Judges 5
1 Then sang Deborah and Barak the son of Abinoam on that day, saying,
To na niah Deborah hoi Abinoam capa Barak mah hae laa hae a sak hoi.
2 Praise ye the LORD for the avenging of Israel, when the people willingly offered themselves.
Israel siangpahrangnawk mah lu lak o moe, kaminawk mah angmacae koehah hmuenmae to paek o pongah, Angraeng to saphaw oh.
3 Hear, O ye kings; give ear, O ye princes; I, [even] I, will sing unto the LORD; I will sing [praise] to the LORD God of Israel.
Aw nangcae siangpahrangnawk, tahngai oh; Aw nangcae ukkung angraengnawk, naa patueng oh; Angraeng khaeah laa ka sak han; Israel Angraeng Sithaw khaeah, saphawhaih laa to ka sak han.
4 LORD, when thou wentest out of Seir, when thou marchedst out of the field of Edom, the earth trembled, and the heavens dropped, the clouds also dropped water.
Aw Angraeng, Seir mae hoi na caeh moe, Edom prae hoiah na caeh naah, long to anghuen moe, van hoiah kho angzoh; tamai thung hoiah khotui to krak.
5 The mountains melted from before the LORD, [even] that Sinai from before the LORD God of Israel.
Angraeng hmaa ah mae to tui ah amkaw moe, Sinai mae doeh Israel Angraeng Sithaw hmaa ah atui amzawt.
6 In the days of Shamgar the son of Anath, in the days of Jael, the highways were unoccupied, and the travellers walked through byways.
Anath capa Shamgar dung hoi Jael dung ah, lampuinawk to angqai krang pongah, kholong caeh kaminawk mah lam tamcaek loklam to pazui o ving boeh.
7 [The inhabitants of] the villages ceased, they ceased in Israel, until that I Deborah arose, that I arose a mother in Israel.
Vangta thungah Israel kaminawk khosakhaih to boeng boeh; kai Deborah hae kangthawk moe, Israel ih amno ah kang thawk ai karoek to, Israel prae thungah khosah kami to kha.
8 They chose new gods; then [was] war in the gates: was there a shield or spear seen among forty thousand in Israel?
Israel kaminawk loe kangtha sithawnawk to qoih o; to naah nihcae ih vangpui khongkha thungah misanawk angzoh o; Israel kami sang quipalito mah angvaenghaih aphaw hoi tayae maeto doeh tawn o ai.
9 My heart [is] toward the governors of Israel, that offered themselves willingly among the people. Bless ye the LORD.
Israel siangpahrangnawk loe kaminawk hoi nawnto toksak hanah, angmacae koeh ah palung angpaek o pongah, Israel ukkungnawk khaeah poekhaih palungthin to ka suek; to pongah nangcae mah Angraeng to saphaw oh.
10 Speak, ye that ride on white asses, ye that sit in judgment, and walk by the way.
Nangcae laa hrang kanglung angthueng kaminawk, lokcaek kaminawk, loklam caeh kaminawk,
11 [They that are delivered] from the noise of archers in the places of drawing water, there shall they rehearse the righteous acts of the LORD, [even] the righteous acts [toward the inhabitants] of his villages in Israel: then shall the people of the LORD go down to the gates.
Tuidokhaih ahmuen ah kalii sin kaminawk ih ban thung hoi nangcae pahlong kaminawk ih lok to na thaih o naah, laa to sah oh; nihcae loe Angraeng toenghaih to thuih o moe, Israel avangnawk thungah kaom kaminawk mah sak ih toenghaih kawng to a thuih o. To naah Angraeng ih kaminawk loe angmacae ohhaih ahmuen ah amlaem o tih.
12 Awake, awake, Deborah: awake, awake, utter a song: arise, Barak, and lead thy captivity captive, thou son of Abinoam.
Angthawk ah, angthawk ah, Deborah; angthawk ah, angthawk loe, laa sah ah; angthawk ah, Aw Barak! Aw Abinoam caanawk, misatukhaih ahmuen ah naeh ih kaminawk to hoi ah.
13 Then he made him that remaineth have dominion over the nobles among the people: the LORD made me have dominion over the mighty.
To naah kanghmat kaminawk loe kami ukkungnawk khaeah caeh o; Angraeng loe angzoh moe, thacak kaminawk ukhaih to ang paek.
14 Out of Ephraim [was there] a root of them against Amalek; after thee, Benjamin, among thy people; out of Machir came down governors, and out of Zebulun they that handle the pen of the writer.
Amalek kaminawk taengah kaom kaminawk loe, Ephraim prae thung hoiah tacawt o; Benjamin kaminawk loe nangcae hnukah bang o; misatuh ukkungnawk loe Makir ih acaeng thung hoiah angzoh o; Zebulun acaeng thung hoiah loe khokhan thaih kaminawk to angzoh o.
15 And the princes of Issachar [were] with Deborah; even Issachar, and also Barak: he was sent on foot into the valley. For the divisions of Reuben [there were] great thoughts of heart.
