NASB
"Does the farmer plow continually to plant seed? Does he continually turn and harrow the ground?"
— Isaiah 28:24, NASB
“Doth the plowman plow all day to sow? doth he open and break the clods of his ground?”
“Doth he that ploweth to sow plow continually? doth he continually open and harrow his ground? ”
“Does he who plows to sow plow continually? Does he keep turning the soil and breaking the clods?”
“Does a farmer just keep on plowing at planting time? Does he keep breaking up and harrowing his ground?”
“Shall the ploughman plough all the day to sow, shall he open and harrow his ground?”
“Is the ploughman for ever ploughing? does he not get the earth ready and broken up for the seed?”
“Doth the plowman plow all day to sow? doth he open and break the clods of his ground?”
For the LORD will rise up as at Mount Perazim, He will be stirred up as in the valley of Gibeon, To do His task, His unusual task, And to work His work, His extraordinary work.
And now do not carry on as scoffers, Or your fetters will be made stronger; For I have heard from the Lord GOD of hosts Of decisive destruction on all the earth.
Give ear and hear my voice, Listen and hear my words.
Does the farmer plow continually to plant seed? Does he continually turn and harrow the ground?
Does he not level its surface And sow dill and scatter cummin And plant wheat in rows, Barley in its place and rye within its area?
For his God instructs and teaches him properly.
For dill is not threshed with a threshing sledge, Nor is the cartwheel driven over cummin; But dill is beaten out with a rod, and cummin with a club.
