Curse you Meroz, said the angel of Yahweh. Curse you bitterly the inhabitants of it, Because they didn't come to the help of Yahweh, To the help of Yahweh against the mighty.
"By having Sisera fall and saying that he ’lay’ at Jael’s feet-more literally, ’between her feet [or legs]’-the poet suggests the sexual dimension of the scene. The potential rapist is subdued by the potential victim; that is, the poet contributes to what is also evident in the narrative version in Judges 4:17-22 -the ’womanization’ of Sisera . . ."
