'Cutting' in the Bible

Most of the crowd spread their coats on the road [as before a king], while others were cutting branches from the trees and spreading them on the road.

Night and day he was constantly screaming and shrieking among the tombs and on the mountains, and cutting himself with [sharp] stones.

Already the reaper is receiving his wages and he is gathering fruit for eternal life; so that he who plants and he who reaps may rejoice together.

For the Lord will execute His word upon the earth [He will conclude His dealings with mankind] completely and without delay.”
