1 The Philistines gathered their armies together for war. They met at Socoh in Judah. Their camp was between Socoh and Azekah, at a town called Ephes Dammim.

2 Saul and the Israelite soldiers also gathered together. Their camp was in the Valley of Elah. Saul's soldiers were lined up and ready to fight the Philistines.

3 The Philistines were on one hill. The Israelites were on the other hill. The valley was between them.

4 The Philistines had a champion fighter named Goliath, who was from Gath. He was over 9 feet tall. Goliath came out of the Philistine camp.

5 He had a bronze helmet on his head. He wore a coat of armor that was made like the scales on a fish. This armor was made of bronze and weighed about 125 pounds.

6 Goliath wore bronze protectors on his legs. He had a bronze javelin tied on his back.

7 The wooden part of his spear was as big as a weaver's rod. The spear's blade weighed 15 pounds. Goliath's helper walked in front of him, carrying Goliath's shield.

8 Each day Goliath would come out and shout a challenge to the Israelite soldiers. He would say, "Why are all of your soldiers lined up ready for battle? You are Saul's servants. I am a Philistine. So choose one man and send him to fight me.

9 If that man kills me, he wins and we Philistines will become your slaves. But if I kill your man, then I win, and you will become our slaves. You will have to serve us."

10 The Philistine also said, "Today I stand and make fun of the army of Israel. I dare you to send me one of your men and let us fight."

11 Saul and the Israelite soldiers heard what Goliath said, and they were very afraid.

12 David was the son of Jesse. Jesse was from the Ephrathah family in Bethlehem, Judah. Jesse had eight sons. In Saul's time Jesse was an old man.

13 Jesse's three oldest sons went with Saul to the war. The first son was Eliab, the second was Abinadab, and the third was Shammah.

14 David was the youngest son. The three oldest sons were in Saul's army,

15 but David left Saul from time to time to take care of his father's sheep at Bethlehem.

16 The Philistine came out every morning and evening and stood before the Israelite army. Goliath insulted Israel like this for 40 days.

17 One day Jesse said to his son David, "Take this basket of cooked grain and these ten loaves of bread to your brothers in the camp.

18 Also take these ten pieces of cheese for the officer who commands your brothers' group of 1000 soldiers. See how your brothers are doing. Bring back something to show me your brothers are all right.

19 Your brothers are with Saul and all the Israelite soldiers in the Valley of Elah. They are there to fight against the Philistines."

20 Early in the morning, David had another shepherd take care of the sheep while he took the food and left as Jesse had told him to. David drove their wagon to the camp. The soldiers were going out to their battle positions just as David arrived. The soldiers began shouting their war cry.

21 The Israelites and Philistines were lined up and ready for battle.

22 David left the food with the man who kept supplies. Then he ran to the place where the Israelite soldiers were and asked about his brothers.

23 While David was talking with his brothers, the Philistine champion fighter came out from the Philistine army. This was Goliath, the Philistine from Gath. Goliath shouted things against Israel as usual. David heard what he said.

24 The Israelite soldiers saw Goliath and ran away. They were all afraid of him.

25 One of the Israelite men said, "Did you see that man? Look at him! He comes out each day and makes fun of Israel. Whoever kills him will get rich. King Saul will give him a lot of money. Saul will also let his daughter marry the man who kills Goliath. He will also make that man's family free from taxes in Israel."

26 David asked the men standing near him, "What did he say? What is the reward for killing this Philistine and taking away this shame from Israel? Who is this Goliath anyway? He is only some foreigner, nothing but a Philistine. Why does he think he can speak against the army of the living God?"

27 So the Israelite told David about the reward for killing Goliath.

28 David's oldest brother Eliab heard David talking with the soldiers and became angry. Eliab asked David, "Why did you come here? Who did you leave those few sheep with in the desert? I know why you came down here. You didn't want to do what you were told to do. You just wanted to come down here to watch the battle."

29 David said, "What did I do now? I didn't do anything wrong! I was only talking."

30 He turned to some other people and asked them the same questions. They gave him the same answers as before.

31 Some men heard David talking. They took David to Saul and told him what David had said.

32 David said to Saul, "People shouldn't let Goliath discourage them. I am your servant. I will go fight this Philistine."

