Isaiah 28:24-29
English Standard Version
24 Does he who plows for sowing plow continually?
Does he continually open and harrow his ground?
25 (A)When he has leveled its surface,
does he not scatter dill, sow cumin,
and put in wheat in rows
and barley in its proper place,
and emmer[a] as the border?
26 (B)For he is rightly instructed;
his God teaches him.
27 Dill is not threshed with a threshing sledge,
nor is a cart wheel rolled over cumin,
but dill is beaten out with a stick,
and cumin with a rod.
28 Does one crush grain for bread?
No, he does not thresh it forever;[b]
when he drives his cart wheel over it
with his horses, he does not crush it.
29 This also comes from the Lord of hosts;
he is (C)wonderful in counsel
and excellent in wisdom.
