[1] Now the Philistines gathered together their armies to battle; and they were gathered together at Socoh, which belongs to Judah, and encamped between Socoh and Azekah in Ephesdammim. [2] Saul and the men of Israel were gathered together, and encamped in the valley of Elah, and set the battle in array against the Philistines. [3] The Philistines stood on the mountain on the one side, and Israel stood on the mountain on the other side: and there was a valley between them. [4] A champion out of the camp of the Philistines named Goliath of Gath, whose height was six cubits and a spanⓘ went out. [5] He had a helmet of bronze on his head, and he wore a coat of mail; and the weight of the coat was five thousand shekelsⓘ of bronze. [6] He had bronze shin armor on his legs and a bronze javelin between his shoulders. [7] The staff of his spear was like a weaver’s beam; and his spear’s head weighed six hundred shekels of iron.ⓘ His shield bearer went before him. [8] He stood and cried to the armies of Israel, and said to them, “Why have you come out to set your battle in array? Am I not a Philistine, and you servants to Saul? Choose a man for yourselves, and let him come down to me. [9] If he is able to fight with me and kill me, then will we be your servants; but if I prevail against him and kill him, then you will be our servants and serve us.” [10] The Philistine said, “I defy the armies of Israel today! Give me a man, that we may fight together!” [11] When Saul and all Israel heard those words of the Philistine, they were dismayed and greatly afraid. [12] Now David was the son of that Ephrathite of Bethlehem Judah, whose name was Jesse; and he had eight sons. The man was an elderly old man in the days of Saul. [13] The three oldest sons of Jesse had gone after Saul to the battle; and the names of his three sons who went to the battle were Eliab the firstborn, and next to him Abinadab, and the third Shammah. [14] David was the youngest; and the three oldest followed Saul. [15] Now David went back and forth from Saul to feed his father’s sheep at Bethlehem. [16] The Philistine came near morning and evening, and presented himself forty days. [17] Jesse said to David his son, “Now take for your brothers an ephahⓘ of this parched grain and these ten loaves, and carry them quickly to the camp to your brothers; [18] and bring these ten cheeses to the captain of their thousand; and see how your brothers are doing, and bring back news.” [19] Now Saul, and they, and all the men of Israel were in the valley of Elah, fighting with the Philistines. [20] David rose up early in the morning and left the sheep with a keeper, and took the provisions and went, as Jesse had commanded him. He came to the place of the wagons as the army which was going out to the fight shouted for the battle. [21] Israel and the Philistines put the battle in array, army against army. [22] David left his baggage in the hand of the keeper of the baggage and ran to the army, and came and greeted his brothers. [23] As he talked with them, behold, the champion, the Philistine of Gath, Goliath by name, came up out of the ranks of the Philistines, and said the same words; and David heard them. [24] All the men of Israel, when they saw the man, fled from him and were terrified. [25] The men of Israel said, “Have you seen this man who has come up? He has surely come up to defy Israel. The king will give great riches to the man who kills him, and will give him his daughter, and will make his father’s house tax-free in Israel.” [26] David spoke to the men who stood by him, saying, “What shall be done to the man who kills this Philistine and takes away the reproach from Israel? For who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living God?” [27] The people answered him in this way, saying, “So shall it be done to the man who kills him.” [28] Eliab his oldest brother heard when he spoke to the men; and Eliab’s anger burned against