( מִזְמֵרָה , Mazmerah ; Sept. Δρέπανον ;  Isaiah 2:4;  Isaiah 18:5; Joel 4:10;  Micah 4:3), a knife for pruning the vine. The manner of tzrimming the vine ( זֵמִר , Zamdr ) , signifying clipping, and also the singular instrument of the vine-dresser, were well known even in the time of Moses ( Leviticus 25:3-4), and no doubt both were similar to those employed by the Egyptians. (See Knife); (See Vine); (See Vineyard)).
