1 Samuel 17:11-13
English Standard Version
11 When Saul and all Israel heard these words of the Philistine, they were dismayed and greatly afraid.
12 Now David was (A)the son of an (B)Ephrathite of Bethlehem in Judah, (C)named Jesse, (D)who had eight sons. In the days of Saul the man was already old and advanced in years.[a] 13 The three oldest sons of Jesse had followed Saul to the battle. And (E)the names of his three sons who went to the battle were Eliab the firstborn, and next to him Abinadab, and the third Shammah.