David, and he said, “Why have you come down? With whom have you left those few sheep in the wilderness? I know your pride and the evil of your heart; for you have come down that you might see the battle.” [29] David said, “What have I now done? Is there not a cause?” [30] He turned away from him toward another, and spoke like that again; and the people answered him again the same way. [31] When the words were heard which David spoke, they rehearsed them before Saul; and he sent for him. [32] David said to Saul, “Let no man’s heart fail because of him. Your servant will go and fight with this Philistine.” [33] Saul said to David, “You are not able to go against this Philistine to fight with him; for you are but a youth, and he a man of war from his youth.” [34] David said to Saul, “Your servant was keeping his father’s sheep; and when a lion or a bear came and took a lamb out of the flock, [35] I went out after him, struck him, and rescued it out of his mouth. When he arose against me, I caught him by his beard, struck him, and killed him. [36] Your servant struck both the lion and the bear. This uncircumcised Philistine shall be as one of them, since he has defied the armies of the living God.” [37] David said, “Yahweh, who delivered me out of the paw of the lion and out of the paw of the bear, will deliver me out of the hand of this Philistine.”Saul said to David, “Go! Yahweh will be with you.” [38] Saul dressed David with his clothing. He put a helmet of bronze on his head, and he clad him with a coat of mail. [39] David strapped his sword on his clothing and he tried to move, for he had not tested it. David said to Saul, “I can’t go with these, for I have not tested them.” Then David took them off. [40] He took his staff in his hand, and chose for himself five smooth stones out of the brook, and put them in the pouch of his shepherd’s bag which he had. His sling was in his hand; and he came near to the Philistine. [41] The Philistine walked and came near to David; and the man who bore the shield went before him. [42] When the Philistine looked around and saw David, he disdained him; for he was but a youth, and ruddy, and had a good looking face. [43] The Philistine said to David, “Am I a dog, that you come to me with sticks?” The Philistine cursed David by his gods. [44] The Philistine said to David, “Come to me, and I will give your flesh to the birds of the sky and to the animals of the field.” [45] Then David said to the Philistine, “You come to me with a sword, with a spear, and with a javelin; but I come to you in the name of Yahweh of Armies, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied. [46] Today, Yahweh will deliver you into my hand. I will strike you and take your head from off you. I will give the dead bodies of the army of the Philistines today to the birds of the sky and to the wild animals of the earth, that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel, [47] and that all this assembly may know that Yahweh doesn’t save with sword and spear; for the battle is Yahweh’s, and he will give you into our hand.” [48] When the Philistine arose, and walked and came near to meet David, David hurried and ran toward the army to meet the Philistine. [49] David put his hand in his bag, took a stone and slung it, and struck the Philistine in his forehead. The stone sank into his forehead, and he fell on his face to the earth. [50] So David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling and with a stone, and struck the Philistine and killed him; but there was no sword in David’s hand. [51] Then David ran, stood over the Philistine, took his sword, drew it out of its sheath, killed him, and cut off his head with it.When the Philistines saw that their champion was dead, they fled. [52] The men of Israel and of Judah arose and shouted, and pursued the Philistines as far as Gai and to the gates of Ekron. The wounded of the Philistines fell down by the way to