Judges 4:22

---

← Judges 4:21	Judges 4:22 (KJV)	Judges 4:23 →
Then Jael Heber's wife took a nail of the tent, and took an hammer in her hand, and went softly unto him, and smote the nail into his temples, and fastened it into the ground: for he was fast asleep and weary. So he died.	And, behold, as Barak pursued Sisera, Jael came out to meet him, and said unto him, Come, and I will shew thee the man whom thou seekest. And when he came into her [tent], behold, Sisera lay dead, and the nail [was] in his temples.	So God subdued on that day Jabin the king of Canaan before the children of Israel.
