First Samuel 11:2

And the Ammonite Nahash said to them, "On this condition I will make a covenant with you, that everyone's right eye be put out, and I will put it as a reproach on all Israel." [Mutilating enemies was common among pagan peoples, see Judg. 16:21; 2 Kings 25:7. The people would be able to see enough to function as laborers, but would be unable to become skilled warriors and revolt.]
