25 When he has smoothed its surface,
    doesn’t he scatter fennel,[a] and sow cumin,
    and plant wheat and barley in their places,
    and spelt as a border?

    their God directs them.[b]

    nor is a cart wheel rolled over cumin,
    but fennel[d] is beaten with a staff,
    and cumin with a rod.
