New Testament

Judges 4:20-24 Modern English Version (MEV)

20. He said to her, “Stand in the entrance to the tent, and if anyone comes and asks you, ‘Is there a man here?’ then you say, ‘No.’ ”

21. Then Jael the wife of Heber took a tent peg and a hammer in her hand and went quietly to him, for he was fast asleep and tired. She drove the tent peg into his temple, and it went down into the ground, so he died.

22. Now as Barak had been chasing Sisera, Jael came out to meet him and said, “Come, and I will show you the man whom you seek.” When he came in, there was Sisera fallen dead with a tent peg in his temple.

23. So God humbled King Jabin of Canaan before the children of Israel that day.

24. The children of Israel grew more and more powerful over King Jabin of Canaan until he was no more.
