1 Después de la muerte de Aod, los israelitas volvieron a hacer lo que era malo a los ojos del Señor.
1 The children of Israel again did that which was evil in Yahweh’s sight, when Ehud was dead.
2 Así que el Señor los vendió a Jabín, rey de Canaán, que gobernaba desde Hazor. Su comandante del ejército era Sísara, que vivía en Jaroset Goyim.
2 Yahweh sold them into the hand of Jabin king of Canaan, who reigned in Hazor; the captain of whose army was Sisera, who lived in Harosheth of the Gentiles.
3 Los israelitas clamaron al Señor para que los ayudara, porque Sísara tenía novecientos carros de hierro y los maltrató cruelmente durante veinte años.
3 The children of Israel cried to Yahweh, for he had nine hundred chariots of iron; and he mightily oppressed the children of Israel for twenty years.
4 Débora, esposa de Lapidot, era profeta y dirigía a Israel como juez en ese momento.
4 Now Deborah, a prophetess, the wife of Lappidoth, judged Israel at that time.
5 Se sentaba bajo la palma de Débora, entre Ramá y Betel, en la región montañosa de Efraín, y los israelitas acudían a ella para que tomara sus decisiones.
5 She lived under Deborah’s palm tree between Ramah and Bethel in the hill country of Ephraim; and the children of Israel came up to her for judgment.
6 Mandó llamar a Barac, hijo de Abinoam, desde la ciudad de Cedes, en Neftalí, y le dijo: “El Señor, el Dios de Israel, te lo ordena: ‘Ve al monte Tabor, y toma contigo diez mil hombres de Neftalí y Zabulón, y llévalos allí.
6 She sent and called Barak the son of Abinoam out of Kedesh Naphtali, and said to him, “Hasn’t Yahweh, the God of Israel, commanded, ‘Go and lead the way to Mount Tabor, and take with you ten thousand men of the children of Naphtali and of the children of Zebulun?
7 Yo llevaré a Sísara, el comandante del ejército de Jabín, con sus carros y sus tropas, hasta el río Cisón, y te lo entregaré’”.
7 I will draw to you, to the river Kishon, Sisera, the captain of Jabin’s army, with his chariots and his multitude; and I will deliver him into your hand.’”
8 Barac respondió: “Si vienes conmigo, iré; pero si no vienes conmigo, no iré”.
8 Barak said to her, “If you will go with me, then I will go; but if you will not go with me, I will not go.”
9 “Definitivamente iré contigo”, respondió Débora, “pero si vas a tomar ese camino, no recibirás ningún respeto, porque el Señor entregará a Sísara en manos de una mujer”. Débora se levantó y fue con Barac a Cedes.
9 She said, “I will surely go with you. Nevertheless, the journey that you take won’t be for your honor; for Yahweh will sell Sisera into a woman’s hand.” Deborah arose, and went with Barak to Kedesh.
10 Barac convocó a los ejércitos de Zabulón y Neftalí, y diez mil hombres se reunieron bajo su mando. Débora también estaba allí con él.
10 Barak called Zebulun and Naphtali together to Kedesh. Ten thousand men followed him; and Deborah went up with him.
11 (Heber el ceneo se había separado de los demás ceneos, los descendientes de Hobab, el suegro de Moisés, y había instalado su tienda en el gran árbol de Zaanannim, que está cerca de Cedes).
11 Now Heber the Kenite had separated himself from the Kenites, even from the children of Hobab, Moses’ brother-in-law, and had pitched his tent as far as the oak in Zaanannim, which is by Kedesh.
12 Sísara se enteró de que Barac, hijo de Abinoam, había ido al monte Tabor,
12 They told Sisera that Barak the son of Abinoam had gone up to Mount Tabor.
13 así que convocó a todos sus novecientos carros de hierro y a todos sus hombres para que vinieran desde Jaroset Goyim hasta el río Cisón.
13 Sisera gathered together all his chariots, even nine hundred chariots of iron, and all the people who were with him, from Harosheth of the Gentiles, to the river Kishon.
14 Entonces Débora le dijo a Barac: “¡Ponte en marcha! Hoy el Señor te ha entregado a Sísara. ¿No marchó el Señor delante de ti?” Entonces Barac bajó del monte Tabor, acompañado de diez mil hombres.
14 Deborah said to Barak, “Go; for this is the day in which Yahweh has delivered Sisera into your hand. Hasn’t Yahweh gone out before you?” So Barak went down from Mount Tabor, and ten thousand men after him.
15 Cuando Barac atacó, el Señor hizo entrar en pánico a Sísara y a todos sus carros y guerreros. Sísara saltó de su carro y huyó.
15 Yahweh confused Sisera, all his chariots, and all his army, with the edge of the sword before Barak. Sisera abandoned his chariot and fled away on his feet.
16 Barac persiguió a los carros y a las tropas hasta Jaroset Goyim. Todo el ejército de Sísara murió; no sobrevivió ni un solo hombre.
16 But Barak pursued the chariots and the army to Harosheth of the Gentiles; and all the army of Sisera fell by the edge of the sword. There was not a man left.
17 Mientras tanto, Sísara había huido a la tienda de Jael, la esposa de Heber el ceneo, porque había un tratado de paz entre Jabín, rey de Hazor, y la familia de Heber el ceneo.
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 Jael salió al encuentro de Sísara y le dijo: “Entra, señor mío, entra conmigo. No tengas miedo”. Así que él entró en su tienda, y ella lo cubrió con una gruesa manta.
18 Jael went out to meet Sisera, and said to him, “Turn in, my lord, turn in to me; don’t be afraid.” He came in to her into the tent, and she covered him with a rug.
19 “Por favor, dame un poco de agua para beber, porque tengo sed”, le pidió Sísara. Así que ella abrió un odre de leche, le dio de beber y lo volvió a tapar.
19 He said to her, “Please give me a little water to drink; for I am thirsty.” She opened a container of milk, and gave him a drink, and covered him.
20 “Haz guardia en la puerta de la tienda”, le dijo él. “Si viene alguien y te pregunta: ‘¿Hay alguien aquí?’ , sólo di que no”.
20 He said to her, “Stand in the door of the tent, and if any man comes and inquires of you, and says, ‘Is there any man here?’ you shall say, ‘No.’”
21 Pero Jael, la esposa de Heber, tomó una estaca de la tienda y un martillo y se acercó sigilosamente a él, donde yacía profundamente dormido y agotado. Le clavó la estaca de la tienda en la sien hasta atravesarlahasta la tierra, y así murió.
21 Then Jael, Heber’s wife, took a tent peg, and took a hammer in her hand, and went softly to him, and struck the pin into his temples, and it pierced through into the ground, for he was in a deep sleep; so he fainted and died.
22 Cuando Barak pasó, buscando a Sísara, Jael salió a su encuentro y le dijo: “Ven aquí y te mostraré al hombre que buscas”. Él entró con ella, y allí yacía Sísara, muerto, con la estaca de la tienda atravesada en la sien.
22 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.” He came to her; and behold, Sisera lay dead, and the tent peg was in his temples.
23 Ese día Dios derrotó a Jabín, rey de Canaán, en presencia de los israelitas.
23 So God subdued Jabin the king of Canaan before the children of Israel on that day.
24 A partir de entonces Israel se hizo cada vez más poderoso hasta que destruyó a Jabín, rey de Hazor.
24 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.
