Exegesis
The prepositional phrase ʿal kol-yoshvei hā-ʾǎ-rā-ṣōṯ {עַל כָּל־יוֹשְׁבֵ֖י הָאֲרָצֽוֹת | ʿal kol-yōš-vê hā-ʾǎ-rā-ṣōṯ} extends the action to all inhabitants of the lands. The fronting of the temporal clause adds emphasis, and the existential construction conveys the intensifying unrest.
In context — 2 Chronicles 15:5
And in those times there was no peace for those who went out or those who came in, because many disturbances were upon all the inhabitants of the lands .
