Judges 4
1 Lẹ́yìn ikú Ehudu, àwọn ènìyàn Israẹli sì tún ṣẹ̀, wọ́n ṣe ohun tí ó burú ní ojú Olúwa.
But after the death of Ehud, the sons of Israel resumed doing evil in the sight of the Lord.
2 Nítorí náà Olúwa jẹ́ kí Jabini, ọba àwọn Kenaani, ẹni tí ó jẹ ọba ní Hasori, ṣẹ́gun wọn. Orúkọ olórí ogun rẹ̀ ni Sisera ẹni tí ń gbé Haroseti-Hagoyimu.
And the Lord delivered them into the hands of Jabin, the king of Canaan, who reigned at Hazor. And he had a commander of his army named Sisera, but this man lived at Harosheth of the Gentiles.
3 Nítorí tí ó ní ẹ̀ẹ́dẹ́gbẹ̀rún kẹ̀kẹ́ ogun irin, ó sì ń pọ́n Israẹli lójú gidigidi fún ogún ọdún, Israẹli ké pe Olúwa fún ìrànlọ́wọ́.
And the sons of Israel cried out to the Lord. For he had nine hundred chariots with scythes, and he vehemently oppressed them for twenty years.
4 Debora, wòlíì obìnrin, aya Lapidoti ni olórí àti aṣíwájú àwọn ará Israẹli ní àsìkò náà.
Now there was a prophetess, Deborah, the wife of Lappidoth, who judged the people in that time.
5 Òun a máa jókòó ṣe ìdájọ́ ní abẹ́ igi ọ̀pẹ tí a sọ orúkọ rẹ̀ ní ọ̀pẹ Debora láàrín Rama àti Beteli ní ilẹ̀ òkè Efraimu, àwọn ará Israẹli a sì máa wá sí ọ̀dọ̀ rẹ̀ láti yanjú èdè-àìyedè tí wọ́n bá ní sí ara wọn, tàbí láti gbọ́ ohùn Olúwa láti ẹnu rẹ̀.
And she was sitting under a palm tree, which was called by her name, between Ramah and Bethel, on Mount Ephraim. And the sons of Israel went up to her for every judgment.
6 Ní ọjọ́ kan, ó ránṣẹ́ pe Baraki ọmọ Abinoamu, ẹni tí ń gbé ní Kedeṣi ní ilẹ̀ Naftali, ó sì wí fún un pé, “Olúwa, Ọlọ́run Israẹli pa á ní àṣẹ fún un pé, ‘Kí ó kó ẹgbẹ̀rún mẹ́wàá àwọn akọni ọkùnrin jọ láti ẹ̀yà Naftali àti ẹ̀yà Sebuluni bí ẹgbẹ́ ogun, kí o sì síwájú wọn lọ sí òkè Tabori.
And she sent and called Barak, the son of Abinoam, from Kedesh of Naphtali. And she said to him: “The Lord, the God of Israel, instructs you: ‘Go and lead an army to Mount Tabor, and you shall take with you ten thousand fighting men from the sons of Naphtali and from the sons of Zebulun.
7 Èmi yóò sì fa Sisera olórí ogun Jabini, pẹ̀lú kẹ̀kẹ́ ogun rẹ àti àwọn ogun rẹ, sí odò Kiṣoni èmi yóò sì fi lé ọ lọ́wọ́ ìwọ yóò sì ṣẹ́gun wọn níbẹ̀.’”
Then I will lead to you, at the place of the torrent Kishon, Sisera, the leader of the army of Jabin, with his chariots and the entire multitude. And I will deliver them into your hand.’”
8 Baraki sì dá a lóhùn pé, “Èmi yóò lọ tí ìwọ ó bá bá mi lọ, ṣùgbọ́n tí ìwọ kì yóò bá bá mi lọ, èmi kì yóò lọ.”
And Barak said to her: “If you will come with me, I will go. If you are not willing to come with me, I will not go.”
