3 E os filisteus estavam sobre o um monte da uma parte, e Israel estava sobre o outro monte da outra parte, e o vale entre eles:

4 Saiu então um homem do acampamento dos filisteus que se pôs entre os dois campos, o qual se chamava Golias, de Gate, e tinha de altura seis côvados e um palmo.

5 E trazia um capacete de bronze em sua cabeça, e ia vestido com couraças de placas: e era o peso da couraça cinco mil siclos de bronze:

6 E sobre suas pernas trazia caneleiras de ferro, e escudo de bronze a seus ombros.
