1 Samuel 17:54-58 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

54. And Dawiḏ took the head of the Philistine and brought it to Yerushalayim, but he put his weapons in his tent.

55. And when Sha’ul saw Dawiḏ going out against the Philistine, he said to Aḇnĕr, the commander of the army, “Aḇnĕr, whose son is this youth?” And Aḇnĕr said, “As your being lives, O sovereign, I do not know.”

56. And the sovereign said, “Ask whose son this young man is.”

57. And when Dawiḏ returned from the slaughter of the Philistine, Aḇnĕr took him and brought him before Sha’ul with the head of the Philistine in his hand.

58. And Sha’ul said to him, “Whose son are you, young man?” And Dawiḏ said, “The son of your servant Yishai the Bĕyth Leḥemite.”
