28. And Eliab his eldest brother heard when he spoke unto the men; and Eliab's anger was kindled against David, and he said, Why came you 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 are come down that you might see the battle.
29. And David said, What have I now done? Is it not a word?
30. And he turned from him toward another, and spoke after the same manner: and the people answered him again after the former manner.
31. And when the words were heard which David spoke, they repeated them before Saul: and he sent for him.
32. And David said to Saul, Let no man's heart fail because of him; your servant will go and fight with this Philistine.
33. And Saul said to David, you are not able to go against this Philistine to fight with him: for you are but a youth, and he a man of war from his youth.
34. And David said unto Saul, Your servant kept his father's sheep, and there came a lion, and a bear, and took a lamb out of the flock:
35. And I went out after him, and struck him, and delivered it out of his mouth: and when he arose against me, I caught him by his beard, and struck him, and slew him.
