1 Samuel 13:19-21
Modern English Version
19 Now there was no blacksmith found throughout all the land of Israel. For the Philistines said, “Lest the Hebrews make for themselves swords or spears.” 20 So all the children of Israel went down to the Philistines, to sharpen every man his plow-point, his axe, his adze and his hoe. 21 The sharpening charge was two-thirds of a shekel[a] for plow-points, axes, pitchforks, and adzes, and to fix an ox-goad.