Shaaraim, even to Gath and to Ekron. [53] The children of Israel returned from chasing after the Philistines, and they plundered their camp. [54] David took the head of the Philistine and brought it to Jerusalem, but he put his armor in his tent. [55] When Saul saw David go out against the Philistine, he said to Abner, the captain of the army, “Abner, whose son is this youth?”Abner said, “As your soul lives, O king, I can’t tell.” [56] The king said, “Inquire whose son the young man is!” [57] As David returned from the slaughter of the Philistine, Abner took him and brought him before Saul with the head of the Philistine in his hand. [58] Saul said to him, “Whose son are you, you young man?”David answered, “I am the son of your servant Jesse the Bethlehemite.”

  1. A cubit is the length from the tip of the middle finger to the elbow on a man’s arm, or about 18 inches or 46 centimeters. A span is the length from the tip of a man’s thumb to the tip of his little finger when his hand is stretched out (about half a cubit, or 9 inches, or 22.8 cm.) Therefore, Goliath was about 9 feet and 9 inches or 2.97 meters tall.

[1] Now the PhilistinesH6430 gathered togetherH622(QalImpf) their armiesH4264 to battle,H4421 and were gathered togetherH622(NiphImpf) at Shochoh,H7755 which [belongeth] to Judah,H3063 and pitchedH2583(QalImpf) between ShochohH7755 and Azekah,H5825 in Ephesdammim.H658 [2] And SaulH7586 and the menH376 of IsraelH3478 were gathered together,H622(NiphPerf) and pitchedH2583(QalImpf) by the valleyH6010 of Elah,H425 and set the battleH4421 in arrayH6186(QalImpf) againstH7125(QalInf) the Philistines.H6430 [3] And the PhilistinesH6430 stoodH5975(QalActPtc) on a mountainH2022 on the one side, and IsraelH3478 stoodH5975(QalActPtc) on a mountainH2022 on the other side: and [there was] a valleyH1516 between them. [4] And there went outH3318(QalImpf) a championH376 out of the campH4264 of the Philistines,H6430 namedH8034 Goliath,H1555 of Gath,H1661 whose heightH1363 [was] sixH8337 cubitsH520 and a span.H2239 [5] And [he had] an helmetH3553 of brassH5178 upon his head,H7218 and he [was] armedH3847(QalPasPtc) with a coatH8302 of mail;H7193 and the weightH4948 of the coatH8302 [was] fiveH2568 thousandH505 shekelsH8255 of brass.H5178 [6] And [he had] greavesH4697 of brassH5178 upon his legs,H7272 and a targetH3591 of brassH5178 between his shoulders.H3802 [7] And the staffH6086(Qere) of his spearH2595 [was] like a weaver’sH707(QalActPtc) beam;H4500 and his spear’sH2595 headH3852 [weighed] sixH8337 hundredH3967 shekelsH8255 of iron:H1270 and one bearingH5375(QalActPtc) a shieldH6793 wentH1980(QalActPtc) beforeH6440 him. [8] And he stoodH5975(QalImpf) and criedH7121(QalImpf) unto the armiesH4634 of Israel,H3478 and saidH559(QalImpf) unto them, Why are ye come outH3318(QalImpf) to set [your] battleH4421 in array?H6186(QalInf) [am] not I a Philistine,H6430 and ye servantsH5650 to Saul?H7586 chooseH1262(QalImpv) you a manH376 for you, and let him come downH3381(QalImpf) to me. [9] If he be ableH3201(QalImpf) to fightH3898(NiphInf) with me, and to killH5221(HiphPerf) me, then will we be your servants:H5650 but if I prevailH3201(QalImpf) against him, and killH5221(HiphPerf) him, then shall ye be our servants,H5650 and serveH5647(QalPerf) us. [10] And the PhilistineH6430 said,H559(QalImpf) I defyH2778(PielPerf) the armiesH4634 of IsraelH3478 this day;H3117 giveH5414(QalImpv) me a man,H376 that we may fightH3898(NiphImpf) together.H3162 [11] When SaulH7586 and all IsraelH3478 heardH8085(QalImpf) those wordsH1697 of the Philistine,H6430 they were dismayed,H2865(NiphImpf) and greatlyH3966 afraid.H3372(QalImpf) [12] Now DavidH1732 [was] the sonH1121 of that EphrathiteH376 of Bethlehemjudah,H1035 whose nameH8034 [was] Jesse;H3448 and he had eightH8083 sons:H1121 and the manH376 wentH935(QalPerf) among menH582 [for] an old manH2204(QalPerf) in the daysH3117 of Saul.H7586 [13] And the threeH7969 eldestH1419 sonsH1121 