[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.”

David Slays Goliath

[1] Now the Philistines H6430 gathered together H622 H853 their armies H4264 to battle, H4421 and were gathered together H622 at Shochoh, H7755 which belongeth to Judah, H3063 and pitched H2583 between H996 Shochoh H7755 and Azekah, H5825 in Ephes-dammim. H658§ [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 a mountain H2022 on the one side, and Israel H3478 stood H5975 on a mountain H2022 on the other side: and there was a valley H1516 between them. [4] And there went out H3318 a champion H376 H1143 out of the camp H4264 of the Philistines, H6430 named H8034 Goliath, H1555 of Gath, H1661 whose height H1363 was six H8337 cubits H520 and a span. H2239 [5] And he had an helmet H3553 of brass H5178 upon H5921 his head, H7218 and he 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 H6086 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 H413 them, Why are ye come out H3318 to set your battle H4421 in array? H6186 am not I a Philistine, H6430 and ye servants H5650 to Saul? H7586 choose H1262 you a man H376 for you, and let him come down H3381 to me. [9] If he be able H3201 to fight H3898 with H854 me, and to kill H5221 me, then will we be your servants: H5650 but if I prevail H3201 against him, and kill H5221 him, then shall ye be our servants, H5650 and serve H5647 us. [10] And the Philistine H6430 said, H559 I 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 Israel H3478 heard H8085 H853 those 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 Ephrathite H376 H673 of Beth-lehem-judah, H1035 H3063 whose name H8034 was Jesse; H3448 and he had eight H8083 sons: H1121 and the man H376 went H935 among men H582 for an old man H2204 in the days H3117 of Saul. H7586 [13] And the three H7969 eldest H1419 sons H1121 of Jesse H3448 went H3212 and followed H310 Saul H7586 to the battle: H4421 and the names H8034 of his three H7969 sons H1121 that 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 Saul H7586 to feed H7462 his father’s H1 H853 sheep H6629 at Beth-lehem. H1035 [16] And the Philistine H6430 drew near H5066 morning H7925 and evening, H6150 and presented H3320 himself forty H705 days. H3117 [17] And Jesse H3448 said H559 unto David H1732 his son, H1121 Take H3947 now for thy brethren H251 an ephah H374 of this H2088 parched H7039 corn, and these ten H6235 loaves, H3899 and run H7323 to the camp H4264 to thy brethren; H251 [18] and carry H935 these H428 ten H6235 cheeses H2461§ H2757 unto the captain H8269 of their thousand,§ H505 and look H6485 how thy brethren H251 fare, H7965 and take H3947 their pledge. H6161 [19] Now Saul, H7586 and they, and all 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 a keeper, H8104 and took, H5375 and went, H3212 as Jesse H3448 had commanded H6680 him; and he came H935 to the trench, H4570§ as the host H2428 was going forth H3318 to 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 his carriage H3627§ in 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 talked H1696 with H5973 them, behold, there came up H5927 the champion, H376 H1143 the Philistine H6430 of Gath, H1661 Goliath H1555 by name, H8034 out of the armies H4634 H4630 of the Philistines, H6430 and spake H1696 according to the same H428 words: H1697 and David H1732 heard H8085 them. [24] And all the men H376 of Israel, H3478 when they saw H7200 the man, H376 fled H5127 from him, H6440§ 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 Israel H3478 is he come up: H5927 and it shall be, 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 spake H559 to the men H582 that stood H5975 by him, saying, H559 What H4100 shall be done H6213 to the man H376 that killeth H5221 this H1975 Philistine, H6430 and taketh away H5493 the reproach H2781 from Israel? H3478 for who is this uncircumcised H6189 Philistine, H6430 that he should defy H2778 the armies H4634 of the living H2416 God? H430 [27] And the people H5971 answered H559 him after this manner, H1697 saying, H559 So H3541 shall it be done H6213 to the man H376 that killeth H5221 him. [28] And Eliab H446 his eldest H1419 brother H251 heard H8085 when he spake H1696 unto H413 the men; H582 and Eliab’s H446 