Isaiah 28:23-29

23Give ear, and hear my voice; give attention, and hear my speech.

24Does he who plows for sowing plow continually? Does he continually open and harrow his ground?

25When 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 as the border?

26For he is rightly instructed; his God teaches him.

27Dill 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.

28Does one crush grain for bread? No, he does not thresh it forever; when he drives his cart wheel over it with his horses, he does not crush it.

29This also comes from the Lord of hosts; he is wonderful in counsel and excellent in wisdom.
