¹ Ehudi amaze gupfa, Abayisraheli bongera gukora ibidatunganiye Uhoraho.

² Uhoraho abagabiza Yabini, umwami wa Kanahani, wari uganje i Hasori. Umugaba w’ingabo ze yari Sisera, ariko we yari atuye i Harosheti‐Goyimu.

³ Abayisraheli batakambira Uhoraho, kuko Sisera yari afite amagare y’intambara magana cyenda kandi akaba yarakandamije cyane Abayisraheli, mu gihe cy’imyaka makumyabiri yose.

⁴ Icyo gihe, umuhanuzikazi Debora, muka Lapidoti, yategekaga Israheli.

⁵ Yakundaga kwiyicarira mu nsi y’Umukindo wa Debora, hagati ya Rama na Beteli, mu misozi miremire ya Efurayimu, maze Abayisraheli bakajya bazamuka bakahamusanga, kugira ngo abacire imanza.

⁶ Nuko Debora ahamagaza Baraki, mwene Ahinowamu, w’i Kedeshi ya Nefutali, maze aramubwira ati «Uhoraho, Imana ya Israheli, yagutegetse ngo: Genda ufate abantu ibihumbi cumi muri bene Nefutali no muri bene Zabuloni, ubakoranyirize ku musozi wa Taboru.

⁷ Nanjye nzagusangisha Sisera, umugaba w’ingabo za Yabini, ku mugezi wa Kishoni, ndetse n’amagare ye n’ingabo ze, maze nzamwegurire ibiganza byawe.»

⁸ Baraki aramusubiza ati «Nitujyana nzagenda, ariko nitutajyana nawe sinzagenda.»

⁹ Debora aravuga ati «Nuko rero tuzajyana, ariko ikuzo ntirizaba iryawe, kuko ari umugore Uhoraho yahaye gutsinda Sisera.» Debora arahaguruka, ajyana na Baraki i Kedeshi.

¹⁰ Bukeye, Baraki ahamagaza Zabuloni na Nefutali i Kedeshi. Abantu ibihumbi cumi bazamukana na we, na Debora barajyana.

¹¹ Ariko Heberi w’Umukeniti yari yaritandukanyije na Kayini wo muri bene Hobabu, sebukwe wa Musa, kandi yari yarashinze ihema rye iruhande rw’igiti cy’umushishi cy’i Sanayimu, bugufi ya Kedeshi.

¹² Bamenyesha Sisera ko Baraki mwene Ahinowamu yazamutse ku musozi wa Taboru.

¹³ Nuko Sisera akoranyiriza i Harosheti‐Goyimu amagare ye y’intambara yose, uko ari magana cyenda, hamwe n’imbaga ye yose, maze abajyana ku mugezi wa Kishoni.

¹⁴ Debora abwira Baraki, ati «Haguruka, kuko uyu munsi ari bwo Uhoraho akugabije Sisera. Ni koko, Uhoraho arakugenda imbere.» Baraki amanuka ku musozi wa Taboru n’abantu ibihumbi cumi bamukurikiye.

¹⁵ Nuko Uhoraho atatanyiriza Sisera, n’amagare ye, n’ingabo ze imbere ya Baraki. Sisera ava ku igare rye, ahunga agenza ibirenge.

¹⁶ Baraki akurikirana amagare n’ingabo kugera i Harosheti‐Goyimu; ingabo zose za Sisera azimarira ku nkota; ntiyasigaza n’umwe.

¹⁷ Ubwo Sisera yahungaga agenza ibirenge, yerekeje ku ihema rya Yayeli, muka Heberi w’Umukeniti, kuko Yabini, umwami wa Hasori, yari afitanye ubwumvikane n’inzu ya Heberi w’Umukeniti.

¹⁸ Yayeli arasohoka asanganira Sisera, maze aramubwira ati «Mutegetsi wanjye, hagarara uruhukire iwanjye, kandi ntugire ubwoba.» Nuko Sisera yinjira mu ihema rye, naho undi amworosa ikiringiti.

¹⁹ Sisera aramubwira ati «Ndakwinginze ngo umpe utuzi, kuko inyota inyishe.» Uwo mugore apfundura igicuba cy’amata aramuha aranywa, nuko arongera aramworosa.

²⁰ Sisera aramubwira ati «Hagarara hano ku muryango w’ihema, maze nihagira umuntu uza akakubaza ati ’Hari umuntu uri hano?’, umusubize uti ’Nta we’.»

²¹ Ariko Yayeli, muka Heberi, afata urubambo rw’ihema n’inyundo, amwinjirana yitonze maze amushingira urubambo mu musaya, ruragenda rwishita ku butaka; Sisera wari unaniwe yari asinziriye cyane, nuko ahita apfa.

²² Ubwo Baraki aratunguka, agikurikiranye Sisera! Yayeli arasohoka ajya kumusanganira, maze aramubwira ati «Ngwino nkwereke umuntu washakaga.» Nuko barinjirana maze Baraki abona Sisera aho arambaraye yapfuye, urubambo rumushise mu musaya.

²³ Uwo munsi Uhoraho acogoza Yabini, umwami wa Kanahani, imbere y’Abayisraheli.

²⁴ Nuko Abayisraheli bamaze gukomera barwanya Yabini, umwami wa Kanahani, kugeza ubwo bamutsinze.
