David and Goliath
1 Now the Philistines gathered their armies together to battle, and were gathered at aSochoh, which belongs to Judah; they encamped between Sochoh and Azekah, in Ephes Dammim.
2 And Saul and the men of Israel were gathered together, and they encamped in the Valley of Elah, and drew up in battle array against the Philistines.
3 The Philistines stood on a mountain on one side, and Israel stood on a mountain on the other side, with a valley between them.
4 And a champion went out from the camp of the Philistines, named aGoliath, from bGath, whose height was six cubits and a span.
5 He had a bronze helmet on his head, and he was1 armed with a coat of mail, and the weight of the coat was five thousand shekels of bronze.
