Isaiah 28:27-29
The Voice
27 For dill isn’t threshed with a sledge,
and you don’t roll a cart over the cummin.
Dill is properly beaten free with one kind of stick,
and cummin with another.
28 Similarly, you have to grind grain to have flour for bread,
but you don’t grind it endlessly.
When the wheel on the cart and the horses go over the grain,
you must be careful not to crush it.
29 The Eternal, Commander of heavenly armies,
is the source of such wisdom.
His advice is wonderful.
Isaiah 28:27-29
New International Version
27 Caraway is not threshed(A) with a sledge,(B)
nor is the wheel of a cart rolled over cumin;
caraway is beaten out with a rod,(C)
and cumin with a stick.
28 Grain must be ground to make bread;
so one does not go on threshing it forever.
The wheels of a threshing cart(D) may be rolled over it,
but one does not use horses to grind grain.
29 All this also comes from the Lord Almighty,
whose plan is wonderful,(E)
whose wisdom is magnificent.(F)
