Hakim-hakim 4:17-18

4:17 Now Sisera ran away on foot to the tent of Jael, wife of Heber the Kenite, for King Jabin of Hazor ¹  and the family of Heber the Kenite had made a peace treaty. ²  4:18 Jael came out to welcome Sisera. She said to him, “Stop and rest, ³  my lord. Stop and rest with me. Don’t be afraid.” So Sisera ⁴  stopped to rest in her tent, and she put a blanket over him.
