NET Notes

¹tn Heb “Curse Meroz.”

²tn The adjective “angelic” is interpretive.

³tn Heb “Curse, cursing.” The Hebrew construction is emphatic.

⁴tn Heb “[to] curse.”

⁵tn Heb “to the help of the Lord” (the same Hebrew phrase occurs in the following line). Another option is to read “to aid the Lord’s cause.”

⁶tn Or “along with the other warriors.”
