Exegesis
Each clause contains the strong negation construction ou mē {οὐ μὴ | ou mē} plus an aorist subjunctive—akousthē {ἀκουσθῇ | akousthē} “might be heard” or heurethē {εὑρεθῇ | heurethē} “might be found”—which in this context expresses categorical, future exclusion rather than mere possibility.
In context — Revelation 18:22
And the sound of harpists and musicians, of flutists and trumpeters, shall never be heard in you any longer; and every craftsman of every trade shall never be found in you any longer; and the sound of a mill shall never be heard in you any longer.
