19 Now ^ano blacksmith could be found in all the land of Israel, for the Philistines said, “Lest the Hebrews make ¹^bswords or spears.” 20 So all Israel went down to the Philistines, each to sharpen his plowshare, his mattock, his axe, and his ¹goad. 21 And the charge was ¹two-thirds of a shekel for the plowshares, the mattocks, the forks, and the axes, and to fix the goad. 22 So it happened on the day of battle that ^aneither sword nor spear was found in the hands of any of the people who were with Saul and Jonathan, but they were found with Saul and his son Jonathan. 23 And ^athe garrison of the Philistines went out to ^bthe pass of Michmash.
