1 Samuel 17:2-9
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 17
2
Saul and the men of Israel were assembled and camped in the Valley of Elah, and they drew up in battle formation to confront the Philistines.
3
The Philistines were standing on the mountain on one side, while Israel was standing on the mountain on the other side, with the valley between them.
4
Then a champion came forward from the army encampment of the Philistines, named Goliath, from Gath. His height was six cubits and a span.
5
And
he had
a bronze helmet on his head, and he wore scale-armor which weighed five thousand shekels of bronze.
6
He
also
had
bronze greaves on his legs and a bronze saber
slung
between his shoulders.
7
The shaft of his spear was like a weaver’s beam, and the head of his spear
weighed
six hundred shekels of iron; and his shield-carrier walked in front of him.
8
He stood and shouted to the ranks of Israel and said to them, 'Why do you come out to draw up in battle formation? Am I not the Philistine, and you the servants of Saul? Choose a man as your representative and have him come down to me.
9
If he is able to fight me and kill me, then we will become your servants; but if I prevail against him and kill him, then you shall become our servants and serve us.'
King James Version
Chapter 17
2
And Saul and the men of Israel were gathered together, and pitched by the valley of Elah, and set the battle in array against the Philistines.
3
And the Philistines stood on a mountain on the one side, and Israel stood on a mountain on the other side: and there was a valley between them.
4
And there went out a champion out of the camp of the Philistines, named Goliath, of Gath, whose height was six cubits and a span.
5
And he had an helmet of brass upon his head, and he was armed with a coat of mail; and the weight of the coat was five thousand shekels of brass.
6
And he had greaves of brass upon his legs, and a target of brass between his shoulders.
7
And the staff of his spear was like a weaver's beam; and his spear's head weighed six hundred shekels of iron: and one bearing a shield went before him.
8
And he stood and cried unto the armies of Israel, and said unto them, Why are ye come out to set your battle in array? am not I a Philistine, and ye servants to Saul? choose you a man for you, and let him come down to me.
9
If he be able to fight with me, and to kill me, then will we be your servants: but if I prevail against him, and kill him, then shall ye be our servants, and serve us.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 17
2
Saul and the men of Israel gathered and camped in the Valley of Elah; then they lined up in battle formation to face the Philistines.
3
The Philistines were standing on one hill, and the Israelites were standing on another hill with a ravine between them.
4
Then a champion named Goliath, from Gath, came out from the Philistine camp. He was nine feet, nine inches tall
5
and wore a bronze helmet and bronze scale armor that weighed one hundred twenty-five pounds.
6
There was bronze armor on his shins, and a bronze javelin was slung between his shoulders.
7
His spear shaft was like a weaver’s beam, and the iron point of his spear weighed fifteen pounds. In addition, a shield-bearer was walking in front of him.
8
He stood and shouted to the Israelite battle formations: "Why do you come out to line up in battle formation?" He asked them, "Am I not a Philistine and are you not servants of Saul? Choose one of your men and have him come down against me.
9
If he wins in a fight against me and kills me, we will be your servants. But if I win against him and kill him, then you will be our servants and serve us."
New Living Translation
Chapter 17
2
Saul countered by gathering his Israelite troops near the valley of Elah.
3
So the Philistines and Israelites faced each other on opposite hills, with the valley between them.
4
Then Goliath, a Philistine champion from Gath, came out of the Philistine ranks to face the forces of Israel. He was over nine feet tall!
5
He wore a bronze helmet, and his bronze coat of mail weighed 125 pounds.
6
He also wore bronze leg armor, and he carried a bronze javelin on his shoulder.
7
The shaft of his spear was as heavy and thick as a weaver’s beam, tipped with an iron spearhead that weighed 15 pounds. His armor bearer walked ahead of him carrying a shield.
8
Goliath stood and shouted a taunt across to the Israelites. 'Why are you all coming out to fight?' he called. 'I am the Philistine champion, but you are only the servants of Saul. Choose one man to come down here and fight me!
9
If he kills me, then we will be your slaves. But if I kill him, you will be our slaves!
