Judges 4:16-18
Lexham English Bible
16 But Barak pursued after the chariots[a] and army as far as Harosheth Haggoyim, and all of Sisera’s army fell to the edge of the sword;[b] no one was left.
17 Sisera fled on foot to the tent of Jael, the wife of Heber the Kenite, because there was peace between Jabin king of Hazor and the house of Heber the Kenite. 18 And Jael came out to meet Sisera, and she said to him, “Turn aside, my lord; turn aside to me and do not be afraid.” So he turned aside into her tent, and she covered him with a blanket.[c]
