David said to the Philistine,
"You come against me with sword and spear and javelin,
but I come against you in the name of the Lord Almighty,
the God of the armies of Israel,
whom you have defied.
This is the day the Lord will hand you over to me,
and I'll strike you down and cut off your head.
Today I will give the carcasses of the Philistine army
to the birds of the air and the beasts of the earth,
and the whole world will know
that there is a God in Israel.
All those gathered here will know
that it is not by the sword or spear that the Lord saves;
for the battle is the Lord's,
and He will give all of you into our hands."
(I Samuel 17:45-47)