anger H639 was kindled H2734 against H5921 David, H1732 and he said, H559 Why camest thou down H3381 hither? and with whom hast thou left H5203 those H2007 few H4592 sheep H6629 in the wilderness? H4057 I know H3045 H853 thy pride, H2087 and the naughtiness H7455 of thine heart; H3824 for H3588 thou art come down H3381 that thou mightest see H7200 the battle. H4421 [29] And David H1732 said, H559 What H4100 have I now done? H6213 Is there not a cause? H1697 [30] And he turned H5437 from him H681 toward H4136 another, H312 and spake H559 after the same 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 spake, H1696 they rehearsed H5046 them before H6440 Saul: H7586 and he sent H3947 for him.§ [32] And David H1732 said H559 to Saul, H7586 Let no man’s H120 heart H3820 fail H5307 because of him; thy servant H5650 will go H3212 and fight H3898 with H5973 this H2088 Philistine. H6430 [33] And Saul H7586 said H559 to David, H1732 Thou art not able H3201 to go H3212 against this Philistine H6430 to fight H3898 with him: for thou art but a youth, H5288 and he a man H376 of war H4421 from his youth. H5271 [34] And David H1732 said H559 unto H413 Saul, H7586 Thy servant H5650 kept H7462 his father’s H1 sheep, H6629 and there came H935 a lion, H738 and a bear, H1677 and took H5375 a lamb H7716§ H2089 out of the flock: H5739 [35] and I went out H3318 after H310 him, and smote H5221 him, and delivered H5337 it out of his mouth: 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 H853 both the lion H738 and the bear: H1677 and this uncircumcised H6189 Philistine H6430 shall be as one H259 of them, seeing he hath defied H2778 the armies H4634 of the living H2416 God. H430 [37] David H1732 said H559 moreover, The Lord H3068 that delivered H5337 me out of the paw H3027 of the lion, H738 and out of the paw H3027 of the bear, H1677 he will deliver H5337 me out of the hand H3027 of this Philistine. H6430 And Saul H7586 said H559 unto H413 David, H1732 Go, H3212 and the Lord H3068 be with thee. [38] And Saul H7586 armed H3847 H853 David H1732 with his armour, H4055 and he put H5414 an 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 H5921 his armour, H4055 and he assayed H2974 to go; H3212 for H3588 he had not proved H5254 it. And David H1732 said H559 unto H413 Saul, H7586 I cannot H3201 go H3212 with these; for I have not proved H5254 them. And David H1732 put H5493 them off 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 the Philistine. H6430 [41] And the Philistine H6430 came H3212 on H1980 and drew near H7131 unto H413 David; H1732 and the man H376 that bare 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 he was but a youth, H5288 and ruddy, H132 and of a fair H3303 countenance. H4758 [43] And the Philistine H6430 said H559 unto H413 David, H1732 Am I a dog, H3611 that thou comest H935 to me with staves? H4731 And the Philistine H6430 cursed H7043 David H1732 by his gods. H430 [44] And the Philistine H6430 said H559 to David, H1732 Come H3212 to me, and I will give H5414 H853 thy flesh H1320 unto H413 the fowls H5775 of the air, H8064 and to the beasts H929 of the field. H7704 [45] Then said H559 David H1732 to the Philistine, H6430 Thou comest H935 to me with a sword, H2719 and with a spear, H2595 and with a shield: H3591 but I come H935 to 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 thee; and I will give H5414 the carcases 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 the earth H776 may know H3045 that there is H3426 a God H430 in Israel. H3478 [47] And all this assembly H6951 shall know H3045 that 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, when the Philistine H6430 arose, H6965 and came H3212 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 his bag, H3627 and took H3947 thence a stone, H68 and slang H7049 it, and smote H5221 H853 the Philistine H6430 in 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 the Philistine, H6430 and slew H4191 him; but there was no sword H2719 in the hand H3027 of David. H1732 [51] Therefore David H1732 ran, H7323 and stood H5975 upon the Philistine, H6430 and took H3947 H853 his sword, H2719 and drew H8025 it out of the sheath 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.
