Samuel came to find a new King for Israel, Jesse had all seven of his sons . Finally, Samuel said, “Jesse, the Lord hasn't chosen any of these young men. Do you have any more sons?”“Yes,” Jesse answered. “My youngest son David is out taking care of the sheep.”
Jesse sent for David. He was a healthy, good-looking boy with a sparkle in his eyes.
The Philistine army had a hero named Goliath who was from the town of Gath and was over nine feet tall. Goliath went out and shouted to the army of Israel :
Why are you lining up for battle? I'm the best soldier in our army, and all of you are in Saul's army. Choose your best soldier to come out and fight me! If he can kill me, our people will be your slaves. But if I kill him, your people will be our slaves. Here and now I challenge Israel 's whole army! Choose someone to fight me!
One day, Jesse told David, “Hurry and take this sack of roasted grain and these ten loaves of bread to your brothers at the army camp. David obeyed his father. He got up early the next morning and left someone else in charge of the sheep;
Saul had his own military clothes and armor put on David, and he gave David a bronze helmet to wear. David strapped on a sword and tried to walk around, but he was not used to wearing those things. “I can't move with all this stuff on,” David said. “I'm just not used to it.”
Goliath came toward David, walking behind the soldier who was carrying his shield. When Goliath saw that David was just a healthy, good-looking boy, he made fun of him. “Do you think I'm a dog?” Goliath asked. “Is that why you've come after me with a stick?”
When Goliath started forward, David ran toward him. He put a rock in his sling and swung the sling around by its straps. When he let go of one strap, the rock flew out and hit Goliath on the forehead. It cracked his skull, and he fell facedown on the ground. David defeated Goliath with a sling and a rock. He killed him without even using a sword.
