'Rod' in the Bible

Behold, the day, behold, it comes: your doom is gone forth; the rod has blossomed, pride has budded.

Violence is risen up into a rod of wickedness; none of them [shall remain], nor of their multitude, nor of their wealth: neither shall there be eminency among them.

Fire is gone out of the rods of its branches, it has devoured its fruit, so that there is in it no strong rod to be a scepter to rule. This is a lamentation, and shall be for a lamentation.

I will cause you to pass under the rod, and I will bring you into the bond of the covenant;

it is sharpened that it may make a slaughter; it is furbished that it may be as lightning: shall we then make mirth? the rod of my son, it condemns every tree.

For there is a trial; and what if even the rod that condemns shall be no more? says the Lord Yahweh.
