Exegesis
The final clause, kai ouketi ou mē auta heurēsousin {καὶ οὐκέτι οὐ μὴ αὐτὰ εὑρήσουσιν | kaí ou-ké-ti ou mḕ autá heurḗ-sou-sin}, employs the emphatic double negation with future indicative to express irreversible impossibility. This progression from departure, to ruin, to final loss is mirrored in the English verbs ‘departed,’ ‘perished,’ and ‘will never find.’
Root and etymology
hormēomicron–rho–mu–ēta
“onrush, impulse, violent movement”
In context — Revelation 18:14
And the fruit that your soul longed for has departed from you, and all the luxurious things and the splendid things have perished from you, and they will never find them again.
