1 Samuel 17:43-47

[43] And the Philistine  said  unto David,  Am I a dog,  that thou comest  to me with staves?  And the Philistine  cursed  David  by his gods.  [44] And the Philistine  said  to David,  to me, and I will give  thy flesh  unto the fowls  of the air,  and to the beasts  of the field.  [45] Then said  David  to the Philistine,  Thou comest  to me with a sword,  and with a spear,  and with a shield:  but I come  to thee in the name  of the LORD  of hosts,  the God  of the armies  of Israel,  whom thou hast defied.  [46] This day  will the LORD  deliver  thee into mine hand;  and I will smite  thee, and take  thine head  from thee; and I will give  the carcases  of the host  of the Philistines  this day  unto the fowls  of the air,  and to the wild beasts  of the earth;  may know  that there is  a God  in Israel.  [47] And all this assembly  shall know  that the LORD  saveth  not with sword  and spear:  for the battle  is the LORD'S,  and he will give  you into our hands.
