1 Samuel 17:28 in Context — 1 Samuel 17
26 Então falou Davi aos que junto a ele estavam, dizendo: Que farão ao homem que vencer a este filisteu, e tirar a humilhação de Israel? Porque quem é este filisteu incircunciso, para que provoque aos esquadrões do Deus vivente?
27 E o povo lhe respondeu as mesmas palavras, dizendo: Assim se fará ao homem que o vencer.
28 E ouvindo-lhe falar Eliabe seu irmão mais velho com aqueles homens, Eliabe se acendeu em ira contra Davi, e disse: Para que hás descido aqui? e a quem deixaste aquelas poucas ovelhas no deserto? Eu conheço tua soberba e a malícia de teu coração, que vieste para ver a batalha.
29 E Davi respondeu: Que fiz eu agora? Não são estas apenas palavras?
30 E apartando-se dele até outros, falou o mesmo; e responderam-lhe os do povo como da primeira vez.
