22. Then David left his baggage in the care of the baggage keeper, and ran to the battle line and entered in order to greet his brothers.
23. As he was talking with them, behold, the champion, the Philistine from Gath named Goliath, was coming up from the army of the Philistines, and he spoke these same words; and David heard them.
24. When all the men of Israel saw the man, they fled from him and were greatly afraid.
25. The men of Israel said, "Have you seen this man who is coming up? Surely he is coming up to defy Israel. And it will be that the king will enrich the man who kills him with great riches and will give him his daughter and make his father's house free in Israel."
26. Then David spoke to the men who were standing by him, saying, "What will be done for the man who kills this Philistine and takes away the reproach from Israel? For who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should taunt the armies of the living God?"
27. The people answered him in accord with this word, saying, "Thus it will be done for the man who kills him."
