1 Samuel 17:48-54

48And it came to pass, when the PhilistineH6430 aroseH6965, and cameH3212 and drew nearH7126 to meetH7125 DavidH1732, that DavidH1732 hastedH4116, and ranH7323 toward the armyH4634 to meetH7125 the PhilistineH6430. 49And DavidH1732 putH7971 his handH3027 in his bagH3627, and tookH3947 from there a stoneH68, and slungH7049 it with his sling, and smoteH5221 the PhilistineH6430 in his foreheadH4696, that the stoneH68 sunkH2883 into his foreheadH4696; and he fellH5307 upon his faceH6440 to the earthH776. 50So DavidH1732 prevailedH2388 overH4480 the PhilistineH6430 with a slingH7050 and with a stoneH68, and smoteH5221 the PhilistineH6430, and slewH4191 him; but there was no swordH2719 in the handH3027 of DavidH1732. 51Therefore DavidH1732 ranH7323, and stoodH5975 upon the PhilistineH6430, and tookH3947 his swordH2719, and drewH8025 it out of its sheathH8593, and slewH4191 him, and cut offH3772 his headH7218 with it. And when the PhilistinesH6430 sawH7200 their championH1368 was deadH4191, they fledH5127. 52And the menH582 of IsraelH3478 and of JudahH3063 aroseH6965, and shoutedH7321, and pursuedH7291 the PhilistinesH6430, to the entranceH935 of the valleyH1516, and to the gatesH8179 of EkronH6138. And the woundedH2491 of the PhilistinesH6430 fell downH5307 by the wayH1870 to ShaaraimH8189, even to GathH1661, and to EkronH6138. 53And the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 returnedH7725 from chasingH1814H310 the PhilistinesH6430, and they plunderedH8155 their tentsH4264. 54And DavidH1732 tookH3947 the headH7218 of the PhilistineH6430, and broughtH935 it to JerusalemH3389; but he putH7760 his armourH3627 in his tentH168.
