1 And Deborah and Barak son of Abinoam sang in that day, saying,
1 Y AQUEL día cantó Débora, con Barac, hijo de Abinoam, diciendo:
1 Then Deborah and Barak the son of Abinoam sang on that day, saying,
2 A revelation was made in Israel When the people were made willing: Praise ye the Lord.
2 Porque ha vengado las injurias de Israel, porque el pueblo se ha ofrecido de su voluntad, load á Jehová.
2 “Because the leaders took the lead in Israel, because the people offered themselves willingly, be blessed, Yahweh!
3 Hear, ye kings, and hearken, rulers: I will sing, it is I [who will sing] to the Lord, it is I, I will sing a psalm to the Lord the God of Israel.
3 Oid, reyes; estad, oh príncipes, atentos: yo cantaré á Jehová, cantaré salmos á Jehová Dios de Israel.
3 “Hear, you kings! Give ear, you princes! I, even I, will sing to Yahweh. I will sing praise to Yahweh, the God of Israel.
4 O Lord, in thy going forth on Seir, When thou wentest forth out of the land of Edom, The earth quaked and the heaven dropped dews, And the clouds dropped water.
4 Cuando saliste de Seir, oh Jehová, cuando te apartaste del campo de Edom, la tierra tembló, y los cielos destilaron, y las nubes gotearon aguas.
4 “Yahweh, when you went out of Seir, when you marched out of the field of Edom, the earth trembled, the sky also dropped. Yes, the clouds dropped water.
5 The mountains were shaken before the face of the Lord Eloi, This Sinai before the face of the Lord God of Israel.
5 Los montes se derritieron delante de Jehová, aqueste Sinaí, delante de Jehová Dios de Israel.
5 The mountains quaked at Yahweh’s presence, even Sinai at the presence of Yahweh, the God of Israel.
6 In the days of Shamgar son of Anath, in the days of Jael, They deserted the ways, and went in byways; They went in crooked paths.
6 En los días de Samgar hijo de Anath, en los días de Jael, cesaron los caminos, y los que andaban por las sendas apartábanse por torcidos senderos.
6 “In the days of Shamgar the son of Anath, in the days of Jael, the highways were unoccupied. The travelers walked through byways.
7 The mighty men in Israel failed, They failed until Deborah arose, Until she arose a mother in Israel.
7 Las aldeas habían cesado en Israel, habían decaído; hasta que yo Débora me levanté, me levanté madre en Israel.
7 The rulers ceased in Israel. They ceased until I, Deborah, arose; Until I arose a mother in Israel.
8 They chose new gods; Then the cities of rulers fought; There was not a shield or spear seen Among forty thousand in Israel.
8 En escogiendo nuevos dioses, la guerra estaba á las puertas: ¿se veía escudo ó lanza entre cuarenta mil en Israel?
8 They chose new gods. Then war was in the gates. Was there a shield or spear seen among forty thousand in Israel?
9 My heart [inclines] to the orders given in Israel; Ye that are willing among the people, bless the Lord.
9 Mi corazón está por los príncipes de Israel, los que con buena voluntad se ofrecieron entre el pueblo: load á Jehová.
9 My heart is toward the governors of Israel, who offered themselves willingly among the people. Bless Yahweh!
10 Ye that mount a she-ass at noonday, Ye that sit on the judgment seat, And walk by the roads of them that sit in judgment by the way; Declare
10 Vosotros los que cabalgáis en asnas blancas, los que presidís en juicio, y vosotros los que viajáis, hablad.
10 “Speak, you who ride on white donkeys, you who sit on rich carpets, and you who walk by the way.
11 [ye that are delivered] from the noise of disturbers Among the drawers of water; There shall they relate righteous acts: O Lord, increase righteous acts in Israel: Then the people of the Lord went down to the cities.
11 Lejos del ruido de los archeros, en los abrevaderos, allí repetirán las justicias de Jehová, las justicias de sus villas en Israel; entonces bajará el pueblo de Jehová á las puertas.
11 Far from the noise of archers, in the places of drawing water, there they will rehearse Yahweh’s righteous acts, the righteous acts of his rule in Israel. “Then Yahweh’s people went down to the gates.
12 Awake, awake, Deborah; Awake, awake, utter a song: Arise, Barak, And lead thy captivity captive, son of Abinoam.
12 Despierta, despierta, Débora; despierta, despierta, profiere un cántico. Levántate, Barac, y lleva tus cautivos, hijo de Abinoam.
12 ‘Awake, awake, Deborah! Awake, awake, utter a song! Arise, Barak, and lead away your captives, you son of Abinoam.’
13 Then went down the remnant to the strong, The people of the Lord went down for him among the mighty ones from me.
13 Entonces ha hecho que el que quedó del pueblo, señoree á los magníficos: Jehová me hizo enseñorear sobre los fuertes.
13 “Then a remnant of the nobles and the people came down. Yahweh came down for me against the mighty.
14 Ephraim rooted them out in Amalek, Behind thee was Benjamin among thy people: The inhabitants of Machir came down with me searching out the enemy, And from Zebulun came they that draw with the scribe’s pen of record.
14 De Ephraim [salió] su raíz contra Amalec tras ti, Benjamín, contra tus pueblos; de Machîr descendieron príncipes, y de Zabulón los que solían manejar punzón de escribiente.
14 Those whose root is in Amalek came out of Ephraim, after you, Benjamin, among your peoples. Governors come down out of Machir. Those who handle the marshal’s staff came out of Zebulun.
15 And princes in Issachar were with Deborah and Barak, Thus she sent Barak on his feet in the valleys Into the portions of Reuben; Great [pangs] reached to the heart.
15 Príncipes también de Issachâr fueron con Débora; y como Issachâr, también Barac se puso á pie en el valle. De las divisiones de Rubén hubo grandes impresiones del corazón.

