Judges 4:18 in Context — Judges 4

16 Barak poursuivit les chars et l’armée jusqu’à Haroscheth-Goïm; et toute l’armée de Sisera tomba sous le tranchant de l’épée, sans qu’il en restât un seul homme.

17 Sisera se réfugia à pied dans la tente de Jaël, femme de Héber, le Kénien; car il y avait paix entre Jabin, roi de Hatsor, et la maison de Héber, le Kénien.

18 Jaël sortit au-devant de Sisera, et lui dit: Entre, mon seigneur, entre chez moi, ne crains point. Il entra chez elle dans la tente, et elle le cacha sous une couverture.

19 Il lui dit: Donne-moi, je te prie, un peu d’eau à boire, car j’ai soif. Elle ouvrit l’outre du lait, lui donna à boire, et le couvrit.

20 Il lui dit encore: Tiens-toi à l’entrée de la tente, et si l’on vient t’interroger en disant: Y a-t-il ici quelqu’un? Tu répondras: Non.
