But Ehud H261 made H6213 him a dagger H2719 which had two H8147 edges, H6366 of a cubit H1574 length; H753 and he did gird H2296 it under H8478 his raiment H4055 on his right H3225 thigh. H3409

And when H834 he had made an end H3615 to offer H7126 the present, H4503 he sent H7971 away the people H5971 that bore H5375 the present. H4503

And Ehud H261 came H935 to him; and he was sitting H3427 in a summer H4747 parlor, H5944 which H834 he had for himself alone. H905 And Ehud H261 said, H559 I have a message H1697 from God H430 to you. And he arose H6965 out of his seat. H3678

And the haft H5325 also H1571 went H935 in after H310 the blade; H3851 and the fat H2459 closed H5462 on the blade, H3851 so H3588 that he could not draw H8025 the dagger H2719 out of his belly; H990 and the dirt H6574 came H3318 out.

When he was gone H3318 out, his servants H5650 came; H935 and when they saw H7200 that, behold, H2009 the doors H1817 of the parlor H5944 were locked, H5274 they said, H559 Surely H389 he covers H5526 his feet H7272 in his summer H4747 chamber. H2315

And Ehud H261 escaped H4422 while H5704 they tarried, H4102 and passed H5674 beyond H5674 the quarries, H6456 and escaped H4422 to Seirath. H8167

And he said H559 to them, Follow H7291 after H310 me: for the LORD H3068 has delivered H5414 your enemies H341 the Moabites H4124 into your hand. H3027 And they went H3381 down H3381 after H310 him, and took H3920 the fords H4569 of Jordan H3383 toward Moab, H4124 and suffered H5414 not a man H376 to pass H5674 over. H5674

And, behold, H2009 Saul H7586 came H935 after H310 the herd H1241 out of the field; H7704 and Saul H7586 said, H559 What H4100 ails the people H5971 that they weep? H1058 And they told H5608 him the tidings H1697 of the men H582 of Jabesh. H3003

And he took H3947 a yoke H6776 of oxen, H1241 and hewed H5408 them in pieces, and sent H7971 them throughout all H3605 the coasts H1366 of Israel H3478 by the hands H3027 of messengers, H4397 saying, H559 Whoever H834 comes H3318 not forth H3318 after H310 Saul H7586 and after H310 Samuel, H8050 so H3541 shall it be done H6213 to his oxen. H1241 And the fear H6343 of the LORD H3068 fell H5307 on H5921 the people, H5971 and they came H3318 out with one H259 consent. H376

And they said H559 to the messengers H4397 that came, H935 Thus H3541 shall you say H559 to the men H376 of Jabeshgilead, H3003 H1568 To morrow, H4279 by that time the sun H8121 be hot, H2527 you shall have help. H8668 And the messengers H4397 came H935 and showed H5046 it to the men H582 of Jabesh; H3003 and they were glad. H8056

And it was so on the morrow, H4283 that Saul H7586 put H7760 the people H5971 in three H7969 companies; H7218 and they came H935 into the middle H8432 of the host H4264 in the morning H1242 watch, H821 and slew H5221 the Ammonites H5984 until H5704 the heat H2527 of the day: H3117 and it came H1961 to pass, that they which remained H7604 were scattered, H6327 so that two H8147 of them were not left H7604 together. H3162

And Saul H7586 tarried H3427 in the uttermost H7097 part of Gibeah H1390 under H8478 a pomegranate H7416 tree which H834 is in Migron: H4051 and the people H5971 that were with him were about six H8337 hundred H3967 men; H376

And between H996 the passages, H4569 by which H834 Jonathan H3129 sought H1245 to go H5674 over H5674 to the Philistines' H6430 garrison, H4673 there was a sharp H8127 rock H5553 on the one H2088 side, H5676 and a sharp H8127 rock H5553 on the other H2088 side: H5676 and the name H8034 of the one H259 was Bozez, H949 and the name H8034 of the other H259 Seneh. H5573

And Jonathan H3083 said H559 to the young H5288 man that bore H5375 his armor, H3627 Come, H3212 and let us go H5674 over H5674 to the garrison H4673 of these H428 uncircumcised: H6189 it may be that the LORD H3068 will work H6213 for us: for there is no H369 restraint H4622 to the LORD H3068 to save H3467 by many H7227 or H176 by few. H4592

Then said H559 Jonathan, H3083 Behold, H2009 we will pass H5674 over H5674 to these men, H582 and we will discover H1540 ourselves to them.

