Then Da-vid told Saul how he had fought with and slain the wild beasts that came out of the woods to eat up the lambs of his flock. And, said he, this man is no more than a wild beast, and the Lord will save me from him as he did from the paw of the li-on and the bear.
And Saul said, Go, and the Lord go with thee. And Saul put on him a coat of mail, and clothed him in brass from head to foot, and hung a sword at his side. But Da-vid took them all off, and said, I have not tried them, and can-not use them.
And he took his staff in his hand, and chose five smooth stones from the brook and put them in a bag that he wore. And his sling was in his hand when he drew near to Go-li-ath.
Go-li-ath came near to Da-vid, and when he saw what a youth he was, he drew up his head with great scorn.
Da-vid ran to meet him, and put his hand in his bag and drew forth a stone, and slung it, and struck Go-li-ath on the fore-head with such force that the stone sank in through the bone and he fell on his face to the earth.
DA-VID WITH GO-LI-ATH'S HEAD.
Then Da-vid ran and stood on Go-li-ath, and drew his sword from its sheath, and slew him and cut off his head.
And when the Phil-is-tines saw that the man in whom they had put their trust was dead they fled.
And Da-vid came back from the fight with the head of Go-li-ath in his hand, and was brought to Saul.