Issakar siangpahrang capanawk loe Deborah hoi nawnto oh o; Issakar acaeng loe Barak hoi doeh nawnto oh o; anih loe karangah azawn ah cawnh. Reuben ohhaih prae thungah loe khopoek thaih kaminawk to oh o.
16 Why abodest thou among the sheepfolds, to hear the bleatings of the flocks? For the divisions of Reuben [there were] great searchings of heart.
Tipongah tuu hanghaih lok thaih hanah, tuu khongkha thungah na oh loe? Reuben ohhaih prae thungah loe khopoek thaih kaminawk oh o.
17 Gilead abode beyond Jordan: and why did Dan remain in ships? Asher continued on the sea shore, and abode in his breaches.
Gilead loe Jordan vapui yaeh ah oh; tipongah Dan acaeng loe palongpuinawk ohhaih ahmuen taengah khosak o loe? Asher loe tuipui taengah oh moe, tuipui taeng ih azawn ah oh.
18 Zebulun and Naphtali [were] a people [that] jeoparded their lives unto the death in the high places of the field.
Zebulun kaminawk hoi Naphtali kaminawk loe misa angtukhaih maesang nuiah hinghaih paek han khoek to a koeh o.
19 The kings came [and] fought, then fought the kings of Canaan in Taanach by the waters of Megiddo; they took no gain of money.
Siangpahrangnawk loe angzoh o moe, misa to tuk o; Kanaan ih siangpahrangnawk mah Meggido tui ohhaih taeng ih, Taanak vangpui to tuk o, toe aicae ih phoisa to la o thai ai.
20 They fought from heaven; the stars in their courses fought against Sisera.
Van bang hoiah nihcae tuk o; cakaehnawk loe angmacae amhaehaih loklam hoiah Sisera to tuk o.
21 The river of Kishon swept them away, that ancient river, the river Kishon. O my soul, thou hast trodden down strength.
Kishon vapui, kangquem vapui, Kishon vapui mah nihcae to pazawk boih boeh; Aw ka hinghaih, thacak kaminawk to na tit boeh.
22 Then were the horsehoofs broken by the means of the pransings, the pransings of their mighty ones.
Hrang kangthueng kaminawk loe hrang hoi cawnh o ving pongah, hrang khokpadae to koih pae, thacak hrang khokpadae to akah pae rak.
23 Curse ye Meroz, said the angel of the LORD, curse ye bitterly the inhabitants thereof; because they came not to the help of the LORD, to the help of the LORD against the mighty.
Nihcae loe Angraeng abomh hanah angzo o ai moe, thacak kaminawk tuk hanah Angraeng khaeah angzo o ai pongah, Meroz vangpui to tangoeng thui ah, tiah Angraeng ih van kami mah thuih.
24 Blessed above women shall Jael the wife of Heber the Kenite be, blessed shall she be above women in the tent.
Ken acaeng, Heber ih zu, Jael loe tahamhoih koek nongpata ah oh; kahni imthung ah kaom nongpatanawk thungah tahamhoih koek nongpata ah oh.
25 He asked water, [and] she gave [him] milk; she brought forth butter in a lordly dish.
Anih mah nongpata khaeah tui hnik naah, maitaw tahnutui to a paek moe, angraeng mah caak ih maitaw tahnutui kamkhawk to a paek.
26 She put her hand to the nail, and her right hand to the workmen’s hammer; and with the hammer she smote Sisera, she smote off his head, when she had pierced and stricken through his temples.
Nongpata mah sumdik to lak moe, a bantang ban ah cakii to sinh pacoengah, cakii hoiah Sisera to boh mat; a lu ah boh pae hup moe, sumdik hoiah a naalaking to takhing pae puet.
27 At her feet he bowed, he fell, he lay down: at her feet he bowed, he fell: where he bowed, there he fell down dead.
Anih loe Jael khokkung ah angsong, to ah amtimh moe, duek sut. Anih khokkung ah angsongh sut, to ah amtimh moe, amtimhaih ahmuen ah a duek.
28 The mother of Sisera looked out at a window, and cried through the lattice, Why is his chariot [so] long in coming? why tarry the wheels of his chariots?
Sisera amno loe thokbuem hoiah khet, thokbuem taengah anghnut moe, tipongah maw anih ih hrang lakok loe angzo palang ai? Tipongah maw anih ih hrang lakok loe akra parai? tiah a qah.
29 Her wise ladies answered her, yea, she returned answer to herself,
Nongpatanawk thung ih palungha koek kami mah, anih han pathim pae ih lok loe,
30 Have they not sped? have they [not] divided the prey; to every man a damsel [or] two; to Sisera a prey of divers colours, a prey of divers colours of needlework, of divers colours of needlework on both sides, [meet] for the necks of [them that take] the spoil?

31 So let all thine enemies perish, O LORD: but [let] them that love him [be] as the sun when he goeth forth in his might. And the land had rest forty years.
To pongah Aw Angraeng, na misanawk boih loe anghmaa angtaa o nasoe! Toe nang palung kaminawk loe, ni tacawt tahang nathuem ih thacakhaih baktih toengah om o nasoe, tiah a thuih. To pacoengah prae thungah saning quipalito thung monghaih to oh.
