1 Samuel 17:27

David Accepts the Challenge

26David asked the men who were standing with him, “What will be done for the man who kills this Philistine and removes this disgrace from Israel? Just who is this uncircumcised Philistine, that he should defy the armies of the living God?”27The people told him about the offer, saying, “That is what will be done for the man who kills him.”
