1 Samuel 17:30 in Context — 1 Samuel 17

28 Éliab, son frère aîné, qui l’avait entendu parler à ces hommes, fut enflammé de colère contre David. Et il dit: Pourquoi es-tu descendu, et à qui as-tu laissé ce peu de brebis dans le désert? Je connais ton orgueil et la malice de ton cœur. C’est pour voir la bataille que tu es descendu.

29 David répondit: Qu’ai-je donc fait? Ne puis-je pas parler ainsi?

30 Et il se détourna de lui pour s’adresser à un autre, et fit les mêmes questions. Le peuple lui répondit comme la première fois.

31 Lorsqu’on eut entendu les paroles prononcées par David, on les répéta devant Saül, qui le fit chercher.

32 David dit à Saül: Que personne ne se décourage à cause de ce Philistin! Ton serviteur ira se battre avec lui.
