Hebrew Bible, Isaias, Ottley, Cambridge, 1904

26 And he instructeth him according to judgment; his God teacheth him.

27 For fennel is not threshed with a sledge, nor is a cart wheel rolled upon cummin; for fennel is beaten out with a staff, and cummin with a rod.

28 Bread (corn) is crushed ; for not for ever is he threshing it, and driving his cart wheel and his horses; he doth not crush it.
