English Standard Version
Judges 5:24-30
24"Most blessed of women be Jael, the wife of Heber the Kenite, of tent-dwelling women most blessed.
25He asked for water and she gave him milk; she brought him curds in a noble's bowl.
26She sent her hand to the tent peg and her right hand to the workmen's mallet; she struck Sisera; she crushed his head; she shattered and pierced his temple.
27Between her feet he sank, he fell, he lay still; between her feet he sank, he fell; where he sank, there he fell—dead.
28"Out of the window she peered, the mother of Sisera wailed through the lattice: 'Why is his chariot so long in coming? Why tarry the hoofbeats of his chariots?'
29Her wisest princesses answer, indeed, she answers herself,
30'Have they not found and divided the spoil?— A womb or two for every man; spoil of dyed materials for Sisera, spoil of dyed materials embroidered, two pieces of dyed work embroidered for the neck as spoil?'
