< Judges 5 >

1 In that day Debbora and Barac son of Abinoem sung, and said:
Nígbà náà ni Debora àti Baraki ọmọ Abinoamu kọ orin ní ọjọ́ náà wí pé,
2 O you of Israel, that have willingly offered your lives to danger, bless the Lord.
“Nítorí bí àwọn olórí ti síwájú ní Israẹli, nítorí bi àwọn ènìyàn ti fi tọkàntọkàn wa, ẹ fi ìbùkún fún Olúwa!
3 Hear, O ye kings, give ear, ye princes: It is I, it is I, that will sing to the Lord, I will sing to the Lord the God of Israel.
“Ẹ gbọ́ ẹ̀yin ọba! Ẹ fetí yín sílẹ̀ ẹ̀yin ọmọ-aládé! Èmi yóò kọrin sí Olúwa, èmi yóò kọrin ìyìn sí Olúwa: Ọlọ́run Israẹli.
4 O Lord, when thou wentest out of Seir, and passedst by the regions of Edom, the earth trembled, and the heavens dropped water.
“Olúwa nígbà tí o jáde kúrò ní Seiri, nígbà tí ìwọ ń yan jáde wá láti pápá Edomu, ilẹ̀ mì tìtì, àwọn ọ̀run sì kán sílẹ̀, àní àwọsánmọ̀ pẹ̀lú kàn omi sílẹ̀.
5 The mountains melted before the face of the Lord, and Sinai before the face of the Lord the God of Israel.
Àwọn òkè ńlá wárìrì ní iwájú Olúwa, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni Sinai ní iwájú Olúwa Ọlọ́run Israẹli.
6 In the days of Samgar the son of Anath, in the days of Jahel the paths rested: and they that went by them, walked through by-ways.
“Ní ọjọ́ Ṣamgari ọmọ Anati, ní ọjọ́ Jaeli, àwọn ọ̀nà òpópó dá; àwọn arìnrìn-àjò sì ń gba ọ̀nà ìkọ̀kọ̀.
7 The valiant men ceased, and rested in Israel: until Debbora arose, a mother arose in Israel.
Àwọn olórí tán ní Israẹli, wọ́n tán, títí èmi Debora fi dìde bí ìyá ní Israẹli.
8 The Lord chose new wars, and he himself overthrew the gates of the enemies: a shield and spear was not seen among forty thousand of Israel.
Wọ́n ti yan ọlọ́run tuntun, nígbà náà ni ogun wà ní ibodè a ha rí asà tàbí ọ̀kọ̀ kan láàrín ọ̀kẹ́ méjì ní Israẹli bí.
9 My heart loveth the princes of Israel: O you that of your own good will offered yourselves to danger, bless the Lord.
Àyà mi fà sí àwọn aláṣẹ Israẹli àwọn tí wọ́n yọ̀ǹda ara wọn tinútinú láàrín àwọn ènìyàn. Ẹ fi ìbùkún fún Olúwa!
10 Speak, you that ride upon fair asses, and you that sit in judgment, and walk in the way.
“Ẹ kéde rẹ̀: ẹ̀yin tí ń gun kẹ́tẹ́kẹ́tẹ́ funfun, ẹ̀yin tí ń jókòó lórí ẹní dáradára, àti ẹ̀yin tí ó ń rìn ní ọ̀nà. Ní ọ̀nà jíjìn sí
11 Where the chariots were dashed together, and the army of the enemies was choked, there let the justices of the Lord be rehearsed, and his clemency towards the brave men of Israel: then the people of the Lord went down to the gates, and obtained the sovereignty.
ariwo àwọn tafàtafà, ní ibi tí a gbé ń fa omi. Níbẹ̀ ni wọ́n gbé ń sọ ti iṣẹ́ òdodo Olúwa, àní iṣẹ́ òdodo ìjọba rẹ̀ ní Israẹli. “Nígbà náà ni àwọn ènìyàn Olúwa sọ̀kalẹ̀ lọ sí ibodè.
