Listen closely to what I tell you; listen carefully to what I say. A farmer does not plow his field all the time; he does not go on working the soil. He makes the ground flat and smooth. Then he plants the dill and scatters the cumin. He plants the wheat in rows, the barley in its special place, and other wheat as a border around the field. His God teaches him and shows him the right way. A farmer doesn’t use heavy boards to crush 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 he opens the cumin. The grain is ground to make bread. People do not ruin it by crushing it forever. The farmer separates the wheat from the chaff with his cart, but he does not let his horses grind it. This lesson also comes from the LORD All-Powerful, who gives wonderful advice, who is very wise.
