Isaiah 28:27 in Context — Isaiah 28

25 N’est-ce pas après en avoir aplani la surface Qu’il répand de la nielle et sème du cumin; Qu’il met le froment par rangées, L’orge à une place marquée, Et l’épeautre sur les bords?

26 Son Dieu lui a enseigné la marche à suivre, Il lui a donné ses instructions.

27 On ne foule pas la nielle avec le traîneau, Et la roue du chariot ne passe pas sur le cumin; Mais on bat la nielle avec le bâton, Et le cumin avec la verge.

28 On bat le blé, Mais on ne le bat pas toujours; On y pousse la roue du chariot et les chevaux, Mais on ne l’écrase pas.

29 Cela aussi vient de l’Éternel des armées; Admirable est son conseil, et grande est sa sagesse.