9 Debora dá a lóhùn pé, “ó dára, èmi yóò bá ọ lọ. Ṣùgbọ́n ọlá ìṣẹ́gun tí o ń lọ yìí kò ní jẹ́ tìrẹ, nítorí Olúwa yóò fi Sisera lé obìnrin lọ́wọ́,” báyìí Debora bá Baraki lọ sí Kedeṣi.
She said to him: “Indeed, I will go with you. But due to this change, the victory shall not be reputed to you. And so Sisera will be delivered into the hand of a woman.” Therefore, Deborah rose up, and she traveled with Barak to Kedesh.
10 Nígbà tí Baraki pe ẹ̀yà Sebuluni àti ẹ̀yà Naftali sí Kedeṣi ẹgbẹ̀rún mẹ́wàá akíkanjú ọkùnrin ogun tẹ̀lé e, Debora pẹ̀lú bá wọn lọ.
And he, summoning Zebulun and Naphtali, ascended with ten thousand fighting men, having Deborah in his company.
11 Ǹjẹ́ Heberi ọmọ Keni, ti ya ara rẹ́ kúrò lọ́dọ̀ àwọn ọmọ Keni, àní àwọn ọmọ Hobabu, àna Mose, ó sì pa àgọ́ rẹ̀ títí dé ibi igi óákù Saananimu, tí ó wà ni agbègbè Kedeṣi.
Now Heber, the Kenite, had previously withdrawn from the rest of the Kenites, his brothers, the sons of Hobab, the relative of Moses. And he had pitched his tents as far as the valley that is called Zaanannim, which was near Kedesh.
12 Nígbà tí a sọ fún Sisera pé Baraki ọmọ Abinoamu ti kó ogun jọ sí òkè Tabori,
And it was reported to Sisera that Barak, the son of Abinoam, had ascended to Mount Tabor.
13 Sisera kó gbogbo kẹ̀kẹ́ ogun irin rẹ̀ tí ṣe ẹ̀ẹ́dẹ́gbẹ̀rún àti gbogbo àwọn ọmọ-ogun tí ó wà pẹ̀lú rẹ̀, láti Haroseti tí àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè wá sí odò Kiṣoni.
And he gathered together the nine hundred chariots with scythes, and the entire army, from Harosheth of the Gentiles to the torrent Kishon.
14 Debora sì wí fún Baraki pé, “Lọ! Lónìí ni Olúwa fi Sisera lé ọ lọ́wọ́, Olúwa ti lọ síwájú rẹ.” Baraki sì síwájú, àwọn ọmọ-ogun rẹ̀ ẹgbẹ̀rún mẹ́wàá sì tẹ̀lé e lẹ́yìn, wọ́n sì kọjá sí òkè Tabori.
And Deborah said to Barak: “Rise up. For this is the day on which the Lord delivers Sisera into your hands. For he is your commander.” And so, Barak descended from Mount Tabor, and the ten thousand fighting men with him.
15 Olúwa sì mú ìdàrúdàpọ̀ wá sí àárín ogun Sisera, Olúwa sì fi ojú idà ṣẹ́gun Sisera àti àwọn oníkẹ̀kẹ́ ogun àti ọmọ-ogun orí ilẹ̀ ní iwájú Baraki. Sisera sì sọ̀kalẹ̀ lórí kẹ̀kẹ́-ẹṣin rẹ̀ ó sì fi ẹsẹ̀ sálọ.
And the Lord struck Sisera with great fear, and all his chariots and all his multitude with the edge of the sword, in the sight of Barak, so much so that Sisera, leaping from his chariot, fled on foot.
16 Baraki àti àwọn ogun rẹ̀ sì lé àwọn ọ̀tá náà, àwọn ọmọ-ogun orílẹ̀ àti àwọn kẹ̀kẹ́ ogun wọn títí dé Haroseti ti àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè, gbogbo ogun Sisera sì ti ojú idà ṣubú, kò sí ọ̀kan tí ó lè sálà tàbí tí ó wà láààyè.
