10And the Philistine said, I defy the armies of Israel this day; give me a man, that we may fight together.
11And when Saul and all Israel heard those words of the Philistine, they were dismayed, and greatly afraid.
12Now David was the son of that Ephrathite of Beth-lehem-judah, whose name was Jesse; and he had eight sons: and the man was an old man in the days of Saul, stricken [in years] among men.
13And the three eldest sons of Jesse had gone after Saul to the battle: and the names of his three sons that went to the battle were Eliab the first-born, and next unto him Abinadab, and the third Shammah.
14And David was the youngest; and the three eldest followed Saul.
15Now David went to and fro from Saul to feed his father`s sheep at Beth-lehem.
16And the Philistine drew near morning and evening, and presented himself forty days.
