Judges 5:28 in Context — Judges 5
26 D’une main elle a saisi le pieu, Et de sa droite le marteau des travailleurs; Elle a frappé Sisera, lui a fendu la tête, Fracassé et transpercé la tempe.
27 Aux pieds de Jaël il s’est affaissé, il est tombé, il s’est couché; A ses pieds il s’est affaissé, il est tombé; Là où il s’est affaissé, là il est tombé sans vie.
28 Par la fenêtre, à travers le treillis, La mère de Sisera regarde, et s’écrie: Pourquoi son char tarde-t-il à venir? Pourquoi ses chars vont-ils si lentement?
29 Les plus sages d’entre ses femmes lui répondent, Et elle se répond à elle-même:
30 Ne trouvent-ils pas du butin? Ne le partagent-ils pas? Une jeune fille, deux jeunes filles par homme, Du butin en vêtements de couleur pour Sisera, Du butin en vêtements de couleur, brodés, Un vêtement de couleur, deux vêtements brodés, Pour le cou du vainqueur.
