'Cut' in the Bible

And I took my staff, even Beauty, and cut it asunder, that I might break my covenant which I had made with all the people.

Then I cut asunder mine other staff, even Bands, that I might break the brotherhood between Judah and Israel.

And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.
