20 The bed is too short to stretch out,and the shroud is too narrow to cover oneself.
21 Just as on Mount Perazim, the Lord will rise up;as in the Gibeon Valley he will rage to do his deed—strange is his deed!—And to work his work—foreign is his work!
22 So now stop your scoffing,or your chains will be tightened,because destruction has been ordered—I have heard it!—by the Lord God of heavenly forces against the whole land.
23 Listen and hear my voice;pay attention and hear my word:
24 Does the plowman plow without stopping for planting,opening and harrowing their ground?
25 When he has smoothed its surface,doesn’t he scatter fennel, and sow cumin,and plant wheat and barley in their places,and spelt as a border?
26 They are properly ordered;their God directs them.
