A foreign word without etymology. It has been compared with Latin sagitta (“arrow”) and Proto-Berber *zaġāya (“spear, assegai”) and Psalm 35, 3 Hebrew סְגֹר (səḡōr, translated as a weapon since Parḥōn, as lance by Luther, javelin by the Berean Study Bible, New International Version and New Living Translation, and battle-axe in the New American Standard Bible), but one would rather of course expect Iranian origin, and it is probably a cognate to Latin secūris (“broad axe”) and Proto-Slavic *sekyra (“broad axe”).
