None of1 them shall remain,
None of their multitude,
None of them;
bNor shall there be wailing for them.
The day draws near.
‘Let not the buyer arejoice,
Nor the seller bmourn,
For wrath is on their whole multitude.
Though he may still be alive;
For the vision concerns the whole multitude,
And it shall not turn back;
No one will strengthen himself
Who lives in iniquity.
But no one goes to battle;
For My wrath is on all their multitude.
And the pestilence and famine within.
Whoever is in the field
Will die by the sword;
And whoever is in the city,
Famine and pestilence will devour him.
Like doves of the valleys,
All of them mourning,
Each for his iniquity.

Ezekiel 7:13
For the seller shall not return - In the sale of all heritages among the Jews, it was always understood that the heritage must return to the family on the year of jubilee, which was every fiftieth year; but in this case the seller should not return to possess it, as it was not likely that he should be alive when the next jubilee should come, and if he were even to live till that time, he could not possess it, as he would then be in captivity. And the reason is particularly given; for the vision - the prophetic declaration of a seventy years' captivity, regards the whole multitude of the people; and it shall not return, i.e., it will be found to be strictly true, without any abatement.
