1 Samuel 17 David meets the giant and kills him

 1 Samuel 17

David meets the giant and kills him

48 And it came to pass, when the Philistine arose, and went to meet David, that David hurried, and ran into battle, to meet the Philistine.

49 And David put his hand in the saddlebag, and took a stone from there, and with a sling he threw it, and struck the Philistine on the forehead, and fell on his face to the ground.

50 So David prevailed against the Philistine, with a sling and with a stone, and struck the Philistine, and killed him without David having a sword in his hand.

51 So David ran and stood over the Philistine and took his sword and took it out of its sheath; and killed him, and cut off his head with it: when the Philistines saw that their champion was dead, they fled.

52 Then the men of Israel and Judah arose, and rejoiced, and followed the Philistines, until they reached the valley, and until the gates of Ekron: and the wounded of the Philistines fell on the way from Saharaim to Gath and to Ekron.

53 Then the children of Israel returned from persecuting the Philistines, and stripped their camps.

54 And David took the Philistine's head and brought it to Jerusalem: but he put his weapons in his tent.

55 But when Saul saw David go out to meet the Philistine, he said to Abner, the head of the army, Whose son is this young man, Abner? And Abner said, Thy soul lives, O king, that I do not know.

56 Then the king said, Ask, then, whose son is this young man.

57 When David returned from wounding the Philistine, Abner took him with him and brought him before Saul, with the Philistine's head in his hand.

58 And Saul said to him, Whose son are you, young man? And David said, Son of thy servant Jesse, a Bethlehemite.
