39And DavidH1732 strappedH2296 onH2296 his swordH2719 overH4480H5921 his militaryH4055 attireH4055 and struggledH2974 at walkingH1980, for he had not trainedH5254 with the armor. So DavidH1732 saidH559 to SaulH7586, “I cannotH3201H3808 goH1980 with theseH428, becauseH3588 I have not trainedH5254 with them.” And DavidH1732 tookH5493 them 1offH4480H5921. 40Then he tookH3947 his staffH4731 in his handH3027 and choseH977 for himself fiveH2568 smoothH2512 stonesH68 from the brookH5158, and putH7760 them in the shepherd’sH7462 bagH3627 whichH834 he had, that is, in his shepherd’sH3219 pouchH3219, and 2his slingH7050 was in his handH3027; and he approachedH5066 the PhilistineH6430.
