Judges 4:11-17

11Now Heber 1the Kenite had separated himself from the Kenites, from the sons of Hobab the father-in-law of Moses, and had pitched his tent as far away as the 2oak in 3Zaanannim, which is near Kedesh.

12Then they told Sisera that Barak the son of Abinoam had gone up to Mount Tabor. 13Sisera called together all his chariots, 4nine hundred iron chariots, and all the people who were with him, from 5Harosheth-hagoyim to the river Kishon. 14Deborah said to Barak, “Arise! For this is the day in which the Lord has given Sisera into your hands; 6behold, 7the Lord has gone out before you.” So Barak went down from Mount Tabor with ten thousand men following him. 158The Lord 9routed Sisera and all his chariots and all his army with the edge of the sword before Barak; and Sisera alighted from his chariot and fled away on foot. 16But Barak pursued the chariots and the army as far as Harosheth-hagoyim, and all the army of Sisera fell by the edge of the sword; 10not even one was left.

17Now Sisera fled away on foot to the tent of Jael the wife of Heber the Kenite, for there was peace between Jabin the king of Hazor and the house of Heber the Kenite.
