Mpitsara 4
1 Ary ny Zanak’ Isiraely nanao izay ratsy eo imason’ i Jehovah indray, rehefa maty Ehoda.
And the children of Israel began againe to do wickedly in the sight of the Lord when Ehud was dead.
2 Ary Jehovah nivarotra azy ho eo an-tànan’ i Jabina, mpanjakan’ i Kanana, izay nanjaka tany Hazora, ary Sisera, izay nonina tany Harosetan’ ny Jentilisa, no komandin’ ny miaramilany.
And the Lord sold them into the hande of Iabin King of Canaan, that reigned in Hazor, whose chiefe Captaine was called Sisera, which dwelt in Harosheth of the Gentiles.
3 Dia nitaraina tamin’ i Jehovah ny Zanak’ Isiraely; fa nanana kalesy vy sivin-jato Jabina, ary nampahory fatratra ny Zanak’ Isiraely roa-polo taona izy.
Then the children of Israel cryed vnto the Lord: (for he had nine hundreth charets of yron, and twentie yeeres he had vexed the children of Israel very sore)
4 Ary Debora mpaminanivavy, vadin’ i Lapidota, no nitsara ny Isiraely tamin’ izany andro izany.
And at that time Deborah a Prophetesse the wife of Lapidoth iudged Israel.
5 Ary izy nipetraka teo ambanin’ ny hazo rofian’ i Debora, teo anelanelan’ i Rama sy Betela, tany amin’ ny tany havoan’ i Efraima; ary niakatra ho any aminy ny Zanak’ Isiraely hatsaraina.
And this Deborah dwelt vnder a palme tree, betweene Ramah and Beth-el in mount Ephraim, and the children of Israel came vp to her for iudgement.
6 Ary Debora naniraka ka niantso an’ i Baraka, zanak’ i Abinoama, tany Kadesi-naftaly, ka nanao taminy hoe: Moa tsy efa nandidy va Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny Isiraely, nanao hoe: Mandehana, ka mankanesa any an-tendrombohitra Tabara, ary mitondrà iray alin-dahy amin’ ny taranak’ i Naftaly sy Zebolona hiaraka aminao?
Then shee sent and called Barak the sonne of Abinoam out of Kadesh of Naphtali, and sayd vnto him, Hath not the Lord God of Israel commanded, saying, Goe, and drawe towarde mount Tabor, and take with thee ten thousande men of the children of Naphtali and of the children of Zebulun?
7 Dia ho entiko ho eo aminao, eo amoron’ ny ony Kisona, Sisera, komandin’ ny miaramilan’ i Jabina, mbamin’ ny kalesiny sy ny vahoakany maro be; dia hanolotra azy eo an-tananao Aho.
And I wil drawe vnto thee to the riuer Kishon Sisera, the captaine of Iabins armie with his charets, and his multitude, and wil deliuer him into thine hand.
8 Ary hoy Baraka taminy: Raha handeha hiaraka amiko ianao, dia handeha aho; fa raha tsy handeha hiaraka amiko kosa ianao, dia tsy handeha aho.
And Barak sayd vnto her, If thou wilt go with me, I will go: but if thou wilt not goe with me, I will not go.
9 Ary hoy kosa izy: handeha hiaraka aminao ihany aho; kanefa tsy ho voninahitrao izao halehanao izao, satria ho eo an-tanam-behivavy no hivarotan’ i Jehovah an’ i Sisera. Dia niainga Debora ka nandeha niaraka tamin’ i Baraka hankany Kadesy
Then shee answered, I will surely goe with thee, but this iourney that thou takest, shall not be for thine honour: for the Lord shall sell Sisera into the hand of a woman. And Deborah arose and went with Barak to Kedesh.
10 Ary nantsoin’ i Baraka ho any Kadesy ny Zebolona sy ny Naftaly; dia nisy iray alin-dahy niakatra nanaraka azy; ary Debora niara-niakatra taminy.
And Barak called Zebulun and Naphtali to Kedesh, and he went vp on his feete with ten thousand men, and Deborah went vp with him.
11 Ary Hebera Kenita efa nisaraka tamin’ ny Kenita izay avy amin’ ny taranak’ i Hobaba, zaodahin’ i Mosesy, ary nilasy ambara-pahatongany teo amin’ ny hazo terebinta ao Zananima, izay eo anilan’ i Kadesy.
(Now Heber the Kenite, which was of the children of Hobab the father in lawe of Moses, was departed from the Kenites, and pitched his tent vntill the playne of Zaanaim, which is by Kedesh)
12 Ary nisy nilaza tamin’ i Sisera fa Baraka, zanak’ i Abinoama, niakatra any an-tendrombohitra Tabara.
Then they shewed Sisera, that Barak the sonne of Abinoam was gone vp to mout Tabor.
13 Dia nangonin’ i Sisera ny kalesiny rehetra, dia kalesy vy sivin-jato, sy ny vahoaka rehetra izay niaraka taminy avy tany Harosetan’ ny Jentilisa, hankany amin’ ny ony Kisona.
