And the Lord discomfited Sisera, and all his chariots, and all his army, with the edge of the sword before Barak; and Sisera descended from off his chariot, and fled on his feet.

And Sisera fled on his feet to the tent of Jael the wife of Heber, his friend the Kenite; for there was peace between Jabin king of Hazor and the house of Heber the Kenite.

And Sisera said to her, Give me a little water to drink, for I am thirsty: and she opened a bottle of milk, and gave him to drink, and covered him.

And Jael the wife of Heber took a tent peg, and took a hammer in her hand, and went secretly to him, and fastened the peg in his temple, and it went through to the earth, and he fainted away, and darkness fell upon him and he died.

A king is not saved by reason of a great host; and a giant shall not be delivered by the greatness of his strength.

A horse is vain for safety; neither shall he be delivered by the greatness of his power.

He will not take pleasure in the strength of a horse; neither is He well-pleased with the legs of a man.

The Lord takes pleasure in them that fear Him, and in all that hope in His mercy.

I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, nor yet bread to the wise, nor yet wealth to men of understanding, nor yet favor to men of knowledge; for time and chance will happen to them all.

but you said, We will flee upon horses; therefore shall you flee; and, We will be aided by swift riders; therefore shall they that pursue you be swift.

A thousand shall flee because of the voice of one, and many shall flee on account of the voice of five; until you are left as a signal-post upon a mountain, and as one bearing an ensign upon a hill.

And flight shall perish from the runner, and the strong shall not hold fast his strength, and the warrior shall not save his life;

and the archer shall not withstand, and he that is swift of foot shall by no means escape; and the horseman shall not save his life.

I saw the Lord standing on the altar: and He said, Strike the mercy seat, and the porch shall be shaken; and cut through into the heads of all; and I will slay the remnant of them with the sword: he who flees shall not escape, and he who escapes shall not be delivered.

If they hide themselves in the top of Carmel, from there will I search them out and take them; and if they should go down from My presence into the depths of the sea, there will I command the serpent, and he shall bite them.

The nations have heard your voice, and the land has been filled with your cry; for the warriors have fainted fighting, one against another, [and] both have fallen together.

But the Lord was with me as a mighty man of war; therefore they persecuted [me], but could not perceive [anything against me.] They were greatly confounded, for they perceived not their disgrace, which shall never be forgotten.

And your pride shall fail, and fall, and there shall be no one to set it up again. And I will kindle a fire in her forest, and it shall devour all things round about her.

When evildoers drew near against me to eat up my flesh, my persecutors and my enemies, they fainted and fell.

Therefore many among them shall be weak and fall, and be crushed; and they shall draw near, and men shall be taken securely.

Then he shall turn back his face to the strength of his own land, but he shall become weak, and fall, and not be found.

And the arms of him that overflows shall be washed away as with a flood from before him, and shall be broken, and [so shall be] the head of the covenant.

And that day [shall be] to the Lord our God a day of vengeance, to take vengeance on His enemies. And the sword of the Lord shall devour, and be glutted, and be drunken with their blood; for the Lord [has] a sacrifice from the land of the north at the River Euphrates.

And the Lord said to me, From the north shall flame forth evils upon all the inhabitants of the land.

Gather up [your wares] and flee to Zion. Hasten, stay not: for I will bring evils from the north, and great destruction.

Strengthen yourselves, you children of Benjamin, [to flee] out of the midst of Jerusalem, and sound an alarm with the trumpet in Tekoa, and set up a signal over Beth Haccerem; for evil threatens from the north, and a great destruction is coming.

behold I [will] send and take a family from the north, and will bring them against this land, and against the inhabitants of it, and against all the nations round about it. And I will utterly destroy them, and make them a horror, and a hissing, and an everlasting reproach.