of JesseH3448 wentH3212(QalImpf) [and] followedH310 SaulH7586 to the battle:H4421 and the namesH8034 of his threeH7969 sonsH1121 that wentH1980(QalPerf) to the battleH4421 [were] EliabH446 the firstborn,H1060 and nextH4932 unto him Abinadab,H41 and the thirdH7992 Shammah.H8048 [14] And DavidH1732 [was] the youngest:H6996 and the threeH7969 eldestH1419 followedH1980(QalPerf) Saul.H7586 [15] But DavidH1732 wentH1980(QalActPtc) and returnedH7725(QalActPtc) from SaulH7586 to feedH7462(QalInf) his father’sH1 sheepH6629 at Bethlehem.H1035 [16] And the PhilistineH6430 drew nearH5066(QalImpf) morningH7925(HiphInf) and evening,H6150(HiphInf) and presentedH3320(HithImpf) himself fortyH705 days.H3117 [17] And JesseH3448 saidH559(QalImpf) unto DavidH1732 his son,H1121 TakeH3947(QalImpv) now for thy brethrenH251 an ephahH374 of thisH2088 parchedH7039 [corn], and these tenH6235 loaves,H3899 and runH7323(HiphImpv) to the campH4264 to thy brethren;H251 [18] And carryH935(HiphImpf) these tenH6235 cheesesH2461 unto the captainH8269 of [their] thousand,H505 and lookH6485(QalImpf) how thy brethrenH251 fare,H7965 and takeH3947(QalImpf) their pledge.H6161 [19] Now Saul,H7586 and they, and all the menH376 of Israel,H3478 [were] in the valleyH6010 of Elah,H425 fightingH3898(NiphPtc) with the Philistines.H6430 [20] And DavidH1732 rose up earlyH7925(HiphImpf) in the morning,H1242 and leftH5203(QalImpf) the sheepH6629 with a keeper,H8104(QalActPtc) and took,H5375(QalImpf) and went,H3212(QalImpf) as JesseH3448 had commandedH6680(PielPerf) him; and he cameH935(QalImpf) to the trench,H4570 as the hostH2428 was going forthH3318(QalActPtc) to the fight,H4634 and shoutedH7321(HiphPerf) for the battle.H4421 [21] For IsraelH3478 and the PhilistinesH6430 had put the battle in array,H6186(QalImpf) armyH4634 againstH7125(QalInf) army.H4634 [22] And DavidH1732 leftH5203(QalImpf) his carriageH3627 in the handH3027 of the keeperH8104(QalActPtc) of the carriage,H3627 and ranH7323(QalImpf) into the army,H4634 and cameH935(QalImpf) and salutedH7592(QalImpf) his brethren.H251 [23] And as he talkedH1696(PielPtc) with them, behold, there came upH5927(QalActPtc) the champion,H376 the PhilistineH6430 of Gath,H1661 GoliathH1555 by name,H8034 out of the armiesH4634(Qere) of the Philistines,H6430 and spakeH1696(PielImpf) according to the sameH428 words:H1697 and DavidH1732 heardH8085(QalImpf) [them]. [24] And all the menH376 of Israel,H3478 when they sawH7200(QalInf) the man,H376 fledH5127(QalImpf) from him,H6440 and were soreH3966 afraid.H3372(QalImpf) [25] And the menH376 of IsraelH3478 said,H559(QalImpf) Have ye seenH7200(QalPerf) this manH376 that is come up?H5927(QalActPtc) surely to defyH2778(PielInf) IsraelH3478 is he come up:H5927(QalActPtc) and it shall be, [that] the manH376 who killethH5221(HiphImpf) him, the kingH4428 will enrichH6238(HiphImpf) him with greatH1419 riches,H6239 and will giveH5414(QalImpf) him his daughter,H1323 and makeH6213(QalImpf) his father’sH1 houseH1004 freeH2670 in Israel.H3478 [26] And DavidH1732 spakeH559(QalImpf) to the menH582 that stoodH5975(QalActPtc) by him, saying,H559(QalInf) What shall be doneH6213(NiphImpf) to the manH376 that killethH5221(HiphImpf) thisH1975 Philistine,H6430 and taketh awayH5493(HiphPerf) the reproachH2781 from Israel?H3478 for who [is] this uncircumcisedH6189 Philistine,H6430 that he should defyH2778(PielPerf) the armiesH4634 of the livingH2416 God?H430 [27] And the peopleH5971 answeredH559(QalImpf) him after this manner,H1697 saying,H559(QalInf) So shall it be doneH6213(NiphImpf) to the manH376 that killethH5221(HiphImpf) him. [28] And EliabH446 his eldestH1419 brotherH251 heardH8085(QalImpf) when he spakeH1696(PielInf) unto the men;H582 and Eliab’sH446 angerH639 was kindledH2734(QalImpf) against David,H1732 and he said,H559(QalImpf) Why camest thou downH3381(QalPerf) hither? and with whom hast thou leftH5203(QalPerf) thoseH2007 fewH4592 sheepH6629 in the wilderness?H4057 