Honor him, David.
Walk in his light...
...and you shall serve him...
...as few are permitted to serve.
[THUNDER CRASHING]
MAN:
Where is your champion, Hebrews?
Who will stand forth and face me?
It is the giant of Gath, sire...
...challenging us to send a champion
against him and so decide the battle.
Sire, the men have heard his challenge
these 40 dawns.
AHITHOPHEL:
They cowerlike whipped dogs at his voice.
Unless, he is met,
and soon, our cause is lost.
And is there no one in the ranks of Israel
who dares to meet this man?
AHITHOPHEL:
Sire, if Goliath wereonly a man, any one of us would go.
But he's like no man born of woman.
His height is six cubits and a span,
and his spear is like a weaver's beam.
They are dogs, indeed,
to run before one Philistine.
Is there no courage in Israel?
AHITHOPHEL:
Sire, courage alone is not enough.
No arrow can pierce the giant's armor.
No spear can thrust
beneath the reach of his arms.
He casts his spear
a hundred long paces.
We call ourselves
"the chosen of the Lord. "
Are we to let the enemies of God
take Israel because we lack a champion?
DAVID:
Sire, I will meet Goliath.
Who is it that speaks? Come forward.
- David, my armorbearer.
- I will meet him, sire.
AHITHOPHEL:
Sire.
Samuel calls this boy
the Lord's anointed.
If you let him to face the giant...
...Samuel's prophecy can be proved...
[WHISPERING]
... or disproved.
David, you may meet Goliath.
JONATHAN:
No, David. Father, he is my friend.
SAUL:
Silence, Jonathan.
SAUL:
Go, David.JONATHAN:
With God, David.GOLIATH:
Is Goliath a dog...
...that you send a boy to meet him?
Come closer, little one. Come closer.
Come closer, little one.
My father, let me go down
in David's place.
No, Jonathan.
Let the Philistine prove the folly
of Samuel's prophecy.
[CHEERING]
David, David, get up.
[SHOUTING]
[CHEERING]
[THUNDER CRASHING]
[RAINDROPS PATTERING]
No man can ever hope to know
the real nature of God.
But he has given us
a glimpse of his face.
