23 And as he talked with them, behold, a man, the champion, was coming up, by the name of Goliath the Philistine of Gath, from the armies of the Philistines. And he spoke these words, and David heard. 24 And all the men of Israel, when they saw the man, fled from him and were greatly afraid. 25 And the men of Israel said, “Have you? seen this man who has come up? Surely he has come up to defy Israel. And it shall come to pass that the man who kills him, the king will enrich with great riches, and his daughter will give to him, and the house of his father he will make free in Israel.” 26 And David spoke to the men who stood by him, saying, “What shall be done for the man who kills this Philistine and takes away the reproach from upon Israel? For who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the ranks of the living God?” 1 Samuel 17:23-26, Berean Literal Bible. Public domain.
