“David said to Saul, "Let no man's heart fail because of him. Your servant will go and fight with this Philistine."”

“And David said to Saul, Let no man's heart become feeble because of him; I, your servant, will go out and have a fight with this Philistine.”
“And David said to Saul, Let no man’s heart fail because of him; thy servant will go and fight with this Philistine.”
David replied,“What have I done now? Can’t I say anything?”

When David’s words were overheard and reported to Saul, he called for him.
David said to Saul,“Don’t let anyone be discouraged. Your servant will go and fight this Philistine!”
But Saul replied to David,“You aren’t able to go against this Philistine and fight him! You’re just a boy! He has been a warrior from his youth!”
David replied to Saul,“Your servant has been a shepherd for his father’s flock. Whenever a lion or bear would come and carry off a sheep from the flock,
I would go out after it, strike it down, and rescue the sheep from its mouth. If it rose up against me, I would grab it by its jaw, strike it, and kill it.