And Barak pursued the fleeing chariots, and the army, as far as Harosheth of the Gentiles. And the entire multitude of the enemy was cut down, unto utter annihilation.
17 Ṣùgbọ́n Sisera ti fi ẹsẹ̀ sálọ sí àgọ́ Jaeli aya Heberi ẹ̀yà Keni: nítorí ìbá dá ọ̀rẹ́ àlàáfíà wà láàrín Jabini ọba Hasori àti ìdílé Heberi ti ẹ̀yà Keni.
But Sisera, while fleeing, arrived at 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 Jaeli sì jáde síta láti pàdé Sisera, ó sì wí fún un pé, “Wọlé sínú àgọ́ mi, Olúwa mi, wọlé wá má ṣe bẹ̀rù nítorí pé ààbò ń bẹ fún ọ.” Ó sì yà sínú àgọ́ rẹ̀, ó sì fi aṣọ bò ó.
Therefore, Jael went out to meet Sisera, and she said to him: “Enter to me, my lord. Enter, you should not be afraid.” And he entered her tent, and having been covered by her with a cloak,
19 Sisera wí pé, “Òrùngbẹ ń gbẹ́ mí, jọ̀wọ́ fún mi ní omi mu.” Ó sì ṣí awọ wàrà kan, ó sì fún un mu ó sì tún daṣọ bò ó padà.
he said to her: “Give me, I beg you, a little water. For I am very thirsty.” And she opened a bottle of milk, and she gave him to drink. And she covered him.
20 Sisera sọ fún Jaeli pé, “Kí ó dúró ní ẹnu-ọ̀nà àgọ́, àti pé bí ẹnikẹ́ni bá béèrè bóyá òun wà níbẹ̀ kí ó sọ pé, ‘Kò sí ẹnìkankan ní ibẹ̀.’”
And Sisera said to her: “Stand before the door of the tent. And if anyone arrives, questioning you and saying, ‘Could there be any man here?’ you shall respond, ‘There is no one.’”
21 Ṣùgbọ́n Jaeli ìyàwó Heberi mú ìṣó àgọ́ tí ó mú àti òòlù ní ọwọ́ rẹ̀, ó sì yọ́ wọ inú ibi tí ó sùn, nígbà tí ó ti sùn fọnfọn, nígbà náà ni ó kan ìṣó náà mọ́ òkè ìpéǹpéjú rẹ̀, ó sì wọlé ṣinṣin, ó sì kú.
And so Jael, the wife of Heber, took a spike from the tent, and also took a mallet. And entering unseen and with silence, she placed the spike over the temple of his head. And striking it with the mallet, she drove it through his brain, as far as the ground. And so, joining deep sleep to death, he fell unconscious and died.
22 Nígbà tí Baraki dé bí ó ti ń lépa Sisera, Jaeli láti pàdé rẹ̀, wá, èmi yóò fi ẹni tí ìwọ ń wá hàn ọ́, báyìí ni ó tẹ̀lé e wọ inú àgọ́ lọ, kíyèsi Sisera dùbúlẹ̀ síbẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ìṣó àgọ́ ní agbárí rẹ̀ tí a ti kàn mọ́lẹ̀ ṣinṣin tí ó sì ti kú.
And behold, Barak arrived, in pursuit of Sisera. And Jael, going out to meet him, said to him, “Come, and I will show you the man whom you are seeking.” And when he had entered her tent, he saw Sisera lying dead, with the spike fixed in his temples.
23 Ní ọjọ́ náà ni Ọlọ́run ṣẹ́gun Jabini ọba àwọn ará Kenaani ní iwájú àwọn ẹ̀yà Israẹli.
Thus did God humble Jabin, the king of Canaan, on that day, before the sons of Israel.
24 Ọwọ́ àwọn ọmọ Israẹli sì le, ó sì ń lágbára síwájú àti síwájú sí i lára Jabini ọba Kenaani, títí wọ́n fi run òun àti àwọn ènìyàn rẹ̀.
And they increased every day. And with a strong hand they overpowered Jabin, the king of Canaan, until they wiped him out.