16 Why did they sit between the sheepfolds To hear the bleating of flocks For the divisions of Reuben? [There were] great searchings of heart.
16 ¿Por qué te quedaste entre las majadas, para oir los balidos de los rebaños? De las divisiones de Rubén grandes fueron las disquisiciones del corazón.

17 Gilead [is] on the other side of Jordan where he pitched his tents; And why does Dan remain in ships? Asher sat down on the seacoasts, And he will tabernacle at his ports.
17 Galaad se quedó de la otra parte del Jordán: y Dan ¿por qué se estuvo junto á los navíos? Mantúvose Aser á la ribera de la mar, y quedóse en sus puertos.
17 Gilead lived beyond the Jordan. Why did Dan remain in ships? Asher sat still at the haven of the sea, and lived by his creeks.
18 The people Zebulun exposed their soul to death, And Naphtali came to the high places of their land.

21 The river Kishon swept them away, that ancient river, the river Kishon. My soul, march on with strength.
22 When the hoofs of the horse were entangled, His mighty ones earnestly hastened
22 Despalmáronse entonces las uñas de los caballos por las arremetidas, por los brincos de sus valientes.

23 To curse Meroz: Curse ye [it], said the angel of the Lord; Cursed [is] everyone that dwells in it, Because they came not to the help of the Lord, To his help among the mighty.
23 Maldecid á Meroz, dijo el ángel de Jehová: maldecid severamente á sus moradores, porque no vinieron en socorro á Jehová, en socorro á Jehová contra los fuertes.
23 ‘Curse Meroz,’ said Yahweh’s angel. ‘Curse bitterly its inhabitants, because they didn’t come to help Yahweh, to help Yahweh against the mighty.’

30 ¿No han hallado despojos, [y los] están repartiendo? á cada uno una moza, ó dos: los despojos de colores para Sísara, los despojos bordados de colores: [la ropa] de color bordada de ambos lados, para los cuellos de [los que han tomado] los despojos.
30 ‘Have they not found, have they not divided the plunder? A lady, two ladies to every man; to Sisera a plunder of dyed garments, a plunder of dyed garments embroidered, of dyed garments embroidered on both sides, on the necks of the plunder?’
