In the days of bJael,
cThe highways were deserted,
And the travelers walked along the byways.
Then there was war in the gates;
Not a shield or spear was seen among forty thousand in Israel.
Who offered themselves willingly with the people.
Bless the Lord!
There they shall recount the righteous acts of the Lord,
The righteous acts for His villagers in Israel;
Then the people of the Lord shall go down to the gates.

Judges 5:7
Ceased - The people forsook all their unfortified towns, not being able to protect them from military insolence. A mother - That is, to be to them as a mother, to instruct, and rule, and protect them, which duties a mother owes to her children.
