1 Samuel 17: David and Goliath

The Philistine champion Goliath taunts Israel for forty days while Saul and his army cower in fear. David, sent with food for his brothers, volunteers to fight in the LORD's name, fells the giant with a single sling stone, and the Philistines flee; Saul then learns that David is Jesse's son.
