1 Samuel 17:22-58

17:22

And David
<01732>

left
<05203> (8799)

his carriage
<03627>

in the hand
<03027>

of the keeper
<08104> (8802)

of the carriage
<03627>_,

and ran
<07323> (8799)

into the army
<04634>_,

and came
<0935> (8799)

and saluted
<07592> (8799) <07965>

his brethren
<0251>_.

{his carriage: Heb. the vessels from upon him} {saluted...: Heb. asked his brethren of peace}

17:23

And as he talked
<01696> (8764)

with them, behold, there came up
<05927> (8802)

the champion
<0376> <01143>_,

the Philistine
<06430>

of Gath
<01661>_,

Goliath
<01555>

by name
<08034>_,

out of the armies
<04634> (8675) <04630>

of the Philistines
<06430>_,

and spake
<01696> (8762)

according to the same
<0428>

words
<01697>_:

and David
<01732>

heard
<08085> (8799)

[them].

17:24

And all the men
<0376>

of Israel
<03478>_,

when they saw
<07200> (8800)

the man
<0376>_,

fled
<05127> (8799)

from him
<06440>_,

and were sore
<03966>

afraid
<03372> (8799)_.

{from...: Heb. from his face}

17:25

And the men
<0376>

of Israel
<03478>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Have ye seen
<07200> (8804)

this man
<0376>

that is come up
<05927> (8802)_?

surely to defy
<02778> (8763)

Israel
<03478>

is he come up
<05927> (8802)_:

and it shall be, [that] the man
<0376>

who killeth
<05221> (8686)

him, the king
<04428>

will enrich
<06238> (8686)

him with great
<01419>

riches
<06239>_,

and will give
<05414> (8799)

him his daughter
<01323>_,

and make
<06213> (8799)

his father's
<01>

house
<01004>

free
<02670>

in Israel
<03478>_.

17:26

And David
<01732>

spake
<0559> (8799)

to the men
<0582>

that stood
<05975> (8802)

by him, saying
<0559> (8800)_,

What shall be done
<06213> (8735)

to the man
<0376>

that killeth
<05221> (8686)

this
<01975>

Philistine
<06430>_,

and taketh away
<05493> (8689)

the reproach
<02781>

from Israel
<03478>_?

for who [is] this uncircumcised
<06189>

Philistine
<06430>_,

that he should defy
<02778> (8765)

the armies
<04634>

of the living
<02416>

God
<0430>_?

17:27

And the people
<05971>

answered
<0559> (8799)

him after this manner
<01697>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

So shall it be done
<06213> (8735)

to the man
<0376>

that killeth
<05221> (8686)

him.

17:28

And Eliab
<0446>

his eldest
<01419>

brother
<0251>

heard
<08085> (8799)

when he spake
<01696> (8763)

unto the men
<0582>_;

and Eliab's
<0446>

anger
<0639>

was kindled
<02734> (8799)

against David
<01732>_,

and he said
<0559> (8799)_,

Why camest thou down
<03381> (8804)

hither? and with whom hast thou left
<05203> (8804)

those
<02007>

few
<04592>

sheep
<06629>

in the wilderness
<04057>_?

I know
<03045> (8804)

thy pride
<02087>_,

and the naughtiness
<07455>

of thine heart
<03824>_;

for thou art come down
<03381> (8804)

that thou mightest see
<07200> (8800)

the battle
<04421>_.

17:29

And David
<01732>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

What have I now done
<06213> (8804)_?

[Is there] not a cause
<01697>_?

17:30

And he turned
<05437> (8735)

from him
<0681>

toward
<04136>

another
<0312>_,

and spake
<0559> (8799)

after the same manner
<01697>_:

and the people
<05971>

answered
<01697>

him again
<07725> (8686)

after the former
<07223>

manner
<01697>_.

{manner: Heb. word}

17:31

And when the words
<01697>

were heard
<08085> (8735)

which David
<01732>

spake
<01696> (8765)_,

they rehearsed
<05046> (8686)

[them] before
<06440>

Saul
<07586>_:

and he sent
<03947> (8799)

for him. {sent...: Heb. took him}

17:32

And David
<01732>

said
<0559> (8799)

to Saul
<07586>_,

Let no man's
<0120>

heart
<03820>

fail
<05307> (8799)

because of him; thy servant
<05650>

will go
<03212> (8799)

and fight
<03898> (8738)

with this Philistine
<06430>_.

17:33

And Saul
<07586>

said
<0559> (8799)

to David
<01732>_,

Thou art not able
<03201> (8799)

to go
<03212> (8800)

against this Philistine
<06430>

to fight
<03898> (8736)

with him: for thou [art but] a youth
<05288>_,

and he a man
<0376>

of war
<04421>

from his youth
<05271>_.

