Judges 4:1 (NASB) New American Standard Bible

1 After Ehud's death, however, the Israelites again offended the LORD.
2 So the LORD allowed them to fall into the power of the Canaanite king, Jabin, who reigned in Hazor. The general of his army was Sisera, who dwelt in Harosheth-ha-goiim.
3 But the Israelites cried out to the LORD; for with his nine hundred iron chariots he sorely oppressed the Israelites for twenty years.
4 At this time the prophetess Deborah, wife of Lappidoth, was judging Israel.
5 She used to sit under Deborah's palm tree, situated between Ramah and Bethel in the mountain region of Ephraim, and there the Israelites came up to her for judgment.
6 She sent and summoned Barak, son of Abinoam, from Kedesh of Naphtali. "This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, commands," she said to him; "go, march on Mount Tabor, and take with you ten thousand Naphtalites and Zebulunites.
7 I will lead Sisera, the general of Jabin's army, out to you at the Wadi Kishon, together with his chariots and troops, and will deliver them into your power."
8 But Barak answered her, "If you come with me, I will go; if you do not come with me, I will not go."
9 "I will certainly go with you," she replied, "but you shall not gain the glory in the expedition on which you are setting out, for the LORD will have Sisera fall into the power of a woman." So Deborah joined Barak and journeyed with him to Kedesh.
10 Barak summoned Zebulun and Naphtali to Kedesh, and ten thousand men followed him. Deborah also went up with him.
11 Now the Kenite Heber had detached himself from his own people, the descendants of Hobab, Moses' brother-in-law, and had pitched his tent by the tere-binth of Zaanannim, which was near Kedesh.
12 It was reported to Sisera that Barak, son of Abinoam, had gone up to Mount Tabor.
13 So Sisera assembled from Harosheth-ha-goiim at the Wadi Kishon all nine hundred of his iron chariots and all his forces.
14 Deborah then said to Barak, "Be off, for this is the day on which the LORD has delivered Sisera into your power. The LORD marches before you." So Barak went down Mount Tabor, followed by his ten thousand men.
15 And the LORD put Sisera and all his chariots and all his forces to rout before Barak. Sisera himself dismounted from his chariot and fled on foot.
16 Barak, however, pursued the chariots and the army as far as Harosheth-ha-goiim. The entire army of Sisera fell beneath the sword, not even one man surviving.
17 Sisera, in the meantime, had fled on foot to the tent of Jael, wife of the Kenite Heber, since Jabin, king of Hazor, and the family of the Kenite Heber were at peace with one another.
18 Jael went out to meet Sisera and said to him, "Come in, my lord, come in with me; do not be afraid." So he went into her tent, and she covered him with a rug.
19 He said to her, "Please give me a little water to drink. I am thirsty." But she opened a jug of milk for him to drink, and then covered him over.
20 "Stand at the entrance of the tent," he said to her. "If anyone comes and asks, 'Is there someone here?' say, 'No!'"
21 Instead Jael, wife of Heber, got a tent peg and took a mallet in her hand. While Sisera was sound asleep, she stealthily approached him and drove the peg through his temple down into the ground, so that he perished in death.
22 Then when Barak came in pursuit of Sisera, Jael went out to meet him and said to him, "Come, I will show you the man you seek." So he went in with her, and there lay Sisera dead, with the tent peg through his temple.
23 Thus on that day God humbled the Canaanite king, Jabin, before the Israelites;
24 their power weighed ever heavier upon him, till at length they destroyed the Canaanite king, Jabin.
1 And the children H1121 of Israel H3478 again H3254 did H6213 L-VQFC evil H7451 in the sight H5869 B-CMP of the LORD H3068 EDS , when Ehud H261 was dead H4191 .
2 And the LORD H3068 EDS sold H4376 them into the hand H3027 B-CFS of Jabin H2985 king H4428 NMS of Canaan H3667 LMS , that H834 RPRO reigned H4427 in Hazor H2674 ; the captain H8269 of whose host H6635 was Sisera H5516 , which H1931 W-PPRO-3MS dwelt H3427 VQPMS in Harosheth of the Gentiles H2800 .
3 And the children H1121 of Israel H3478 cried H6817 unto H413 PREP the LORD H3068 EDS : for H3588 CONJ he had nine H8672 BMS hundred H3967 BFP chariots H7393 of iron H1270 NMS ; and twenty H6242 years H8141 NFS he H1931 W-PPRO-3MS mightily H2393 oppressed H3905 the children H1121 of Israel H3478 .
