1 Samuel 17:33-35
1599 Geneva Bible
33 And Saul said to David, Thou art not [a]able to go against this Philistine to fight with him: for thou art a boy, and he is a man of war from his youth.
34 And David answered unto Saul, Thy servant kept his father’s sheep, and there came a [b]lion, and likewise a bear, and took a sheep out of the flock,
35 And I went out after him and smote him, and took it out of his mouth: and when he arose against me, I caught him by the beard, and smote him, and slew him.
