'Defensive' in the Bible

but they took a defensive stand in the middle of the field and killed the Philistines while the LORD saved them by means of a great victory.

Rehoboam continued to live in Jerusalem and built defensive fortification cities throughout Judah,

Your maxims are just worthless proverbs; your defensive arguments are made of clay."

The LORD planned to destroy the walls of cherished Zion. He measured them with his line. He did not withhold his hand from destruction. He made both ramparts and defensive walls mourn; they languish together.

He will remember to summon his finest troops. They will stumble on their way, hurrying over to Nineveh's wall. Their defensive shield is in place.
