Isaiah 28:25-27
Good News Translation

25 Once they have prepared the soil, they plant the seeds of herbs such as dill and cumin. They plant rows of wheat and barley,[a] and at the edges of their fields they plant other grain. 26 They know how to do their work, because God has taught them. 27 They never use a heavy club to beat out dill seeds or cumin seeds; instead they use light sticks of the proper size.

Isaiah 28:25-27
New International Version

25 When he has leveled the surface,
    does he not sow caraway and scatter cumin?(A)
Does he not plant wheat in its place,[a]
    barley(B) in its plot,[b]
    and spelt(C) in its field?
26 His God instructs him
    and teaches(D) him the right way.

27 Caraway is not threshed(E) with a sledge,(F)
    nor is the wheel of a cart rolled over cumin;
caraway is beaten out with a rod,(G)
    and cumin with a stick.
