1 Samuel 17:1-11

1Now 1the PhilistinesH6430 gatheredH622 their armiesH4264 for battleH4421; and they were gatheredH622 at SocohH7755 whichH834 belongs to JudahH3063, and they campedH2583 betweenH996 2SocohH7755 and 3AzekahH5825, in 4Ephes-dammimH658. 2SaulH7586 and the menH376 of IsraelH3478 were assembledH622 and campedH2583 in 5the ValleyH6010 of ElahH424, and they drewH6186 upH6186 in battleH4421 formationH4421 to confrontH7122 the PhilistinesH6430. 3The PhilistinesH6430 were standingH5975 on the mountainH2022 on oneH2088 sideH2088, while IsraelH3478 was standingH5975 on the mountainH2022 on the otherH2088 sideH2088, with the valleyH1516 betweenH996 them. 4Then a championH376H996 cameH3318 forwardH3318 from the armyH4264 encampmentH4264 of the PhilistinesH6430, namedH8034 6GoliathH1555, from 7GathH1661. His heightH1363 was 8sixH8337 cubitsH520 and a 9spanH2239. 5And he had a bronzeH5178 helmetH3553 on his headH7218, and he woreH3847 scale-armorH7193 10which weighedH4948 11fiveH2568 thousandH505 shekelsH8255 of bronzeH5178. 6He also had bronzeH5178 12greavesH4697 on his legsH7272 and a 13bronzeH5178 14saberH3591 slung betweenH996 his shouldersH3802. 715The shaftH2671 of his spearH2595 was like a weaver’sH707 beamH4500, and the headH3852 of his spearH2595 weighed 16sixH8337 hundredH3967 shekelsH8255 of ironH1270; and 17his shield-carrierH6793H5375 walkedH1980 in frontH6440 of him. 8He stoodH5975 and shoutedH7121 to the ranksH4634 of IsraelH3478 and saidH559 to them, “WhyH4100 do you comeH3318 outH3318 to drawH6186 upH6186 in battleH4421 formationH4421? Am I not the PhilistineH6430, and you the 18servantsH5650 of SaulH7586? ChooseH1262 a manH376 asH1262 your representativeH1262 and have him comeH3381 downH3381 to me. 919IfH518 he isH3201 ableH3201 to fightH3898 me and 20killH5221 me, then we will becomeH1961 your servantsH5650; but ifH518 I prevailH3201 against him and 21killH5221 him, then you shall becomeH1961 our servantsH5650 and serveH5647 us.” 10Then the PhilistineH6430 saidH559, “22I have defiedH2778 the ranksH4634 of IsraelH3478 thisH2088 dayH3117! GiveH5414 me a manH376, so that we may fightH3898 togetherH3162.” 11When SaulH7586 and allH3605 IsraelH3478 heardH8085 theseH428 wordsH1697 of the PhilistineH6430, they were dismayedH2865 and veryH3966 fearfulH3372.
