go about--that is, shall have to migrate into a land of exile. HORSLEY translates, "go trafficking about the land (see Jeremiah 5:31, Margin; 2 Corinthians 4:2; 2 Peter 2:3), and take no knowledge" (that is, pay no regard to the miseries before their eyes) (Isaiah 1:3; Isaiah 58:3). If the sense of the Hebrew verb be retained, I would with English Version understand the words as referring to the exile to Babylon; thus, "the prophet and the priest shall have to go to a strange land to practise their religious traffic (Isaiah 56:11; Ezekiel 34:2-3; Micah 3:11).
