Judges 4
1 And the children of Israel again did evil in the sight of the LORD, after Ehud was dead.
Mgbe Ehud nwụsịrị, ụmụ Izrel mekwara ihe ọjọọ megide Onyenwe anyị.
2 And the LORD sold them into the hand of Jabin king of Canaan, that reigned in Hazor; the captain of whose host was Sisera, who dwelt in Harosheth of the Gentiles.
Nʼihi ya, Onyenwe anyị renyere ha nʼaka Jabin, eze Kenan, onye chịrị nʼobodo Hazọ. Aha onyeisi ndị agha ya bụ Sisera, onye bi nʼobodo a na-akpọ Heroshet Hagoyim.
3 And the children of Israel cried to the LORD: for he had nine hundred chariots of iron; and twenty years he mightily oppressed the children of Israel.
Nʼihi na o nwere narị ụgbọ agha igwe itoolu, ma megbukwaa ụmụ Izrel nke ukwu iri afọ abụọ, ha tikuru Onyenwe anyị mkpu akwa, ka o nyere ha aka.
4 And Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lapidoth, she judged Israel at that time.
Nʼoge a, Debọra, bụ nwanyị na-ebu amụma, nwunye Lapidọt bụ onyendu ụmụ Izrel.
5 And she dwelt under the palm tree of Deborah between Ramah and Bethel in mount Ephraim: and the children of Israel came up to her for judgment.
Ọ na-anọ nʼokpuru osisi nkwụ a na-akpọ Nkwụ Debọra, nke dị nʼagbata Rema na Betel, bụ nʼala ugwu ugwu Ifrem na-ekpe ikpe. Nʼebe ahụ ka ụmụ Izrel na-ejekwuru ya ka o doziere ha okwu ha niile.
6 And she sent and called Barak the son of Abinoam from Kedeshnaphtali, and said to him, Hath not the LORD God of Israel commanded, saying, Go and draw toward mount Tabor, and take with thee ten thousand men of the children of Naphtali and of the children of Zebulun?
O ziri ozi kpọọ Barak, nwa Abinoam, onye bi nʼobodo Kedesh, nke dị nʼime Naftalị, ọ sịrị ya, “Onyenwe anyị Chineke ụmụ Izrel na-enye gị iwu, ‘Gaa chịkọtaa puku ndị agha iri bụ ndị sitere nʼebo Naftalị na Zebụlọn, duru ha jeruo ugwu Taboa.
7 And I will draw to thee to the river Kishon Sisera, the captain of Jabin’s army, with his chariots and his multitude; and I will deliver him into thy hand.
Aga m edute Sisera, ọchịagha ndị agha Jabin, mee ka ọ bịaruo nso iyi ukwu Kishọn, ya na ụgbọ agha ya niile na ndị agha ya niile ma nyefee ha nʼaka gị.’”
8 And Barak said to her, If thou wilt go with me, then I will go: but if thou wilt not go with me, then I will not go.
Barak sịrị ya, “Ejikeere m ịga ma ọ bụrụ na ị ga-eso m. Ọ bụrụkwanụ na ị jụ iso m, agaghị m aga.”
9 And she said, I will surely go with thee: however the journey that thou takest shall not be for thy honour; for the LORD shall sell Sisera into the hand of a woman. And Deborah arose, and went with Barak to Kedesh.
Debọra sịrị, “Aghaghị m isoro gị jee ma nʼihi mkpebi gị nʼihe a, nsọpụrụ agaghị abụ nke gị, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị ga-enyefe Sisera nʼaka nwanyị.” Ya mere, Debọra biliri soro Barak jee obodo Kedesh.
10 And Barak called Zebulun and Naphtali to Kedesh; and he went up with ten thousand men at his feet: and Deborah went up with him.
Barak sitere nʼebo Zebụlọn na Naftalị kpọkọtaa ndị ikom ga-eso ya jee agha ahụ, puku ndị agha iri ndị dịnyere ya. Debọra sokwa ya jee.
11 Now Heber the Kenite, who was of the children of Hobab the father in law of Moses, had separated himself from the Kenites, and pitched his tent to the plain of Zaanaim, which is by Kedesh.
Nʼoge a, Heba, onye Ken, ahapụla ndị Ken ndị ọzọ, ndị bụ ụmụ ụmụ Hobab, nwanne nwunye Mosis gaa maa ụlọ ikwu ya nʼokpuru osisi ukwu dị na Zaananim, nke dị nso Kedesh.
12 And they showed Sisera that Barak the son of Abinoam had gone up to mount Tabor.
Mgbe ha gwara Sisera na Barak nwa Abinoam arịgorola nʼelu ugwu Taboa,
13 And Sisera gathered together all his chariots, even nine hundred chariots of iron, and all the people that were with him, from Harosheth of the Gentiles to the river of Kishon.
Sisera kpọkọtara ndị agha ya niile, tinyere narị ụgbọ agha itoolu ya, site na Haroshet Haroyim gaa nʼiyi ukwu Kishọn.
