11 Violence [a]has grown into a rod of (A)wickedness. None of them shall remain, none of their [b]people, none of their (B)wealth, nor anything eminent among them. 12 The (C)time has come, the day has arrived. Let neither the (D)buyer rejoice nor the seller mourn; for (E)wrath is against all their multitude. 13 Indeed, the seller will not [c](F)regain [d]what he sold as long as [e]they both live; for the vision regarding all their multitude will not [f]be averted, nor will any of them maintain his life by his wrongdoing.

11 Violence(A) has arisen,[a]
    a rod to punish the wicked.
None of the people will be left,
    none of that crowd—
none of their wealth,
    nothing of value.(B)
12 The time has come!
    The day has arrived!
Let not the buyer(C) rejoice
    nor the seller grieve,
    for my wrath is on the whole crowd.(D)
13 The seller will not recover
    the property that was sold—
    as long as both buyer and seller live.
For the vision concerning the whole crowd
    will not be reversed.
Because of their sins, not one of them
    will preserve their life.(E)
