Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the company shall stone them with stones,.... Which was the punishment of adulterers and idolaters, Deuteronomy 13:10, this seems to refer to the Chaldean army casting out stones from their slings and engines into the city of Jerusalem, when they besieged it, by which they killed some, and beat down the houses, which fell upon others, and destroyed them. So the Targum,
"and the army shall stone them with the stones of a sling:''
and dispatch them with their swords; cut them in pieces with them, such as sallied out of the city upon them, or they found without, or by any means fell into their hands:
they shall slay their sons and their daughters; when they broke into the city, and took it; or when they found them making their escape, and hiding themselves in secret places:
and burn up their houses with fire; as they did; the temple, the king's palace, the houses of noblemen, and all the houses in Jerusalem; see Jeremiah 52:13.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The righteous men - Or, righteous men. The allies are so called as the instruments of God’s righteous judgments.
Ezekiel 23:48
To cease - Because they are stricken and consumed. Compare marginal reference.
All women - i. e., all countries.
