1 Samuel 17:55-58
55When Saul had seen David going out to confront the Philistine, he asked Abner the commander of the army, “Whose son is this youth, Abner?” “Your Majesty, as surely as you live, I don’t know,” Abner replied.
56The king said, “Find out whose son this young man is!”
57When David returned from killing the Philistine, Abner took him and brought him before Saul with the Philistine’s head still in his hand.
58Saul said to him, “Whose son are you, young man?” “The son of your servant Jesse of Bethlehem,” David answered.
