< Judges 5 >

1 Then sang Deborah and Barak the son of Abinoam on that day, saying,
Ary Debora sy Baraka, zanak’ i Abinoama, dia nihira tamin’ izany andro izany ka nanao hoe:
2 For that the leaders took the lead in Israel, for that the people offered themselves willingly, bless ye the LORD.
Noho ny fitarihan’ ny lehibe tamin’ ny Isiraely sy ny fahazotoan’ ny vahoaka nanolotena, dia miderà an’ i Jehovah.
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, the God of Israel.
Mandrenesa ianareo, ry mpanjaka, mihainoa ianareo, ry mpanapaka! Izaho indrindra no hihira ho an’ i Jehovah; hankalaza an’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, aho.
4 LORD, when thou wentest forth out of Seir, when thou marchedst out of the field of Edom, the earth trembled, the heavens also dropped, yea, the clouds dropped water.
Jehovah ô, fony nivoaka avy tany Seïra Hianao ary nandeha avy tany amin’ ny tany Edoma, dia nihorohoro ny tany, ary ny lanitra koa nitete; Eny, ny rahona matevina nitete rano.
5 The mountains flowed down at the presence of the LORD, even yon Sinai at the presence of the LORD, the God of Israel.
Ny tendrombohitra niempo teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah. Eny, na dia iry Sinay iry aza teo anatrehan’ i Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely.
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.
Tamin’ ny andron’ i Samgara, zanak’ i Anata, sy tamin’ ny andron’ i Jaela dia tsy nodiavina ny lalambe, fa ny sakeli-dalana mivilivily no nalehan’ ny mpandeha.
7 The rulers ceased in Israel, they ceased, until that I Deborah arose, that I arose a mother in Israel.
Lao ny tany an-tsaha; eny, lao tamin’ ny Isiraely izany, Mandra-pitsangako, izaho Debora, eny, mandra-pitsangako ho reny teo amin’ ny Isiraely.
8 They chose new gods; then was war in the gates: was there a shield or spear seen among forty thousand in Israel?
Nifidy andriamani-baovao ny olona, Ary tamin’ izay dia nisy ady hatrany am-bavahady. Moa nisy ampinga na lefona na dia iray akory aza hita va teo amin’ ny olona efatra alina tamin’ ny Isiraely?
9 My heart is toward the governors of Israel, that offered themselves willingly among the people: bless ye the LORD.
Ny foko mankasitraka ny mpanapaka amin’ ny Isiraely, izay nazoto nanolo-tena teo amin’ ny vahoaka, miderà an’ i Jehovah ianareo.
10 Tell [of it], ye that ride on white asses, ye that sit on rich carpets, and ye that walk by the way.
Hianareo izay mitaingina borikivavy fotsy, ianareo izay mipetraka amin’ ny lamba fitoerana, ary ianareo koa izay mandeha amin’ ny lalana, samia milaza.
11 Far 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 of his rule in Israel. Then the people of the LORD went down to the gates.
Lavitra ny feon’ ny mpandefa zana-tsipìka, dia eo amin’ ny fantsakan-drano, no hiresahany ny asa marina nataon’ i Jehovah, dia ny fahamarinany tamin’ ny tany Isily; Tamin’ izany dia nidina ny olon’ i Jehovah ho any am-bavahady.
12 Awake, awake, Deborah; awake, awake, utter a song: arise, Barak, and lead thy captivity captive, thou son of Abinoam.
Mifohaza, mifohaza, ry Debora; Mifohaza, mifohaza, ka mihirà! Mitsangana, ry Baraka; ento ny babonao, ry zanakalahin’ i Abinoama.
13 Then came down a remnant of the nobles [and] the people; the LORD came down for me against the mighty.
Tamin’ izany dia nidina izay olo-malaza sisa mbamin’ ny vahoaka, Jehovah nidina homba ahy koa hamely ny olo-mahery.
14 Out of Ephraim [came down] they whose root is in Amalek; after thee, Benjamin, among thy peoples; out of Machir came down governors, and out of Zebulun they that handle the marshal’s staff.
Ny avy amin’ i Efraima, izay miorina amin’ i Amaleka, dia nomba anao teo amin’ ny firenenao, ry Benjamina; Avy tany Makira no nidinan’ ny mpanao lalàna, ary avy tamin’ i Zebolona ireo mitana ny tehin’ ny mpifehy.
15 And the princes of Issachar were with Deborah; as was Issachar, so was Barak; into the valley they rushed forth at his feet. By the watercourses of Reuben there were great resolves of heart.
Ary ny andrianan’ Isakara niaraka tamin’ i Debora, dia Isakara sy Baraka koa; Nampandehanina nanaraka azy any an-dohasaha izy. Lehibe ny fiheverana am-po teny amin’ ny sakeli-dranon’ i Robena!
