< اَلْقُضَاة 5 >

فَتَرَنَّمَتْ دَبُورَةُ وَبَارَاقُ بْنُ أَبِينُوعَمَ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ قَائِلَيْنِ: ١ 1
Then Deborah and Barak the son of Abinoam sang on that day, saying,
«لِأَجْلِ قِيَادَةِ ٱلْقُوَّادِ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، لِأَجْلِ ٱنْتِدَابِ ٱلشَّعْبِ، بَارِكُوا ٱلرَّبَّ. ٢ 2
“Because the leaders took the lead in Israel, because the people offered themselves willingly, be blessed, LORD!
اِسْمَعُوا أَيُّهَا ٱلْمُلُوكُ وَٱصْغَوْا أَيُّهَا ٱلْعُظَمَاءُ. أَنَا، أَنَا لِلرَّبِّ أَتَرَنَّمُ. أُزَمِّرُ لِلرَّبِّ إِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. ٣ 3
“Hear, you kings! Give ear, you princes! I, even I, will sing to the LORD. I will sing praise to the LORD, the God of Israel.
يَارَبُّ بِخُرُوجِكَ مِنْ سِعِيرَ، بِصُعُودِكَ مِنْ صَحْرَاءِ أَدُومَ، ٱلْأَرْضُ ٱرْتَعَدَتِ. ٱلسَّمَاوَاتُ أَيْضًا قَطَرَتْ. كَذَلِكَ ٱلسُّحُبُ قَطَرَتْ مَاءً. ٤ 4
“LORD, when you went out of Seir, when you marched out of the field of Edom, the earth trembled, the sky also dropped. Yes, the clouds dropped water.
تَزَلْزَلَتِ ٱلْجِبَالُ مِنْ وَجْهِ ٱلرَّبِّ، وَسِينَاءُ هَذَا مِنْ وَجْهِ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَهِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. ٥ 5
The mountains quaked at the LORD’s presence, even Sinai at the presence of the LORD, the God of Israel.
«فِي أَيَّامِ شَمْجَرَ بْنِ عَنَاةَ، فِي أَيَّامِ يَاعِيلَ، ٱسْتَرَاحَتِ ٱلطُّرُقُ، وَعَابِرُو ٱلسُّبُلِ سَارُوا فِي مَسَالِكَ مُعْوَجَّةٍ. ٦ 6
“In the days of Shamgar the son of Anath, in the days of Jael, the highways were unoccupied. The travellers walked through byways.
خُذِلَ ٱلْحُكَّامُ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. خُذِلُوا حَتَّى قُمْتُ أَنَا دَبُورَةُ. قُمْتُ أُمًّا فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. ٧ 7
The rulers ceased in Israel. They ceased until I, Deborah, arose; Until I arose a mother in Israel.
اِخْتَارَ آلِهَةً حَدِيثَةً. حِينَئِذٍ حَرْبُ ٱلْأَبْوَابِ. هَلْ كَانَ يُرَى مِجَنٌّ أَوْ رُمْحٌ فِي أَرْبَعِينَ أَلْفًا مِنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ؟ ٨ 8
They chose new gods. Then war was in the gates. Was there a shield or spear seen amongst forty thousand in Israel?
قَلْبِي نَحْوَ قُضَاةِ إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلْمُنْتَدِبِينَ فِي ٱلشَّعْبِ. بَارِكُوا ٱلرَّبَّ. ٩ 9
My heart is towards the governors of Israel, who offered themselves willingly amongst the people. Bless the LORD!
أَيُّهَا ٱلرَّاكِبُونَ ٱلْأُتُنَ ٱلصُّحْرَ، ٱلْجَالِسُونَ عَلَى طَنَافِسَ، وَٱلسَّالِكُونَ فِي ٱلطَّرِيقِ، سَبِّحُوا! ١٠ 10
“Speak, you who ride on white donkeys, you who sit on rich carpets, and you who walk by the way.
مِنْ صَوْتِ ٱلْمُحَاصِّينَ بَيْنَ ٱلْأَحْوَاضِ هُنَاكَ يُثْنُونَ عَلَى حَقِّ ٱلرَّبِّ، حَقِّ حُكَّامِهِ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. حِينَئِذٍ نَزَلَ شَعْبُ ٱلرَّبِّ إِلَى ٱلْأَبْوَابِ. ١١ 11
Far from the noise of archers, in the places of drawing water, there they will rehearse the LORD’s righteous acts, the righteous acts of his rule in Israel. “Then the LORD’s people went down to the gates.
