Isaiah 28:26-28
Expanded Bible
26 His God ·teaches [instructs] him
and ·shows [teaches] him the right way.
27 A farmer doesn’t use ·heavy boards to crush [a sledge to thresh] dill;
he doesn’t use a wagon wheel to crush cumin.
He uses a small stick to break open the dill,
and with a ·stick [rod; flail] he opens the cumin.
28 The grain is ground to make bread.
People do not ruin it by ·crushing [threshing] it forever.
The farmer separates the wheat from the chaff with his cart,
but he does not let his horses ·grind [crush] it.

Isaiah 28:26-28
New International Version
26 His God instructs him
and teaches(A) him the right way.
27 Caraway is not threshed(B) with a sledge,(C)
nor is the wheel of a cart rolled over cumin;
caraway is beaten out with a rod,(D)
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(E) may be rolled over it,
but one does not use horses to grind grain.
