17:43. And the Philistine said to David: Am I a dog, that thou comest to
me with a staff? And the Philistine cursed David by his gods.
17:44. And he said to David: Come to me, and I will give thy flesh to
the birds of the air, and to the beasts of the earth.
17:45. And David said to the Philistine: Thou comest to me with a sword,
and with a spear, and with a shield: but I come to thee in the name of
the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, which thou hast
defied.
17:46. This day, and the Lord will deliver thee into my hand, and I will
slay thee, and take away thy head from thee: and I will give the
carcasses of the army of the Philistines this day to the birds of the
air, and to the beasts of the earth: that all the earth may know that
there is a God in Israel.
17:47. And all this assembly shall know that the Lord saveth not with
sword and spear: for it is his battle, and he will deliver you into our
hands.
17:48. And when the Philistine arose, and was coming, and drew nigh to
meet David, David made haste, and ran to the fight to meet the
Philistine.
17:49. And he put his hand into his scrip, and took a stone, and cast it
with the sling, and fetching it about, struck the Philistine in the
forehead, and he fell on his face upon the earth.
17:50. And David prevailed over the Philistine, with a sling and a
stone, and he struck, and slew the Philistine. And as David had no sword
in his hand,
17:51. He ran, and stood over the Philistine, and took his sword, and
drew it out of the sheath, and slew him, and cut off his head. And the
Philistines seeing that their champion was dead, fled away.
17:52. And the men of Israel and Juda rising up shouted, and pursued
after the Philistines till they came to the valley and to the gates of
Accaron, and there fell many wounded of the Philistines in the way of
Saraim, and as far as Geth, and as far as Accaron.
17:53. And the children of Israel returning, after they had pursued the
Philistines, fell upon their camp.
17:54. And David taking the head of the Philistine, brought it to
Jerusalem: but his armour he put in his tent.
17:55. Now at the time that Saul saw David going out against the
Philistines, he said to Abner, the captain of the army: Of what family
is this young man descended, Abner? And Abner said: As thy soul liveth,
O king, I know not.
17:56. And the king said: Inquire thou, whose son this young man is.
17:57. And when David was returned, after the Philistine was slain,
Abner took him, and brought him in before Saul, with the head of the
Philistine in his hand.
17:58. And Saul said to him: Young man, of what family art thou? And
David said: I am the son of thy servant Isai the Bethlehemite.
1 Kings Chapter 18
The friendship of Jonathan and David. The envy of Saul, and his design
upon David's life. He marrieth him to his daughter Michol.
18:1. And it came to pass, when he had made an end of speaking to Saul,
the son of Jonathan was knit with the soul of David, and Jonathan loved
him as his own soul.
18:2. And Saul took him that day, and would not let him return to his
father's house.
18:3. And David and Jonathan made a covenant, for he loved him as his
own soul.
18:4. And Jonathan stripped himself of the coat with which he was
clothed, and gave it to David, and the rest of his garments, even to his
sword, and to his bow, and to his girdle.
