Instead, black cumin is beaten with a stick, and cumin with a rod. 28 Grain must be ground to make bread, but it is not endlessly threshed. Though the wheels of a cart roll over it and its horses trample it, they do not crush it entirely. 29 This also comes from the LORD of Hosts, whose counsel is wonderful and whose wisdom is magnificent.

You walked among the stones of fire.
