1 A nd the children of Israel again did evil in the sight of the Lord, when Ehud was dead.

وَفَعَلَ بَنُو إسْرائِيلَ الشَّرَّ أمامَ اللهِ بَعْدَ مَوْتِ إهُودَ.

2 A nd the Lord sold them into the hand of Jabin king of Canaan, that reigned in Hazor; the captain of whose host was Sisera, which dwelt in Harosheth of the Gentiles.

فأسْقَطَهُمْ اللهُ بِيَدِ يابِينَ مَلِكِ كَنْعانَ الَّذِي كانَ يَحْكُمُ فِي حاصُورَ. وَكانَ سِيسَرا الَّذِي كانَ يَسْكُنُ فِي حَرُوشَةِ الأُمَمِ قائِداً لِجَيشِ يابِينَ.

3 A nd the children of Israel cried unto the Lord: for he had nine hundred chariots of iron; and twenty years he mightily oppressed the children of Israel.

فَاسْتَنْجَدَ بَنُو إسْرائِيلَ بِاللهِ ، إذْ كانَتْ لِسِيسَرا تِسْعُ مِئَةِ مَرْكَبَةٍ حَدِيدِيَّةٍ. وَقَدِ اضْطَّهَدَ بَنِي إسْرائِيلَ بِقَسْوَةٍ مُدَّةَ عِشْرِينَ سَنَةً.

4 A nd Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lapidoth, she judged Israel at that time.

وَكانَتْ دَبُورَةُ، وَهِيَ نَبِيَّةٌ، وَزَوْجَةٌ لِفِيدُوتَ، قاضِيَةً لِبَنِي إسْرائِيلَ فِي ذَلِكَ الوَقتِ.

5 A nd she dwelt under the palm tree of Deborah between Ramah and Beth-el in mount Ephraim: and the children of Israel came up to her for judgment.

وَكانَتْ تَجلِسُ لِلقَضَاءِ تَحْتَ نَخلَةِ دَبُورَةَ بَينَ الرّامَةِ وَبَيتِ إيلَ فِي مِنْطَقَةِ أفْرايِمَ الجَبَلِيَّةِ، حَيْثُ يأتِي بَنُو إسْرائِيلَ إلَيها بِقَضَاياهِمْ.

6 A nd she sent and called Barak the son of Abinoam out of Kedesh-naphtali, and said unto 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?

فَأرْسَلَتْ دَبُورَةُ رَسُولاً تَسْتَدْعِي باراقَ بْنَ أبِينُوعَمَ مِنْ قادَشَ فِي نَفْتالِي، وَقالَتْ لَهُ: «ها قَدْ أمَرَ اللهُ ، إلَهُ إسْرائِيلَ، وَقالَ: ‹اذْهَبْ وَخُذْ مَوْقِعاً عَلَى جَبَلِ تابُورَ. وَخُذْ مَعَكَ عَشْرَةَ آلافِ رَجُلٍ مِنْ بَنِي نَفْتالِي وَمِنْ بَنِي زَبُولُونَ،

7 A nd I will draw unto thee to the river Kishon Sisera, the captain of Jabin’s army, with his chariots and his multitude; and I will deliver him into thine hand.

سَأجْعَلُ سِيسَرا، قَائِدَ جَيشِ يابِينَ، يَخرُجُ بِعَرَباتِهِ وَقُوّاتِهِ إلَيكَ فِي وادِي قِيشُونَ. وَسَأُعِينُكَ عَلَى هَزيمَتِهِ.›»

8 A nd Barak said unto her, If thou wilt go with me, then I will go: but if thou wilt not go with me, then I will not go.

فَقالَ لَها باراقُ: «إنْ كُنْتِ مُسْتَعِدَّةً أنْ تَذْهَبِي مَعِي، فَسَأذْهَبُ. وَإنْ رَفَضْتِ أنْ تَأْتِي مَعِي، فَلَنْ اذْهَبَ.»

9 A nd she said, I will surely go with thee: notwithstanding the journey 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.

