26 His God instructs him regarding the correct way,
    directing him how to plant.[a]

27 For caraway is not threshed with a sharp sledge,
    nor is a cart wheel rolled over cumin.

    one cannot keep threshing it forever.
Even if he drives his cart[d] and horses over it,
    he cannot crush it.
