And the children{H1121} of Israel{H3478} again{H3254}{(H8686)} did{H6213}{(H8800)} evil{H7451} in the sight{H5869} of the LORD{H3068}, when Ehud{H164} was dead{H4191}{(H8804)}.

And the LORD{H3068} sold{H4376}{(H8799)} them into the hand{H3027} of Jabin{H2985} king{H4428} of Canaan{H3667}, that reigned{H4427}{(H8804)} in Hazor{H2674}; the captain{H8269} of whose host{H6635} was Sisera{H5516}, which dwelt{H3427}{(H8802)} in Harosheth{H2800} of the Gentiles{H1471}.

And the children{H1121} of Israel{H3478} cried{H6817}{(H8799)} unto the LORD{H3068}: for he had nine{H8672} hundred{H3967} chariots{H7393} of iron{H1270}; and twenty{H6242} years{H8141} he mightily{H2394} oppressed{H3905}{(H8804)} the children{H1121} of Israel{H3478}.

And Deborah{H1683}, a prophetess{H5031}, the wife{H802} of Lapidoth{H3941}, she judged{H8199}{(H8802)} Israel{H3478} at that time{H6256}.

And she dwelt{H3427}{(H8802)} under the palm tree{H8560} of Deborah{H1683} between Ramah{H7414} and Bethel{H1008} in mount{H2022} Ephraim{H669}: and the children{H1121} of Israel{H3478} came up{H5927}{(H8799)} to her for judgment{H4941}.

And she sent{H7971}{(H8799)} and called{H7121}{(H8799)} Barak{H1301} the son{H1121} of Abinoam{H42} out of Kedeshnaphtali{H6943}, and said{H559}{(H8799)} unto him, Hath not the LORD{H3068} God{H430} of Israel{H3478} commanded{H6680}{(H8765)}, saying, Go{H3212}{(H8798)} and draw{H4900}{(H8804)} toward mount{H2022} Tabor{H8396}, and take{H3947}{(H8804)} with thee ten{H6235} thousand{H505} men{H376} of the children{H1121} of Naphtali{H5321} and of the children{H1121} of Zebulun{H2074}?

And I will draw{H4900}{(H8804)} unto thee to the river{H5158} Kishon{H7028} Sisera{H5516}, the captain{H8269} of Jabin's{H2985} army{H6635}, with his chariots{H7393} and his multitude{H1995}; and I will deliver{H5414}{(H8804)} him into thine hand{H3027}.

And Barak{H1301} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto her, If thou wilt go{H3212}{(H8799)} with me, then I will go{H1980}{(H8804)}: but if thou wilt not go{H3212}{(H8799)} with me, then I will not go{H3212}{(H8799)}.

And she said{H559}{(H8799)}, I will surely{H1980}{(H8800)} go{H3212}{(H8799)} with thee: notwithstanding{H657} the journey{H1870} that thou takest{H1980}{(H8802)} shall not be for thine honour{H8597}; for the LORD{H3068} shall sell{H4376}{(H8799)} Sisera{H5516} into the hand{H3027} of a woman{H802}. And Deborah{H1683} arose{H6965}{(H8799)}, and went{H3212}{(H8799)} with Barak{H1301} to Kedesh{H6943}.

And Barak{H1301} called{H2199}{(H8686)} Zebulun{H2074} and Naphtali{H5321} to Kedesh{H6943}; and he went up{H5927}{(H8799)} with ten{H6235} thousand{H505} men{H376} at his feet{H7272}: and Deborah{H1683} went up{H5927}{(H8799)} with him.

Now Heber{H2268} the Kenite{H7017}, which was of the children{H1121} of Hobab{H2246} the father in law{H2859}{(H8802)} of Moses{H4872}, had severed{H6504}{(H8737)} himself from the Kenites{H7017}, and pitched{H5186}{(H8799)} his tent{H168} unto the plain{H436} of Zaanaim{H6815}, which is by Kedesh{H6943}.

And they shewed{H5046}{(H8686)} Sisera{H5516} that Barak{H1301} the son{H1121} of Abinoam{H42} was gone up{H5927}{(H8804)} to mount{H2022} Tabor{H8396}.

And Sisera{H5516} gathered together{H2199}{(H8686)} all his chariots{H7393}, even nine{H8672} hundred{H3967} chariots{H7393} of iron{H1270}, and all the people{H5971} that were with him, from Harosheth{H2800} of the Gentiles{H1471} unto the river{H5158} of Kishon{H7028}.