فَقالَتْ: «أنا آتِيَةٌ مَعَكَ، لَكِنِ اعلَمْ أنَّهُ لَنْ يَكُونَ لَكَ فَخْرٌ فِي السَّبِيلِ الَّذِي تَسِيرُ فِيهِ. إذْ سَيُعِينُ اللهُ امْرأةً عَلَى هَزِيمَةِ سِيسَرا.» ثُمَّ قامَتْ دَبُورَةُ وَمَضَتْ مَعَ باراقَ إلَى قادَشَ.

10 A nd Barak called Zebulun and Naphtali to Kedesh; and he went up with ten thousand men at his feet: and Deborah went up with him.

وَاسْتَدْعَى باراقُ قَبِيلَتَي زَبُولُونَ وَنَفْتالِي إلَى قادَشَ، وَتَبِعَهُ عَشْرَةُ آلافِ رَجُلٍ، وَذَهَبَتْ دَبُورَةُ مَعَهُ.

11 N ow Heber the Kenite, which was of the children of Hobab the father in law of Moses, had severed himself from the Kenites, and pitched his tent unto the plain of Zaanaim, which is by Kedesh.

وَكانَ حابِرُ القَينِيُّ قَدِ انْفَصَلَ عَنْ القَينِيِّينَ الآخَرِينَ، أي عَنْ نَسلِ حُوبابَ، حَمِي مُوسَى، وَخَيَّمَ حابِرُ عِنْدَ البَلُّوطَةِ فِي صَعَنايِمَ القَرِيبَةِ مِنْ قادَشَ.

12 A nd they shewed Sisera that Barak the son of Abinoam was gone up to mount Tabor.

وَقِيلَ لِسِيسَرا إنَّ باراقَ بْنَ أبِينُوعَمَ قَدْ صَعِدَ إلَى جَبَلِ تابُورَ،

13 A nd 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 unto the river of Kishon.

فَجَمَعَ سِيسَرا كُلَّ مَرْكَباتِهِ، وَهِيَ تِسْعُ مِئَةِ مَرْكَبَةٍ مِنْ حَدِيدٍ، وَدَعَى جَمِيعَ القُوّاتِ الَّتِي تَحْتَ إمْرَتِهِ، مِنْ حَرُوشَةِ الأُمَمِ إلَى نَهْرِ قِيشُونَ.

14 A nd Deborah said unto Barak, Up; for this is the day in which the Lord hath delivered Sisera into thine hand: is not the Lord gone out before thee? So Barak went down from mount Tabor, and ten thousand men after him.

فَقالَتْ دَبُورَةُ لِباراقَ: «قُمْ! فَهَذا هُوَ اليَوْمُ الَّذِي سَيُعِينُكَ اللهُ فِيهِ عَلَى هَزِيمَةِ سِيسَرا. اللهُ يَسيرُ أمامَكَ بِالفِعلِ.» فَنَزَلَ باراقُ مِنْ جَبَلِ تابُورَ، وَتَبِعَهُ عَشْرَةُ آلافِ رَجُلٍ.

15 A nd the Lord discomfited Sisera, and all his chariots, and all his host, with the edge of the sword before Barak; so that Sisera lighted down off his chariot, and fled away on his feet.

وَحِينَما هَجَمَ باراقُ، شَتَّتَ اللهُ سِيسَرا وَمَرْكَباتِهِ وَكُلَّ جَيشِهِ. فَنَزَلَ سِيسَرا عَنْ مَرْكَبَتِهِ وَهَرَبَ رَكْضاً عَلَى قَدَمَيهِ.

16 B ut Barak pursued after the chariots, and after the host, unto Harosheth of the Gentiles: and all the host of Sisera fell upon the edge of the sword; and there was not a man left.

وَطارَدَ باراقُ مَرْكَباتِ سِيسَرا وَجَيشَهُ حَتَّى حَرُوشَةِ الأُمَمِ، وَقَتَلَ جَيشَ سِيسَرا بِالسَّيفِ، فَلَمْ يَبْقَ مِنْهُمْ أحَدٌ.

