1 Samuel 17:42-49

42And when the PhilistineH6430 lookedH7200 about and sawH7200 DavidH1732, he disdained him; for he wasH1961 a youthH5288, and ruddy, and besides of a beautifulH3303 countenance.

43And the PhilistineH6430 saidH559 to DavidH1732, Am I a dogH3611, that thou comest to me with staves? And the PhilistineH6430 cursedH7043 DavidH1732 by his 1godsH430.

44And the PhilistineH6430 saidH559 to DavidH1732, Come to me, and I will giveH5414 thy fleshH1320 to the fowls of the heavensH8064 and to the beasts of the fieldH7704.

45And DavidH1732 saidH559 to the PhilistineH6430, Thou comest to me with swordH2719, and with spearH2595, and with javelinH3591; but I comeH935 to thee in the nameH8034 of Jehovah of hostsH6635, the 2GodH430 of the armiesH6635 of IsraelH3478, whom thou hast defied.

46This dayH3117 will Jehovah deliver thee up into my handH3027; and I will smite thee, and take thy headH7218 from thee; and I will giveH5414 the carcases of the campH4264 of the PhilistinesH6430 this dayH3117 to the fowl of the heavensH8064 and to the wild beasts of the earthH776. And all the earthH776 shall knowH3045 that IsraelH3478 has a 3GodH430;

47and all this congregation shall knowH3045 that Jehovah savesH3467 not with swordH2719 and spearH2595; for the battleH4421 is Jehovah's, and he will giveH5414 you into our handsH3027.

48And it came to pass, when the PhilistineH6430 aroseH6965, and came and advanced to meetH7122 DavidH1732, that DavidH1732 hasted, and ranH7323 towards the ranks to meetH7122 the PhilistineH6430.

49And DavidH1732 put his handH3027 into the bag, and tookH3947 thence a stoneH68, and slang it, and smote the PhilistineH6430 in his foreheadH4696, and the stoneH68 sank into his foreheadH4696; and he fellH5307 on his faceH6440 to the earthH776.
