When your husbands away
And in the camp there's sin
Have you opened the tent?
Let the enemy in?

Can you be strong?
As Jael was back then
Strike the devil down dead
Through his temples, a tent pin?

Only one man in a thousand
Could Solomon find
And among women, not one
In whom righteousness abides! (Ecclesiastes 7:28)

 Judges 4:17
Howbeit Sisera fled away on his feet to the tent of Jael the wife of Heber the Kenite: for there was peace between Jabin the king of Hazor and the house of Heber the Kenite. 

 And Jael went out to meet Sisera, and said unto him, Turn in, my lord, turn in to me; fear not. And when he had turned in unto her into the tent, she covered him with a mantle. 

 And he said unto her, Give me, I pray thee, a little water to drink; for I am thirsty. And she opened a bottle of milk, and gave him drink, and covered him. 

 Again he said unto her, Stand in the door of the tent, and it shall be, when any man doth come and inquire of thee, and say, Is there any man here? that thou shalt say, No. 

 
(Sorry for the change in font, can't figure out how to reduce it back down)

Judges 4:21
Then Jael Heber's wife took a nail of the tent, and took an hammer in her hand, and went softly unto him, and smote the nail into his temples, and fastened it into the ground: for he was fast asleep and weary. So he died.

Ecclesiastes 7:28
Which yet my soul seeketh, but I find not: one man among a thousand have I found; but a woman among all those have I not found.
Which yet my soul seeketh, but I find not: one man among a thousand have I found; but a woman among all those have I not found.
