Use gparted from a live image (DVD, USB stick). Shrink 5 and then make a new 6 of type swap, and add it to fstab so there are 2 swap partitions -- both will be used. Hibernate will only use one, but the image is compressed, so chances are good that the first one will be enough. You can instead shrink 5 and then 4 and move them up and then enlarge 3, but it will take a lot longer. ...
