Ingoma KaDibhora
1 Ngalolosuku uDibhora loBharakhi indodana ka-Abhinowami bahlabela ingoma le:
2 “Lapho amakhosana ko-Israyeli esekhokhela,
lapho abantu bezinikela ngokuzithandela,
dumisani uThixo!
3 Zwanini lokhu lina makhosi! Lalelani lina babusi!
Ngizahlabelela kuThixo,
ngizahlabelela;
ngizahubela ihubo,
kuThixouNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli.
4 Awu Thixo, ekuqhamukeni kwakho eSeyiri,
lapho usuka elizweni lase-Edomi,
umhlaba wanyikinyeka, amazulu athululeka,
amayezi athululela amanzi phansi.
5 Izintaba zazamazama phambi kukaThixo, yena owaseSinayi,
phambi kukaThixo, uNkulunkulu ka-Israyeli.
6 Ensukwini zikaShamigari indodana ka-Anathi,
ensukwini zikaJayeli, imigwaqo yayideliwe;
izihambi zithatha izindledlana ezimazombe.
7 Izakhamizi zako-Israyeli kazizange zilwe,
zahlehlela emuva kwaze kwavela mina Dibhora,
kwavela umama ko-Israyeli.
8 UNkulunkulu wakhetha abakhokheli abatsha
lapho impi isifike emasangweni edolobho,
kodwa akulahawu kumbe umkhonto owabonakalayo
phakathi kwezinkulungwane ezingamatshumi amane ko-Israyeli.
9 Inhliziyo yami ikanye lamakhosana ako-Israyeli,
kanye labazinikela ngokuzithandela phakathi kwabantu.
Dumisani uThixo!
10 Lina eligada obabhemi abamhlophe,
lihlezi ezihlalweni zenu zengubo,
lani elihamba emgwaqweni
cabangani 11 ilizwi labahlabeleli ezindaweni zamanzi okunathisa.
Bahuba ngokulunga kukaThixo,
ukunqoba kwezakhamizi zako-Israyeli.
Lapho-ke abantu bakaThixo
behlela emasangweni edolobho.
12 ‘Vuka, vuka, Dibhora!
Vuka, vuka, uhlabele ingoma!
Vuka weBharakhi!
Uthumbe abathunjiweyo bakho, wena ndodana ka-Abhinowami.’
13 Ngakho abantu ababesele bafika ezikhulwini;
abantu bakaThixo beza kimi labalamandla.
14 Abanye bavela ko-Efrayimi, abamdabuko wabo use-Amaleki;
uBhenjamini wayelabantu abakulandelayo.
Izinduna zamabutho zavela eMakhiri,
koZebhuluni labo abaphatha intonga yomlawuli webutho.
15 Amakhosana ako-Isakhari ayeloDibhora;
yebo, u-Isakhari wayeloBharakhi
emxhuma ngesiqubu ezigodini.
Eziqintini zakoRubheni
kwaba lokuhlolwa okukhulu kwezinhliziyo.
16 Lahlalelani ezibayeni
ukuzwa amakhwelo enqanda izimvu na?
Eziqintini zakoRubheni,
kwaba lokuhlolwa okukhulu kwezinhliziyo.
17 UGiliyadi wahlala ngaphetsheya kweJodani.
LoDani wasalelani ngasemikhunjini na?
U-Asheri wasala ngasokhunjini
wahlala emathekwini akhe olwandle.
18 Abantu bakoZebhuluni bafaka impilo yabo uqobo engozini;
wenza njalo loNafithali emiqolweni yeganga.
19 Amakhosi afika, alwa;
amakhosi aseKhenani alwa,
eThanakhi ngasemachibini aseMegido,
kodwa kawazathwala isiliva, lempango.
20 Izinkanyezi zalwa zisemazulwini,
zalwa loSisera zisezindleleni zazo.
21 Umfula uKhishoni wabakhukhula,
umfula wendulo, umfula uKhishoni.
Phambili, mphefumulo wami; Qina!
22 Kwaduma amasondo amabhiza ematha,
ematha ehamba amabhiza akhe alamandla.
23 ‘Iqalekiseni iMerozi,’ kwatsho ingilosi kaThixo,
‘Baqalekiseni kabuhlungu abantu bayo,
ngoba kabezanga ukuzencedisa uThixo,
ukuzasiza uThixo emelane labalamandla.’
24 Kabe ngobusiswe kakhulu kwabesifazane uJayeli,
umkaHebheri umKheni,
obusiswe kakhulu kwabesifazane abahlala emathenteni.
25 Wacela amanzi, yena wamnika uchago,
wamlethela amasi ngomganu ofanele izikhulu.
26 Wathatha isikhonkwane sethente ngesandla sakhe,
isandla sakhe sokudla sathatha isando somkhandi.
Watshaya uSisera, wachoboza ikhanda lakhe,
waphahaza wabhoboza inhlafuno yakhe.
27 Wawohlokela ezinyaweni zakhe,
wawa; wabhazalala khonapho.
Wawohlokela ezinyaweni zakhe wawa;
lapho awohlokela khona, wawela khonapho esefile.
28 UnakaSisera walunguza ngefasitela;
ngemva kwewindi wanqolonga wathi,
‘Kungani inqola yakhe yempi iphuze kangaka ukufika?
Kungani ukugodlozela kwezinqola zakhe zempi kuphuzile?’
29 Ohlakaniphe kakhulu kumakhosazana akhe wamphendula;
impela yena uhlezi ezitshela esithi,
30 ‘Kanti kabafumani mpango bayabelane na;
intombazana loba amabili indoda nganye,
izigqoko ezimibalabala eziyimpango kaSisera,
izigqoko ezimibalabala ezicecisiweyo,
izigqoko eziceciswe kakhulu zentamo yami,
konke lokhu kuyimpango?’
31 Ngakho sengathi zingabhubha zonke izitha zakho, Oh Thixo!
Kodwa sengathi labo abakuthandayo bangaba njengelanga
lapho liphuma ngamandla alo.”
Kwasekusiba lokuthula elizweni iminyaka engamatshumi amane.