33 Saul answered, "You can't go out and fight against this Philistine. You're not even a soldier! Goliath has been fighting in wars since he was a boy."

34 But David said to Saul, "There were times when I was taking care of my father's sheep that wild animals came to take some sheep from the flock. Once there was a lion and another time, a bear.

35 I chased that wild animal, attacked it, and took the sheep from its mouth. The wild animal jumped on me, but I caught it by the fur under its mouth. And I hit it and killed it.

36 I killed both a lion and a bear like that! And I will kill that foreigner, Goliath, just like them. Goliath will die because he made fun of the army of the living God.

37 The Lord saved me from the lion and the bear. He will also save me from this Philistine." Saul said to David, "Go and may the Lord be with you."

38 Saul put his own clothes on David. He put a bronze helmet on David's head and armor on his body.

39 David put on the sword and tried to walk around. He tried to wear Saul's uniform, but David was not used to all those heavy things. David said to Saul, "I can't fight in these things. I'm not used to them." So David took them all off.

40 He took his walking stick in his hand and went to find five smooth stones from the stream. He put the five stones in his shepherd's bag and held his sling in his hand. Then he went out to meet the Philistine.

41 The Philistine slowly walked closer and closer to David. Goliath's helper walked in front of him, carrying a large shield.

42 Goliath looked at David with disgust. He saw that David was only a handsome, healthy boy.

43 Goliath said to David, "What is that stick for? Did you come to chase me away like a dog?" Then Goliath used the names of his gods to say curses against David.

44 He said to David, "Come here, and I'll feed your body to the birds and wild animals."

45 David said to the Philistine, "You come to me using sword, spear, and javelin. But I come to you in the name of the Lord All- Powerful, the God of the armies of Israel. You have said bad things about him.

46 Today the Lord will let me defeat you. I will kill you. I will cut off your head and feed your body to the birds and wild animals. And we will do the same thing to all the other Philistines too. Then all the world will know there is a God in Israel.

47 All the people gathered here will know that the Lord doesn't need swords or spears to save people. The battle belongs to the Lord, and he will help us defeat all of you."

48 Goliath the Philistine started to attack David. He slowly walked closer and closer toward David, but David ran out to meet Goliath.

49 David took out a stone from his bag. He put it in his sling and swung the sling. The stone flew from the sling and hit Goliath right between the eyes. The stone sank deep into his head, and Goliath fell to the ground�face down.

50 So David defeated the Philistine with only a sling and one stone! He hit the Philistine and killed him. David didn't have a sword,

51 so he ran and stood beside the Philistine. Then David took Goliath's own sword out of its sheath and used it to cut off his head. That is how David killed the Philistine. When the other Philistines saw their hero was dead, they turned and ran.

52 The soldiers of Israel and Judah shouted and started chasing the Philistines. The Israelites chased them all the way to the city limits of Gath and to the gates of Ekron. They killed many of the Philistines. Their bodies were scattered along the Shaaraim road all the way to Gath and Ekron.

53 After chasing the Philistines, the Israelites came back to the Philistine camp and took many things from that camp.

54 David took the Philistine's head to Jerusalem, but he kept the Philistine's weapons at home.

55 Saul watched David go out to fight Goliath. Saul spoke to Abner, the commander of the army. "Abner, who is that young man's father?" Abner answered, "I swear I don't know, sir."

56 King Saul said, "Find out who his father is."

57 When David came back after killing Goliath, Abner brought him to Saul. David was still holding the Philistine's head.

58 Saul asked him, "Young man, who is your father?" David answered, "I am the son of your servant Jesse, from Bethlehem."

1 Now the Philistines ^H6430 gathered together ^H622 ^H853 their armies ^H4264 to battle, ^H4421 and were gathered together ^H622 at Shochoh, ^H7755 which ^H834 belongeth to Judah, ^H3063 and pitched ^H2583 between ^H996 Shochoh ^H7755 and Azekah, ^H5825 in Ephes- ^H658 dammim.

