← Isaiah 28:24	Isaiah 28:25 (KJV)	Isaiah 28:26 →
Doth the plowman plow all day to sow? doth he open and break the clods of his ground?	When he hath made plain the face thereof, doth he not cast abroad the fitches, and scatter the cummin, and cast in the principal wheat and the appointed barley and the rie in their place?	For his God doth instruct him to discretion, [and] doth teach him.
