4:14 And Deborah 1683 said 559 z8799 vnto x413 Barak, 1301 Up, 6965 z8798 for x3588 this x2088 [is] the day 3117 in which x834 the LORD 3068 hath deliuered 5414 z8804 x853 Sisera 5516 into thine hand: 3027 Is not x3808 the LORD 3068 gone out 3318 z8804 before 6440 thee? so Barak 1301 went downe 3381 z8799 from mount 2022 x4480 Tabor, 8396 and ten 6235 thousand 505 men 376 after 310 him.

4:15 And the LORD 3068 discomfited 2000 z8799 x853 Sisera, 5516 and all x3605 his charets, 7393 and all x3605 his hoste 4264 with the edge 6310 of the sword, 2719 before 6440 Barak: 1301 so that Sisera 5516 lighted downe 3381 z8799 off x4480 x5921 his charet, 4818 and fled away 5127 z8799 on his feet. 7272

4:16 But Barak 1301 pursued 7291 z8804 after 310 the charets, 7393 and after x310 the hoste 4264 vnto x5704 Harosheth y2800 of the Gentiles, y1471 x2800 and all x3605 the host 4264 of Sisera 5516 fell 5307 z8799 vpon the edge 6310 of the sword; 2719 [and] there was not x3808 a man 259 left. 7604 z8738

4:18 ¶ And Iael 3278 went out 3318 z8799 to meete 7125 z8800 Sisera, 5516 and said 559 z8799 vnto x413 him, Turne in, 5493 z8798 my lord, 113 turne in 5493 z8798 to x413 me, feare 3372 z8799 not. x408 And when hee had turned in 5493 z8799 vnto x413 her, into the tent, 168 shee couered 3680 z8762 him with a mantle. 8063

4:19 And he said 559 z8799 vnto x413 her, Giue me, I pray thee, x4994 a litle 4592 water 4325 to drinke, 8248 z8685 for x3588 I am thirstie. 6770 z8804 And she opened 6605 z8799 x853 a bottle 4997 of milke, 2461 and gaue him drinke, 8248 z8686 and couered 3680 z8762 him.

4:20 Againe he said 559 z8799 vnto x413 her, Stand x5975 in y5975 z8798 the doore 6607 of the tent, 168 and it shall bee x1961 when x518 any man 376 doeth come 935 z8799 and enquire 7592 z8804 of thee and say, 559 z8804 Is x3426 there y3426 z0 any man 376 here? y3426 x6311 that thou shalt say, 559 z8804 No. x369

4:21 Then Iael 3278 Hebers 2268 wife, 802 tooke 3947 z8799 x853 a naile 3489 of the tent, 168 and tooke 7760 z8799 x853 an hammer 4718 in her hand, 3027 and went 935 z8799 softly 3814 vnto x413 him, and smote 8628 z8799 x853 the naile 3489 into his temples, y7541 x7451 and fastened 6795 z8799 it into the ground: 776 (for he x1931 was fast asleepe, 7290 z8738 and weary;) 5774 z8799 so he died. 4191 z8799

4:22 And behold, x2009 as Barak 1301 pursued 7291 z8802 x853 Sisera, 5516 Iael 3278 came out 3318 z8799 to meet 7125 z8800 him, and said 559 z8799 vnto him, Come, y3212 z8798 x1980 and I will shew 7200 z8686 thee x853 the man 376 whom x834 thou x859 seekest. 1245 z8764 And when he came 935 z8799 into x413 her [tent], behold, x2009 Sisera 5516 lay 5307 z8802 dead, 4191 z8801 and the naile 3489 [was] in his temples. y7541 x7451

4:23 So God 430 subdued 3665 z8686 on that x1931 day, 3117 x853 Iabin 2985 the king 4428 of Canaan, 3667 before 6440 the children 1121 of Israel. 3478

4:24 And the hand 3027 of the children 1121 of Israel 3478 prospered, 1980 y3212 z8799 z8800 & preuailed 7186 x1980 against x5921 Iabin 2985 the king 4428 of Canaan, 3667 vntill x5704 x834 they had destroyed 3772 z8689 x853 Iabin 2985 king 4428 of Canaan. 3667
