1 Samuel 17:55-58

55As SaulH7586 had watchedH7200 DavidH1732 going outH3318 to confrontH7122 the PhilistineH6430, he saidH559 toH413 AbnerH74 the commanderH8269 of the armyH6635, “AbnerH74, whoseH4310 sonH1121 is thisH2088 young manH5288?”

“As surely as youH5315 liveH2416, O kingH4428,” AbnerH74 repliedH559, “I do notH518 knowH3045.”

56“Find outH7592H859 whoseH4310 sonH1121 thisH2088 young man isH5958!” saidH559 the kingH4428.

57So when DavidH1732 returnedH7725 from killingH5221 the PhilistineH6430, still holdingH6430 his headH7218 in his handH3027, AbnerH74 tookH3947 himH853 and brought himH935 beforeH6440 SaulH7586.

58“WhoseH4310 sonH1121 are youH859, young manH5288?” askedH559 SaulH7586.

“I am the sonH1121 of your servantH5650 JesseH3448 of BethlehemH1022,” DavidH1732 repliedH559.
