'Stalk' in the Bible

After he had fallen back to sleep, he had a second dream, in which seven ears of plump, fruit-filled grain grew up on a single stalk.

Later, I also dreamed about seven plump, fruit-filled ears of grain that grew up out of a single stalk.

Like a gang of thieves that stalk a man, priests commit murder along the road to Shechem, committing shameful crimes.

"Because they sow the wind, they will reap the wind storm. The plant has no stalk and its bud yields no grain. Even if there's a harvest, foreigners will gobble it up.

"So I will be like a lion to them. Like a leopard I will stalk them along the road.

The faithful have died off, and there is not one upright human being in the land. They all stalk one another with lethal intent, a man will even hunt his own brother with a net.