2 And Saul ^H7586 and the men ^H376 of Israel ^H3478 were gathered together, ^H622 and pitched ^H2583 by the valley ^H6010 of Elah, ^H425 and set the battle ^H4421 in array ^H6186 against ^H7125 the Philistines. ^H6430

3 And the Philistines ^H6430 stood ^H5975 on ^H413 a mountain ^H2022 on the one side ^H4480 ^H2088 , and Israel ^H3478 stood ^H5975 on ^H413 a mountain ^H2022 on the other side ^H4480 ^H2088 : and there was a valley ^H1516 between ^H996 them.

4 And there went out ^H3318 a champion ^H376 ^H1143 out of the camp ^H4480 ^H4264 of the Philistines, ^H6430 named ^H8034 Goliath, ^H1555 of Gath ^H4480 ^H1661 , whose height ^H1363 was six ^H8337 cubits ^H520 and a span. ^H2239

5 And he had a helmet ^H3553 of brass ^H5178 upon ^H5921 his head, ^H7218 and he ^H1931 was armed ^H3847 with a coat ^H8302 of mail; ^H7193 and the weight ^H4948 of the coat ^H8302 was five ^H2568 thousand ^H505 shekels ^H8255 of brass. ^H5178

6 And he had greaves ^H4697 of brass ^H5178 upon ^H5921 his legs, ^H7272 and a target ^H3591 of brass ^H5178 between ^H996 his shoulders. ^H3802

7 And the staff ^H2671 of his spear ^H2595 was like a weaver's ^H707 beam; ^H4500 and his spear's ^H2595 head ^H3852 weighed six ^H8337 hundred ^H3967 shekels ^H8255 of iron: ^H1270 and one bearing ^H5375 a shield ^H6793 went ^H1980 before ^H6440 him.

8 And he stood ^H5975 and cried ^H7121 unto ^H413 the armies ^H4634 of Israel, ^H3478 and said ^H559 unto them, Why ^H4100 are ye come out ^H3318 to set your battle ^H4421 in array ^H6186 ? am not ^H3808 I ^H595 a Philistine, ^H6430 and ye ^H859 servants ^H5650 to Saul ^H7586 ? choose ^H1262 you a man ^H376 for you , and let him come down ^H3381 to ^H413 me.

9 If ^H518 he be able ^H3201 to fight ^H3898 with ^H854 me , and to kill ^H5221 me , then will we be ^H1961 your servants: ^H5650 but if ^H518 I ^H589 prevail ^H3201 against him , and kill ^H5221 him , then shall ye be ^H1961 our servants, ^H5650 and serve ^H5647 us.

10 And the Philistine ^H6430 said, ^H559 I ^H589 defy ^H2778 ^H853 the armies ^H4634 of Israel ^H3478 this ^H2088 day; ^H3117 give ^H5414 me a man, ^H376 that we may fight ^H3898 together. ^H3162

11 When Saul ^H7586 and all ^H3605 Israel ^H3478 heard ^H8085 ^H853 those ^H428 words ^H1697 of the Philistine, ^H6430 they were dismayed, ^H2865 and greatly ^H3966 afraid. ^H3372

12 Now David ^H1732 was the son ^H1121 of that ^H2088 Ephrathite ^H376 ^H673 of Bethlehem ^H4480 ^H1035 -judah , whose name ^H8034 was Jesse; ^H3448 and he had eight ^H8083 sons: ^H1121 and the man ^H376 went ^H935 among men ^H376 for an old ^H2204 man in the days ^H3117 of Saul. ^H7586

13 And the three ^H7969 eldest ^H1419 sons ^H1121 of Jesse ^H3448 went ^H1980 and followed ^H1980 ^H310 Saul ^H7586 to the battle: ^H4421 and the names ^H8034 of his three ^H7969 sons ^H1121 that ^H834 went ^H1980 to the battle ^H4421 were Eliab ^H446 the firstborn, ^H1060 and next ^H4932 unto him Abinadab, ^H41 and the third ^H7992 Shammah. ^H8048

