'Rods' in the Bible

Well water that the princes dug, that the leaders of the people dug, with a staff [and] with their rods." And from [the] desert [they continued to] Mattanah,

Its bones [are] tubes of copper, its limbs like rods of iron.

His arms [are] {rods} of gold {engraved with} jewels; his belly [is] polished ivory covered with sapphires.

And the crowd joined in attacking them, and the chief magistrates tore off their clothing [and] gave orders to beat [them] with rods.

Three times I was beaten with rods. Once I received a stoning. Three times I was shipwrecked. A day and a night I have spent in the deep water.
