And in those times there was no peace to him that went out nor
to him that came in
There was no safety in going abroad for travellers from one part to another on account of trade and business, the highways being infested with thieves and robbers:

2 Chronicles 15:5 In-Context

3 Now for a long season Yisra'el was without the true God, and without a teaching Kohen, and without law:

4 But when in their distress they turned to the LORD, the God of Yisra'el, and sought him, he was found of them.

5 In those times there was no shalom to him who went out, nor to him who came in; but great vexations were on all the inhabitants of the lands.

6 They were broken in pieces, nation against nation, and city against city; for God did vex them with all adversity.

7 But be you strong, and don't let your hands be slack; for your work shall be rewarded.