I knowH3045(QalPerf) thy pride,H2087 and the naughtinessH7455 of thine heart;H3824 for thou art come downH3381(QalPerf) that thou mightest seeH7200(QalInf) the battle.H4421 [29] And DavidH1732 said,H559(QalImpf) What have I now done?H6213(QalPerf) [Is there] not a cause?H1697 [30] And he turnedH5437(NiphImpf) from himH681 towardH4136 another,H312 and spakeH559(QalImpf) after the same manner:H1697 and the peopleH5971 answeredH1697 him againH7725(HiphImpf) after the formerH7223 manner.H1697 [31] And when the wordsH1697 were heardH8085(NiphImpf) which DavidH1732 spake,H1696(PielPerf) they rehearsedH5046(HiphImpf) [them] beforeH6440 Saul:H7586 and he sentH3947(QalImpf) for him. [32] And DavidH1732 saidH559(QalImpf) to Saul,H7586 Let no man’sH120 heartH3820 failH5307(QalImpf) because of him; thy servantH5650 will goH3212(QalImpf) and fightH3898(NiphPerf) with this Philistine.H6430 [33] And SaulH7586 saidH559(QalImpf) to David,H1732 Thou art not ableH3201(QalImpf) to goH3212(QalInf) against this PhilistineH6430 to fightH3898(NiphInf) with him: for thou [art but] a youth,H5288 and he a manH376 of warH4421 from his youth.H5271 [34] And DavidH1732 saidH559(QalImpf) unto Saul,H7586 Thy servantH5650 keptH7462(QalActPtc) his father’sH1 sheep,H6629 and there cameH935(QalPerf) a lion,H738 and a bear,H1677 and tookH5375(QalPerf) a lambH7716(Qere) out of the flock:H5739 [35] And I went outH3318(QalPerf) afterH310 him, and smoteH5221(HiphPerf) him, and deliveredH5337(HiphPerf) [it] out of his mouth:H6310 and when he aroseH6965(QalImpf) against me, I caughtH2388(HiphPerf) [him] by his beard,H2206 and smoteH5221(HiphPerf) him, and slewH4191(HiphPerf) him. [36] Thy servantH5650 slewH5221(HiphPerf) both the lionH738 and the bear:H1677 and this uncircumcisedH6189 PhilistineH6430 shall be as oneH259 of them, seeing he hath defiedH2778(PielPerf) the armiesH4634 of the livingH2416 God.H430 [37] DavidH1732 saidH559(QalImpf) moreover, The LordH3068 that deliveredH5337(HiphPerf) me out of the pawH3027 of the lion,H738 and out of the pawH3027 of the bear,H1677 he will deliverH5337(HiphImpf) me out of the handH3027 of this Philistine.H6430 And SaulH7586 saidH559(QalImpf) unto David,H1732 Go,H3212(QalImpv) and the LordH3068 be with thee. [38] And SaulH7586 armedH3847(HiphImpf) DavidH1732 with his armour,H4055 and he putH5414(QalPerf) an helmetH6959 of brassH5178 upon his head;H7218 also he armedH3847(HiphImpf) him with a coat of mail.H8302 [39] And DavidH1732 girdedH2296(QalImpf) his swordH2719 upon his armour,H4055 and he assayedH2974(HiphImpf) to go;H3212(QalInf) for he had not provedH5254(PielPerf) [it]. And DavidH1732 saidH559(QalImpf) unto Saul,H7586 I cannotH3201(QalImpf) goH3212(QalInf) with these; for I have not provedH5254(PielPerf) [them]. And DavidH1732 putH5493(HiphImpf) them off him. [40] And he tookH3947(QalImpf) his staffH4731 in his hand,H3027 and choseH977(QalImpf) him fiveH2568 smoothH2512 stonesH68 out of the brook,H5158 and putH7760(QalImpf) them in a shepherd’sH7462(QalActPtc) bagH3627 which he had, even in a scrip;H3219 and his slingH7050 [was] in his hand:H3027 and he drew nearH5066(QalImpf) to the Philistine.H6430 [41] And the PhilistineH6430 cameH3212(QalImpf) onH1980(QalActPtc) and drew nearH7131 unto David;H1732 and the manH376 that bareH5375(QalActPtc) the shieldH6793 [went] beforeH6440 him. [42] And when the PhilistineH6430 looked about,H5027(HiphImpf) and sawH7200(QalImpf) David,H1732 he disdainedH959(QalImpf) him: for he was [but] a youth,H5288 and ruddy,H132 and of a fairH3303 countenance.H4758 [43] And the PhilistineH6430 saidH559(QalImpf) unto David,H1732 [Am] I a dog,H3611 that thou comestH935(QalActPtc) to me with staves?H4731 And the PhilistineH6430 cursedH7043(PielImpf) DavidH1732 by his gods.H430 [44] And the PhilistineH6430 saidH559(QalImpf) to David,H1732 ComeH3212(QalImpv) to me, and I will giveH5414(QalImpf) thy fleshH1320 unto the fowlsH5775 of the air,H8064 and to the