then let me sow and let another eat, and let my crops be uprooted.

I myself have seen the fool taking root, but suddenly I cursed his place of residence.

You cleared the ground for it; it took root, and filled the land.

For it is a fire that devours even to Destruction, and it would uproot all my harvest.

Yet God will make you a permanent heap of ruins. He will scoop you up and remove you from your home; he will uproot you from the land of the living. (Selah)

The time is coming when Jacob will take root; Israel will blossom and grow branches. The produce will fill the surface of the world.

You plant them like trees and they put down their roots. They grow prosperous and are very fruitful. They always talk about you, but they really care nothing about you.

Indeed, they are barely planted; yes, they are barely sown; yes, they barely take root in the earth, and then he blows on them, causing them to dry up, and the wind carries them away like straw.