14 And David ^H1732 was the youngest: ^H6996 and the three ^H7969 eldest ^H1419 followed ^H1980 ^H310 Saul. ^H7586

15 But David ^H1732 went ^H1980 and returned ^H7725 from ^H4480 ^H5921 Saul ^H7586 to feed ^H7462 ^H853 his father's ^H1 sheep ^H6629 at Bethlehem. ^H1035

16 And the Philistine ^H6430 drew near ^H5066 morning ^H7925 and evening, ^H6150 and presented himself ^H3320 forty ^H705 days. ^H3117

17 And Jesse ^H3448 said ^H559 unto David ^H1732 his son, ^H1121 Take ^H3947 now ^H4994 for thy brethren ^H251 an ephah ^H374 of this ^H2088 parched ^H7039 corn , and these ^H2088 ten ^H6235 loaves, ^H3899 and run ^H7323 to the camp ^H4264 to thy brethren; ^H251

18 And carry ^H935 these ^H428 ten ^H6235 cheeses ^H2757 ^H2461 unto the captain ^H8269 of their thousand, ^H505 and look how ^H6485 thy brethren ^H251 fare, ^H7965 and take ^H3947 their pledge. ^H6161

19 Now Saul, ^H7586 and they, ^H1992 and all ^H3605 the men ^H376 of Israel, ^H3478 were in the valley ^H6010 of Elah, ^H425 fighting ^H3898 with ^H5973 the Philistines. ^H6430

20 And David ^H1732 rose up early ^H7925 in the morning, ^H1242 and left ^H5203 ^H853 the sheep ^H6629 with ^H5921 a keeper, ^H8104 and took, ^H5375 and went, ^H1980 as ^H834 Jesse ^H3448 had commanded ^H6680 him ; and he came ^H935 to the trench, ^H4570 as the host ^H2428 was going forth ^H3318 to ^H413 the fight, ^H4634 and shouted ^H7321 for the battle. ^H4421

21 For Israel ^H3478 and the Philistines ^H6430 had put the battle in array, ^H6186 army ^H4634 against ^H7125 army. ^H4634

22 And David ^H1732 left ^H5203 ^H853 his carriage ^H3627 in ^H5921 the hand ^H3027 of the keeper ^H8104 of the carriage, ^H3627 and ran ^H7323 into the army, ^H4634 and came ^H935 and saluted ^H7592 ^H7965 his brethren. ^H251

23 And as he ^H1931 talked ^H1696 with ^H5973 them, behold, ^H2009 there came up ^H5927 the champion ^H376 ^H1143 , the Philistine ^H6430 of Gath ^H4480 ^H1661 , Goliath ^H1555 by name, ^H8034 out of the armies ^H4480 ^H4630 of the Philistines, ^H6430 and spoke ^H1696 according to the same ^H428 words: ^H1697 and David ^H1732 heard ^H8085 them .

24 And all ^H3605 the men ^H376 of Israel, ^H3478 when they saw ^H7200 ^H853 the man, ^H376 fled ^H5127 from ^H4480 ^H6440 him , and were sore ^H3966 afraid. ^H3372

25 And the men ^H376 of Israel ^H3478 said, ^H559 Have ye seen ^H7200 this ^H2088 man ^H376 that is come up ^H5927 ? surely ^H3588 to defy ^H2778 ^H853 Israel ^H3478 is he come up: ^H5927 and it shall be, ^H1961 that the man ^H376 who ^H834 killeth ^H5221 him , the king ^H4428 will enrich ^H6238 him with great ^H1419 riches, ^H6239 and will give ^H5414 him his daughter, ^H1323 and make ^H6213 his father's ^H1 house ^H1004 free ^H2670 in Israel. ^H3478

26 And David ^H1732 spoke ^H559 to ^H413 the men ^H376 that stood ^H5975 by ^H5973 him, saying, ^H559 What ^H4100 shall be done ^H6213 to the man ^H376 that ^H834 killeth ^H5221 ^H853 this ^H1975 Philistine, ^H6430 and taketh away ^H5493 the reproach ^H2781 from ^H4480 ^H5921 Israel ^H3478 ? for ^H3588 who ^H4310 is this ^H2088 uncircumcised ^H6189 Philistine, ^H6430 that ^H3588 he should defy ^H2778 the armies ^H4634 of the living ^H2416 God ^H430 ?

