Isaiah 28:24-29

24A farmer ploughs the ground because he wants to plant seeds in it. He does not continue to plough for ever.

25When he has prepared the ground, he plants many different seeds. He plants dill and cummin. He plants wheat, barley and different grains in their proper places.

26God teaches the farmer and he tells him the right thing to do.

27After the harvest, the farmer knows how to remove seeds from dill or from cummin. He will not pull a heavy iron weight over dill. He will not run the wheels of a cart over cummin. Instead, he will hit them with a light stick.

28When he crushes grain to make flour for bread, he does not do it for a long time. He drives the wheels of his cart over the grain, but he does not let his horses crush it.

29The Lord Almighty causes farmers to know all that. His ideas are very wise, and he shows us how to live in a wise way.
