Wykorzeńcie rozsiewacza z Babilonu i tego, który trzyma sirp czasu żniwa; przez miecz borzący każdy z nich obróci się do ludu swojego i każdy uciecze do ziemie swojej.
Wytraćcie siejącego z Babilonu, i tego, który trzyma śierp czasu żniwa; przed ostrzem miecza burzącego każdy niech się do ludu swego obróci, i każdy do ziemi swojej niech uciecze.
Wytępię siewcę z Babelu i trzymającego sierp w czasie żniwa; przed mieczem, który tępi, każdy niech zawróci do swego ludu i każdy niech się schroni do swego kraju!
Wytraćcie siejącego z Babilonu, i tego, który trzyma śierp czasu żniwa; przed ostrzem miecza burzącego każdy niech się do ludu swego obróci, i każdy do ziemi swojej niech uciecze.
Wyniszczcie z Babilonu siewcę i tego, który chwyta sierp w czasie żniwa. Przed mieczem niszczycielskim każdy się zwróci do swego ludu i każdy ucieknie do swojej ziemi.
Wytępcie z Babilonu tego, kto sieje, i tego, kto chwyta sierp w czasie żniwa; przed mieczem okrutnym zwraca się każdy do swojego ludu i każdy ucieka do swojej ziemi!

Gill's Notes on the Bible
Cut off the sower from in Babylon, and him that handleth the sickle in the time of harvest,.... Both sower and reaper: the walls of Babylon took in a large compass of land, where there were corn fields; and which, as Curtius s observes, would yield a sufficiency to hold out a siege against an enemy; but being taken, the husbandman would not be spared, as used to be, but should be cut off, and so none to till the ground, or to reap what was upon it; and thus, in course, would be, desolate, as before threatened. The Targum understands this in a figurative sense,
"destroy the king out of Babylon, and take hold of the sword in the time of slaughter;''
and Cocceius interprets the sower of any doctor or bishop in mystical Babylon, and the reaper of such that gather the fruits, and exact obedience; see Revelation 18:14;
for fear of the oppressing sword; of the Medes and Persians:
they shall turn everyone to his people, and they shall flee everyone to his own land; not those of other nations, as the Jews, who were detained captives there, as Kimchi thinks; for these were not in such fear of the Persians, nor did they flee because of them; but were let go by them, and sent into their own land honourably: but either such who, of other nations, were come to traffic at Babylon; or rather the auxiliaries of other nations, who were either hired or forced into the service of Babylon; these, finding the city taken, would make the best of their way into their own country.
s Hist. l. 5. c. 1.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
The population is to be destroyed so utterly that the rich fields of Babylonia are to remain untilled.
They shall turn - The full force of the words will be seen if it be remembered that it had been the policy of Nebuchadnezzar to compel citizens selected from the vanquished nations to settle in Babylonia.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Jeremiah 50:16. Cut off the sower — Destroy the gardens and the fields, that there may be neither fruits nor tillage.
