Isaiah uses a question to scold those in Judah who harm the poor and weak people. Alternate translation: "But there is nothing you will be able to do when Yahweh judges you and when those from far away come to destroy you." (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion)
To whom will you flee for help, and where will you leave your wealth
Isaiah uses a question to scold those in Judah who harm the poor and weak people. Alternate translation: "There is nowhere to run for help, and you will have nowhere to hide your riches."
Nothing remains
"Nothing remains for you to do." Alternate translation: "There is nothing you can to do to help yourselves."
and you crouch among the prisoners or fall among the killed

See how you translated this in Isaiah 5:25.