And Sisera called for all his charets, euen nine hundreth charets of yron, and all the people that were with him from Harosheth of the Gentiles, vnto the riuer Kishon.
14 Ary hoy Debora tamin’ i Baraka: Miakara, fa anio no andro hanoloran’ i Jehovah an’ i Sisera eo an-tananao; tsy mivoaka eo anoloanao va Jehovah? Dia nidina Baraka sy ny olona iray alina nanaraka azy, avy tany an-tendrombohitra Tabara.
Then Deborah sayd vnto Barak, Vp: for this is the day that the Lord hath deliuered Sisera into thine hand. Is not the Lord gone out before thee? So Barak went downe from mount Tabor, and ten thousand men after him.
15 Dia nampifanaritahin’ i Jehovah tamin’ ny lelan-tsabatra Sisera teo anoloan’ i Baraka sy ny kalesy rehetra ary ny miaramila rehetra; dia nidina niala tamin’ ny kalesy Sisera ka nandositra nandeha tongotra.
And the Lord destroyed Sisera and all his charets, and al his hoste with the edge of the sword before Barak, so that Sisera lighted downe off his charet, and fled away on his feete.
16 Ary Baraka nanenjika nanaraka ny kalesy sy ny miaramila hatrany Haroseta; dia lavon’ ny lelan-tsabatra avokoa ny miaramilan’ i Sisera rehetra; tsy nisy niangana na dia iray akory aza.
But Barak pursued after the charets, and after the hoste vnto Harosheth of the Gentiles: and all the hoste of Sisera fel vpon the edge of the sworde: there was not a man left.
17 Ary Sisera nandositra nandeha tongotra ho any amin’ ny lain’ i Jaela, vadin’ i Hebera Kenita; fa nihavana Jabina, mpanjakan’ i Hazora, sy ny mpianakavin’ i Hebera Kenita.
Howbeit Sisera fled away on his feete to the tent of Iael the wife of Heber the Kenite: (for peace was betweene Iabin the king of Hazor, and betweene the house of Heber the Kenite)
18 Dia nivoaka Jaela hitsena an’ i Sisera ka nanao taminy hoe: Miakara, tompokolahy, miakara atỳ amiko; aza matahotra. Ary rehefa niakatra ho ao aminy ao an-day izy, dia norakofany ny lamba firakotra.
And Iael went out to meete Sisera, and sayd vnto him, Turne in, my lord, turne in to me: feare not. And when he had turned in vnto her into her tent, she couered him with a mantell.
19 Ary hoy Sisera taminy: Masìna ianao, omeo rano kely hosotroiko, fa mangetaheta aho izany. Dia nanokatra ny siny hoditra nisy ronono izy ka nomeny hosotroiny; ary dia norakofany indray izy.
And he said vnto her, Giue me, I pray thee, a litle water to drinke: for I am thirstie. And shee opened a bottel of milke, and gaue him drinke, and couered him.
20 Dia hoy izy taminy: Mitsangàna eo am-baravaran’ ny lay, ka raha tàhiny misy avy ka manontany anao hoe: Misy olona va ato? dia ataovy hoe: Tsia.
Againe he sayde vnto her, Stande in the doore of the tent, and when any man doth come and enquire of thee, saying, Is any man there? thou shalt say, Nay.
21 Dia naka tsima-day Jaela, vadin’ i Hebera, sady nitondra tantanana teny an-tànany ka nitsaitsaika nankeo aminy; dia natsatony tamin’ ny fihirifany ny tsima-day, ka nihatra tamin’ ny tany fa efa renoky ny torimaso Sisera, satria sasatra ka dia maty izy.
Then Iael Hebers wife tooke a nayle of the tent, and tooke an hammer in her hande, and went softly vnto him, and smote the nayle into his temples, and fastened it into the grounde, (for he was fast a sleepe and weary) and so he dyed.
22 Ary nony, indro, avy Baraka manenjika an’ i Sisera, dia nivoaka hitsena azy Jaela ka nanao taminy hoe; Avia atỳ, fa hasehoko anao ny lehilahy izay tadiavinao. Ary rehefa tonga tao aminy izy, dia indro, ny fatin’ i Sisera niampatra teo, ary ny tsima-day teo amin’ ny fihirifany.
And behold, as Barak pursued after Sisera, Iael came out to meete him, and sayd vnto him, Come, and I wil shewe thee the man, whome thou seekest: and when he came into her tent, behold, Sisera lay dead, and the nayle in his temples.
23 Dia naetrin’ Andriamanitra teo anoloan’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely tamin’ izany andro izany Jabina, mpanjakan’ i Kanana.
So God brought downe Iabin the King of Canaan that day before the children of Israel.
24 Ary ny tanan’ ny Zanak’ Isiraely nihahery tamin’ i Jabina, mpanjakan’ i Kanana, mandra-pandringany azy.
And the hande of the children of Israel prospered, and preuailed against Iabin the King of Canaan, vntill they had destroyed Iabin King of Canaan.
