I have brought upon them, against the mother of the young men, &c.— Houbigant renders this verse in the future, thus, Their widows shall be increased to me above the land of the sea; and upon the mothers, and upon the young men, will I bring down him who spoileth the southern country: I will oppress them with calamity and sudden terror. We may read the latter part, Against the mother a young, or chosen man; a spoiler at noon-day: I have drawn down upon her suddenly an enemy and terrors.
