1 Samuel 17:22

17:22 After David had entrusted his cargo to the care of the supply officer, ¹  he ran to the battlefront. When he arrived, he asked his brothers how they were doing.

1 Samuel 17:48

17:48 The Philistine drew steadily closer to David to attack him, while David quickly ran toward the battle line to attack the Philistine. ² 

1 Samuel 17:20

17:20 So David got up early in the morning and entrusted the flock to someone else who would watch over it. ³  After loading up, he went just as Jesse had instructed him. He arrived at the camp ⁴  as the army was going out to the battle lines shouting its battle cry.

[17:22]  ¹ tn Heb “the guard of the equipment.”

[17:48]  ² tc Most LXX mss lack the second half of v. 48.

[17:20]  ³ tn Heb “to a guard”; KJV, NASB, NRSV “with a keeper”; NIV “with a shepherd.” Since in contemporary English “guard” sounds like someone at a military installation or a prison, the present translation uses “to someone else who would watch over it.”

[17:20]  ⁴ tn Or “entrenchment.”
