He who does not have a sword should sell his cloak and buy one. Jesus

The Gospel according to Luke. (Chapter and verse escape me right now, but it's during the Last Supper.)

One of my favorite Bible verses.

Luke 22:36.

And they got two swords before the last supper. And when the soldiers came Peter cut ones ear with the sword.

[35] Then Jesus asked them, "When I sent you without purse, bag or sandals, did you lack anything?"

"Nothing," they answered.

[36] He said to them, "But now if you have a purse, take it, and also a bag; and if you don't have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one. [37] It is written: 'And he was numbered with the transgressors'; and I tell you that this must be fulfilled in me. Yes, what is written about me is reaching its fulfillment."

[38] The disciples said, "See, Lord, here are two swords."

"That is enough," he replied.
