The Philistine then moved to meet David at close quarters, while David ran quickly toward the battle line to meet the Philistine.
Of David. The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom should I fear? The Lord is my life’s refuge; of whom should I be afraid?
Though an army encamp against me, my heart does not fear; Though war be waged against me, even then do I trust.
The wicked flee though none pursue; but the just, like a lion, are confident.
David put his hand into the bag and took out a stone, hurled it with the sling, and struck the Philistine on the forehead. The stone embedded itself in his brow, and he fell on his face to the ground.
