(C)And I will give the dead bodies of the host of the Philistines this day (D)to the birds of the air and to the wild beasts of the earth, (E)that all the earth may know that there is a God in Israel, 47 and that all this assembly may know that (F)the Lord saves not with sword and spear. (G)For the battle is the Lord's, and he will give you into our hand.”
