Amplified Bible
Judges 5:24-30
24“Most blessed of women is Jael, The wife of Heber the Kenite; Most blessed is she of women in the tent.
25Sisera asked for water and she gave him milk; She brought him curds in a magnificent bowl.
26She reached out her [left] hand for the tent peg, And her right hand for the workmen’s hammer. Then she struck Sisera, she smashed his head; And she shattered and pierced his temple.
27He bowed, he fell, he lay [still] at her feet; At her feet he bowed, he fell; Where he bowed, there he fell dead.
28“Out of the window she looked down and lamented (cried out in a shrill voice), The mother of Sisera through the lattice, ‘Why is his chariot delayed in coming? Why have the hoofbeats of his chariots delayed?’
29Her wise ladies answered her, Indeed, she repeated her words to herself,
30‘Are they not finding and dividing the spoil? A maiden (concubine) or two for every man; A spoil of dyed garments for Sisera, A spoil of dyed garments embroidered, Two pieces of dyed garments embroidered for the neck of the plunderer?’
