1 Samuel 17

• 1 Now the Philistines gathered their forces for
  war and assembled at Socoh in Judah. They pitched
  camp at Ephes Dammim, between Socoh and Azekah. 2
  Saul and the Israelites assembled and camped in
  the Valley of Elah and drew up their battle line
  to meet the Philistines. 3 The Philistines
  occupied one hill and the Israelites another,
  with the valley between them. 4 A champion named
  Goliath, who was from Gath, came out of the
  Philistine camp. He was over nine feet tall. 5 He
  had a bronze helmet on his head and wore a coat
  of scale armor of bronze weighing five thousand
  shekels 6 on his legs he wore bronze greaves,
  and a bronze javelin was slung on his back. 7 His
  spear shaft was like a weaver's rod, and its iron
  point weighed six hundred shekels. His shield
  bearer went ahead of him. 8 Goliath stood and
  shouted to the ranks of Israel, "Why do you come
  out and line up for battle? Am I not a
  Philistine, and are you not the servants of Saul?
  Choose a man and have him come down to me. 9 If
  he is able to fight and kill me, we will become
  your subjects but if I overcome him and kill
  him, you will become our subjects and serve us."
  10 Then the Philistine said, "This day I defy the
  ranks of Israel! Give me a man and let us fight
  each other." 11 On hearing the Philistine's
  words, Saul and all the Israelites were dismayed
  and terrified.

13
1 Samuel 17

• 12 Now David was the son of an Ephrathite named
  Jesse, who was from Bethlehem in Judah. Jesse had
  eight sons, and in Saul's time he was old and
  well advanced in years. 13 Jesse's three oldest
  sons had followed Saul to the war The firstborn
  was Eliab the second, Abinadab and the third,
  Shammah. 14 David was the youngest. The three
  oldest followed Saul, 15 but David went back and
  forth from Saul to tend his father's sheep at
  Bethlehem. 16 For forty days the Philistine came
  forward every morning and evening and took his
  stand. 17 Now Jesse said to his son David, "Take
  this ephah of roasted grain and these ten loaves
  of bread for your brothers and hurry to their
  camp. 18 Take along these ten cheeses to the
  commander of their unit. See how your brothers
  are and bring back some assurance from them. 19
  They are with Saul and all the men of Israel in
  the Valley of Elah, fighting against the
  Philistines." 20 Early in the morning David left
  the flock with a shepherd, loaded up and set out,
  as Jesse had directed. He reached the camp as the
  army was going out to its battle positions,
  shouting the war cry. 21 Israel and the
  Philistines were drawing up their lines facing
  each other.

14
1 Samuel 17

• 22 David left his things with the keeper of
  supplies, ran to the battle lines and greeted his
  brothers. 23 As he was talking with them,
  Goliath, the Philistine champion from Gath,
  stepped out from his lines and shouted his usual
  defiance, and David heard it. 24 When the
  Israelites saw the man, they all ran from him in
  great fear. 25 Now the Israelites had been
  saying, "Do you see how this man keeps coming
  out? He comes out to defy Israel. The king will
  give great wealth to the man who kills him. He
  will also give him his daughter in marriage and
  will exempt his father's family from taxes in
  Israel." 26 David asked the men standing near
  him, "What will be done for the man who kills
  this Philistine and removes this disgrace from
  Israel? Who is this uncircumcised Philistine that
  he should defy the armies of the living God?" 27
  They repeated to him what they had been saying
  and told him, "This is what will be done for the
  man who kills him."

15
1 Samuel 17

• 28 When Eliab, David's oldest brother, heard him
  speaking with the men, he burned with anger at
  him and asked, "Why have you come down here? And
  with whom did you leave those few sheep in the
  desert? I know how conceited you are and how
  wicked your heart is you came down only to watch
  the battle." 29 "Now what have I done?" said
  David. "Can't I even speak?" 30 He then turned
  away to someone else and brought up the same
  matter, and the men answered him as before. 31
  What David said was overheard and reported to
  Saul, and Saul sent for him. 32 David said to
  Saul, "Let no one lose heart on account of this
  Philistine your servant will go and fight him."
  33 Saul replied, "You are not able to go out
  against this Philistine and fight him you are
  only a boy, and he has been a fighting man from
  his youth." 34 But David said to Saul, "Your
  servant has been keeping his father's sheep. When
  a lion or a bear came and carried off a sheep
  from the flock, 35 I went after it, struck it and
  rescued the sheep from its mouth. When it turned
  on me, I seized it by its hair, struck it and
  killed it. 36 Your servant has killed both the
  lion and the bear this uncircumcised Philistine
  will be like one of them, because he has defied
  the armies of the living God.

