Gill's Notes on the Bible

We gat our bread [with the peril of] our lives,.... This seems to refer to the time of the siege when they privately went out of the city to get in some provision, but went in danger of their lives:

because of the sword of the wilderness: or, "of the plain" t; because of the, word of the Chaldean army, which lay in the plain about Jerusalem into whose hand there was danger of falling, and of being cut to pieces.

t מפני חרב המדבר "propter gladium [in] deserto, [sive] plano", Gataker.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

We gat - Or, We get “our bread at the peril of our lives.†This verse apparently refers to those who were left in the land, and who in gathering in such fruits as remained, were exposed to incursions of the Bedouin, here called “the sword of the desert.â€

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 9. We gat our bread with the peril of our lives — They could not go into the wilderness to feed their cattle, or to get the necessaries of life, without being harassed and plundered by marauding parties, and by these were often exposed to the peril of their lives. This was predicted by Moses, Deuteronomy 28:31.
