1 Samuel 17:41
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
Now the Philistine came closer and closer to David, with his shield-bearer before him.
In context
39 David strapped his sword over the tunic and tried to walk, but he was not accustomed to them. “I cannot walk in these,” David said to Saul. “I am not accustomed to them.” So David took them off.
40 And David took his staff in his hand, selected five smooth stones from the brook, and put them in the pouch of his shepherd’s bag. And with his sling in hand, he approached the Philistine.
41 Now the Philistine came closer and closer to David, with his shield-bearer before him.
42 When the Philistine looked and saw David, he despised him because he was just a boy, ruddy and handsome.
43 “Am I a dog,” he said to David, “that you come at me with sticks?” And the Philistine cursed David by his gods.
