3 verses in the King James Version. Word study for “tree” →
For there is hope of a tree, if it be cut down, that it will sprout again, and that the tender branch thereof will not cease.
He hath destroyed me on every side, and I am gone: and mine hope hath he removed like a tree.
The womb shall forget him; the worm shall feed sweetly on him; he shall be no more remembered; and wickedness shall be broken as a tree.
