24Most blessedH1288 among womenH802 is JaelH3278, the wifeH802 of HeberH2268 the KeniteH7017, most blessedH1288 of tent-dwellingH168 womenH802.25He asked forH7592 waterH4325, and she gave himH5414 milkH2461. In a magnificentH117 bowlH5602 she brought himH7126 curdsH2529.26She reachedH7971 for the tent pegH3489, her rightH3225 handH3027 for the workman’sH6001 hammerH1989. She struckH1986 SiseraH5516 and crushedH4277 his skullH7218; she shatteredH4272 and piercedH2498 his templeH7541.27AtH996 her feetH7272 he collapsedH3766, he fellH5307, there he lay stillH7901; atH996 her feetH7272 he collapsedH3766, he fellH5307; whereH834 he collapsedH3766, thereH8033 he fellH5307 deadH7703.
