'Root' in the Bible

I have seen the foolish taking root: But suddenly I cursed his habitation.

Though the root thereof wax old in the earth, And the stock thereof die in the ground;

If ye say, How we will persecute him! And that the root of the matter is found in me;

My root is spread out to the waters, And the dew lieth all night upon my branch;

For it is a fire that consumeth unto Destruction, And would root out all mine increase.
