Arrows:

At first made of reeds, and then of wood tipped with iron. Arrows are sometimes figuratively put for lightning (Deu 32:23,42; Psa 7:13; 18:14; 144:6; Zec 9:14). They were used in war as well as in the chase (Gen 27:3; 49:23). They were also used in divination (Eze 21:21).

The word is frequently employed as a symbol of calamity or disease inflicted by God (Job 6:4; 34:6; Psa 38:2; Deu 32:23. Comp. Ezek. 5:16), or of some sudden danger (Psa 91:5), or bitter words (Psa 64:3), or false testimony (Pro 25:18).