12 Arise, arise, O Debbora, arise, arise, and utter a canticle. Arise, Barac, and take hold of thy captives, O son of Abinoem.
‘Jí, jí, Debora! Jí, jí, kọ orin dìde! Dìde ìwọ Baraki! Kó àwọn ìgbèkùn rẹ ní ìgbèkùn ìwọ ọmọ Abinoamu.’
13 The remnants of the people are saved, the Lord hath fought among the valiant ones.
“Nígbà náà ni àwọn tókù sọ̀kalẹ̀ àwọn ọlọ́lá lọ; àwọn ènìyàn Olúwa tọ̀ mí wá pẹ̀lú àwọn alágbára.
14 Out of Ephraim he destroyed them into Amalec, and after him out of Benjamin into thy people, O Amalec: Out of Machir there came down princes, and out of Zabulon they that led the army to fight.
Àwọn kan jáde wá láti Efraimu, àwọn tí gbòǹgbò wọn wà ní Amaleki; Benjamini wà pẹ̀lú àwọn tí ó tẹ̀lé ọ. Láti Makiri ni àwọn aláṣẹ ti sọ̀kalẹ̀ wá, láti Sebuluni ni àwọn ẹni tí ń mú ọ̀pá oyè lọ́wọ́.
15 The captains of Issachar were with Debbora, and followed the steps of Barac, who exposed himself to danger, as one going headlong, and into a pit. Ruben being divided against himself, there was found a strife of courageous men.
Àwọn ọmọ-aládé Isakari wá pẹ̀lú Debora; bí Isakari ti ṣe olóòtítọ́ sí Baraki, wọ́n fi ẹsẹ̀ súré tẹ̀lé wọn lọ sí àfonífojì náà. Ní ipadò Reubeni ni ìgbèrò púpọ̀ wà.
16 Why dwellest thou between two borders, that thou mayest hear the bleatings of the flocks? Ruben being divided against himself, there was found a strife of courageous men.
Èéṣe tí ìwọ fi dúró pẹ́ láàrín agbo àgùntàn láti máa gbọ́ fèrè olùṣọ́-àgùntàn? Ní ipadò Reubeni ni ìgbèrò púpọ̀ wà.
17 Galaad rested beyond the Jordan, and Dan applied himself to ships: Aser dwelt on the sea shore, and abode in the havens.
Gileadi dúró ní òkè odò Jordani. Èéṣe tí Dani fi dúró nínú ọkọ̀ ojú omi? Aṣeri jókòó ní etí bèbè Òkun, ó sì ń gbé èbúté rẹ̀.
18 But Zabulon and Nephtali offered their lives to death in the region of Merome.
Àwọn ènìyàn Sebuluni fi ẹ̀mí wọn wéwu ikú; bẹ́ẹ̀ sì ni àwọn ènìyàn Naftali ní ibi gíga pápá.
19 The kings came and fought, the kings of Chanaan fought in Thanach by the waters of Mageddo, and yet they took no spoils.
“Àwọn ọba wá, wọ́n sì jà; àwọn ọba Kenaani jà ní Taanaki ní etí odo Megido, ṣùgbọ́n wọn kò sì gba èrè owó.
20 War from heaven was made against them, the stars remaining in their order and courses fought against Sisara.
Àwọn ìràwọ̀ já láti ojú ọ̀run wá láti inú ipa ọ̀nà wọn ni wọ́n bá Sisera jà.
21 The torrent of Cison dragged their carcasses, the torrent of Cadumim, the torrent of Cisoii: tread thou, my soul, upon the strong ones.
Odò Kiṣoni gbá wọn lọ, odò ìgbàanì, odò Kiṣoni. Máa yan lọ, ìwọ ọkàn mi, nínú agbára!
22 The hoofs of the horses were broken whilst the stoutest of the enemies fled amain, and fell headlong down.
Nígbà náà ni pátákò ẹsẹ̀ ẹṣin ki ilẹ̀, nítorí eré sísá, eré sísá àwọn alágbára wọn.
