1 Samuel 17:29
Is there not a cause? - i. e., is not Saul' s promise, and the insolence of Goliath, a sufficent cause for what I am about to do?
27 And the people answered him in this manner, saying, a“So shall it be done for the man who kills him.”
28 Now Eliab his oldest brother heard when he spoke to the men; and Eliab’s aanger was aroused against David, and he said, “Why did you come down here? And with whom have you left those few sheep in the wilderness? I know your pride and the insolence of your heart, for you have come down to see the battle.”
29 And David said, “What have I done now? aIs there not a cause?”
30 Then he turned from him toward another and asaid the same thing; and these people answered him as the first ones did.
31 Now when the words which David spoke were heard, they reported them to Saul; and he sent for him.