17:34

And David
<01732>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Saul
<07586>_,

Thy servant
<05650>

kept
<07462> (8802)

his father's
<01>

sheep
<06629>_,

and there came
<0935> (8804)

a lion
<0738>_,

and a bear
<01677>_,

and took
<05375> (8804)

a lamb
<07716> (8675) <02089>

out of the flock
<05739>_:

{lamb: or, kid}

17:35

And I went out
<03318> (8804)

after
<0310>

him, and smote
<05221> (8689)

him, and delivered
<05337> (8689)

[it] out of his mouth
<06310>_:

and when he arose
<06965> (8799)

against me, I caught
<02388> (8689)

[him] by his beard
<02206>_,

and smote
<05221> (8689)

him, and slew
<04191> (8689)

him.

17:36

Thy servant
<05650>

slew
<05221> (8689)

both the lion
<0738>

and the bear
<01677>_:

and this uncircumcised
<06189>

Philistine
<06430>

shall be as one
<0259>

of them, seeing he hath defied
<02778> (8765)

the armies
<04634>

of the living
<02416>

God
<0430>_.

17:37

David
<01732>

said
<0559> (8799)

moreover, The LORD
<03068>

that delivered
<05337> (8689)

me out of the paw
<03027>

of the lion
<0738>_,

and out of the paw
<03027>

of the bear
<01677>_,

he will deliver
<05337> (8686)

me out of the hand
<03027>

of this Philistine
<06430>_.

And Saul
<07586>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto David
<01732>_,

Go
<03212> (8798)_,

and the LORD
<03068>

be with thee.

17:38

And Saul
<07586>

armed
<03847> (8686)

David
<01732>

with his armour
<04055>_,

and he put
<05414> (8804)

an helmet
<06959>

of brass
<05178>

upon his head
<07218>_;

also he armed
<03847> (8686)

him with a coat of mail
<08302>_.

{armed David...: Heb. clothed David with his clothes}

17:39

And David
<01732>

girded
<02296> (8799)

his sword
<02719>

upon his armour
<04055>_,

and he assayed
<02974> (8686)

to go
<03212> (8800)_;

for he had not proved
<05254> (8765)

[it]. And David
<01732>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Saul
<07586>_,

I cannot
<03201> (8799)

go
<03212> (8800)

with these; for I have not proved
<05254> (8765)

[them]. And David
<01732>

put
<05493> (8686)

them off him.

17:40

And he took
<03947> (8799)

his staff
<04731>

in his hand
<03027>_,

and chose
<0977> (8799)

him five
<02568>

smooth
<02512>

stones
<068>

out of the brook
<05158>_,

and put
<07760> (8799)

them in a shepherd's
<07462> (8802)

bag
<03627>

which he had, even in a scrip
<03219>_;

and his sling
<07050>

[was] in his hand
<03027>_:

and he drew near
<05066> (8799)

to the Philistine
<06430>_.

{brook: or, valley} {bag: Heb. vessel}

17:41

And the Philistine
<06430>

came
<03212> (8799)

on
<01980> (8802)

and drew near
<07131>

unto David
<01732>_;

and the man
<0376>

that bare
<05375> (8802)

the shield
<06793>

[went] before
<06440>

him.

17:42

And when the Philistine
<06430>

looked about
<05027> (8686)_,

and saw
<07200> (8799)

David
<01732>_,

he disdained
<0959> (8799)

him: for he was [but] a youth
<05288>_,

and ruddy
<0132>_,

and of a fair
<03303>

countenance
<04758>_.

17:43

And the Philistine
<06430>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto David
<01732>_,

[Am] I a dog
<03611>_,

that thou comest
<0935> (8802)

to me with staves
<04731>_?

And the Philistine
<06430>

cursed
<07043> (8762)

David
<01732>

by his gods
<0430>_.

17:44

And the Philistine
<06430>

said
<0559> (8799)

to David
<01732>_,

Come
<03212> (8798)

to me, and I will give
<05414> (8799)

thy flesh
<01320>

unto the fowls
<05775>

of the air
<08064>_,

and to the beasts
<0929>

of the field
<07704>_.

17:45

Then said
<0559> (8799)

David
<01732>

to the Philistine
<06430>_,

Thou comest
<0935> (8802)

to me with a sword
<02719>_,

and with a spear
<02595>_,

and with a shield
<03591>_:

but I come
<0935> (8802)

to thee in the name
<08034>

of the LORD
<03068>

of hosts
<06635>_,

the God
<0430>

of the armies
<04634>

of Israel
<03478>_,

whom thou hast defied
<02778> (8765)_.

17:46

This day
<03117>

will the LORD
<03068>

deliver
<05462> (8762)

thee into mine hand
<03027>_;

and I will smite
<05221> (8689)

thee, and take
<05493> (8689)

thine head
<07218>

from thee; and I will give
<05414> (8804)

the carcases
<06297>

of the host
<04264>

of the Philistines
<06430>

this day
<03117>

unto the fowls
<05775>

of the air
<08064>_,

and to the wild beasts
<02416>

of the earth
<0776>_;

that all the earth
<0776>

may know
<03045> (8799)

that there is
<03426>

a God
<0430>

in Israel
<03478>_.

