'Axe' in the Bible

You are my battle axe and weapons of war: and with you will I break in pieces the nations; and with you will I destroy kingdoms;

"Even now the axe lies at the root of the trees. Therefore, every tree that doesn't bring forth good fruit is cut down, and cast into the fire.

Even now the axe also lies at the root of the trees. Every tree therefore that doesn't bring forth good fruit is cut down, and thrown into the fire."