But if H518 they say H559 thus, H3541 Come H5927 up to us; then we will go H5927 up: for the LORD H3068 has delivered H5414 them into our hand: H3027 and this H2088 shall be a sign H226 to us.

And the men H582 of the garrison H4675 answered H6030 Jonathan H3129 and his armor bearer, H5375 H3627 and said, H559 Come H5927 up to us, and we will show H3045 you a thing. H1697 And Jonathan H3129 said H559 to his armor bearer, H5375 H3627 Come H5927 up after H310 me: for the LORD H3068 has delivered H5414 them into the hand H3027 of Israel. H3478

And that first H7223 slaughter, H4347 which H834 Jonathan H3129 and his armor bearer H5375 H3627 made, H5221 was about twenty H6242 men, H376 within as it were an half H2677 acre H4618 of land, H7704 which a yoke H6776 of oxen might plow.

And Saul H7586 and the men H376 of Israel H3478 were gathered H622 together, H3162 and pitched H2583 by the valley H6010 of Elah, H425 and set the battle H4421 in array H6186 against H7125 the Philistines. H6430

And there went H3318 out a champion H376 H1143 out of the camp H4264 of the Philistines, H6430 named H8034 Goliath, H1555 of Gath, H1661 whose height H1363 was six H8337 cubits H520 and a span. H2239

And he had greaves H4697 of brass H5178 on his legs, H7272 and a target H3591 of brass H5178 between H996 his shoulders. H3802

And he stood H5975 and cried H7121 to the armies H4634 of Israel, H3478 and said H559 to them, Why H4100 are you come H3318 out to set your battle H4421 in array? H6186 am not I a Philistine, H6430 and you servants H5650 to Saul? H7586 choose H1262 you a man H376 for you, and let him come H3381 down H3381 to me.

And the Philistine H6430 said, H559 I defy H2778 the armies H4634 of Israel H3478 this H2088 day; H3117 give H5414 me a man, H376 that we may fight H3898 together. H3162

Now David H1732 was the son H1121 of that Ephrathite H673 of Bethlehemjudah, H1035 whose name H8034 was Jesse; H3448 and he had eight H8083 sons: H1121 and the man H376 went H935 among men H582 for an old H2204 man in the days H3117 of Saul. H7586

And David H1732 was the youngest: H3996 and the three H7969 oldest H1419 followed H1980 H310 Saul. H7586

And the Philistine H6430 drew near H5066 morning H7925 and evening, H6150 and presented H3320 himself forty H705 days. H3117

And carry H935 these H428 ten H6235 cheeses H2757 H2461 to the captain H8269 of their thousand, H505 and look H6485 how your brothers H251 fare, H7965 and take H3947 their pledge. H6161

And David H1732 rose H7925 up early H7925 in the morning, H1242 and left H5203 the sheep H6629 with a keeper, H8104 and took, H5375 and went, H3212 as Jesse H3448 had commanded H6680 him; and he came H935 to the trench, H4570 as the host H2428 was going H3318 forth H3318 to the fight, H4634 and shouted H7321 for the battle. H4421

And David H1732 left H5203 his carriage H3627 in the hand H3027 of the keeper H8104 of the carriage, H3627 and ran H7323 into the army, H4634 and came H935 and saluted H7592 H7965 his brothers. H251

And all H3605 the men H376 of Israel, H3478 when they saw H7200 the man, H376 fled H5127 from him, and were sore H3966 afraid. H3372

And David H1732 spoke H559 to the men H582 that stood H5975 by him, saying, H559 What H4100 shall be done H6213 to the man H376 that kills H5221 this H1975 Philistine, H6430 and takes H5493 away the reproach H2781 from Israel? H3478 for who H4310 is this H2088 uncircumcised H6189 Philistine, H6430 that he should defy H2778 the armies H4634 of the living H2416 God? H430

