'War' in the Bible

who teaches my hands to make war, and my arms to bend a bronze bow.

You clothed me with strength for war; you will subdue under me those who rise up against me.

If an army encamps against me, my heart will not fear. If a war is launched against me, I will even trust in that situation.

He calmly ransomed my soul from the war waged against me, for there was a vast crowd who stood against me.

His mouth is as smooth as butter, while war is in his heart. His words were as smooth as olive oil, while his sword is drawn.

Those who are opposing you roar where we were meeting with you; they unfurl their war banners as signs.

There he shattered sharp arrows, shields, swords, and weapons of war. Interlude

I am in favor of peace; but when I speak, they are in favor of war. A Song of Ascents
