כֵּ֠ן יֹאבְד֤וּ כָל־אוֹיְבֶ֙יךָ֙ יְהוָ֔ה וְאֹ֣הֲבָ֔יו כְּצֵ֥את הַשֶּׁ֖מֶשׁ בִּגְבֻרָת֑וֹ וַתִּשְׁקֹ֥ט הָאָ֖רֶץ אַרְבָּעִ֥ים שָׁנָֽה׃ (פ)

Metzudat David on Judges
So may they perish: Devorah said, "Behold these were vain consolations. And if only 'all of Your enemies would perish so,' You O Lord, like Sisera perished.
