See, I will make you into a threshing sledge, new and sharp, with many teeth.
You will thresh the mountains and crush them, and reduce the hills to chaff.
You will winnow them, the wind will pick them up, and a gale will blow them away.
But you will rejoice in the LORD and glory in the Holy One of Israel. Isaiah 41: 15 & 16