4 And Deborah H1683 , a prophetess H5031 , the wife H802 NFS of Lapidoth H3941 , she H1931 PPRO-3FS judged H8199 Israel H3478 at that H1931 PPRO-3FS time H6256 .
5 And she H1931 dwelt H3427 under H8478 PREP the palm tree H8560 of Deborah H1683 between H996 PREP Ramah H7414 and Bethel H1008 LFS in mount H2022 Ephraim H669 : and the children H1121 of Israel H3478 came up H5927 to H413 PREP-3FS her for judgment H4941 .
6 And she sent H7971 and called H7121 W-VQY2MS Barak H1301 the son H1121 of Abinoam H42 out of Kedesh H6943 - naphtali , and said H559 W-VQY3FS unto H413 PREP-3MS him , Hath not H3808 I-NADV the LORD H3068 EDS God H430 of Israel H3478 commanded H6680 VPQ3MS , saying , Go H1980 VQI2MS and draw H4900 toward mount H2022 Tabor H8396 , and take H3947 with H5973 PREP-2MS thee ten H6235 thousand H505 MMP men H376 NMS of the children H1121 of Naphtali H5321 and of the children H1121 of Zebulun H2074 ?
7 And I will draw H4900 unto H413 PREP thee to H413 PREP the river H5158 NMS Kishon H7028 Sisera H5516 , the captain H8269 of Jabin H2985 \'s army H6635 , with his chariots H7393 and his multitude H1995 ; and I will deliver H5414 him into thine hand H3027 .
8 And Barak H1301 said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP-3FS her , If H518 PART thou wilt go H1980 with H5973 me , then I will go H1980 : but if H518 PART thou wilt not H3808 NADV go H1980 with H5973 me , then I will not H3808 NADV go H1980 .
9 And she said H559 W-VQY3FS , I will surely go H1980 with H5973 PREP-2FS thee : notwithstanding H3808 NADV the journey H1870 D-NMS that H834 RPRO thou H859 PPRO-2MS takest H1980 VQY1MS shall not H3808 NADV be H1961 for thine honor H8597 ; for H3588 CONJ the LORD H3068 EDS shall sell H4376 Sisera H5516 into the hand H3027 B-CFS of a woman H802 NFS . And Deborah H1683 arose H6965 , and went H1980 VQPMS with H5973 PREP Barak H1301 to Kedesh H6943 .
10 And Barak H1301 called H2199 W-VHY3MS Zebulun H2074 and Naphtali H5321 to Kedesh H6943 ; and he went up H5927 W-VHY3MS with ten H6235 thousand H505 BMP men H376 NMS at his feet H7272 B-CFD-3MS : and Deborah H1683 went up H5927 W-VHY2MS with H5973 PREP-3MS him .
11 Now Heber H2268 the Kenite H7014 , which was of the children H1121 of Hobab H2246 the father H2859 - in - law of Moses H4872 , had severed himself H6504 from the Kenites H7017 , and pitched H5186 W-VQY3MS his tent H168 unto H5704 PREP the plain H436 CMS of Zaanaim H6815 , which H834 RPRO is by H854 PREP Kedesh H6943 .
12 And they showed H5046 Sisera H5516 that H3588 CONJ Barak H1301 the son H1121 of Abinoam H42 was gone up H5927 to mount H2022 CMS Tabor H8396 .
13 And Sisera H5516 gathered together H2199 W-VHY3MS all H3605 NMS his chariots H7393 , even nine H8672 BMS hundred H3967 BFP chariots H7393 of iron H1270 NMS , and all H3605 NMS the people H5971 that H834 RPRO were with H854 PREP-3MS him , from Harosheth of the Gentiles H2800 unto H413 PREP the river H5158 NMS of Kishon H7028 .
14 And Deborah H1683 said H559 W-VQY3FS unto H413 PREP Barak H1301 , Up H6965 VQI2MS ; for H3588 CONJ this H2088 DPRO is the day H3117 D-AMS in which H834 RPRO the LORD H3068 EDS hath delivered H5414 VQQ3MS Sisera H5516 into thine hand H3027 B-CFS-2MS : is not H3808 I-NADV the LORD H3068 EDS gone out H3318 VQQ3MS before H6440 L-CMP-2MS thee ? So Barak H1301 went down H3381 W-VQY3MS from mount H2022 Tabor H8396 , and ten H6235 thousand H505 MMP men H376 NMS after H310 him .
