'Shields' in the Bible

Deploy small shields and large;draw near for battle!

Rise up, you cavalry!Race furiously, you chariots!Let the warriors go out—Cush and Put,who are able to handle shields,and the Ludim,who are able to handle and string the bow.

Make bright the arrows; gather the shields: the LORD hath raised up the spirit of the kings of the Medes: for his device is against Babylon, to destroy it; because it is the vengeance of the LORD, the vengeance of his temple.