«اِسْتَيْقِظِي، ٱسْتَيْقِظِي يَا دَبُورَةُ! ٱسْتَيْقِظِي، ٱسْتَيْقِظِي وَتَكَلَّمِي بِنَشِيدٍ! قُمْ يَا بَارَاقُ وَٱسْبِ سَبْيَكَ، يَا ٱبْنَ أَبِينُوعَمَ! ١٢ 12
‘Awake, awake, Deborah! Awake, awake, utter a song! Arise, Barak, and lead away your captives, you son of Abinoam.’
حِينَئِذٍ تَسَلَّطَ ٱلشَّارِدُ عَلَى عُظَمَاءِ ٱلشَّعْبِ. ٱلرَّبُّ سَلَّطَنِي عَلَى ٱلْجَبَابِرَةِ. ١٣ 13
“Then a remnant of the nobles and the people came down. The LORD came down for me against the mighty.
جَاءَ مِنْ أَفْرَايِمَ ٱلَّذِينَ مَقَرُّهُمْ بَيْنَ عَمَالِيقَ، وَبَعْدَكَ بَنْيَامِينُ مَعَ قَوْمِكَ. مِنْ مَاكِيرَ نَزَلَ قُضَاةٌ، وَمِنْ زَبُولُونَ مَاسِكُونَ بِقَضِيبِ ٱلْقَائِدِ. ١٤ 14
Those whose root is in Amalek came out of Ephraim, after you, Benjamin, amongst your peoples. Governors come down out of Machir. Those who handle the marshal’s staff came out of Zebulun.
وَٱلرُّؤَسَاءُ فِي يَسَّاكَرَ مَعَ دَبُورَةَ. وَكَمَا يَسَّاكَرُ هَكَذَا بَارَاقُ. اِنْدَفَعَ إِلَى ٱلْوَادِي وَرَاءَهُ. عَلَى مَسَاقِي رَأُوبَيْنَ أَقْضِيَةُ قَلْبٍ عَظِيمَةٌ. ١٥ 15
The princes of Issachar were with Deborah. As was Issachar, so was Barak. They rushed into the valley at his feet. By the watercourses of Reuben, there were great resolves of heart.
لِمَاذَا أَقَمْتَ بَيْنَ ٱلْحَظَائِرِ لِسَمْعِ ٱلصَّفِيرِ لِلْقُطْعَانِ. لَدَى مَسَاقِي رَأُوبَيْنَ مَبَاحِثُ قَلْبٍ عَظِيمَةٌ. ١٦ 16
Why did you sit amongst the sheepfolds? To hear the whistling for the flocks? At the watercourses of Reuben, there were great searchings of heart.
جِلْعَادُ فِي عَبْرِ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ سَكَنَ. وَدَانُ، لِمَاذَا ٱسْتَوْطَنَ لَدَى ٱلسُّفُنِ؟ وَأَشِيرُ أَقَامَ عَلَى سَاحِلِ ٱلْبَحْرِ، وَفِي فُرَضِهِ سَكَنَ. ١٧ 17
Gilead lived beyond the Jordan. Why did Dan remain in ships? Asher sat still at the haven of the sea, and lived by his creeks.
زَبُولُونُ شَعْبٌ أَهَانَ نَفْسَهُ إِلَى ٱلْمَوْتِ مَعَ نَفْتَالِي عَلَى رَوَابِي ٱلْحَقْلِ. ١٨ 18
Zebulun was a people that jeopardised their lives to the death; Naphtali also, on the high places of the field.
«جَاءَ مُلُوكٌ. حَارَبُوا. حِينَئِذٍ حَارَبَ مُلُوكُ كَنْعَانَ فِي تَعْنَكَ عَلَى مِيَاهِ مَجِدُّو. بِضْعَ فِضَّةٍ لَمْ يَأْخُذُوا. ١٩ 19
“The kings came and fought, then the kings of Canaan fought at Taanach by the waters of Megiddo. They took no plunder of silver.
مِنَ ٱلسَّمَاوَاتِ حَارَبُوا. ٱلْكَوَاكِبُ مِنْ حُبُكِهَا حَارَبَتْ سِيسَرَا. ٢٠ 20
From the sky the stars fought. From their courses, they fought against Sisera.
نَهْرُ قِيشُونَ جَرَفَهُمْ. نَهْرُ وَقَائِعَ نَهْرُ قِيشُونَ. دُوسِي يَا نَفْسِي بِعِزٍّ. ٢١ 21
The river Kishon swept them away, that ancient river, the river Kishon. My soul, march on with strength.
«حِينَئِذٍ ضَرَبَتْ أَعْقَابُ ٱلْخَيْلِ مِنَ ٱلسَّوْقِ، سَوْقِ أَقْوِيَائِهِ. ٢٢ 22
Then the horse hoofs stamped because of the prancing, the prancing of their strong ones.
