'Tear' in the Bible

See, I have appointed you todayover nations and kingdomsto uproot and tear down,to destroy and demolish,to build and plant.

At one moment I might announce concerning a nation or a kingdom that I will uproot, tear down, and destroy it.

“As I live,” says the Lord, “though you, Coniah son of Jehoiakim, the king of Judah, were a signet ring on My right hand, I would tear you from it.

Just as I watched over them to uproot and to tear them down, to demolish and to destroy, and to cause disaster, so will I be attentive to build and to plant them,” says the Lord.

As they heard all these words, the king and all of his servants did not become terrified or tear their garments.
