¹A keď zomrel Ehúd, zase robili synovia Izraelovi to, čo je zlé v očiach Hospodinových.

¹And the children of Israel again did that which was evil in the sight of Jehovah, when Ehud was dead.

²A Hospodin ich predal do ruky Jabína, kananejského kráľa, ktorý kraľoval v Chacore, a veliteľom jeho vojska bol Sizera, ktorý býval v Charošete Pohanov.

²And Jehovah 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.

³A synovia Izraelovi kričali k Hospodinovi, lebo mal deväťsto železných vozov a silne utláčal synov Izraelových dvadsať rokov.

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

⁴No, bola istá Debora, žena prorokyňa, manželka Lapidotova; tá súdila Izraela toho času.

⁴Now Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lappidoth, she judged Israel at that time.

⁵A súdiac sedávala pod palmou Debory, medzi Rámou a medzi Bét-elom, na vrchu Efraimovom. A synovia Izraelovi chodili k nej hore na súd.

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

⁶A pošlúc posolstvo povolala Baráka, syna Abinoamovho, z Kedeša Naftaliho. A riekla mu: Či ti azda nerozkázal Hospodin, Bôh Izraelov, povediac: Idi a tiahni na vrch Tábor a vezmi so sebou desať tisíc mužov zo synov Naftaliho a zo synov Zabulona.

⁶And she sent and called Barak the son of Abinoam out of Kedesh-naphtali, and said unto him, Hath not Jehovah, the God of Israel, commanded, [saying], Go and draw unto mount Tabor, and take with thee ten thousand men of the children of Naphtali and of the children of Zebulun?

⁷A ja pritiahnem k tebe k potoku Kišonu Sizeru, veliteľa vojska Jabínovho, i jeho vozy i jeho množstvo a dám ho do tvojej ruky.

⁷And 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 thy hand.

⁸A Barák jej povedal: Ak pojdeš so mnou, pojdem, ale ak nepojdeš so mnou, nepojdem.

⁸And Barak said unto her, If thou wilt go with me, then I will go; but if thou wilt not go with me, I will not go.

⁹A riekla: Ísť pravda pojdem s tebou, ale nebude tvojej slávy na ceste, ktorou pojdeš, lebo Hospodin predá Sizeru do ruky ženy. A tedy vstala Debora a išla s Barákom do Kedeša.

⁹And she said, I will surely go with thee: notwithstanding, the journey that thou takest shall not be for thine honor; for Jehovah will sell Sisera into the hand of a woman. And Deborah arose, and went with Barak to Kedesh.

¹⁰A Barák svolal Zabulona a Naftaliho do Kedeša a vyviedol hore za sebou desať tisíc mužov, a išla s ním hore i Debora.

¹⁰And Barak called Zebulun and Naphtali together to Kedesh; and there went up ten thousand men at his feet: and Deborah went up with him.

¹¹A Cheber Kénejský sa bol oddelil od Kéna, od synov Chobába, švagra Mojžišovho, a postavil svoje stány až k dubu v Caanaime, ktoré je pri Kedeši.

¹¹Now Heber the Kenite had separated himself from the Kenites, even from the children of Hobab the brother-in-law of Moses, and had pitched his tent as far as the oak in Zaanannim, which is by Kedesh.

¹²A keď oznámili Sizerovi, že vyšiel hore Barák, syn Abinoamov, na vrch Tábor,

¹²And they told Sisera that Barak the son of Abinoam was gone up to mount Tabor.

¹³shromaždil Sizera krikom všetky svoje vozy deväťsto železných vozov, i všetok ľud, ktorý bol s ním, z Charošeta Pohanov, k potoku Kišonu.

¹³And 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 Kishon.

¹⁴A Debora riekla Barákovi: Vstaň, lebo toto je deň, ktorého dal Hospodin Sizeru do tvojej ruky! Či hľa, nevyšiel Hospodin pred tebou? Vtedy sišiel Barák s vrchu Tábora a desať tisíc mužov za ním.

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

¹⁵A Hospodin predesil Sizeru a porazil i všetky vozy i celý tábor ostrím meča pred Barákom. A Sizera sostúpiac s voza utekal peší.

¹⁵And Jehovah discomfited Sisera, and all his chariots, and all his host, with the edge of the sword before Barak; and Sisera alighted from his chariot, and fled away on his feet.

¹⁶A Barák honil vozy i vojsko až po Charošet Pohanov. A padlo všetko vojsko Sizerovo ostrím meča; nezostalo ani len jedného.

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

¹⁷A Sizera utekal peší do stánu Jaheli, ženy Chebera Kénejského, pretože bol pokoj medzi Jabínom, kráľom Chacora, a medzi domom Chebera Kénejského.

¹⁷Howbeit 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.

¹⁸A Jaheľ vyšla oproti Sizerovi a riekla mu: Uchýľ sa, môj pane, uchýľ sa ku mne, neboj sa. A tak sa uchýlil k nej do stánu, a ona ho prikryla huňou.

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

¹⁹A povedal jej: Daj sa mi, prosím, napiť trochu vody, lebo som smädný. A otvoriac kožicu na mlieko dala sa mu napiť a prikryla ho.

¹⁹And 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.

²⁰A povedal jej: Stoj pri dveriach stánu, a keby prišiel niekto a pýtal by sa ťa a povedal by: Či je tu niekto? Odpovieš: Nie je.

²⁰And he said unto her, Stand in the door of the tent, and it shall be, when any man doth come and inquire of thee, and say, Is there any man here? that thou shalt say, No.

²¹Potom vzala Jaheľ, žena Cheberova, klin od stánu a vzala kladivo do svojej ruky a vojdúc k nemu potichu, vrazila klin do jeho slychu, takže preniknul až do zeme. Lebo zaspal tvrdo a bol unavený a tak zomrel.

²¹Then Jael Heber's wife took a tent-pin, and took a hammer in her hand, and went softly unto him, and smote the pin into his temples, and it pierced through into the ground; for he was in a deep sleep; so he swooned and died.

²²A hľa, Barák honil Sizeru. A Jaheľ vyjdúc oproti nemu riekla mu: Poď, a ukážem ti muža, ktorého hľadáš. A vošiel k nej, a hľa, Sizera ležal mŕtvy, a klin bol vrazený v jeho slychu.

²²And, behold, as Barak pursued Sisera, Jael came out to meet him, and said unto him, Come, and I will show thee the man whom thou seekest. And he came unto her; and, behold, Sisera lay dead, and the tent-pin was in his temples.

²³A tak zohnul Bôh toho dňa Jabína, kananejského kráľa, pred synmi Izraelovými.

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

²⁴A ruka synov Izraelových stále a tvrde doliehala na Jabína, kananejského kráľa, viac a viac, dokiaľ len ho nevyťali, Jabína, kananejského kráľa.

²⁴And the hand of the children of Israel prevailed more and more against Jabin the king of Canaan, until they had destroyed Jabin king of Canaan.