And Deborah{H1683} said{H559}{(H8799)} unto Barak{H1301}, Up{H6965}{(H8798)}; for this is the day{H3117} in which the LORD{H3068} hath delivered{H5414}{(H8804)} Sisera{H5516} into thine hand{H3027}: is not the LORD{H3068} gone out{H3318}{(H8804)} before{H6440} thee? So Barak{H1301} went down{H3381}{(H8799)} from mount{H2022} Tabor{H8396}, and ten{H6235} thousand{H505} men{H376} after{H310} him.

And the LORD{H3068} discomfited{H2000}{(H8799)} Sisera{H5516}, and all his chariots{H7393}, and all his host{H4264}, with the edge{H6310} of the sword{H2719} before{H6440} Barak{H1301}; so that Sisera{H5516} lighted down{H3381}{(H8799)} off his chariot{H4818}, and fled away{H5127}{(H8799)} on his feet{H7272}.

But Barak{H1301} pursued{H7291}{(H8804)} after{H310} the chariots{H7393}, and after the host{H4264}, unto Harosheth{H2800} of the Gentiles{H1471}: and all the host{H4264} of Sisera{H5516} fell{H5307}{(H8799)} upon the edge{H6310} of the sword{H2719}; and there was not a man{H259} left{H7604}{(H8738)}.

Howbeit Sisera{H5516} fled away{H5127}{(H8804)} on his feet{H7272} to the tent{H168} of Jael{H3278} the wife{H802} of Heber{H2268} the Kenite{H7017}: for there was peace{H7965} between Jabin{H2985} the king{H4428} of Hazor{H2674} and the house{H1004} of Heber{H2268} the Kenite{H7017}.

And Jael{H3278} went out{H3318}{(H8799)} to meet{H7125}{(H8800)} Sisera{H5516}, and said{H559}{(H8799)} unto him, Turn in{H5493}{(H8798)}, my lord{H113}, turn in{H5493}{(H8798)} to me; fear{H3372}{(H8799)} not. And when he had turned in{H5493}{(H8799)} unto her into the tent{H168}, she covered{H3680}{(H8762)} him with a mantle{H8063}.

And he said{H559}{(H8799)} unto her, Give me, I pray thee, a little{H4592} water{H4325} to drink{H8248}{(H8685)}; for I am thirsty{H6770}{(H8804)}. And she opened{H6605}{(H8799)} a bottle{H4997} of milk{H2461}, and gave him drink{H8248}{(H8686)}, and covered{H3680}{(H8762)} him.

Again he said{H559}{(H8799)} unto her, Stand in{H5975}{(H8798)} the door{H6607} of the tent{H168}, and it shall be, when any man{H376} doth come{H935}{(H8799)} and enquire{H7592}{(H8804)} of thee, and say{H559}{(H8804)}, Is there{H3426} any man{H376} here{H3426}? that thou shalt say{H559}{(H8804)}, No.

Then Jael{H3278} Heber's{H2268} wife{H802} took{H3947}{(H8799)} a nail{H3489} of the tent{H168}, and took{H7760}{(H8799)} an hammer{H4718} in her hand{H3027}, and went{H935}{(H8799)} softly{H3814} unto him, and smote{H8628}{(H8799)} the nail{H3489} into his temples{H7541}, and fastened{H6795}{(H8799)} it into the ground{H776}: for he was fast asleep{H7290}{(H8738)} and weary{H5774}{(H8799)}. So he died{H4191}{(H8799)}.

And, behold, as Barak{H1301} pursued{H7291}{(H8802)} Sisera{H5516}, Jael{H3278} came out{H3318}{(H8799)} to meet{H7125}{(H8800)} him, and said{H559}{(H8799)} unto him, Come{H3212}{(H8798)}, and I will shew{H7200}{(H8686)} thee the man{H376} whom thou seekest{H1245}{(H8764)}. And when he came{H935}{(H8799)} into her tent, behold, Sisera{H5516} lay{H5307}{(H8802)} dead{H4191}{(H8801)}, and the nail{H3489} was in his temples{H7541}.

So God{H430} subdued{H3665}{(H8686)} on that day{H3117} Jabin{H2985} the king{H4428} of Canaan{H3667} before{H6440} the children{H1121} of Israel{H3478}.

And the hand{H3027} of the children{H1121} of Israel{H3478} prospered{H3212}{(H8799)}{H1980}{(H8800)}, and prevailed{H7186} against Jabin{H2985} the king{H4428} of Canaan{H3667}, until they had destroyed{H3772}{(H8689)} Jabin{H2985} king{H4428} of Canaan{H3667}.
