Bible. Samuel, 1st
09:017:028 And Eliab his eldest brother heard when he spake unto the men;
and Eliab's anger was kindled against David, and he said, Why
camest thou down hither? and with whom hast thou left those
few sheep in the wilderness? I know thy pride, and the
naughtiness of thine heart; for thou art come down that thou
mightest see the battle.
09:017:029 And David said, What have I now done? Is there not a cause?
09:017:030 And he turned from him toward another, and spake after the
same manner: and the people answered him again after the
former manner.
09:017:031 And when the words were heard which David spake, they
rehearsed them before Saul: and he sent for him.
09:017:032 And David said to Saul, Let no man's heart fail because of
him; thy servant will go and fight with this Philistine.
09:017:033 And Saul said to David, Thou art not able to go against this
Philistine to fight with him: for thou art but a youth, and he
a man of war from his youth.
09:017:034 And David said unto Saul, Thy servant kept his father's sheep,
and there came a lion, and a bear, and took a lamb out of the
flock:
09:017:035 And I went out after him, and smote him, and delivered it out
of his mouth: and when he arose against me, I caught him by
his beard, and smote him, and slew him.
09:017:036 Thy servant slew both the lion and the bear: and this
uncircumcised Philistine shall be as one of them, seeing he
hath defied the armies of the living God.
09:017:037 David said moreover, The LORD that delivered me out of the paw
of the lion, and out of the paw of the bear, he will deliver
me out of the hand of this Philistine. And Saul said unto
David, Go, and the LORD be with thee.
09:017:038 And Saul armed David with his armour, and he put an helmet of
brass upon his head; also he armed him with a coat of mail.
09:017:039 And David girded his sword upon his armour, and he assayed to
go; for he had not proved it. And David said unto Saul, I
cannot go with these; for I have not proved them. And David
put them off him.
09:017:040 And he took his staff in his hand, and chose him five smooth
stones out of the brook, and put them in a shepherd's bag
which he had, even in a scrip; and his sling was in his hand:
and he drew near to the Philistine.
09:017:041 And the Philistine came on and drew near unto David; and the
man that bare the shield went before him.
09:017:042 And when the Philistine looked about, and saw David, he
disdained him: for he was but a youth, and ruddy, and of a
fair countenance.