27 And the people ^H5971 answered ^H559 him after this ^H2088 manner, ^H1697 saying, ^H559 So ^H3541 shall it be done ^H6213 to the man ^H376 that ^H834 killeth ^H5221 him.

28 And Eliab ^H446 his eldest ^H1419 brother ^H251 heard ^H8085 when he spoke ^H1696 unto ^H413 the men; ^H376 and Eliab's ^H446 anger ^H639 was kindled ^H2734 against David, ^H1732 and he said, ^H559 Why ^H4100 camest thou down ^H3381 hither? and with ^H5921 whom ^H4310 hast thou left ^H5203 those ^H2007 few ^H4592 sheep ^H6629 in the wilderness ^H4057 ? I ^H589 know ^H3045 ^H853 thy pride, ^H2087 and the naughtiness ^H7455 of thine heart; ^H3824 for ^H3588 thou art come down ^H3381 that ^H4616 thou mightest see ^H7200 the battle. ^H4421

29 And David ^H1732 said, ^H559 What ^H4100 have I now ^H6258 done ^H6213 ? Is there not ^H3808 a cause ^H1697 ?

30 And he turned ^H5437 from ^H4480 ^H681 him toward another ^H413 H4136, ^H312 and spoke ^H559 after the same ^H2088 manner: ^H1697 and the people ^H5971 answered ^H1697 him again ^H7725 after the former ^H7223 manner. ^H1697

31 And when the words ^H1697 were heard ^H8085 which ^H834 David ^H1732 spoke, ^H1696 they rehearsed ^H5046 them before ^H6440 Saul: ^H7586 and he sent ^H3947 for him.

32 And David ^H1732 said ^H559 to ^H413 Saul, ^H7586 Let no ^H408 man's ^H120 heart ^H3820 fail ^H5307 because ^H5921 of him ; thy servant ^H5650 will go ^H1980 and fight ^H3898 with ^H5973 this ^H2088 Philistine. ^H6430

33 And Saul ^H7586 said ^H559 to ^H413 David, ^H1732 Thou art not ^H3808 able ^H3201 to go ^H1980 against ^H413 this ^H2088 Philistine ^H6430 to fight ^H3898 with ^H5973 him: for ^H3588 thou ^H859 art but a youth, ^H5288 and he ^H1931 a man ^H376 of war ^H4421 from his youth ^H4480 ^H5271 .

34 And David ^H1732 said ^H559 unto ^H413 Saul, ^H7586 Thy servant ^H5650 kept ^H1961 ^H7462 his father's ^H1 sheep, ^H6629 and there came ^H935 a lion, ^H738 and a bear, ^H1677 and took ^H5375 a lamb ^H7716 out of the flock ^H4480 ^H5739 :

35 And I went out ^H3318 after ^H310 him , and smote ^H5221 him , and delivered ^H5337 it out of his mouth ^H4480 ^H6310 : and when he arose ^H6965 against ^H5921 me , I caught ^H2388 him by his beard, ^H2206 and smote ^H5221 him , and slew ^H4191 him.

36 Thy servant ^H5650 slew ^H5221 both ^H1571 ^H853 the lion ^H738 and ^H1571 the bear: ^H1677 and this ^H2088 uncircumcised ^H6189 Philistine ^H6430 shall be ^H1961 as one ^H259 of ^H4480 them, seeing ^H3588 he hath defied ^H2778 the armies ^H4634 of the living ^H2416 God. ^H430

37 David ^H1732 said ^H559 moreover , The LORD ^H3068 that ^H834 delivered ^H5337 me out of the paw ^H4480 ^H3027 of the lion, ^H738 and out of the paw ^H4480 ^H3027 of the bear, ^H1677 he ^H1931 will deliver ^H5337 me out of the hand ^H4480 ^H3027 of this ^H2088 Philistine. ^H6430 And Saul ^H7586 said ^H559 unto ^H413 David, ^H1732 Go, ^H1980 and the LORD ^H3068 be ^H1961 with ^H5973 thee.

