Isaiah 28:22-27 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

22. And now, do not be willing to mock, lest your chains be tightened. For I have heard, from the Lord, the God of hosts, about the consummation and the abridgement concerning the entire earth.

23. Pay close attention, and listen to my voice! Attend and hear my eloquence!

24. Would the plowman, after plowing all day so that he may sow, instead cut open and hoe his soil?

25. Will he not, when he has made the surface level, sow coriander, and scatter cumin, and plant wheat in rows, and barley, and millet, and vetch in their places?

26. For he will be instructed in judgment; his God will teach him.

27. For coriander cannot be threshed with a saw, and a cartwheel cannot revolve over cumin. Instead, coriander is shaken out with a stick, and cumin with a staff.
