Arise ye, and depart; you inhabitants of Israel, especially you oppressors, bestir yourselves. and prepare for your departure out of this land; for, will ye nill ye, so it is, you shall be carried away: the words also may fairly be applied to the oppressed, to lessen the troubles they were under, and to advise them to retire out of this land. This is not your rest: though it was given this people for a rest under God's wing, yet it was on condition of continued obedience; but since they do not observe the condition, they shall never find the expected rest; one trouble shall succeed another, until the captivity sweep them all away, both oppressors and oppressed; these therefore should grieve the less at their present trouble, nor grudge to transplant themselves. Because it is polluted, with many, and great, and old sins, it shall destroy; spew them out as a burden intolerable to the earth that bears them, as Leviticus 18:25; this polluted land shall be destroyed. A sore destruction; such as may well require a lamentation; such as Micah 2:4; a grievous desolation, such as never shall be repaired.