38 And Saul ^H7586 armed ^H3847 ^H853 David ^H1732 with his armor, ^H4055 and he put ^H5414 a helmet ^H6959 of brass ^H5178 upon ^H5921 his head; ^H7218 also he armed ^H3847 him with a coat of mail. ^H8302

39 And David ^H1732 girded ^H2296 ^H853 his sword ^H2719 upon ^H4480 ^H5921 his armor, ^H4055 and he attempted ^H2974 to go; ^H1980 for ^H3588 he had not ^H3808 proved ^H5254 it . And David ^H1732 said ^H559 unto ^H413 Saul, ^H7586 I cannot ^H3201 ^H3808 go ^H1980 with these; ^H428 for ^H3588 I have not ^H3808 proved ^H5254 them . And David ^H1732 put ^H5493 them off ^H4480 ^H5921 him.

40 And he took ^H3947 his staff ^H4731 in his hand, ^H3027 and chose ^H977 him five ^H2568 smooth ^H2512 stones ^H68 out of ^H4480 the brook, ^H5158 and put ^H7760 them in a shepherd's ^H7462 bag ^H3627 which ^H834 he had , even in a scrip; ^H3219 and his sling ^H7050 was in his hand: ^H3027 and he drew near ^H5066 to ^H413 the Philistine. ^H6430

41 And the Philistine ^H6430 came ^H1980 on ^H1980 and drew near ^H7131 unto ^H413 David; ^H1732 and the man ^H376 that bore ^H5375 the shield ^H6793 went before ^H6440 him.

42 And when the Philistine ^H6430 looked about, ^H5027 and saw ^H7200 ^H853 David, ^H1732 he disdained ^H959 him: for ^H3588 he was ^H1961 but a youth, ^H5288 and ruddy, ^H132 and of ^H5973 a fair ^H3303 countenance. ^H4758

43 And the Philistine ^H6430 said ^H559 unto ^H413 David, ^H1732 Am I ^H595 a dog, ^H3611 that ^H3588 thou ^H859 comest ^H935 to ^H413 me with staves ^H4731 ? And the Philistine ^H6430 cursed ^H7043 ^H853 David ^H1732 by his gods. ^H430

44 And the Philistine ^H6430 said ^H559 to ^H413 David, ^H1732 Come ^H1980 to ^H413 me , and I will give ^H5414 ^H853 thy flesh ^H1320 unto the fowls ^H5775 of the air, ^H8064 and to the beasts ^H929 of the field. ^H7704

45 Then said ^H559 David ^H1732 to ^H413 the Philistine, ^H6430 Thou ^H859 comest ^H935 to ^H413 me with a sword, ^H2719 and with a spear, ^H2595 and with a shield: ^H3591 but I ^H595 come ^H935 to ^H413 thee in the name ^H8034 of the LORD ^H3068 of hosts, ^H6635 the God ^H430 of the armies ^H4634 of Israel, ^H3478 whom ^H834 thou hast defied. ^H2778

46 This ^H2088 day ^H3117 will the LORD ^H3068 deliver ^H5462 thee into mine hand; ^H3027 and I will smite ^H5221 thee , and take ^H5493 ^H853 thine head ^H7218 from ^H4480 ^H5921 thee ; and I will give ^H5414 the carcasses ^H6297 of the host ^H4264 of the Philistines ^H6430 this ^H2088 day ^H3117 unto the fowls ^H5775 of the air, ^H8064 and to the wild beasts ^H2416 of the earth; ^H776 that all ^H3605 the earth ^H776 may know ^H3045 that ^H3588 there is ^H3426 a God ^H430 in Israel. ^H3478

47 And all ^H3605 this ^H2088 assembly ^H6951 shall know ^H3045 that ^H3588 the LORD ^H3068 saveth ^H3467 not ^H3808 with sword ^H2719 and spear: ^H2595 for ^H3588 the battle ^H4421 is the LORD's ^H3068 , and he will give ^H5414 you into our hands. ^H3027

