¹⁶ He made many fall;
Yes, ^(A)one fell upon another.
And they said, ‘Arise!
^(B)Let us go back to our own people
And to the land of our nativity
From the oppressing sword.’

¹⁶ Cut off the sower from Babylon,
And him who handles the sickle at harvest time.
For fear of the oppressing sword
^(A)Everyone shall turn to his own people,
And everyone shall flee to his own land.
