1 And the Phi·lis′tines went collecting their camps together for war. When they were collected together at So′coh, which belongs to Judah, then they took up camping between So′coh and A·ze′kah, in E′phes-dam′mim. 2 As for Saul and the men of Israel, they collected themselves together and took up camping in the low plain of E′lah, and they went drawing up in battle formation to meet the Phi·lis′tines. 3 And the Phi·lis′tines were standing on the mountain on this side, and the Israelites were standing on the mountain on that side, with the valley between them.
4 And a champion began to go out from the camps of the Phi·lis′tines, his name being Go·li′ath, from Gath, his height being six cubits and a span. 5 And there was a helmet of copper on his head, and he was clad with a coat of mail, of overlapping scales, and the weight of the coat of mail was five thousand shekels of copper. 6 And there were greaves of copper above his feet and a javelin of copper between his shoulders. 7 And the wooden shaft of his spear was like the beam of loom workers, and the blade of his spear was six hundred shekels of iron; and the bearer of the large shield was marching ahead of him. 8 Then he stood still and began to call to the battle lines of Israel and say to them: “Why do YOU come out to draw up in battle formation? Am I not the Phi·lis′tine and YOU servants belonging to Saul? Choose a man for yourselves, and let him come down to me. 9 If he is able to fight with me and he does strike me down, we must then become servants to YOU. But if I myself am a match for him and I do strike him down, YOU must also become servants to us, and YOU must serve us.” 10 And the Phi·lis′tine went on to say: “I myself do taunt the battle lines of Israel this day. Give me a man, and let us fight together!”
11 When Saul and all Israel heard these words of the Phi·lis′tine, then they became terrified and were greatly afraid.
12 Now David was the son of this Eph′rath·ite from Beth′le·hem of Judah whose name was Jes′se. And he had eight sons. And in the days of Saul the man was already old among men. 13 And the three oldest sons of Jes′se proceeded to go. They went after Saul to the war, and the names of his three sons that went into the war were E·li′ab the firstborn, and his second son A·bin′a·dab and the third Sham′mah. 14 And David was the youngest, and the three oldest themselves went after Saul.
15 And David was going and returning from Saul to tend the sheep of his father at Beth′le·hem. 16 And the Phi·lis′tine kept coming forward at early morning and at evening and taking his position for forty days.
17 Then Jes′se said to David his son: “Take, please, to your brothers this e′phah of roasted grain and these ten loaves of bread, and carry them quickly to the camp to your brothers. 18 And these ten portions of milk you should bring to the chief of the thousand; also, you should look after your own brothers as regards their welfare, and a token from them you should take.” 19 Meantime, Saul and they and all the other men of Israel were in the low plain of E′lah, fighting against the Phi·lis′tines.
20 Accordingly David got up early in the morning and left the sheep to the keeper’s charge and picked up and went just as Jes′se had commanded him. When he came to the camp enclosure, the military forces were going out to the battle line, and they raised a shout for the battle. 21 And Israel and the Phi·lis′tines began drawing up battle line to meet battle line. 22 Immediately David left the baggage from off him to the care of the keeper of the baggage and went running to the battle line. When he came, he began asking about the welfare of his brothers.
23 While he was speaking with them, why, here the champion, his name being Go·li′a