48 And it came to pass, ^H1961 when ^H3588 the Philistine ^H6430 arose, ^H6965 and came ^H1980 and drew nigh ^H7126 to meet ^H7125 David, ^H1732 that David ^H1732 hasted, ^H4116 and ran ^H7323 toward the army ^H4634 to meet ^H7125 the Philistine. ^H6430

49 And David ^H1732 put ^H7971 ^H853 his hand ^H3027 in ^H413 his bag, ^H3627 and took ^H3947 thence ^H4480 ^H8033 a stone, ^H68 and slung ^H7049 it , and smote ^H5221 ^H853 the Philistine ^H6430 in ^H413 his forehead, ^H4696 that the stone ^H68 sunk ^H2883 into his forehead; ^H4696 and he fell ^H5307 upon ^H5921 his face ^H6440 to the earth. ^H776

50 So David ^H1732 prevailed ^H2388 over ^H4480 the Philistine ^H6430 with a sling ^H7050 and with a stone, ^H68 and smote ^H5221 ^H853 the Philistine, ^H6430 and slew ^H4191 him ; but there was no ^H369 sword ^H2719 in the hand ^H3027 of David. ^H1732

51 Therefore David ^H1732 ran, ^H7323 and stood ^H5975 upon ^H413 the Philistine, ^H6430 and took ^H3947 ^H853 his sword, ^H2719 and drew ^H8025 it out of the sheath ^H4480 ^H8593 thereof , and slew ^H4191 him , and cut off ^H3772 ^H853 his head ^H7218 therewith . And when the Philistines ^H6430 saw ^H7200 their champion ^H1368 was dead, ^H4191 they fled. ^H5127

52 And the men ^H376 of Israel ^H3478 and of Judah ^H3063 arose, ^H6965 and shouted, ^H7321 and pursued ^H7291 ^H853 the Philistines, ^H6430 until ^H5704 thou come ^H935 to the valley, ^H1516 and to ^H5704 the gates ^H8179 of Ekron. ^H6138 And the wounded ^H2491 of the Philistines ^H6430 fell down ^H5307 by the way ^H1870 to Shaaraim, ^H8189 even unto ^H5704 Gath, ^H1661 and unto ^H5704 Ekron. ^H6138

53 And the children ^H1121 of Israel ^H3478 returned ^H7725 from chasing ^H4480 ^H1814 after ^H310 the Philistines, ^H6430 and they spoiled ^H8155 ^H853 their tents. ^H4264

54 And David ^H1732 took ^H3947 ^H853 the head ^H7218 of the Philistine, ^H6430 and brought ^H935 it to Jerusalem; ^H3389 but he put ^H7760 his armor ^H3627 in his tent. ^H168

55 And when Saul ^H7586 saw ^H7200 ^H853 David ^H1732 go forth ^H3318 against ^H7125 the Philistine, ^H6430 he said ^H559 unto ^H413 Abner, ^H74 the captain ^H8269 of the host, ^H6635 Abner, ^H74 whose ^H4310 son ^H1121 is this ^H2088 youth ^H5288 ? And Abner ^H74 said, ^H559 As thy soul ^H5315 liveth, ^H2416 O king, ^H4428 I cannot ^H518 tell. ^H3045

56 And the king ^H4428 said, ^H559 Inquire ^H7592 thou ^H859 whose ^H4310 son ^H1121 the stripling ^H5958 is .

57 And as David ^H1732 returned ^H7725 from the slaughter ^H4480 ^H5221 of ^H853 the Philistine, ^H6430 Abner ^H74 took ^H3947 him , and brought ^H935 him before ^H6440 Saul ^H7586 with the head ^H7218 of the Philistine ^H6430 in his hand. ^H3027

58 And Saul ^H7586 said ^H559 to ^H413 him, Whose ^H4310 son ^H1121 art thou, ^H859 thou young man ^H5288 ? And David ^H1732 answered, ^H559 I am the son ^H1121 of thy servant ^H5650 Jesse ^H3448 the Bethlehemite. ^H1022
