50 So David, with a sling and a stone, proved stronger than the Phi·lisʹtine and struck the Phi·lisʹtine down and put him to death; and there was no sword in David’s hand.+

7 And the women that were celebrating kept responding and saying:

5 And he proceeded to put his soul in his palm+ and strike the Phi·lisʹtine down,+ so that Jehovah performed a great salvation*+ for all Israel. You saw it, and you gave way to rejoicing. So why should you sin against innocent blood in having David put to death+ for nothing?”+

25 Accordingly David did that way, just as Jehovah had commanded him,+ and he went striking down+ the Phi·lisʹtines from Geʹba*+ to as far as Geʹzer.+

5 When Syria* of Damascus+ came to help Had·ad·eʹzer the king of Zoʹbah, David then struck down among the Syrians twenty-two thousand men.+