17 H owbeit 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.

أمّا سِيسَرا فَهَرَبَ عَلَى قَدَمَيهِ إلَى خَيمَةِ ياعِيلَ، زَوْجَةِ حابِرَ القِينِيِّ، فَقَدْ كانَ هُناكَ سَلامٌ بَينَ يابِينَ مَلِكِ حاصُورَ وَعَشِيرَةِ حابِرَ القِينِيِّ.

18 A nd Jael went out to meet Sisera, and said unto him, Turn in, my lord, turn in to me; fear not. And when he had turned in unto her into the tent, she covered him with a mantle.

فَخَرَجَتْ ياعِيلُ لِتُلاقِي سِيسَرا، وَقالَتْ لَهُ: «تَفَضَّلْ هُنا يا سَيِّدِي، تَفَضَّلْ عِنْدِي وَلا تَخَفْ.» فَدَخَلَ خَيمَتَها، وَغَطَّتْهُ بِغَطاء.

19 A nd he said unto 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 drink, and covered him.

فَقالَ لَها: «أعطِنِي قَلِيلاً مِنَ الماءِ لِأشْرَبَ، فَأنا عَطْشانٌ.» فَفَتَحَتْ وِعاءَ الحَلِيبِ الجِلْدِيَّ، وَأعْطَتْهُ لِيَشْرَبَ، ثُمَّ غَطَّتْهُ.

20 A gain he said unto 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.

فَقالَ لَها: «قِفِي فِي مَدْخَلِ الخَيمَةِ، وَإنْ جاءَ أحَدٌ وَسَألَكِ: ‹هَلْ مِنْ أحَدٍ هُنا؟› فَقُولِي: ‹لا.›»

21 T hen Jael Heber’s wife took a nail of the tent, and took an hammer in her hand, and went softly unto him, and smote the nail into his temples, and fastened it into the ground: for he was fast asleep and weary. So he died.

أمّا ياعِيلُ زَوجَةُ حابِرَ، فَأخَذَتْ وَتَداً وَمِطرَقَةً فِي يَدِها، وَاقتَرَبَتْ مِنْهُ بِهُدُوءٍ وَهُوَ نائِمٌ نَوماً عَميقاً بِسَبِبِ تَعَبِهِ، وَدَقَّتِ الوَتَدَ فِي جانِبِ رَأْسِهِ حَتَّى نَفَذَ إلَى الأرْضِ! فَماتَ سِيسَرا.

22 A nd, behold, as Barak pursued Sisera, Jael came out to meet him, and said unto him, Come, and I will shew thee the man whom thou seekest. And when he came into her tent, behold, Sisera lay dead, and the nail was in his temples.

وَفِي تِلْكَ اللَّحْظَةِ، وَصَلَ باراقُ الَّذِي كانَ يُطارِدُ سِيسَرا، فَخَرَجَتْ ياعِيلُ لِتُلاقِيَهُ، وَقالَتْ لَهُ: «تَعالَ، وَسَأُرِيكَ الرَّجُلَ الَّذِي تَبْحَثُ عَنِهُ.» فَدَخَلَ خَيمَتَها، فَإذْ بِسِيسَرا مُلْقَىً مَيِّتاً، وَالوَتَدُ فِي رَأْسِهِ.

23 S o God subdued on that day Jabin the king of Canaan before the children of Israel.

وَهَكَذا أخضَعَ اللهُ فِي ذَلِكَ اليَوْمِ يابِينَ، مَلِكَ كَنْعانَ، لِبَنِي إسْرائِيلَ.

24 A nd the hand of the children of Israel prospered, and prevailed against Jabin the king of Canaan, until they had destroyed Jabin king of Canaan.

ثُمَّ اشْتَدَّتْ قُوَّةُ بَنِي إسْرائِيلَ أكثَرَ فَأكثَرَ عَلَى يابِينَ، مَلِكِ كَنْعانَ، إلَى أنْ قَضَوْا عَلَيهِ.
