Ezekiel 7:13

Ezekiel 7:13

11 ^aViolence has risen up into a rod of wickedness;
None of¹ them shall remain,
None of their multitude,
None of them;
^bNor shall there be wailing for them.

12 The time has come,
The day draws near.
‘Let not the buyer ^arejoice,
Nor the seller ^bmourn,
For wrath is on their whole multitude.

13 For the seller shall not return to what has been sold,
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.

14 ‘They have blown the trumpet and made everyone ready,
But no one goes to battle;
For My wrath is on all their multitude.

15 ^aThe sword is outside,
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.

16 ‘Those who ^asurvive will escape and be on the mountains
Like doves of the valleys,
All of them mourning,
Each for his iniquity.

John Wesley's Notes

Ezekiel 7:14 >>

Yet alive - For if any should survive the captivity, yet the conqueror wasting and destroying all, would confound all ancient boundaries. Touching - The evils threatened are designed against all the multitude of Israel. Strengthen - Nor shall any one man of them all he able to secure himself, by any sinful contrivance.
