1 Samuel 17:23-25
Contemporary English Version
23 While David was talking with them, Goliath came out from the line of Philistines and started boasting as usual. David heard him.
24 When the Israelite soldiers saw Goliath, they were scared and ran off. 25 They said to each other, “Look how he keeps coming out to insult us. The king is offering a big reward to the man who kills Goliath. That man will even get to marry the king's daughter, and no one in his family will ever have to pay taxes again.”

1 Samuel 17:23-25
New International Version
23 As he was talking with them, Goliath, the Philistine champion from Gath, stepped out from his lines and shouted his usual(A) defiance, and David heard it. 24 Whenever the Israelites saw the man, they all fled from him in great fear.
25 Now the Israelites had been saying, “Do you see how this man keeps coming out? He comes out to defy Israel. The king will give great wealth to the man who kills him. He will also give him his daughter(B) in marriage and will exempt his family from taxes(C) in Israel.”
