundred chariots of iron, and all the people that were with him, from Harosheth of the Gentiles to the river of Kishon.
14 Sinabi ni Debora kay Barak, “Humayo ka! Dahil ito ang araw na ibinigay sa iyo ni Yahweh ang tagumpay laban kay Sisera. Hindi ba pinangungunahan ka ni Yahweh?” Kaya bumaba si Barak mula sa Bundok Tabor na may sampung libong kalalakihang sumusunod sa kaniya.
And Deborah said to Barak, Up; for this is the day in which the LORD has delivered Sisera into your hand: is not the LORD gone out before you? So Barak went down from mount Tabor, and ten thousand men after him.
15 Ginawa ni Yahweh na malito ang hukbo ni Sisera, ang lahat ng kaniyang mga karwaheng pandigma, at lahat ng kaniyang hukbo. Sinalakay sila ng mga tauhan ni Barak at bumaba si Sisera sa kaniyang karwaheng pandigma at tumakbo.
And the LORD discomfited Sisera, and all his chariots, and all his host, with the edge of the sword before Barak; so that Sisera lighted down off his chariot, and fled away on his feet.
16 Pero tinugis ni Barak ang mga karwaheng pandigma at ang hukbo patungo sa Haroset ng mga Hentil, at ang buong hukbo ni Sisera ay namatay sa pamamagitan ng talim ng espada, at wala ni isa mang nakaligtas.
But Barak pursued after the chariots, and after the host, to Harosheth of the Gentiles: and all the host of Sisera fell on the edge of the sword; and there was not a man left.
17 Pero tumakbo palayo si Sisera patungo sa tolda ni Jael, na asawa ni Heber na Kenita, dahil mayroong kapayapaan sa pagitan ni Jabin na hari ng Hazor at ng sambahayan ni Heber na Kenita.
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 Lumabas si Jael para salubungin si Sisera at sinabi sa kaniya, “Lumapit ka, aking panginoon; lumapit ka patungo sa akin at huwag matakot.” Kaya lumapit si Sisera patungo sa kaniya at pumasok sa kaniyang tolda at siya ay tinakpan niya ng isang kumot.
And Jael went out to meet Sisera, and said to him, Turn in, my lord, turn in to me; fear not. And when he had turned in to her into the tent, she covered him with a mantle.
19 Sinabi niya sa kaniya, “Pakiusap bigyan mo ako ng kaunting tubig na maiinom, dahil ako ay nauuhaw.” Binuksan niya ang isang balat na supot ng gatas at binigyan siya ng inumin, at siya'y tinakpan niyang muli.
And he said to her, Give me, I pray you, a little water to drink; for I am thirsty. And she opened a bottle of milk, and gave him drink, and covered him.
20 Sinabi niya sa kaniya, “Tumayo ka sa bungad ng tolda at kung may dumating at magtanong sa iyo, 'May tao ba riyan?' sabihing, 'Wala'.”
Again he said to her, Stand in the door of the tent, and it shall be, when any man does come and inquire of you, and say, Is there any man here? that you shall say, No.
21 Pagkatapos nagdala si Jael (ang asawa ni Heber) ng isang pakong kahoy ng tolda at martilyo sa kaniyang kamay at palihim na pumunta sa kaniya, dahil siya ay nasa mahimbing na pagtulog, at ipinukpok niya ang pakong kahoy sa tagiliran ng kaniyang ulo at ito ay tumusok patagos sa kaniya at bumaba sa lupa. At siya ay namatay.
Then Jael Heber’s wife took a nail of the tent, and took an hammer in her hand, and went softly to him, and smote the nail into his temples, and fastened it into the ground: for he was fast asleep and weary. So he died.
22 Habang hinahabol ni Barak si Sisera, lumabas si Jael para salubungin siya at sinabi sa kaniya, “Halika, ipapakita ko sa iyo ang taong hinahanap mo.” Kaya sumama siya sa kaniya, at naroon nakabulagtang patay si Sisera, na ang pakong kahoy ng tolda ay nasa tagiliran ng kaniyang ulo.
And, behold, 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. And when he came into her tent, behold, Sisera lay dead, and the nail was in his temples.
23 Kaya sa araw na iyon tinalo ng Diyos si Jabin, ang hari ng Canaan, sa harapan ng mga tao ng Israel.
So God subdued on that day Jabin the king of Canaan before the children of Israel.
24 Ang lakas ng mga tao ng Israel ay tumindi nang tumindi laban kay Jabin ang hari ng Canaan, hanggang sa siya ay wasakin nila.
And the hand of the children of Israel prospered, and prevailed against Jabin the king of Canaan, until they had destroyed Jabin king of Canaan.
