< Mwet Nununku 4 >

1 Tukun Ehud el misa, mwet Israel elos sifilpa orekma koluk ye mutun LEUM GOD.
The children of Israel again did that which was evil in the LORD’s sight, when Ehud was dead.
2 Ke ma inge, LEUM GOD El eisalosyang nu inpaol Jabin, sie tokosra lun mwet Canaan su leumi siti Hazor. Mwet se ma kol mwet mweun lal an pa Sisera, su muta in acn se pangpang Harosheth-lun-mwet-Gentile.
The LORD sold them into the hand of Jabin king of Canaan, who reigned in Hazor; the captain of whose army was Sisera, who lived in Harosheth of the Gentiles.
3 Oasr chariot osra eufoko natul Jabin, ac el leumi mwet Israel ac akkeokyalos ke lusen yac longoul. Na mwet Israel elos wowoyak nu sin LEUM GOD ac siyuk kasru sel.
The children of Israel cried to the LORD, for he had nine hundred chariots of iron; and he mightily oppressed the children of Israel for twenty years.
4 In pacl sac Deborah, mutan kial Lappidoth, sie mutan palu, el oayapa mwet nununku se lun mwet Israel.
Now Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lappidoth, judged Israel at that time.
5 El ac muta ye sak palm soko, pangpang Palm lal Deborah, inmasrlon Ramah ac Bethel fineol uh in facl Ephraim, ac mwet Israel elos ac tuku nu yorol tuh elan oru nununku lal kaclos.
She lived under Deborah’s palm tree between Ramah and Bethel in the hill country of Ephraim; and the children of Israel came up to her for judgment.
6 Sie len ah el sapla nu sel Barak, wen natul Abinoam, nu in siti Kedesh in Naphtali ac fahk nu sel, “LEUM GOD lun Israel el sapkin nu sum ac fahk ouinge, ‘Eis singoul tausin mwet sin sruf lal Naphtali ac sruf lal Zebulun, ac kololos nu Fineol Tabor.
She sent and called Barak the son of Abinoam out of Kedesh Naphtali, and said to him, “Hasn’t the LORD, the God of Israel, commanded, ‘Go and lead the way to Mount Tabor, and take with you ten thousand men of the children of Naphtali and of the children of Zebulun?
7 Nga ac fah usalu Sisera, captain lun mwet mweun lal Jabin, in mweuni kom ke Infacl Kishon. El ac us chariot ac mwet mweun lal an, tusruktu nga fah asot kutangla nu sum.”’
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 Na Barak el topuk ac fahk, “Nga ac som kom fin wiyu, tuh kom fin tia wiyu, nga ac fah tia som.”
Barak said to her, “If you will go with me, then I will go; but if you will not go with me, I will not go.”
9 Ac Deborah el fahk nu sel Barak, “Aok, nga ac wi kom, tusruktu kom ac fah tia akfulatyeyuk ke kutangla se inge, mweyen LEUM GOD El ac eisalang Sisera nu inpoun sie mutan.” Na Deborah el welul Barak ac som nu Kedesh.
She said, “I will surely go with you. Nevertheless, the journey that you take won’t be for your honor; for the LORD will sell Sisera into a woman’s hand.” Deborah arose, and went with Barak to Kedesh.
10 Barak el pangonma mwet in sruf lal Naphtali ac sruf lal Zebulun nu Kedesh, ac oasr tausin singoul mwet welul. Ac Deborah el welul som.
Barak called Zebulun and Naphtali together to Kedesh. Ten thousand men followed him; and Deborah went up with him.
11 In pacl se inge Heber mwet Ken el tulokunak lohm nuknuk sel apkuran nu Kedesh, fototo nu ke sak oak soko in acn Zanannim. El tuh srengla liki mwet Ken wial ah, su fwil natul Hobab, sou lun mutan kial Moses.
Now Heber the Kenite had separated himself from the Kenites, even from the children of Hobab, Moses’ brother-in-law, and had pitched his tent as far as the oak in Zaanannim, which is by Kedesh.
12 Ke Sisera el lohng mu Barak el fahsryak nu Fineol Tabor,
They told Sisera that Barak the son of Abinoam had gone up to Mount Tabor.
