1 Samuel 17:4-9 World English Bible (WEB)

4. A champion out of the camp of the Philistines named Goliath, of Gath, whose height was six cubits and a span went out.

5. He had a helmet of brass on his head, and he wore a coat of mail; and the weight of the coat was five thousand shekels of brass.

6. He had brass shin armor on his legs, and a brass javelin between his shoulders.

7. The staff of his spear was like a weaver’s beam; and his spear’s head weighed six hundred shekels of iron. His shield bearer went before him.

8. He stood and cried to the armies of Israel, and said to them, “Why have you come out to set your battle in array? Am I not a Philistine, and you servants to Saul? Choose a man for yourselves, and let him come down to me.

9. If he is able to fight with me and kill me, then will we be your servants; but if I prevail against him and kill him, then you will be our servants and serve us.”
