This nonsense phrase is actually an encoded Biblical proverb. It was coded word-wise; that is, it will make sense again if you do something to each word. How can you break this odd code?

Bass mos xouq oearlr aeford rwind. 

Only the first and last letter of each word is shifted one character back in the alphabet, eg. B --> A, C --> B, D--> C, etc....

Cast not your pearls before swine.       [from Matthew 7:6]
