Give ear and hear my voice, Listen and hear my words.

Does the ^[y]farmer plow ^[z]continually to plant seed? Does he continually ^[aa]turn and harrow the ground?

Does he not level its surface And sow dill and scatter ^(av)cummin And ^[ab]plant ^(aw)wheat in rows, Barley in its place and rye within its ^[ac]area?

For his God instructs and teaches him properly.

For dill is not threshed with a ^(ax)threshing sledge, Nor is the cartwheel ^[ad]driven over cummin; But dill is beaten out with a rod, and cummin with a club.

Grain for bread is crushed, Indeed, he does not continue to thresh it forever. Because the wheel of his cart and his horses eventually ^[ae]damage it, He does not thresh it longer.

This also comes from the Lord of hosts, Who has made His counsel ^(ay)wonderful and His wisdom ^(az)great.
