Despite the precedent being there, it's not a verbatim quote from the Bible. Kind of like people assuming "God helps those who help themselves" is in there, too.
This is somewhat relevant to the debate, too. A lot of people culturally identify with Christianity, but do little to nothing that actually makes them a Christian. If they did, they might be reading the Word more to know what's actually in there. (and treat all folks as what we are, beggars leading other beggars to real substance)

The sword might be grateful to the forge fire, but never fond of it.
