Job 28:5
New King James Version
5 As for the earth, from it comes bread,
But underneath it is turned up as by fire;
Isaiah 28:25-29
New King James Version
25 When he has leveled its surface,
Does he not sow the black cummin
And scatter the cummin,
Plant the wheat in rows,
The barley in the appointed place,
And the [a]spelt in its place?
26 For He instructs him in right judgment,
His God teaches him.
27 For the black cummin is not threshed with a threshing sledge,
Nor is a cartwheel rolled over the cummin;
But the black cummin is beaten out with a stick,
And the cummin with a rod.
28 Bread flour must be ground;
Therefore he does not thresh it forever,
Break it with his cartwheel,
Or crush it with his horsemen.
29 This also comes from the Lord of hosts,
(A)Who is wonderful in counsel and excellent in [b]guidance.

New King James Version
13 You were in (A)Eden, the garden of God;
Every precious stone was your covering:
The sardius, topaz, and diamond,
Beryl, onyx, and jasper,
Sapphire, turquoise, and emerald with gold.
The workmanship of (B)your timbrels and pipes
Was prepared for you on the day you were created.
14 “You were the anointed (C)cherub who covers;
I established you;
You were on (D)the holy mountain of God;
You walked back and forth in the midst of fiery stones.
Psalm 104:14-15
New King James Version
14 (A)He causes the grass to grow for the cattle,
And vegetation for the service of man,
That he may bring forth (B)food from the earth,
15 And (C)wine that makes glad the heart of man,
Oil to make his face shine,
And bread which strengthens man’s heart.