And Eliab H446 his oldest H1419 brother H251 heard H8085 when he spoke H1696 to the men; H582 and Eliab's H446 anger H639 was kindled H2734 against David, H1732 and he said, H559 Why H4100 came H3381 you down H3381 here? and with whom H4310 have you left H5203 those H2007 few H4592 sheep H6629 in the wilderness? H4057 I know H3045 your pride, H2087 and the naughtiness H7455 of your heart; H3824 for you are come H3381 down H3381 that you might see H7200 the battle. H4421

And he turned H5437 from him toward H413 H4136 another, H312 and spoke H559 after the same H2088 manner: H1697 and the people H5971 answered H7725 H1697 him again H7725 after the former H7223 manner. H1697

And David H1732 said H559 to Saul, H7586 Let no H408 man's H120 heart H3820 fail H5307 because H5921 of him; your servant H5650 will go H3212 and fight H3898 with this H2088 Philistine. H6430

And David H1732 said H559 to Saul, H7586 Your servant H5650 kept H7462 his father's H1 sheep, H6629 and there came H935 a lion, H738 and a bear, H1677 and took H5375 a lamb H7716 out of the flock: H5739

Your servant H5650 slew H5221 both H1571 the lion H738 and the bear: H1677 and this H2088 uncircumcised H6189 Philistine H6430 shall be as one H259 of them, seeing H3588 he has defied H2778 the armies H4634 of the living H2416 God. H430

And Saul H7586 armed H3847 David H1732 with his armor, H4055 and he put H5414 an helmet H6959 of brass H5178 on his head; H7218 also he armed H3847 him with a coat H8302 of mail.

And he took H3947 his staff H4731 in his hand, H3027 and chose H977 him five H2568 smooth H2512 stones H68 out of the brook, H5158 and put H7760 them in a shepherd's H7462 bag H3627 which H834 he had, even in a money; H3219 and his sling H7050 was in his hand: H3027 and he drew near H5066 to the Philistine. H6430

And when the Philistine H6430 looked H5027 about, H5027 and saw H7200 David, H1732 he disdained H959 him: for he was but a youth, H5288 and ruddy, H132 and of a fair H3303 countenance. H4758

And the Philistine H6430 said H559 to David, H1732 Come H3212 to me, and I will give H5414 your flesh H1320 to the fowls H5775 of the air, H8064 and to the beasts H929 of the field. H7704

This H2088 day H3117 will the LORD H3068 deliver H5462 you into my hand; H3027 and I will smite H5221 you, and take H5493 your head H7218 from you; and I will give H5414 the carcasses H6297 of the host H4264 of the Philistines H6430 this H2088 day H3117 to the fowls H5775 of the air, H8064 and to the wild H2416 beasts H2416 of the earth; H776 that all H3605 the earth H776 may know H3045 that there is a God H430 in Israel. H3478

And it came H1961 to pass, when H3588 the Philistine H6430 arose, H6965 and came, H3212 and drew near H7126 to meet H7125 David, H1732 that David H1732 hastened, H4116 and ran H7323 toward the army H4634 to meet H7125 the Philistine. H6430

So David H1732 prevailed H2388 over H4480 the Philistine H6430 with a sling H7050 and with a stone, H68 and smote H5221 the Philistine, H6430 and slew H4191 him; but there was no H369 sword H2719 in the hand H3027 of David. H1732

And the men H582 of Israel H3478 and of Judah H3063 arose, H6965 and shouted, H7321 and pursued H7291 the Philistines, H6430 until H5704 you come H935 to the valley, H1516 and to the gates H8179 of Ekron. H6138 And the wounded H2491 of the Philistines H6430 fell H5307 down by the way H1870 to Shaaraim, H8189 even to Gath, H1661 and to Ekron. H6138

And David H1732 took H3947 the head H7218 of the Philistine, H6430 and brought H935 it to Jerusalem; H3389 but he put H7760 his armor H3627 in his tent. H168

And the king H4428 said, H559 Inquire H7592 you whose H4310 son H1121 the stripling H5958 is.

And Saul H7586 said H559 to him, Whose H4310 son H1121 are you, you young H5288 man? And David H1732 answered, H559 I am the son H1121 of your servant H5650 Jesse H3448 the Bethlehemite. H1022
