1 Samuel 17:49 in Context — 1 Samuel 17

47 E saberá toda esta congregação que o SENHOR não salva com espada e lança; porque do SENHOR é la guerra, e ele vos entregará em nossas mãos.

48 E aconteceu que, quando o filisteu se levantou para ir e chegar-se contra Davi, Davi se deu pressa, e correu ao combate contra o filisteu.

49 E metendo Davi sua mão no saco, tomou dali uma pedra, e atirou-a com a funda, e feriu ao filisteu na testa: e a pedra ficou fincada na testa, e caiu em terra sobre seu rosto.

50 Assim venceu Davi ao filisteu com funda e pedra; e feriu ao filisteu e o matou, sem ter Davi espada em sua mão.

51 Mas correu Davi e pôs-se sobre o filisteu, e tomando a espada dele, tirando-a de sua bainha, o matou, e cortou-lhe com ela a cabeça. E quando os filisteus viram seu gigante morto, fugiram.