16
1 Samuel 17

• 37 The LORD who delivered me from the paw of the
  lion and the paw of the bear will deliver me from
  the hand of this Philistine." Saul said to
  David, "Go, and the LORD be with you." 38 Then
  Saul dressed David in his own tunic. He put a
  coat of armor on him and a bronze helmet on his
  head. 39 David fastened on his sword over the
  tunic and tried walking around, because he was
  not used to them. "I cannot go in these," he
  said to Saul, "because I am not used to them." So
  he took them off. 40 Then he took his staff in
  his hand, chose five smooth stones from the
  stream, put them in the pouch of his shepherd's
  bag and, with his sling in his hand, approached
  the Philistine. 41 Meanwhile, the Philistine,
  with his shield bearer in front of him, kept
  coming closer to David. 42 He looked David over
  and saw that he was only a boy, ruddy and
  handsome, and he despised him. 43 He said to
  David, "Am I a dog, that you come at me with
  sticks?" And the Philistine cursed David by his
  gods. 44 "Come here," he said, "and I'll give
  your flesh to the birds of the air and the beasts
  of the field!" 45 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.

17
1 Samuel 17

• 46 This 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. 47 All those gathered
  here will know that it is not by sword or spear
  that the LORD saves for the battle is the
  LORD's, and he will give all of you into our
  hands." 48 As the Philistine moved closer to
  attack him, David ran quickly toward the battle
  line to meet him. 49 Reaching into his bag and
  taking out a stone, he slung it and struck the
  Philistine on the forehead. The stone sank into
  his forehead, and he fell facedown on the ground.
  50 So David triumphed over the Philistine with a
  sling and a stone without a sword in his hand he
  struck down the Philistine and killed him. 51
  David ran and stood over him. He took hold of the
  Philistine's sword and drew it from the scabbard.
  After he killed him, he cut off his head with the
  sword. When the Philistines saw that their hero
  was dead, they turned and ran. 52 Then the men of
  Israel and Judah surged forward with a shout and
  pursued the Philistines to the entrance of Gath
  and to the gates of Ekron. Their dead were strewn
  along the Shaaraim road to Gath and Ekron.

18
1 Samuel 17

• 53 When the Israelites returned from chasing the
  Philistines, they plundered their camp. 54 David
  took the Philistine's head and brought it to
  Jerusalem, and he put the Philistine's weapons in
  his own tent. 55 As Saul watched David going out
  to meet the Philistine, he said to Abner,
  commander of the army, "Abner, whose son is that
  young man?" Abner replied, "As surely as you
  live, O king, I don't know." 56 The king said,
  "Find out whose son this young man is." 57 As
  soon as David returned from killing the
  Philistine, Abner took him and brought him before
  Saul, with David still holding the Philistine's
  head. 58 "Whose son are you, young man?" Saul
  asked him. David said, "I am the son of your
  servant Jesse of Bethlehem."

Mark 621-28

• 21Finally the opportune time came. On his
  birthday Herod gave a banquet for his high
  officials and military commanders and the leading
  men of Galilee. 22When the daughter of Herodias
  came in and danced, she pleased Herod and his
  dinner guests. 23The king said to the girl, "Ask
  me for anything you want, and I'll give it to
  you." And he promised her with an oath, "Whatever
  you ask I will give you, up to half my kingdom."
  24She went out and said to her mother, "What
  shall I ask for?" "The head of John the
  Baptist," she answered. 25At once the girl
  hurried in to the king with the request "I want
  you to give me right now the head of John the
  Baptist on a platter." 26The king was greatly
  distressed, but because of his oaths and his
  dinner guests, he did not want to refuse her.
  27So he immediately sent an executioner with
  orders to bring John's head. The man went,
  beheaded John in the prison, 28and brought back
  his head on a platter. He presented it to the
  girl, and she gave it to her mother.

