Shmuel Alef 17:29-33 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

29. And Dovid said, What have I done now? It was only a davar (word) [I said], wasn't it?

30. And he turned from him toward another, and spoke after the same manner; and HaAm answered him again according to the davar harishon (the previous word).

31. And when the devarim (words) were heard which Dovid spoke, they rehearsed them before Sha'ul: and he sent for him.

32. And Dovid said to Sha'ul, Let no lev adam fail because of him; thy eved will go and fight with this Pelishti.

33. And Sha'ul said to Dovid, Thou art not able to go against this Pelishti to fight with him: for thou art but a na'ar (boy), and he an ish milchamah (man of war) from his youth.
