1 Samuel 17:40 in Context — 1 Samuel 17
38 Saül fit mettre ses vêtements à David, il plaça sur sa tête un casque d’airain, et le revêtit d’une cuirasse.
39 David ceignit l’épée de Saül par-dessus ses habits, et voulut marcher, car il n’avait pas encore essayé. Mais il dit à Saül: Je ne puis pas marcher avec cette armure, je n’y suis pas accoutumé. Et il s’en débarrassa.
40 Il prit en main son bâton, choisit dans le torrent cinq pierres polies, et les mit dans sa gibecière de berger et dans sa poche. Puis, sa fronde à la main, il s’avança contre le Philistin.
41 Le Philistin s’approcha peu à peu de David, et l’homme qui portait son bouclier marchait devant lui.
42 Le Philistin regarda, et lorsqu’il aperçut David, il le méprisa, ne voyant en lui qu’un enfant, blond et d’une belle figure.