15 And the LORD H3068 EDS discomfited H2000 Sisera H5516 , and all H3605 NMS his chariots H7393 , and all H3605 NMS his host H4264 , with the edge H6310 L-CMS of the sword H2719 GFS before H6440 L-CMP Barak H1301 ; so that Sisera H5516 lighted down H3381 W-VQY3MS off H5921 M-PREP his chariot H4818 , and fled away H5127 on his feet H7272 .
16 But Barak H1301 pursued H7291 after H310 PREP the chariots H7393 , and after H310 the host H4264 , unto H5704 PREP Harosheth of the Gentiles H2800 : and all H3605 NMS the host H4264 of Sisera H5516 fell H5307 W-VQY3MS upon the edge H6310 L-CMS of the sword H2719 GFS ; and there was not H3808 NADV a man H259 ONUM left H7604 VNQ3MS .
17 Howbeit Sisera H5516 fled away H5127 on his feet H7272 B-CFD-3MS to H413 PREP the tent H168 NMS of Jael H3278 the wife H802 CFS of Heber H2268 the Kenite H7017 : for H3588 CONJ there was peace H7965 NMS between H996 PREP Jabin H2985 the king H4428 NMS of Hazor H2674 and the house H1004 CMS of Heber H2268 the Kenite H7017 .
18 And Jael H3278 went out H3318 to meet H7125 L-VQFC Sisera H5516 , and said H559 W-VQY3FS unto H413 PREP-3MS him , Turn in H5493 , my lord H113 , turn in H5493 to H413 PREP-1MS me ; fear H3372 not H408 NPAR . And when he had turned in H5493 W-VHY3MS unto H413 PREP-3FS her into the tent H168 , she covered H3680 him with a mantle H8063 .
19 And he said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP-3FS her , Give me , I pray thee H4994 IJEC , a little H4592 AMS water H4325 OMD to drink H8248 ; for H3588 CONJ I am thirsty H6770 . And she opened H6605 a bottle H4997 of milk H2461 , and gave him drink H8248 , and covered H3680 him .
20 Again he said H559 W-VQY3MS unto H413 PREP-3FS her , Stand H5975 VQI2MS in the door H6607 CMS of the tent H168 , and it shall be H1961 W-VQQ3MS , when H518 PART any man H376 NMS doth come H935 VQY3MS and inquire H7592 of thee , and say H559 W-VQY3MS , Is H3426 there any man H376 NMS here H6311 ADV ? that thou shalt say H559 W-VQY3MS , No H369 .
21 Then Jael H3278 Heber H2268 \'s wife H802 CFS took H3947 W-VQY3FS a nail H3489 of the tent H168 , and took H7760 a hammer H4718 in her hand H3027 , and went H935 W-VQY3FS softly H3814 unto H413 PREP-3MS him , and smote H8628 the nail H3489 into his temples H7451 , and fastened H6795 it into the ground H776 B-NFS : for he H1931 W-PPRO-3MS was fast asleep H7290 VNPMS and weary H5774 . So he died H4191 W-VQY3MS .
22 And , behold H2009 IJEC , as Barak H1301 pursued H7291 Sisera H5516 , Jael H3278 came out H3318 to meet H7125 L-VQFC-3MS him , and said H559 W-VQY3FS unto him , Come H1980 VQI2MS , and I will show H7200 thee the man H376 D-NMS whom H834 RPRO thou H859 PPRO-2MS seekest H1245 . And when he came H935 W-VQY3MS into H413 PREP-3FS her tent , behold H2009 IJEC , Sisera H5516 lay H5307 VQPMS dead H4191 , and the nail H3489 was in his temples H7451 .
23 So God H430 EDP subdued H3665 on that H1931 D-PPRO-3MS day H3117 B-AMS Jabin H2985 the king H4428 NMS of Canaan H3667 EMS before H6440 L-CMP the children H1121 of Israel H3478 LMS .
24 And the hand H3027 CFS of the children H1121 of Israel H3478 prospered H1980 W-VQQ3FS , and prevailed H7186 against H5921 PREP Jabin H2985 the king H4428 NMS of Canaan H3667 EMS , until H5704 PREP they had destroyed H3772 Jabin H2985 king H4428 NMS of Canaan H3667 LMS .