{deliver...: Heb. shut thee up}

17:47

And all this assembly
<06951>

shall know
<03045> (8799)

that the LORD
<03068>

saveth
<03467> (8686)

not with sword
<02719>

and spear
<02595>_:

for the battle
<04421>

[is] the LORD'S
<03068>_,

and he will give
<05414> (8804)

you into our hands
<03027>_.

17:48

And it came to pass, when the Philistine
<06430>

arose
<06965> (8804)_,

and came
<03212> (8799)

and drew nigh
<07126> (8799)

to meet
<07125> (8800)

David
<01732>_,

that David
<01732>

hasted
<04116> (8762)_,

and ran
<07323> (8799)

toward the army
<04634>

to meet
<07125> (8800)

the Philistine
<06430>_.

17:49

And David
<01732>

put
<07971> (8799)

his hand
<03027>

in his bag
<03627>_,

and took
<03947> (8799)

thence a stone
<068>_,

and slang
<07049> (8762)

[it], and smote
<05221> (8686)

the Philistine
<06430>

in his forehead
<04696>_,

that the stone
<068>

sunk
<02883> (8799)

into his forehead
<04696>_;

and he fell
<05307> (8799)

upon his face
<06440>

to the earth
<0776>_.

17:50

So David
<01732>

prevailed
<02388> (8799)

over
<04480>

the Philistine
<06430>

with a sling
<07050>

and with a stone
<068>_,

and smote
<05221> (8686)

the Philistine
<06430>_,

and slew
<04191> (8686)

him; but [there was] no sword
<02719>

in the hand
<03027>

of David
<01732>_.

17:51

Therefore David
<01732>

ran
<07323> (8799)_,

and stood
<05975> (8799)

upon the Philistine
<06430>_,

and took
<03947> (8799)

his sword
<02719>_,

and drew
<08025> (8799)

it out of the sheath
<08593>

thereof, and slew
<04191> (8787)

him, and cut off
<03772> (8799)

his head
<07218>

therewith. And when the Philistines
<06430>

saw
<07200> (8799)

their champion
<01368>

was dead
<04191> (8804)_,

they fled
<05127> (8799)_.

17:52

And the men
<0582>

of Israel
<03478>

and of Judah
<03063>

arose
<06965> (8799)_,

and shouted
<07321> (8686)_,

and pursued
<07291> (8799)

the Philistines
<06430>_,

until thou come
<0935> (8800)

to the valley
<01516>_,

and to the gates
<08179>

of Ekron
<06138>_.

And the wounded
<02491>

of the Philistines
<06430>

fell down
<05307> (8799)

by the way
<01870>

to Shaaraim
<08189>_,

even unto Gath
<01661>_,

and unto Ekron
<06138>_.

17:53

And the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>

returned
<07725> (8799)

from chasing
<01814> (8800)

after
<0310>

the Philistines
<06430>_,

and they spoiled
<08155> (8799)

their tents
<04264>_.

17:54

And David
<01732>

took
<03947> (8799)

the head
<07218>

of the Philistine
<06430>_,

and brought
<0935> (8686)

it to Jerusalem
<03389>_;

but he put
<07760> (8804)

his armour
<03627>

in his tent
<0168>_.

17:55

And when Saul
<07586>

saw
<07200> (8800)

David
<01732>

go forth
<03318> (8802)

against
<07125> (8800)

the Philistine
<06430>_,

he said
<0559> (8804)

unto Abner
<074>_,

the captain
<08269>

of the host
<06635>_,

Abner
<074>_,

whose son
<01121>

[is] this youth
<05288>_?

And Abner
<074>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

[As] thy soul
<05315>

liveth
<02416>_,

O king
<04428>_,

I cannot
<0518>

tell
<03045> (8804)_.

17:56

And the king
<04428>

said
<0559> (8799)_,

Enquire
<07592> (8798)

thou whose son
<01121>

the stripling
<05958>

[is].

17:57

And as David
<01732>

returned
<07725> (8800)

from the slaughter
<05221> (8687)

of the Philistine
<06430>_,

Abner
<074>

took
<03947> (8799)

him, and brought
<0935> (8686)

him before
<06440>

Saul
<07586>

with the head
<07218>

of the Philistine
<06430>

in his hand
<03027>_.

17:58

And Saul
<07586>

said
<0559> (8799)

to him, Whose son
<01121>

[art] thou, [thou] young man
<05288>_?

And David
<01732>

answered
<0559> (8799)_,

I [am] the son
<01121>

of thy servant
<05650>

Jesse
<03448>

the Bethlehemite
<01022>_.
