For thus said Jehovah of Hosts, God of Israel, The daughter of Babylon is as a threshing-floor, The time of her threshing -- yet a little, And come hath the time of her harvest.

during all days of the earth, seed-time and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night, do not cease.'

'Six days thou dost work, and on the seventh day thou dost rest; in ploughing-time and in harvest thou dost rest.

Cut off the sower from Babylon, And him handling the sickle in the time of harvest, Because of the oppressing sword, Each unto his people -- they turn, And each to his land -- they flee.
