Књига о судијама 4
1 А по смрти Аодовој опет синови Израиљеви чинише што је зло пред Господом.
And the children of Israel again did evil in the eyes of the Lord when Ehud was dead.
2 И Господ их даде у руке Јавину цару хананском, који владаше у Асору, а војсци његовој беше војвода Сисара, који живљаше у Аросету незнабожачком.
And the Lord gave them up into the hands of Jabin, king of Canaan, who was ruling in Hazor; the captain of his army was Sisera, who was living in Harosheth of the Gentiles.
3 И синови Израиљеви вапише ка Господу; јер он имаше девет стотина гвоздених кола, и веома притешњаваше синове Израиљеве двадесет година.
Then the children of Israel made prayer to the Lord; for he had nine hundred iron war-carriages, and for twenty years he was very cruel to the children of Israel.
4 У то време Девора пророчица, жена Лафидотова, суђаше Израиљу.
Now Deborah, a woman prophet, the wife of Lapidoth, was judge of Israel at that time.
5 И Девора становаше под палмом између Раме и Ветиља у гори Јефремовој, и долажаху к њој синови Израиљеви на суд.
(And she had her seat under the palm-tree of Deborah between Ramah and Beth-el in the hill-country of Ephraim; and the children of Israel came up to her to be judged.)
6 А она пославши дозва Варака сина Авинејемова из Кедеса Нефталимовог, и рече му: Није ли заповедио Господ Бог Израиљев: Иди, скупи народ на гори Тавор, и узми са собом десет хиљада људи између синова Нефталимових и синова Завулонових?
And she sent for Barak, the son of Abinoam, from Kedesh-naphtali, and said to him, Has not the Lord, the God of Israel, given orders saying, Go and get your force into line in Mount Tabor, and take with you ten thousand men of the children of Naphtali and of the children of Zebulun?
7 Јер ћу довести к теби на поток Кисон Сисару војводу Јавиновог и кола његова и људство његово, и предаћу га теби у руке.
And I will make Sisera, the captain of Jabin's army, with his war-carriages and his forces, come against you at the river Kishon, where I will give him into your hands.
8 А Варак јој рече: Ако ћеш ти ићи са мном, ићи ћу; ако ли нећеш ићи са мном, нећу ићи.
And 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 А она рече: Ја ћу ићи с тобом, али нећеш имати славе на путу којим ћеш ићи; јер ће жени у руку дати Господ Сисару. И уставши Девора отиде с Вараком у Кедес.
And she said, I will certainly go with you: though you will get no honour in your undertaking, for the Lord will give Sisera into the hands of a woman. So Deborah got up and went with Barak to Kedesh.
10 И Варак сазвавши синове Завулонове и Нефталимове у Кедес, поведе са собом десет хиљада људи; и Девора иђаше с њим.
Then Barak sent for Zebulun and Naphtali to come to Kedesh; and ten thousand men went up after him, and Deborah went up with him.
11 А Евер Кенејин беше се одвојио од Кенеја, од синова Овава таста Мојсијевог, и беше разапео свој шатор код храстова занајимских, а то је код Кедеса.
Now Heber the Kenite, separating himself from the rest of the Kenites, from the children of Hobab, the brother-in-law of Moses, had put up his tent as far away as the oak-tree in Zaanannim, by Kedesh.
12 И јавише Сисари да је изашао Варак син Авинејемов на гору Тавор.
And word was given to Sisera that Barak, the son of Abinoam, had gone up to Mount Tabor.
13 И Сисара скупи сва кола своја, девет стотина кола гвоздених, и сав народ који беше с њим од Аросета незнабожачкога до потока Кисона.
So Sisera got together all his war-carriages, nine hundred war-carriages of iron, and all the people who were with him, from Harosheth of the Gentiles as far as the river Kishon.
14 Тада рече Девора Вараку: Устани, јер је ово дан, у који ти даде Господ Сисару у руке. Не иде ли Господ пред тобом? И Варак сиђе с горе Тавора, и десет хиљада људи за њим.
Then Deborah said to Barak, Up! for today the Lord has given Sisera into your hands: has not the Lord gone out before you? So Barak went down from Mount Tabor and ten thousand men after him.
15 И Господ смете Сисару и сва кола његова и сву војску оштрим мачем пред Вараком; и Сисара сиђе с кола својих и побеже пешице.
And the Lord sent fear on Sisera and all his war-carriages and all his army before Barak; and Sisera got down from his war-carriage and went in flight on foot.
16 А Варак потера кола и војску до Аросета незнабожачкога; и паде сва војска Сисарина од оштрог мача, не оста ниједан.
But Barak went after the war-carriages and the army as far as Harosheth of the Gentiles; and all Sisera's army was put to the sword; not a man got away.
17 А Сисара утече пешице до шатора Јаиље жене Евера Кенејина; јер беше мир међу Јавином царем асорским и домом Евера Кенејина.
But Sisera went in flight on foot to the tent of Jael, the wife of Heber the Kenite; for there was peace between Jabin, king of Hazor, and the family of Heber the Kenite.
18 И изиђе Јаиља на сусрет Сисари, и рече му: Склони се, господару, склони се код мене; не бој се. И он се склони код ње у шатор, и она га покри покривачем.
And Jael went out to Sisera, and said to him, Come in, my lord, come in to me without fear. So he went into her tent, and she put a cover over him.
19 А он јој рече: Дај ми мало воде да се напијем, јер сам жедан. А она отвори мех млека и напоји га, па га покри.
Then he said to her, Give me now a little water, for I have need of a drink. And opening a skin of milk, she gave him drink, and put the cover over him again.
20 А он јој рече: Стој на вратима од шатора, и ако ко дође и запита те и рече: Има ли ту ко? Реци: Нема.
And he said to her, Take your place at the door of the tent, and if anyone comes and says to you, Is there any man here, say, No.
21 Тада Јаиља жена Еверова узе колац од шатора, и узе маљ у руку, и приступи к њему полако, и сатера му колац кроз слепе очи, те прође у земљу, кад спаваше тврдо уморан, и умре.
Then Jael, Heber's wife, took a tent-pin and a hammer and went up to him quietly, driving the pin into his head, and it went through his head into the earth, for he was in a deep sleep from weariness; and so he came to his end.
22 И гле, Варак тераше Сисару, и Јаиља му изиђе на сусрет, и рече му: Ходи да ти покажем човека ког тражиш. И уђе к њој, и гле Сисара лежаше мртав, и колац му у слепим очима.
Then Jael went out, and meeting Barak going after Sisera, said to him, Come, and I will let you see the man you are searching for. So he came into her tent and saw, and there was Sisera stretched out dead with the tent-pin in his head.
23 Тако покори Бог у онај дан Јавина цара хананског пред синовима Израиљевим.
So that day God overcame Jabin, king of Canaan, before the children of Israel.
24 И рука синова Израиљевих биваше све тежа Јавину цару хананском, докле не истребише Јавина цара хананског.
And the power of the children of Israel went on increasing against Jabin, king of Canaan, till he was cut off.
