'Bows' in the Bible

See, the bows of the evil-doers are bent, they make ready their arrows on the cord, so that they may send them secretly against the upright in heart.

The evil-doers have taken out their swords, their bows are bent; for crushing the poor, and to put to death those who are upright in their ways.

But their swords will be turned into their hearts, and their bows will be broken.

The children of Ephraim, armed with bows, were turned back on the day of the fight.
