1 Samuel 17:8-10

New Catholic Bible

⁸ He stood and cried out to the armies of Israel, “Why do you not come out arrayed in battle line? Am I not a Philistine, and are you not servants of Saul? Choose a man and have him come down to me. ⁹ If he is able to fight me and kill me, then we will become your slaves. But if I defeat and kill him, then you will be our slaves and serve us.” ¹⁰ Then the Philistine said, “I defy the armies of Israel today. Give me a man so that we can fight each other.”
