1 Samuel 13:20-22
Holman Christian Standard Bible
20 So all the Israelites went to the Philistines to sharpen their plows, mattocks, axes, and sickles.[a] 21 The price was two-thirds of a shekel[b] for plows and mattocks, and one-third of a shekel for pitchforks and axes, and for putting a point on an oxgoad. 22 So on the day of battle not a sword or spear could be found in the hand of any of the troops who were with Saul(A) and Jonathan; only Saul and his son Jonathan had weapons.
