The way we run this spell, a cleric cannot kill a 5th level fighter in 1 round
(duration of the spell) because he cannot use sharp weapons.  He can hit him
over the head with his trusty mace (doing max damage), but can't slit his
throat, etc.  Not very realistic, perhaps, but it's workable.  Besides, this
spell isn't didly (at least you get a save) compared to the 1st-level MU spell
sleep.  It wouldn't effect a 5th level guy, but it wreaks havoc on low-lifes.
