¹⁶ Cut off from Babylon the sower,
    and the one who handles the sickle in time of harvest;
^(A)because of the sword of the oppressor,
    ^(B)every one shall turn to his own people,
    and every one shall flee to his own land.

¹⁴ And like a hunted gazelle,
    or like sheep with none to gather them,
^(A)each will turn to his own people,
    and each will flee to his own land.