14 And Deborah said to Barak, Arise; for this is the day when the LORD hath delivered Sisera into thy hand: hath not the LORD gone out before thee? So Barak went down from mount Tabor, and ten thousand men after him.
Mgbe ahụ, Debọra sịrị Barak, “Gaa nʼihu! Taa bụ ụbọchị nke Onyenwe anyị nyefere Sisera nʼaka gị. Ọ bụ na Onyenwe anyị apụbeghị jee nʼihu gị?” Nʼihi nke a, Barak duuru puku ndị agha iri ahụ gbada ndịda ugwu Taboa.
15 And the LORD destroyed Sisera, and all his chariots, and all his host, with the edge of the sword before Barak; so that Sisera came down from his chariot, and fled away on his feet.
Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị jiri mma agha ya chụsaa Sisera na ndị agha ya na ụgbọ agha igwe ha nʼihu Barak. Sisera nʼonwe ya hapụrụ ụgbọ agha ya jiri ụkwụ gbapụ ọsọ.
16 But Barak pursued the chariots, and the host, to Harosheth of the Gentiles: and all the host of Sisera fell upon the edge of the sword; and there was not a man left.
Barak na ndị agha ya chụrụ ndị agha ahụ ọsọ, ha na ụgbọ agha igwe ha niile, chụruo ha Haroshet Hagoyim. Ha ji mma agha tigbuo ndị agha Sisera niile. Ọ dịkwaghị otu onye nʼime ha fọdụrụ ndụ.
17 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.
Ma Sisera gbapụrụ ọsọ gaa zoo onwe ya nʼụlọ ikwu Jael, nwunye Heba, onye Ken. Nʼihi udo dị nʼetiti eze Jabin, onye Hazọ, na ndị ezinaụlọ Heba, onye Ken.
18 And Jael went out to meet Sisera, and said to him, Turn in, my lord, turn in to me; fear not. And when he had turned in to her into the tent, she covered him with a mantle.
Jael pụrụ ije zute Sisera sị ya, “Bịa Onyenwe m, bakwute m. Atụla ụjọ.” Ya mere na ọ bara nʼime ụlọ ikwu ya, o weere akwa ịchụ oyi kpuchie ya.
19 And he said to her, Give me, I pray thee, a little water to drink; for I am thirsty. And she opened a bottle of milk, and gave him a drink, and covered him.
Mgbe ahụ, ọ sịrị ya, “Akpịrị na-akpọ m nkụ, nyetụ m mmiri ka m ṅụọ.” O meghere karama akpụkpọ mmiri ara ehi, nye ya ihe ọṅụṅụ, jirikwa akwa ahụ sachie ya.
20 Again he said to her, Stand in the door of the tent, and it shall be, when any man doth come and enquire of thee, and say, Is there any man here? that thou shalt say, No.
Sisera gwara nwanyị ahụ bụ Jael okwu sị, “Guzo nʼọnụ ụzọ ụlọ a. Ọ bụrụ na onye ọbụla abịa jụọ gị, ‘O nwere onye gbabatara nʼebe a?’ sị ya, ‘Mba.’”
21 Then Jael Heber’s wife took a nail of the tent, and took an hammer in her hand, and went softly to him, and smote the nail into his temples, and fastened it into the ground: for he was fast asleep and weary. So he died.
Ike gwụrụ nnọọ Sisera. Mgbe ahụ, ọ malitere ịrahụ ụra, Jael, nwunye Heba, wepụtara otu ǹtu e ji a kpọgide ụlọ ikwu ahụ nʼala, werekwa mkpirisi igwe nʼaka ya. O jiri nwayọọ jekwuuru Sisera ebe o dina na-arahụ ụra, kpọọ ya ǹtu ahụ nʼegedege ihu ya. Otu a ka Sisera si nwụọ.
22 And, behold, as Barak pursued Sisera, Jael came out to meet him, and said to him, Come, and I will show thee the man whom thou seekest. And when he came into her tent, behold, Sisera lay dead, and the nail was in his temples.
Mgbe Barak bịara ịchọ Sisera, Jael jekwuru ya sị, “Bịa ka m gosi gị nwoke ahụ ị na-achọ.” Barak sooro ya jee, ma lee, Sisera anwụọlarị site na ǹtu ahụ a kpọrọ ya nʼisi.
23 So God subdued on that day Jabin the king of Canaan before the children of Israel.
Nʼụbọchị ahụ, Chineke meriri Jabin, eze ndị Kenan nʼihu ụmụ Izrel.
24 And the hand of the children of Israel prospered, and prevailed against Jabin the king of Canaan, until they had destroyed Jabin king of Canaan.
Aka ụmụ Izrel bụ nke dị ike na-adịkwa ike nke ukwu megide Jabin bụ eze Kenan ruo mgbe ha lara ya nʼiyi.
