Isaiah 28:28-29
English Standard Version

28 Does one crush grain for bread?
    No, he does not thresh it forever;[a]
when he drives his cart wheel over it
    with his horses, he does not crush it.
29 This also comes from the Lord of hosts;
    he is (A)wonderful in counsel
    and excellent in wisdom.

Isaiah 28:28-29
New International Version

28 Grain must be ground to make bread;
    so one does not go on threshing it forever.
The wheels of a threshing cart(A) may be rolled over it,
    but one does not use horses to grind grain.
29 All this also comes from the Lord Almighty,
    whose plan is wonderful,(B)
    whose wisdom is magnificent.(C)
