# Dagon had fallen

The reader should understand that Yahweh had caused Dagon to fall.

# The head of Dagon and both of his hands were lying cut off

It was as if Yahweh were a soldier who had defeated his enemy and cut off the enemy's head and hands.

#  on the threshold

You may need to make explicit that this was the threshold in the doorway of the entrance to the temple. Alternate translation: "on the threshold of the doorway of the entrance to the temple" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-explicit]])