16 Why satest thou among the sheepfolds, to hear the pipings for the flocks? At the watercourses of Reuben there were great searchings of heart.
Nahoana ianao no nitoetra teo anelanelan’ ny vala, hihainoanao ny feon-tsodina any amin’ ny ondry? Lehibe ny fiheverana am-po teny amin’ ny sakeli-dranon’ i Robena!
17 Gilead abode beyond Jordan: and Dan, why did he remain in ships? Asher sat still at the haven of the sea, and abode by his creeks.
Gileada nitoetra tany an-dafin’ i Jordana; Ary nahoana Dana no nitoetra tany an-tsambo? Asera nitoetra tany amoron-dranomasina, Ary teny amin’ ny fitodiany no nipetrahany.
18 Zebulun was a people that jeoparded their lives unto the death, and Naphtali, upon the high places of the field.
Zebolona dia firenena nanao tsinontsinona ny ainy, na dia ho faty aza, Ary Naftaly koa teo amin’ ny fitoerana avo any an-tsaha.
19 The kings came and fought; then fought the kings of Canaan; in Taanach by the waters of Meggido: they took no gain of money.
Tonga ireo mpanjaka ka niady, eny, niady tao Tanaka ireo mpanjakan’ i Kanana, dia teo anilan’ ny ranon’ i Megido; Tsy nisy volafotsy azony ho babo.
20 They fought from heaven, the stars in their courses fought against Sisera.
Avy tany an-danitra no nisy ady: ny kintana tamin’ ny nalehany niady tamin’ i Sisera.
21 The river Kishon swept them away, that ancient river, the river Kishon. O my soul, march on with strength.
Ny ony Kisona nipaoka azy, Izany ony ela izany, dia ny ony Kisona. Mandrosoa amin-kery ianao, ry fanahiko!
22 Then did the horsehoofs stamp by reason of the pransings, the pransings of their strong ones.
Tamin’ izany dia nikatrokatroka ny kitron-tsoavaly noho ny fihazakazaka, dia ny fihazakazaky ny maheriny.
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.
Ozony Meroza, hoy Ilay Anjelin’ i Jehovah, Ozony dia ozòny ny mponina ao, Satria tsy mba tonga hanampy an’ i Jehovah izy, eny, tsy nanampy an’ i Jehovah hamely ny mahery.
24 Blessed above women shall Jael be, the wife of Heber the Kenite, blessed shall she be above women in the tent.
Hotahina mihoatra noho ny vehivavy anie Jaela, vadin’ i Hebera Kenita; Eny, hotahina mihoatra noho ny vehivavy mitoetra an-day anie izy.
25 He asked water, [and] she gave him milk; she brought him butter in a lordly dish.
Rano no nangatahin-dralehilahy, fa ronono aza no nomeny azy; Teo an-dovian’ andriana no nitondrany rononomandry.
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 through his head, yea, she pierced and struck through his temples.
Ny tànany nandray ny tsima-day, Ary ny tànany ankavanana nandray ny tantanan’ ny mpiasa, dia namely an’ i Sisera tamin’ ny tantanana izy ka nahavoa ny lohany; Namely mafy izy, dia nahaboroaka ny fihirifany.
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.
Teo amin’ ny tongo-dravehivavy no niondrehany nahalavoany niamparany, eny, teo amin’ ny tongony no niondrehany nahalavoany teo amin’ izay niondrehany no niamparan’ ny fatiny.
28 Through the window she looked forth, and cried, the mother of Sisera [cried] through the lattice, Why is his chariot so long in coming? why tarry the wheels of his chariots?
Tao amin’ ny varavarankely no nitsirihan’ ny renin’ i Sisera ka niantsoantsoany mafy; Eny, niantso tao amin’ ny makarakara izy hoe: Nahoana no ela izato kalesiny vao tonga? Nahoana no mitaredretra ny kodian’ ny kalesiny?
29 Her wise ladies answered her, yea, she returned answer to herself,
Izay hendry tamin’ ny andriambaviny no namaly azy, eny, ny tenany aza namaly hoe:
30 Have they not found, have they not divided the spoil? a damsel, two damsels to every man; to Sisera a spoil of divers colours, a spoil of divers colours of embroidery, of divers colours of embroidery on both sides, on the necks of the spoil?
Tsy efa mahita va izy? Tsy mizara babo va izy? Dia zazavavy iray na roa ho an’ ny isan-dahy, Ary lamba samy hafa volo ho babon’ i Sisera, Lamba roa samy hafa soratra ho eo am-bozon’ ny nahazo babo.
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.
Ho levona tahaka izany anie ny fahavalonao rehetra, Jehovah ô; Fa aoka izay tia Azy kosa ho tahaka ny masoandro, raha miposaka amin’ ny heriny izy. Dia nandry ny tany efa-polo taona.
