1 Samuel 13:17-23

And the spoilers
<07843> (8688)
came out
<03318> (8799)
of the camp
<04264>
of the Philistines
<06430>
in three
<07969>
companies
<07218>_:
one
<0259>
company
<07218>
turned
<06437> (8799)
unto the way
<01870>
[that leadeth to] Ophrah
<06084>_,
unto the land
<0776>
of Shual
<07777>_:
And another
<0259>
company
<07218>
turned
<06437> (8799)
the way
<01870>
[to] Bethhoron
<01032>_:
and another
<0259>
company
<07218>
turned
<06437> (8799)
[to] the way
<01870>
of the border
<01366>
that looketh
<08259> (8737)
to the valley
<01516>
of Zeboim
<06650>
toward the wilderness
<04057>_.
Now there was no smith
<02796>
found
<04672> (8735)
throughout all the land
<0776>
of Israel
<03478>_:
for the Philistines
<06430>
said
<0559> (8804)_,
Lest the Hebrews
<05680>
make
<06213> (8799)
[them] swords
<02719>
or spears
<02595>_:
But all the Israelites
<03478>
went down
<03381> (8799)
to the Philistines
<06430>_,
to sharpen
<03913> (8800)
every man
<0376>
his share
<04282>_,
and his coulter
<0855>_,
and his axe
<07134>_,
and his mattock
<04281>_.
Yet they had a file
<06477> <06310>
for the mattocks
<04281>_,
and for the coulters
<0855>_,
and for the forks
<07969> <07053>_,
and for the axes
<07134>_,
and to sharpen
<05324> (8687)
the goads
<01861>_.
{a file: Heb. a file with mouths, or Heb. a pim, a third of a shekel} {sharpen: Heb. set}
So it came to pass in the day
<03117>
of battle
<04421>_,
that there was neither sword
<02719>
nor spear
<02595>
found
<04672> (8738)
in the hand
<03027>
of any of the people
<05971>
that [were] with Saul
<07586>
and Jonathan
<03129>_:
but with Saul
<07586>
and with Jonathan
<03129>
his son
<01121>
was there found
<04672> (8735)_.
And the garrison
<04673>
of the Philistines
<06430>
went out
<03318> (8799)
to the passage
<04569>
of Michmash
<04363>_.
{garrison: or, standing camp}
