is an old English word, signifying a coat of scale armor, but now obsolete in this sense; used in Jeremiah 46:4; Jeremiah 51:3, for the Heb. סַרְיוֹן , siryon' (occurring only in these passages), doubtless the same as the שַׁרְיוֹן, shiryon', a "coat of mail" (1 Samuel 17:5; 1 Samuel 17:38) or corselet. (See BREASTPLATE).
