"Most blessed among women is Jael, / The wife of Heber the Kenite; / Blessed is she among women in tents. / He asked for water, she gave milk; / She brought out cream in a lordly bowl. / She stretched her hand to the tent peg, / Her right hand to the workmen’s hammer;/ She pounded Sisera, she pierced his head, / She split and struck through his temple."
