Charles Ellicott Commentary
"And the children of Dan said unto him, Let not thy voice be heard among us, lest angry fellows fall upon you, and thou lose thy life, with the lives of thy household." — Judges 18:25 (ASV)
Lest angry men run upon you. —Literally, lest men bitter of soul fall upon you. (Judges 15:12; 2 Samuel 17:8, chafed in their minds.)
You lose your life. —Literally, you gather your life, as in Psalms 26:9.
