2 Esdras 16:42

Let the person who sells be like a person who is about to run away, and let the person who buys be like a person who is about to lose.
let one who does business be like one who will not make a profit; and let one who builds a house be like one who will not live in it;
Let the one who sells be like one who will flee; let the one who buys be like one who will lose;
let him that does business be like one who will not make a profit; and let him that builds a house be like one who will not live in it;
