So all the Israelites went to the Philistines to sharpen their plows, mattocks, axes, and sickles.

Yet they had a file for the mattocks, and for the colters, and for the forks, and for the axes, and to sharpen the goads.

And so did he in the cities of Manasseh, and Ephraim, and Simeon, even to Naphtali, with their mattocks around.

And he shall be judge among the heathen and tell many nations their faults. And they shall turn their swords into mattocks and their spears into scythes. One nation shall not lift up a sword against another, neither shall they teach to war any more.

And all the hills that were digged with the mattock, thou shalt not come thither for fear of briers and thorns; but it shall be for the sending forth of oxen, and for the treading of sheep.
