'Are they not finding and dividing the spoil? — A maiden or two for every man; spoil of dyed stuffs for Sisera, spoil of dyed stuffs embroidered, two pieces of dyed stuff embroidered for my neck as spoil?' — The description of anticipated spoils—maidens, dyed fabrics, embroidered garments—suggests the wealth that Sisera's mother expected him to bring home. The detailed inventory of material plunder contrasts sharply with Sisera's actual fate, creating tragic irony through unfulfilled expectations.
