Isaiah 28:27-29

International Children’s Bible

²⁷ A farmer doesn’t use heavy boards to crush dill.
    He doesn’t use a wagon to crush cummin.
He uses a small stick to break open the dill.
    With a stick he opens the cummin.
²⁸ The grain is ground to make bread.
    People do not ruin it by crushing it forever.
The farmer separates the wheat from the chaff with his cart.
    But he does not let his horses grind it.
²⁹ This lesson comes from the Lord of heaven’s armies.
    He gives wonderful advice. He is very wise.
