2 Chronicles 26:14

And Uzziah prepared for them throughout all the host
For every soldier in the army:

shields and spears;
defensive and offensive weapons, the one to cover and protect their bodies, the other to push and pierce their enemies:

and helmets, and habergeons;
the first of these were a covering for the head in the day of battle, and the other coats of mail, to defend the body:

and bows;
to shoot arrows out of:

and slings to cast stones;
at which the Benjaminites formerly were very expert.

Divrey Hayamim Bais 26:14 In-Context

12 The whole mispar (number) of the Rashei HaAvot over the mighty warriors were two thousand and six hundred.

13 And under their yad was a battle group, three hundred thousand and seven thousand and five hundred, that made milchamah with mighty ko’ach, to help HaMelech against the enemy.

14 And Uziyahu prepared for them throughout all the army moginim (shields), and spears, and helmets, and armor, and bows, and slingstones.

15 And he made in Yerushalayim machines designed by inventive engineers, for use on the migdalim and upon the corners of the city wall, to shoot khitzim (arrows) and avanim gedolot. And shmo spread far abroad, for he was marvellously helped, until when chazak (he became powerful).

16 But when he became powerful, his lev was lifted up to his downfall, for he was unfaithful against Hashem Elohav, and he entered into the Heikhal Hashem to burn ketoret upon the Mizbe’ach HaKetoret.
