(底波拉和巴拉的歌 五1~31) 5:1-31) 那日,底波拉和亚比挪庵的儿子巴拉唱歌,说,
Then Deborah and Barak the son of Abinoam sang on that day, saying: 因为以色列中有首领统率,百姓也甘心奉献自己,你们应当颂赞耶和华。
That the leaders took the lead in Israel, / That the people have willingly offered themselves, / Bless Jehovah. 君王啊,要听!掌权者啊,要侧耳听!我要向耶和华歌唱;我要歌颂耶和华以色列的神。
Hear, O kings; give ear, O princes! / I will sing; I, to Jehovah. / I will sing praise to Jehovah / The God of Israel. 耶和华啊,你从西珥出来,由以东田间行走;那时地震天漏,云也落雨。
O Jehovah, when You went forth from Seir, / When You marched from the field of Edom, / The earth trembled, the heavens also dripped, / Indeed the clouds dripped water. 诸山见耶和华的面就震动,这西乃山见耶和华以色列神的面也是如此。
The mountains quaked at the presence of Jehovah, / Sinai there, at the presence of Jehovah the God of Israel. 在亚拿的儿子珊迦之日,在雅亿的日子,大道无人行走,都是绕道而行。
In the days of Shamgar the son of Anath, / In the days of Jael, the highways were not used; / And travelers went / On the roundabout paths. 以色列中的乡村一无动静,一无动静,直到我底波拉兴起,等我兴起作以色列的母。
The villages ceased to act; / They ceased in Israel; / Until I, Deborah, rose up; / Until I rose up as a mother in Israel. 以色列一选择新神,战事就临到城门;以色列四万人中,岂看得见盾牌枪矛么?
They chose new gods; / Then there was war in their gates. / Was a shield or a spear seen / Among forty thousand in Israel? 我心倾向以色列的统帅,他们在民中甘心奉献自己。你们应当颂赞耶和华!
My heart is with the commanders of Israel, / Those who offered themselves willingly among the people. / Bless Jehovah! 骑白驴的、坐华毯的、行路的,你们都当传扬。
Tell of it, you who ride on white donkeys, / You who sit on rich carpets, / And you who go upon the way. 在供水之处,人必扬声,比在其间配水之人的声音更响亮,述说耶和华公义的作为,就是祂在以色列乡村公义的作为。那时耶和华的民下到城门。
Louder than the voice of those who distribute water among the watering places, / There they recount the righteous deeds of Jehovah, / His righteous acts toward His villages in Israel. / Then the people of Jehovah went down to the gates. 醒起!醒起,底波拉!醒起!醒起,唱歌吧!巴拉,起来;亚比挪庵的儿子,掳掠你的俘虏。
Awake! Awake, Deborah! / Awake! Awake, speak forth a song! / Arise, Barak; / And lead captive your captives, son of Abinoam. 那时有余剩的贵胄下来;耶和华的百姓与我一同下来攻击勇士。
Then a remnant of the nobles went down; / The people of Jehovah went down with me against the mighty: 有生根于亚玛力,从以法莲下来的;便雅悯在民中跟随你。有统帅从玛吉下来,有持着权杖检点民数的,从西布伦下来。
From Ephraim, those who took root in Amalek; / Following you, Benjamin, with your peoples; / From Machir commanders came down, / And from Zebulun those who wielded the staff of him who marshals. 以萨迦的首领与底波拉同来;以萨迦以忠诚待巴拉,众人都跟随巴拉冲下山谷。在流便的族系中,有心中定大志的。
And the princes in Issachar were with Deborah; / And Issachar was true to Barak; / Into the valley they were sent behind him. / Among the divisions of Reuben / There were great resolutions in heart. 你为何坐在羊圈之间,听召唤群羊的笛声呢?在流便的族系中,有心中设大谋的。
Why did you sit among the sheepfolds / Listening to the pipings for the flocks? / In the divisions of Reuben / There were great searchings of heart. 基列人在约但河外居住。但人为何等在船上?亚设人在海岸坐着,在港口居住。
Gilead stayed across the Jordan. / And as for Dan, why did he remain with the ships? / Asher sat at the shore of the sea / And stayed at his landings. 西布伦人是拼命敢死之民;拿弗他利人在田野的高处也是如此。
Zebulun was a people that despised their own lives even unto death; / And Naphtali, on the heights of the field. 君王都来争战。那时迦南诸王在米吉多水旁的他纳争战,却未得掳掠银钱。
The kings came; they fought. / At that time the kings of Canaan fought / In Taanach by the waters of Megiddo; / They took no gain of silver. 星宿从天上争战,从其轨道攻击西西拉。
From heaven the stars fought; / From their courses they fought with Sisera. 基顺河,就是那基顺古河,把敌人冲没;我的魂哪,应当努力前行。
The river Kishon swept them away, / The ancient river, the river Kishon. / March on, O my soul, with strength! 那时马蹄顿跺,壮马腾跃。
At that time the horse hooves stamped / With the prancing, the prancing of their mighty steeds. 耶和华的使者说,应当咒诅米罗斯,大大咒诅其中的居民;因为他们不来帮助耶和华,不来帮助耶和华攻击勇士。
Curse Meroz, says the Angel of Jehovah; / Bitterly curse its inhabitants. / For they did not come to the aid of Jehovah, / To the aid of Jehovah against the mighty. 愿基尼人希百的妻子雅亿比众妇人多得福分,比住帐棚的众妇人更蒙福祉。
Blessed among women shall Jael be, / The wife of Heber the Kenite; / Blessed among the women in the tent shall she be. 西西拉求水,雅亿给他奶,用款待贵胄的盘子呈上奶酪。
He asked for water; she gave him milk. / In a bowl for nobles she presented him with cream. 雅亿伸手拿着帐棚的橛子,伸右手拿着匠人的锤子,击打西西拉,打伤他的头,把他的鬓角打破穿通。
She put her hand to the tent peg, / And her right hand to the workman's hammer; / Then she struck Sisera; she smashed his head; / Indeed she shattered and pierced his temples. 西西拉在她脚前曲身倒卧,在她脚前曲身仆倒;在那里曲身,就在那里仆倒灭亡。
At her feet he bowed; he fell; he lay down. / At her feet he bowed; he fell. / Where he bowed, there he fell, destroyed. 西西拉的母亲从窗户里往外观看,从窗棂中尖声呼叫说,他的战车为何耽延不来呢?他的车轮为何行得慢呢?
Through the window one looks forth and cries shrilly; / The mother of Sisera, through the lattice: / Why is his chariot so long in coming? / Why do the tracks of his chariots delay? 她最聪明的宫女回答她,她也自言自语地说,
The wisest of her ladies answer her, / And she herself returns an answer to herself: 他们莫非得掠物而分?每个壮士得了一两个女子?西西拉得了彩衣为掳物,得了绣花的彩衣为掠物;这一两件绣花的彩衣,乃是披在掳掠者颈项上的。
Have they not found and divided the spoil? / A girl, two girls, to each mighty man. / The spoil of dyed garments to Sisera, / The spoil of dyed garments; / A dyed embroidery, two embroideries, / For the neck of the spoiler. 耶和华啊,愿你的仇敌都这样灭亡。愿爱你的人如日头出现,光辉烈烈。这样,那地太平四十年。
May all Your enemies so perish, O Jehovah. / But may those who love Him be like the sun / When it rises in its might. And the land had rest forty years. |
