1After Ehud’s death, the Israelites again did what was evil in the LORD’s sight.

2So the LORD handed them over to King Jabin of Hazor, a Canaanite king. The commander of his army was Sisera, who lived in Harosheth–haggoyim.

3Sisera, who had nine hundred iron chariots, ruthlessly oppressed the Israelites for twenty years. Then the Israelites cried out to the LORD for help.

4Deborah, the wife of Lappidoth, was a prophet who had become a judge in Israel.

5She would hold court under the Palm of Deborah, which stood between Ramah and Bethel in the hill country of Ephraim, and the Israelites came to her to settle their disputes.

6One day she sent for Barak son of Abinoam, who lived in Kedesh in the land of Naphtali. She said to him, "This is what the LORD, the God of Israel, commands you: Assemble ten thousand warriors from the tribes of Naphtali and Zebulun at Mount Tabor.

7I will lure Sisera, commander of Jabin’s army, along with his chariots and warriors, to the Kishon River. There I will give you victory over him."

8Barak told her, "I will go, but only if you go with me!"

9"Very well," she replied, "I will go with you. But since you have made this choice, you will receive no honor. For the LORD’s victory over Sisera will be at the hands of a woman." So Deborah went with Barak to Kedesh.

10At Kedesh, Barak called together the tribes of Zebulun and Naphtali, and ten thousand warriors marched up with him. Deborah also marched with them.

11Now Heber the Kenite, a descendant of Moses’ brother–in–law Hobab, had moved away from the other members of his tribe and pitched his tent by the Oak of Zaanannim, near Kedesh.

12When Sisera was told that Barak son of Abinoam had gone up to Mount Tabor,

13he called for all nine hundred of his iron chariots and all of his warriors, and they marched from Harosheth–haggoyim to the Kishon River.

14Then Deborah said to Barak, "Get ready! Today the LORD will give you victory over Sisera, for the LORD is marching ahead of you." So Barak led his ten thousand warriors down the slopes of Mount Tabor into battle.

15When Barak attacked, the LORD threw Sisera and all his charioteers and warriors into a panic. Then Sisera leaped down from his chariot and escaped on foot.

16Barak chased the enemy and their chariots all the way to Harosheth–haggoyim, killing all of Sisera’s warriors. Not a single one was left alive.

17Meanwhile, Sisera ran to the tent of Jael, the wife of Heber the Kenite, because Heber’s family was on friendly terms with King Jabin of Hazor.

18Jael went out to meet Sisera and said to him, "Come into my tent, sir. Come in. Don’t be afraid." So he went into her tent, and she covered him with a blanket.

19"Please give me some water," he said. "I’m thirsty." So she gave him some milk to drink and covered him again.

20"Stand at the door of the tent," he told her. "If anybody comes and asks you if there is anyone here, say no."

21But when Sisera fell asleep from exhaustion, Jael quietly crept up to him with a hammer and tent peg. Then she drove the tent peg through his temple and into the ground, and so he died.

22When Barak came looking for Sisera, Jael went out to meet him. She said, "Come, and I will show you the man you are looking for." So he followed her into the tent and found Sisera lying there dead, with the tent peg through his temple.

23So on that day Israel saw God subdue Jabin, the Canaanite king.

24And from that time on Israel became stronger and stronger against King Jabin, until they finally destroyed him.
