pruning hook

同根派生

Using an extendable carbon-fibre pruning hook is a much easier way of harvesting betel nuts than climbing the tree!
用伸縮的碳纖維鐮刀收割，可比以前爬上樹梢採檳榔省事多了。
They will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks.
他們要將刀打成犁頭，把槍打成鐮刀。
KJV] For afore the harvest, when the bud is perfect, and the sour grape is ripening in the flower, he shall both cut off the sprigs with pruning hooks, and take away and cut down the branches.
[新譯]因爲在收割以前，花蕾開盡，花朵也成了將熟的葡萄之時，他就用鐮刀削去嫩枝，又砍掉蔓延的枝子。
For afore the harvest, when the bud is perfect, and the sour grape is ripening in the flower, he shall both cut off the sprigs with pruning hooks, and take away and cut down the branches.
因爲在收割以前，花蕾開盡，花朵也成了將熟的葡萄之時，他就用鐮刀削去嫩枝，又砍掉蔓延的枝子。
It is therefore logical to conceive of ways to use them for productive purposes, much as the Bible exhorts its readers to beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks.
因此，設想爲提高生産率而使用它們僅僅衹是邏輯上的，這非常像聖經告誡讀者要化乾戈爲玉帛。
