'Cut' in the Bible
And if your right hand is a snare to you, cut it off and away with it; it is better for you that one member should be destroyed rather than that your whole body should go into Gehenna.
Every tree which does not yield good fruit is cut down and thrown aside for burning.
If your hand or your foot is causing you to fall into sin, cut it off and away with it. It is better for you to enter into Life crippled in hand or foot than to remain in possession of two sound hands or feet but be thrown into the fire of the Ages.
and most of the crowd kept spreading their garments along the road, while others cut branches from the trees and carpeted the road with them,
And if those days had not been cut short, no one would escape; but for the sake of God's own People those days will be cut short.
