This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

captains - The Margin, “battering-rams,” adopted by Fairbairn, is less appropriate, for “battering-rams” follow presently after [Grotius].
open the mouth in ... slaughter - that is, commanding slaughter: raising the war cry of death. Not as Gesenius, “to open the mouth with the war shout.”
