1 Samuel 17:22-24
Lexham English Bible
22 David left the baggage he had with him in the care[a] of the baggage keeper, ran to the battle line, and came and asked how his brothers were doing.[b] 23 While he was speaking to them, the champion,[c] whose name was Goliath the Philistine from Gath, was coming up from the caves[d] of the Philistines. He spoke just as he had previously,[e] and David heard his words. 24 When all the men of Israel saw the man, they fled from his presence and were very afraid.
