Isaiah 28:23-29

23Listen and hear my voice. Pay attention and hear what I say.

24Does the plowman plow every day to plant seed? Does he continuously break up and cultivate the soil?

25When he has leveled its surface, does he not then scatter black cumin and sow cumin? He plants wheat in rows and barley in plots, with spelt as their border.

26His God teaches him order; he instructs him.

27Certainly black cumin is not threshed with a threshing board, and a cart wheel is not rolled over the cumin. But black cumin is beaten out with a stick, and cumin with a rod.

28Bread grain is crushed, but is not threshed endlessly. Though the wheel of the farmer’s cart rumbles, his horses do not crush it.

29This also comes from the Lord of Armies. He gives wondrous advice; he gives great wisdom.
