1 Samuel 17:10-15 World English Bible (WEB)

10. The Philistine said, “I defy the armies of Israel today! Give me a man, that we may fight together!”

11. When Saul and all Israel heard those words of the Philistine, they were dismayed, and greatly afraid.

12. Now David was the son of that Ephrathite of Bethlehem Judah, whose name was Jesse; and he had eight sons. The man was an elderly old man in the days of Saul.

13. The three oldest sons of Jesse had gone after Saul to the battle: and the names of his three sons who went to the battle were Eliab the firstborn, and next to him Abinadab, and the third Shammah.

14. David was the youngest; and the three oldest followed Saul.

15. Now David went back and forth from Saul to feed his father’s sheep at Bethlehem.
