1 Samuel 17:23-25

Evangelical Heritage Version

²³ As he was talking with them there, he saw the Philistine challenger named Goliath of Gath coming up out of the ranks of the Philistines. He repeated his usual words, and David heard them. ²⁴ (Whenever they saw the man, all the men of Israel fled from him and were terrified.) ²⁵ An Israelite had said, “Have you seen this man who has come up? He keeps coming up to taunt Israel. The king will give great riches to the man who kills him. He will give his daughter to him in marriage and make his father’s house exempt from taxes in Israel.”
