2 Y también Saúl y los hombres de Israel se juntaron, y asentaron el campo en el valle del Alcornoque, y ordenaron la batalla contra los Filisteos.

3 Y los Filisteos estaban sobre el un monte de la una parte, é Israel estaba sobre el otro monte de la otra parte, y el valle entre ellos:

4 Salió entonces un varón del campo de los Filisteos [que se puso] entre los dos [campos], el cual se llamaba Goliath, de Gath, y tenía de altura seis codos y un palmo.

5 Y traía un almete de acero en su cabeza, é [iba] vestido con corazas de planchas: y era el peso de la coraza cinco mil siclos de metal:

6 Y sobre sus piernas traía grebas de hierro, y escudo de acero á sus hombros.