beastsH929 of the field.H7704 [45] Then saidH559(QalImpf) DavidH1732 to the Philistine,H6430 Thou comestH935(QalActPtc) to me with a sword,H2719 and with a spear,H2595 and with a shield:H3591 but I comeH935(QalActPtc) to thee in the nameH8034 of the LordH3068 of hosts,H6635 the GodH430 of the armiesH4634 of Israel,H3478 whom thou hast defied.H2778(PielPerf) [46] This dayH3117 will the LordH3068 deliverH5462(PielImpf) thee into mine hand;H3027 and I will smiteH5221(HiphPerf) thee, and takeH5493(HiphPerf) thine headH7218 from thee; and I will giveH5414(QalPerf) the carcasesH6297 of the hostH4264 of the PhilistinesH6430 this dayH3117 unto the fowlsH5775 of the air,H8064 and to the wild beastsH2416 of the earth;H776 that all the earthH776 may knowH3045(QalImpf) that there isH3426 a GodH430 in Israel.H3478 [47] And all this assemblyH6951 shall knowH3045(QalImpf) that the LordH3068 savethH3467(HiphImpf) not with swordH2719 and spear:H2595 for the battleH4421 [is] the Lord’s,H3068 and he will giveH5414(QalPerf) you into our hands.H3027 [48] And it came to pass, when the PhilistineH6430 arose,H6965(QalPerf) and cameH3212(QalImpf) and drew nighH7126(QalImpf) to meetH7125(QalInf) David,H1732 that DavidH1732 hasted,H4116(PielImpf) and ranH7323(QalImpf) toward the armyH4634 to meetH7125(QalInf) the Philistine.H6430 [49] And DavidH1732 putH7971(QalImpf) his handH3027 in his bag,H3627 and tookH3947(QalImpf) thence a stone,H68 and slangH7049(PielImpf) [it], and smoteH5221(HiphImpf) the PhilistineH6430 in his forehead,H4696 that the stoneH68 sunkH2883(QalImpf) into his forehead;H4696 and he fellH5307(QalImpf) upon his faceH6440 to the earth.H776 [50] So DavidH1732 prevailedH2388(QalImpf) overH4480 the PhilistineH6430 with a slingH7050 and with a stone,H68 and smoteH5221(HiphImpf) the Philistine,H6430 and slewH4191(HiphImpf) him; but [there was] no swordH2719 in the handH3027 of David.H1732 [51] Therefore DavidH1732 ran,H7323(QalImpf) and stoodH5975(QalImpf) upon the Philistine,H6430 and tookH3947(QalImpf) his sword,H2719 and drewH8025(QalImpf) it out of the sheathH8593 thereof, and slewH4191(PoleImpf) him, and cut offH3772(QalImpf) his headH7218 therewith. And when the PhilistinesH6430 sawH7200(QalImpf) their championH1368 was dead,H4191(QalPerf) they fled.H5127(QalImpf) [52] And the menH582 of IsraelH3478 and of JudahH3063 arose,H6965(QalImpf) and shouted,H7321(HiphImpf) and pursuedH7291(QalImpf) the Philistines,H6430 until thou comeH935(QalInf) to the valley,H1516 and to the gatesH8179 of Ekron.H6138 And the woundedH2491 of the PhilistinesH6430 fell downH5307(QalImpf) by the wayH1870 to Shaaraim,H8189 even unto Gath,H1661 and unto Ekron.H6138 [53] And the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 returnedH7725(QalImpf) from chasingH1814(QalInf) afterH310 the Philistines,H6430 and they spoiledH8155(QalImpf) their tents.H4264 [54] And DavidH1732 tookH3947(QalImpf) the headH7218 of the Philistine,H6430 and broughtH935(HiphImpf) it to Jerusalem;H3389 but he putH7760(QalPerf) his armourH3627 in his tent.H168 [55] And when SaulH7586 sawH7200(QalInf) DavidH1732 go forthH3318(QalActPtc) againstH7125(QalInf) the Philistine,H6430 he saidH559(QalPerf) unto Abner,H74 the captainH8269 of the host,H6635 Abner,H74 whose sonH1121 [is] this youth?H5288 And AbnerH74 said,H559(QalImpf) [As] thy soulH5315 liveth,H2416 O king,H4428 I cannotH518 tell.H3045(QalPerf) [56] And the kingH4428 said,H559(QalImpf) EnquireH7592(QalImpv) thou whose sonH1121 the striplingH5958 [is]. [57] And as DavidH1732 returnedH7725(QalInf) from the slaughterH5221(HiphInf) of the Philistine,H6430 AbnerH74 tookH3947(QalImpf) him, and broughtH935(HiphImpf) him beforeH6440 SaulH7586 with the headH7218 of the PhilistineH6430 in his hand.H3027 [58] And SaulH7586 saidH559(QalImpf) to him, Whose sonH1121 [art] thou, [thou] young man?H5288 And DavidH1732 answered,H559(QalImpf) I [am] the sonH1121 of thy servantH5650 JesseH3448 the Bethlehemite.H1022
