New American Standard Bible (NASB)
Isaiah 28
22 And now do not carry on as scoffers, Or your fetters will be made stronger; For I have heard from the Lord God of hosts Of decisive destruction on all the earth.
23 Give ear and hear my voice, Listen and hear my words.
24 Does the farmer plow continually to plant seed? Does he continually turn and harrow the ground?
25 Does he not level its surface And sow dill and scatter cummin And plant wheat in rows, Barley in its place and rye within its area?
26 For his God instructs and teaches him properly.
27 For dill is not threshed with a threshing sledge, Nor is the cartwheel driven over cummin; But dill is beaten out with a rod, and cummin with a club.
28 Grain for bread is crushed, Indeed, he does not continue to thresh it forever. Because the wheel of his cart and his horses eventually damage it, He does not thresh it longer.
29 This also comes from the Lord of hosts, Who has made His counsel wonderful and His wisdom great.
Isaiah 29
1 Woe, O Ariel, Ariel the city where David once camped! Add year to year, observe your feasts on schedule.
2 I will bring distress to Ariel, And she will be a city of lamenting and mourning; And she will be like an Ariel to me.
3 I will camp against you encircling you, And I will set siegeworks against you, And I will raise up battle towers against you.
We pray that this ministry will be a blessing to you and your family.
