24“Most blessed of women is Jael,
         The wife of Heber the Kenite;
         Most blessed is she of women in the tent.

25“He asked for water and she gave him milk;
         In a magnificent bowl she brought him curds.

26“She reached out her hand for the tent peg,
         And her right hand for the workmen’s hammer.
         Then she struck Sisera, she smashed his head;
         And she shattered and pierced his temple.

27“Between her feet he bowed, he fell, he lay;
         Between her feet he bowed, he fell;
         Where he bowed, there he fell dead.

28“Out of the window she looked and lamented,
         The mother of Sisera through the lattice,
         ‘Why does his chariot delay in coming?
         Why do the hoofbeats of his chariots tarry?’

29“Her wise princesses would answer her,
         Indeed she repeats her words to herself,

30‘Are they not finding, are they not dividing the spoil?
         A maiden, two maidens for every warrior;
         To Sisera a spoil of dyed work,
         A spoil of dyed work embroidered,
         Dyed work of double embroidery on the neck of the spoiler?’

31“Thus let all Your enemies perish, O LORD;
         But let those who love Him be like the rising of the sun in its might.”
         And the land was undisturbed for forty years.
