1 وعاد بنو اسرائيل يعملون الشر في عيني الرب بعد موت اهود.2 فباعهم الرب بيد يابين ملك كنعان الذي ملك في حاصور. ورئيس جيشه سيسرا وهو ساكن في حروشة الامم.3 فصرخ بنو اسرائيل الى الرب لانه كان له تسع مئة مركبة من حديد وهو ضايق بني اسرائيل بشدة عشرين سنة4 ودبورة امرأة نبية زوجة لفيدوت هي قاضية اسرائيل في ذلك الوقت.5 وهي جالسة تحت نخلة دبورة بين الرامة وبيت ايل في جبل افرايم. وكان بنو اسرائيل يصعدون اليها للقضاء.6 فارسلت ودعت باراق بن ابينوعم من قادش نفتالي وقالت له ألم يامر الرب اله اسرائيل. اذهب وازحف الى جبل تابور وخذ معك عشرة آلاف رجل من بني نفتالي ومن بني زبولون.7 فأجذب اليك الى نهر قيشون سيسرا رئيس جيش يابين بمركباته وجمهوره وأدفعه ليدك.8 فقال لها باراق ان ذهبت معي اذهب. وان لم تذهبي معي فلا اذهب.9 فقالت اني اذهب معك غير انه لا يكون لك فخر في الطريق التي انت سائر فيها. لان الرب يبيع سيسرا بيد امرأة. فقامت دبورة وذهبت مع باراق الى قادش10 ودعا باراق زبولون ونفتالي الى قادش وصعد ومعه عشرة آلاف رجل. وصعدت دبورة معه.11 وحابر القيني انفرد من قاين من بني حوباب حمي موسى وخيّم حتى الى بلوطة في صعنايم التي عند قادش.12 واخبروا سيسرا بانه قد صعد باراق بن ابينوعم الى جبل تابور.13 فدعا سيسرا جميع مركباته تسع مئة مركبة من حديد وجميع الشعب الذين معه من حروشة الامم الى نهر قيشون.14 فقالت دبورة لباراق قم. لان هذا هو اليوم الذي دفع فيه الرب سيسرا ليدك. ألم يخرج الرب قدامك. فنزل باراق من جبل تابور ووراءه عشرة آلاف رجل.15 فازعج الرب سيسرا وكل المركبات وكل الجيش بحد السيف امام باراق. فنزل سيسرا عن المركبة وهرب على رجليه.16 وتبع باراق المركبات والجيش الى حروشة الامم. وسقط كل جيش سيسرا بحد السيف لم يبق ولا واحد.17 واما سيسرا فهرب على رجليه الى خيمة ياعيل امرأة حابر القيني. لانه كان صلح بين يابين ملك حاصور وبيت حابر القيني.18 فخرجت ياعيل لاستقبال سيسرا وقالت له مل يا سيدي مل اليّ. لا تخف. فمال اليها الى الخيمة وغطته باللحاف.19 فقال لها اسقيني قليل ماء لاني قد عطشت. ففتحت وطب اللبن واسقته ثم غطته.20 فقال لها قفي بباب الخيمة ويكون اذا جاء احد وسألك أهنا رجل انك تقولين لا.21 فأخذت ياعيل امرأة حابر وتد الخيمة وجعلت الميتدة في يدها وقارت اليه وضربت الوتد في صدغه فنفذ الى الارض وهو متثقل في النوم ومتعب فمات.22 واذا بباراق يطارد سيسرا فخرجت ياعيل لاستقباله وقالت له تعال فاريك الرجل الذي انت طالبه. فجاء اليها واذا سيسرا ساقط ميتا والوتد في صدغه.23 فاذل الله في ذلك اليوم يابين ملك كنعان امام بني اسرائيل.24 واخذت يد بني اسرائيل تتزايد وتقسو على يابين ملك كنعان حتى قرضوا يابين ملك كنعان

1 And the children of Israel again did evil in the sight of the LORD, when Ehud was dead.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, which dwelled in Harosheth of the Gentiles.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.4 And Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lapidoth, she judged Israel at that time.5 And she dwelled under the palm tree of Deborah between Ramah and Bethel in mount Ephraim: and the children of Israel came up to her for judgment.6 And she sent and called Barak the son of Abinoam out of Kedeshnaphtali, and said to him, Has not the LORD God of Israel commanded, saying, Go and draw toward mount Tabor, and take with you ten thousand men of the children of Naphtali and of the children of Zebulun?7 And I will draw to you to the river Kishon Sisera, the captain of Jabin' army, with his chariots and his multitude; and I will deliver him into your hand.8 And Barak said to her, If you will go with me, then I will go: but if you will not go with me, then I will not go.9 And she said, I will surely go with you: notwithstanding the journey that you take shall not be for your honor; for the LORD shall sell Sisera into the hand of a woman. And Deborah arose, and went with Barak to 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.11 Now 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 to the plain of Zaanaim, which is by Kedesh.12 And they showed Sisera that Barak the son of Abinoam was gone up to mount Tabor.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.14 And Deborah said to Barak, Up; for this is the day in which the LORD has delivered Sisera into your hand: is not the LORD gone out before you? So Barak went down from mount Tabor, and ten thousand men after him.15 And 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.16 But Barak pursued after the chariots, and after the host, to Harosheth of the Gentiles: and all the host of Sisera fell on the edge of the sword; and there was not a man left.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.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.19 And he said to her, Give me, I pray you, a little water to drink; for I am thirsty. And she opened a bottle of milk, and gave him drink, and covered him.20 Again he said to her, Stand in the door of the tent, and it shall be, when any man does come and inquire of you, and say, Is there any man here? that you shall say, No.21 Then Jael Heber' 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.22 And, behold, as Barak pursued Sisera, Jael came out to meet him, and said to him, Come, and I will show you the man whom you seek. And when he came into her tent, behold, Sisera lay dead, and the nail was in his temples.23 So God subdued on that day Jabin the king of Canaan before the children of Israel.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.