1 Samuel 28 13-25

• 13 The king said to her, "Don't be afraid. What
  do you see?" The woman said, "I see a spirit
  coming up out of the ground." 14 "What does he
  look like?" he asked. "An old man wearing a robe
  is coming up," she said. Then Saul knew it was
  Samuel, and he bowed down and prostrated himself
  with his face to the ground. 15 Samuel said to
  Saul, "Why have you disturbed me by bringing me
  up?" "I am in great distress," Saul said. "The
  Philistines are fighting against me, and God has
  turned away from me. He no longer answers me,
  either by prophets or by dreams. So I have called
  on you to tell me what to do." 16 Samuel said,
  "Why do you consult me, now that the LORD has
  turned away from you and become your enemy? 17
  The LORD has done what he predicted through me.
  The LORD has torn the kingdom out of your hands
  and given it to one of your neighbors-to David.
  18 Because you did not obey the LORD or carry out
  his fierce wrath against the Amalekites, the LORD
  has done this to you today. 19 The LORD will hand
  over both Israel and you to the Philistines, and
  tomorrow you and your sons will be with me. The
  LORD will also hand over the army of Israel to
  the Philistines."

24
1 Samuel 28 13-25

• 20 Immediately Saul fell full length on the
  ground, filled with fear because of Samuel's
  words. His strength was gone, for he had eaten
  nothing all that day and night. 21 When the
  woman came to Saul and saw that he was greatly
  shaken, she said, "Look, your maidservant has
  obeyed you. I took my life in my hands and did
  what you told me to do. 22 Now please listen to
  your servant and let me give you some food so you
  may eat and have the strength to go on your way."
  23 He refused and said, "I will not eat." But
  his men joined the woman in urging him, and he
  listened to them. He got up from the ground and
  sat on the couch. 24 The woman had a fattened
  calf at the house, which she butchered at once.
  She took some flour, kneaded it and baked bread
  without yeast. 25 Then she set it before Saul and
  his men, and they ate. That same night they got
  up and left.

26
Matthew 151-9

• 1Then some Pharisees and teachers of the law came
  to Jesus from Jerusalem and asked, 2"Why do your
  disciples break the tradition of the elders? They
  don't wash their hands before they eat!" 3Jesus
  replied, "And why do you break the command of God
  for the sake of your tradition? 4For God said,
  'Honor your father and mother' and 'Anyone who
  curses his father or mother must be put to
  death.' 5But you say that if a man says to his
  father or mother, 'Whatever help you might
  otherwise have received from me is a gift devoted
  to God,' 6he is not to 'honor his father ' with
  it. Thus you nullify the word of God for the sake
  of your tradition. 7You hypocrites! Isaiah was
  right when he prophesied about you     8"
  'These people honor me with their lips,
         but their hearts are far from me.    
  9They worship me in vain        their teachings
  are but rules taught by men.' "

Acts 51-11

• 1Now a man named Ananias, together with his wife
  Sapphira, also sold a piece of property. 2With
  his wife's full knowledge he kept back part of
  the money for himself, but brought the rest and
  put it at the apostles' feet. 3Then Peter said,
  "Ananias, how is it that Satan has so filled your
  heart that you have lied to the Holy Spirit and
  have kept for yourself some of the money you
  received for the land? 4Didn't it belong to you
  before it was sold? And after it was sold, wasn't
  the money at your disposal? What made you think
  of doing such a thing? You have not lied to men
  but to God." 5When Ananias heard this, he fell
  down and died. And great fear seized all who
  heard what had happened. 6Then the young men came
  forward, wrapped up his body, and carried him out
  and buried him. 7About three hours later his
  wife came in, not knowing what had happened.
  8Peter asked her, "Tell me, is this the price you
  and Ananias got for the land?" "Yes," she said,
  "that is the price." 9Peter said to her, "How
  could you agree to test the Spirit of the Lord?
  Look! The feet of the men who buried your husband
  are at the door, and they will carry you out
  also." 10At that moment she fell down at his
  feet and died. Then the young men came in and,
  finding her dead, carried her out and buried her
  beside her husband. 11Great fear seized the whole
  church and all who heard about these events.
