• Jeremiah 12:14-15 (BSB): "This is what the LORD says: 'As for all My wicked neighbors who seize the inheritance I gave My people Israel, I will uproot them from their lands, and I will uproot the house of Judah from among them. But after I have uprooted them, I will again have compassion and will return each one to his inheritance and to his land.'"
• Ecclesiastes 3:2 (BSB): "a time to be born and a time to die, a time to plant and a time to uproot,"
