For the fitches are not threshed with a threshing instrument, neither is a cart wheel turned about upon the cummin; but the fitches are beaten out with a staff, and the cummin with a rod.

The verse 27 is found in chapter 28 of Isaiah. Jerusalem’s leaders believe they have made a covenant with death, but Isaiah presents the stone laid in Zion as a secure foundation. The architect metaphor contrasts with the false security of human agreements. The “strange work” of divine action demonstrates that God is not limited by the strategic expectations of its rulers.

Denn man drischt die Wicken nicht mit Dreschwagen, so läßt man auch nicht das Wagenrad über den Kümmel gehen; sondern die Wicken schlägt man aus mit einem Stabe und den Kümmel mit einem Stecken.
Que la neguilla no se trillará con trillo, ni sobre el comino rodará rueda de carreta; sino que con un palo se sacude la neguilla, y el comino con una vara.
Porque el comino negro no se trilla con trillo ni se hace pasar la rueda de una carreta sobre el comino; el comino negro se golpea con un palo y el comino con una vara.
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.
Conciossiachè non si trebbi la veccia con la trebbia, e non si ravvolga la ruota del carro sopra il comino; anzi si scuote la veccia con la bacchetta, e il comino con la mazza.
Porque a ervilhaca não se trilha com trilho, nem sobre o cominho passa roda de carro; mas com uma vara se sacode a ervilhaca, e o cominho com um pau.
原來打小茴香,不用尖利的器具, 軋大茴香,也不是用車輪; 卻要用杖打小茴香, 用棍打大茴香。
