12Now DavidH1732 was the sonH1121 of a manH376 namedH8034 JesseH3448, an EphrathiteH673 from BethlehemH1035 of JudahH3063 who had eightH8083 sonsH1121H376. And in the daysH3117 of SaulH7586, Jesse was oldH2204 and well alongH935 in years.1 13The threeH7969 olderH1419 sonsH1121 of JesseH3448 had followedH1980H310 SaulH7586 into battleH4421: The firstbornH1060 was EliabH446, the secondH4932 was AbinadabH41, and the thirdH7992 was ShammahH8048. 14And DavidH1732H1931 was the youngestH6996.
