15 And the Lord discomfited Sis´era, and all his chariots, and all his host, with the edge of the sword before Barak; so that Sis´era lighted down off his chariot, and fled away on his feet.
16 But Barak pursued after the chariots, and after the host, unto Haro´sheth of the Gentiles: and all the host of Sis´era fell upon the edge of the sword; and there was not a man left.
17 Howbeit Sis´era fled away on his feet to the tent of Ja´el the wife of Heber the Kenite: for there was peace between Jabin the king of Hazor and the house of Heber the Kenite.
18 And Ja´el went out to meet Sis´era, and said unto him, Turn in, my lord, turn in to me; fear not. And when he had turned in unto her into the tent, she covered him with a mantle.
19 And he said unto her, Give me, I pray thee, a little water to drink; for I am thirsty. And she opened a bottle of milk, and gave him drink, and covered him.
20 Again he said unto her, Stand in the door of the tent, and it shall be, when any man doth come and inquire of thee, and say, Is there any man here? that thou shalt say, No.
21 Then Ja´el Heber's wife took a nail of the tent, and took a hammer in her hand, and went softly unto him, and smote the nail into his temples, and fastened it into the ground: for he was fast asleep and weary. So he died.
