For it is one rule after another; one line after another; here a little, there a little. No, but with broken talk, and with a strange tongue, he will give his word to this people: To whom he said, This is the rest, give rest to him who is tired; and by this you may get new strength; but they would not give ear. For this cause the word of the Lord will be to them rule after rule, line after line, here a little, there a little; so that they may go on their way, and falling back may be broken, and taken in the net.

When the face of the earth has been levelled, does he not put in the different sorts of seed, and the grain in lines, and the barley in its place, and the spelt at the edge? For his God is his teacher, giving him the knowledge of these things. For the fitches are not crushed with a sharp instrument, and a cart-wheel is not rolled over the cummin; but the grain of the fitches is hammered out with a stick, and of the cummin with a rod. Is the grain for bread crushed? He does not go on crushing it for ever, but he lets his cart-wheels and his horses go over it without crushing it. This comes from the Lord of armies, purposing wonders, and wise in all his acts.