اِلْعَنُوا مِيرُوزَ قَالَ مَلَاكُ ٱلرَّبِّ. اِلْعَنُوا سَاكِنِيهَا لَعْنًا، لِأَنَّهُمْ لَمْ يَأْتُوا لِمَعُونَةِ ٱلرَّبِّ، مَعُونَةِ ٱلرَّبِّ بَيْنَ ٱلْجَبَابِرَةِ. ٢٣ 23
‘Curse Meroz,’ said the LORD’s angel. ‘Curse bitterly its inhabitants, because they didn’t come to help the LORD, to help the LORD against the mighty.’
تُبَارَكُ عَلَى ٱلنِّسَاءِ يَاعِيلُ ٱمْرَأَةُ حَابِرَ ٱلْقَيْنِيِّ. عَلَى ٱلنِّسَاءِ فِي ٱلْخِيَامِ تُبَارَكُ. ٢٤ 24
“Jael shall be blessed above women, the wife of Heber the Kenite; blessed shall she be above women in the tent.
طَلَبَ مَاءً فَأَعْطَتْهُ لَبَنًا. فِي قَصْعَةِ ٱلْعُظَمَاءِ قَدَّمَتْ زُبْدَةً. ٢٥ 25
He asked for water. She gave him milk. She brought him butter in a lordly dish.
مَدَّتْ يَدَهَا إِلَى ٱلْوَتَدِ، وَيَمِينَهَا إِلَى مِضْرَابِ ٱلْعَمَلَةِ، وَضَرَبَتْ سِيسَرَا وَسَحَقَتْ رَأْسَهُ، شَدَّخَتْ وَخَرَّقَتْ صُدْغَهُ. ٢٦ 26
She put her hand to the tent peg, and her right hand to the workmen’s hammer. With the hammer she struck Sisera. She struck through his head. Yes, she pierced and struck through his temples.
بَيْنَ رِجْلَيْهَا ٱنْطَرَحَ، سَقَطَ، ٱضْطَجَعَ. بَيْنَ رِجْلَيْهَا ٱنْطَرَحَ، سَقَطَ. حَيْثُ ٱنْطَرَحَ فَهُنَاكَ سَقَطَ مَقْتُولًا. ٢٧ 27
At her feet he bowed, he fell, he lay. At her feet he bowed, he fell. Where he bowed, there he fell down dead.
مِنَ ٱلْكُوَّةِ أَشْرَفَتْ وَوَلْوَلَتْ أُمُّ سِيسَرَا مِنَ ٱلشُّبَّاكِ: لِمَاذَا أَبْطَأَتْ مَرْكَبَاتُهُ عَنِ ٱلْمَجِيءِ؟ لِمَاذَا تَأَخَّرَتْ خَطَوَاتُ مَرَاكِبِهِ؟ ٢٨ 28
“Through the window she looked out, and cried: Sisera’s mother looked through the lattice. ‘Why is his chariot so long in coming? Why do the wheels of his chariots wait?’
فَأَجَابَتْهَا أَحْكَمُ سَيِّدَاتِهَا، بَلْ هِيَ رَدَّتْ جَوَابًا لِنَفْسِهَا: ٢٩ 29
Her wise ladies answered her, Yes, she returned answer to herself,
أَلَمْ يَجِدُوا وَيَقْسِمُوا ٱلْغَنِيمَةَ! فَتَاةً أَوْ فَتَاتَيْنِ لِكُلِّ رَجُلٍ! غَنِيمَةَ ثِيَابٍ مَصْبُوغَةٍ لِسِيسَرَا! غَنِيمَةَ ثِيَابٍ مَصْبُوغَةٍ مُطَرَّزَةٍ! ثِيَابٍ مَصْبُوغَةٍ مُطَرَّزَةِ ٱلْوَجْهَيْنِ غَنِيمَةً لِعُنُقِي! ٣٠ 30
‘Have they not found, have they not divided the plunder? A lady, two ladies to every man; to Sisera a plunder of dyed garments, a plunder of dyed garments embroidered, of dyed garments embroidered on both sides, on the necks of the plunder?’
هَكَذَا يَبِيدُ جَمِيعُ أَعْدَائِكَ يَارَبُّ. وَأَحِبَّاؤُهُ كَخُرُوجِ ٱلشَّمْسِ فِي جَبَرُوتِهَا». وَٱسْتَرَاحَتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ أَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً. ٣١ 31
“So let all your enemies perish, LORD, but let those who love him be as the sun when it rises in its strength.” Then the land had rest forty years.