13 el pangoneni chariot osra eufoko ac mwet lal nukewa, ac supwalosla liki acn Harosheth-lun-mwet-Gentile nu Infacl Kishon.
Sisera gathered together all his chariots, even nine hundred chariots of iron, and all the people who were with him, from Harosheth of the Gentiles, to the river Kishon.
14 Na Deborah el fahk nu sel Barak, “Fahsrot tuh LEUM GOD El kol kom. Misenge El asot kutangla nu sum facl Sisera.” Na Barak el tufoki Fineol Tabor me wi tausin singoul mwet mweun lal.
Deborah said to Barak, “Go; for this is the day in which the LORD has delivered Sisera into your hand. Hasn’t the LORD gone out before you?” So Barak went down from Mount Tabor, and ten thousand men after him.
15 Ke Barak ac mwet mweun lal elos mweun, LEUM GOD El arulana akfohsyalak Sisera ac mwet mweun lal wi chariot natulos. Na Sisera el srola liki chariot natul ac kasrusr kaing.
The LORD confused Sisera, all his chariots, and all his army, with the edge of the sword before Barak. Sisera abandoned his chariot and fled away on his feet.
16 Barak el ukwe chariot inge ac mwet mweun inge nwe ke na sun acn Harosheth-lun-mwet-Gentile, ac mwet lal Sisera nukewa anwuki ac wangin sie lula.
But Barak pursued the chariots and the army to Harosheth of the Gentiles; and all the army of Sisera fell by the edge of the sword. There was not a man left.
17 Sisera el kaing nwe sun lohm nuknuk sel Jael, mutan kial Heber mwet Ken, mweyen oasr aetui inmasrlol Tokosra Jabin ac sou lal Heber.
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 Jael el illa in sonol Sisera ac el fahk nu sel, “Utyak, leum se. Utyak nu in lohm nuknuk sik, ac nimet sangeng.” Na Sisera el utyak, ac Jael el okanulla ye nuknuk se.
Jael went out to meet Sisera, and said to him, “Turn in, my lord, turn in to me; don’t be afraid.” He came in to her into the tent, and she covered him with a rug.
19 Sisera el fahk nu sel Jael, “Nga malu. Nunak munas ase kutu kof an nimuk.” Jael el ikasla sie pak orekla ke kulun kosro mwe neinyuk milk, ac sang Sisera el nimya, na el sifil okanulla.
He said to her, “Please give me a little water to drink; for I am thirsty.” She opened a container of milk, and gave him a drink, and covered him.
20 Ac Sisera el fahk nu sel Jael, “Tu na mutunoa an. Fin oasr mwet tuku ac siyuk lah oasr mwet inge, kom fah fahk mu wangin.”
He said to her, “Stand in the door of the tent, and if any man comes and inquires of you, and says, ‘Is there any man here?’ you shall say, ‘No.’”
21 Sisera el arulana totola, oru el topla na motulla. Jael el eis sie hammer ac soko kwi ma sang sruok lohm nuknuk ah, na el mahsrikyak nu yorol. El sang kwi soko ah patikya ke la sifal Sisera nwe ke sasla ke layen saya ke sifal nu infohk uh. Na el misa.
Then Jael, Heber’s wife, took a tent peg, and took a hammer in her hand, and went softly to him, and struck the pin into his temples, and it pierced through into the ground, for he was in a deep sleep; so he fainted and died.
22 Ke Barak el tuku in sokol Sisera, Jael el tufoki in sonol ac fahk nu sel, “Fahsru, nga ac fahkak mwet se su kom suk an.” Na Barak el welul utyak, ac liyal Sisera ke el misa oan infohk uh, ac kwi soko ah sasla ke sifal.
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.” He came to her; and behold, Sisera lay dead, and the tent peg was in his temples.
23 In len sac, God El sang kutangla nu sin Israel facl Jabin, tokosra lun mwet Canaan.
So God subdued Jabin the king of Canaan before the children of Israel on that day.
24 Mwet Israel elos kui ac arulana liksreni lainul Jabin, tokosra lun mwet Canaan, nwe ke na elos kunausulla.
The hand of the children of Israel prevailed more and more against Jabin the king of Canaan, until they had destroyed Jabin king of Canaan.
