1 Samuel 17:34-36

34 But David said to Saul, “Your servant was tending his father’s sheep. When a lion or a bear came and took a lamb from the flock, 35 I went out after him and ^{▼▼ Lit smote}attacked him, and ^brescued it from his mouth; and when he rose up against me, I seized him by his beard and ^{▼▼ Lit smote}struck him and killed him. 36 “Your servant has ^{▼▼ Lit smitten}killed both the lion and the bear; and this uncircumcised Philistine will be like one of them, since he has taunted the armies of the living God.”