23 Curse ye the land of Meroz, said the angel of the Lord: curse the inhabitants thereof, because they came not to the help of the Lord, to help his most valiant men.
‘Ẹ fi Merosi bú,’ ni angẹli Olúwa wí. ‘Ẹ fi àwọn ènìyàn inú rẹ̀ bú ìbú kíkorò, nítorí wọn kò wá sí ìrànlọ́wọ́ Olúwa, láti dojúkọ àwọn alágbára.’
24 Blessed among women be Jahel the wife of Haber the Cinite, and blessed be she in her tent.
“Ìbùkún ni fún Jaeli, aya Heberi ará Keni ju àwọn obìnrin lọ, ìbùkún ni fún un ju àwọn obìnrin tí ń gbé nínú àgọ́.
25 He asked her water and she gave him milk, and offered him butter in a dish fit for princes.
Ó béèrè omi, ó fún un ní wàrà; ó mú òrí-àmọ́ tọ̀ ọ́ wá nínú àwo iyebíye tí ó yẹ fún àwọn ọlọ́lá.
26 She put her left hand to the nail, and her right hand to the workman’s hammer, and she struck Sisara, seeking in his head a place for the wound, and strongly piercing through his temples.
Ó na ọwọ́ rẹ̀ mú ìṣó àgọ́, ó fi ọwọ́ ọ̀tún rẹ̀ mú òòlù awọ gbẹ́nàgbẹ́nà, òòlù náà ni ó sì fi lu Sisera, ó gbá a mọ́ ọn ní orí, ó sì gun, ó sì kàn ẹ̀bátí rẹ̀ mọ́lẹ̀ ṣinṣin.
27 At her feet he fell: he fainted, and he died: he rolled before her feet, and he lay lifeless and wretched.
Ní ẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀ ó wólẹ̀, ó ṣubú; ó dùbúlẹ̀. Ó wólẹ̀ ní ẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀, ó ṣubú níbi tí ó gbé ń wólẹ̀; níbẹ̀ náà ni ó ṣubú kú sí.
28 His mother looked out at a window, and howled: and she spoke from the dining room: Why is his chariot so long in coming back? Why are the feet of his horses so slow?
“Ìyá Sisera yọjú láti ojú fèrèsé, ó sì kígbe, ó kígbe ní ojú fèrèsé ọlọ́nà pé, ‘Èéṣe tí kẹ̀kẹ́-ẹṣin rẹ fi pẹ́ bẹ́ẹ̀ láti dé? Èéṣe tí ẹsẹ̀ kẹ̀kẹ́-ẹṣin rẹ̀ fi dúró lẹ́yìn?’
29 One that was wiser than the rest of his wives, returned this answer to her mother in law:
Àwọn amòye obìnrin rẹ̀ dá a lóhùn; àní òun náà pẹ̀lú ti dá ara rẹ̀ lóhùn pé,
30 Perhaps he is now dividing the spoils, and the fairest of the women is chosen out for him: garments of divers colours are given to Sisara for his prey, and furniture of different kinds is heaped together to adorn the necks.
‘Wọn kò ha ń wa kiri, wọn kò ha ti pín ìkógun bi: ọmọbìnrin kan tàbí méjì fún ọkùnrin kan, fún Sisera ìkógun aṣọ aláràbarà, ìkógun aṣọ aláràbarà àti ọlọ́nà, àwọn aṣọ ọlọ́nà iyebíye fún ọrùn mi, gbogbo èyí tí a kó ní ogun?’
31 So let all thy enemies perish, O Lord: but let them that love thee shine, as the sun shineth in his rising. And the land rested for forty years.
“Bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kí ó jẹ́ kí gbogbo àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ kí ó ṣègbé Olúwa! Ṣùgbọ́n jẹ́ kí àwọn tí ó fẹ́ ọ ràn bí oòrùn, nígbà tí ó bá yọ nínú agbára rẹ̀.” Ilẹ̀ náà sì sinmi ní ogójì ọdún.
