Judges 5:23-25

Contemporary English Version

²³ The Lord's angel said,
    “Put a curse on Meroz Town!
Its people refused
to help the Lord fight
    his powerful enemies.”

²⁴ But honor Jael,
the wife of Heber
    from the Kenite clan.
Give more honor to her
than to any other woman
    who lives in tents.
Yes, give more honor to her
    than to any other woman.
²⁵ Sisera asked for water,
but Jael gave him milk—
    cream in a fancy cup.
