Amos 9:9

9 For behold, I will command,
band shake the house of Israel among all the nations
as one shakes with a sieve,

12His cwinnowing fork is in his hand, and he will clear his threshing floor and dgather his wheat into the barn, ebut the chaff he will burn with funquenchable fire.”

Matthew 13:37-43

37He answered, “The one who sows the good seed is the Son of Man. 38The field is the world, and the good seed is gthe sons of the kingdom. The weeds are hthe sons of the evil one, 39and the enemy who sowed them is the devil. iThe harvest is jthe end of the age, and the reapers are angels. 40Just as the weeds kare gathered and burned with fire, so will it be at lthe end of the age. 41 mThe Son of Man will send his angels, and they will gather out of his kingdom all ncauses of sin and oall law-breakers, 42 pand throw them into the fiery furnace. In that place qthere will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 43Then rthe righteous will shine like the sun sin the kingdom of their Father. tHe who has ears, let him hear.

Luke 22:31-32

31Simon, Simon, behold, uSatan demanded to have you,
The Greek word for  you (twice in this verse) is plural; in verse 32, all four instances are singular
wthat he might sift you like wheat,
32but xI have prayed for you that your faith may not fail. And when you have turned again, ystrengthen your brothers.”

24Truly, truly, I say to you, zunless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit.
