Ihubo LikaDebhora NoBharaki

1 UDebhora noBharaki, indodana ka-Abhinowami, bacula ngalolo lusuku, bathi:

2 “Uma abaholi bakwa-Israyeli

behamba phambili,

nabantu bazinikela ngokukhululeka,

makadunyiswe uSimakade!

3 “Lalelani makhosi,

bekani indlebe zikhulu,

ngizakumhubela uSimakade

ngizakuhlabelela kuSimakade

uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli.

4 “Simakade lapho uphuma eSeyiri,

uphuma esifundeni kwa-Edomi

umhlaba wazamazama namazulu ayithulula,

amafu athulula amanzi.

5 Izintaba zathuthumela

phambi kukaSimakade waseSinayi,

phambi kukaSimakade uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli.

6 “Ezinsukwini zikaShamgari,

indodana ka-Anathi,

ezinsukwini zikaJayeli,

abantu bayibalekela imigwaqo emikhulu,

abahamba ngalezo ndlela bahamba

ngezindlela ezimazombezombe.

7 Imizi yakwa-Israyeli yama ingenamuntu,

Debhora, kwaze kwafika wena,

wafika njengonina ku-Israyeli.

8 Bakhetha onkulunkulu abasha,

kwase kuba khona impi emasangweni.

Phakathi kwezinkulungwane

ezingamashumi amane kwa-Israyeli,

ukhona yini owake waphatha

isihlangu nomkhonto, na?

9Inhliziyo yami ikubaholi bakwa-Israyeli

abazinikele phakathi kwabantu.

Dumisani uSimakade!

10 “Khulumani ngakho,

nina enigibela izimbongolo ezimhlophe,

nina enihlala emacansini ezinjinga,

nani enedlula ngendlela.

11 Lalelani umsindo wabaculi besemithonjeni yamanzi,

lapho bephinda ukunqoba kuka-Simakade,

ukunqoba kwezihlupheki kwa-Israyeli.

Abantu bakaSimakade behlela emasangweni.

12 “ ‘Vuka, vuka, we Debhora!

Vuka, vuka uhube ihubo.

Vuka, we Bharaki,

hola abathunjwa bakho,

ndodana ka-Abhinowami.’

13 “Kwase kwehla insali yesikhulu,

abantu bakaSimakade bahamba

behla ukubhekana nonamandla.

14 Kusukela kwa-Efrayimi baphumela esigodini,

kulandela wena Bhenjamini nabafowenu,

kusukela eMakhiri,

bahamba abakhuzi bempi

behla kusukela kwaZebuloni,

kwehla abaphethe induku yomkhuzi wempi.

15 Izikhulu zakwa-Isakhare zeza noDebhora,

no-Isakhare wethembeka kuBharaki;

baphuthuma esigodini besezithendeni zakhe.

Phakathi kwabomndeni kaRubeni

kwaba nokuzihlola okukhulu ezinhliziyweni.

16 Wahlalelani esihulugwini

ukuze uzwe ukukhala kwemihlambi na?

Phakathi kwabomndeni wakwaRubeni

kwakukhona okukhulu ukuzihlola ezinhliziyweni.

17 UGileyadi wahlala phesheya kweJordani;

noDani walibalelani ngasemikhunjini, na?

U-Ashera wahlala akanyakaza ogwini lolwandle,

wahlala ngasethekwini lalo.

18 UZebuloni yisizwe samadelakufa,

noNafethali ngokunjalo,

ezindaweni eziphakemeyo zezwe.

19 “Amakhosi afika, alwa;

alwa namakhosi aseKhanani,

eThahanakhi, ngasemanzini eMegido;

awatholanga mpango yesiliva.

20 Izinkanyezi zalwa ezulwini,

emizileni yazo zalwa noSisera.

21 Umfudlana iKhishoni

wabakhukhula,

umfudlana odla izindwani,

umfudlana iKhishoni.

Nyathela,

mphefumulo wami,

nyathela ngamandla.

22 Kwezwakala umsindo wezinselo zamahhashi

zigabadula, zigabadula izinjomane ezinamandla.

23 ‘Qalekisani iMerozi,’

kusho ingelosi kaSimakade;

‘ziqalekiseni kabi izakhamuzi zalo,

ngoba azizanga ukuzosiza uSimakade,

ukuzosiza uSimakade elwa nesiqhwaga.’

24 “Ungobusisiwe kwabesifazane,

Jayeli mkaHebhere umKheni,

ungobusisiwe kwabesifazane abahlala emathendeni.

25Wacela amanzi,

wamnika ubisi,

wamlethela izangqondo ngomcengezi

ofanele amakhosi.

26Wabeka isandla sakhe esikhonkwaneni sethende

nesokudla sakhe esandweni sezisebenzi;

wamgqema ingozi uSisera

wamfihliza ikhanda,

wamgqobhoza,

wambhoboza esikhaleni sendlebe.

27Wawa, wadindiliza,

wawa ngasezinyaweni zakhe,

wawela lapho, wafa.

28 “Walunguza efasiteleni unina kaSisera,

wakhala ngemuva kwekhethini, ethi:

‘Ilibaleleni inqola yakhe ukubuya, na?

Uphi umsindo wezinqola zakhe, na?’

29Abesifazane bakhe abahlakaniphileyo bayaphendula,

wawuphendula yena uqobo umbuzo:

30 ‘Bayitholile,

futhi ababelani impango, na?

Intombi, yebo,

izintombi ezimbili endodeni;

impango yezinto ezidayiwe kuSisera,

impango yezinto ezidayiwe zahlotshiswa,

iziqephu ezimbili zomsebenzi oyimpango

odayiwe wahlotshiswa,

ongowentamo yami.’

31 “Simakade, sengathi zingabhubha

zonke izitha zakho!

Kodwa abakuthandayo

mabafane nelanga liphuma

ngamandla alo.”

Izwe lalinokuthula iminyaka engama-40.
