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!
用伸缩的碳纤维镰刀收割，可比以前爬上树梢采槟榔省事多了。
They will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks.
他们要将刀打成犁头，把枪打成镰刀。
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.
[新译]因为在收割以前，花蕾开尽，花朵也成了将熟的葡萄之时，他就用镰刀削去嫩枝，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.
因为在收割以前，花蕾开尽，花朵也成了将熟的葡萄之时，他就用镰刀削去嫩枝，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，设想为提高生产率而使用它们仅仅只是逻辑上的，这非常像圣经告诫读者要化干戈为玉帛。
