Philistines 사람으로
Gath 출신의 거인 장수이다.
사울(왕) 시절 이스라엘을 공격하러 왔는데, 그 거대하고 용맹한 모습에 이스라엘 군대가 두려워하였다.
4 A champion out of the camp of the Philistines named Goliath , of Gath , whose height was six cubits and a span went out.
5 He had a helmet of bronze on his head, and he wore a coat of mail; and the weight of the coat was five thousand shekels of bronze.
6 He had bronze shin armor on his legs, and a bronze javelin between his shoulders.
7 The staff of his spear was like a weaver’s beam; and his spear’s head weighed six hundred shekels of iron. His shield bearer went before him.
8 He stood and cried to the armies of Israel , and said to them, “Why have you come out to set your battle in array? Am I not a Philistine, and you servants to Saul? Choose a man for yourselves, and let him come down to me.
9 If he is able to fight with me and kill me, then will we be your servants; but if I prevail against him and kill him, then you will be our servants and serve us.”
10 The Philistine said, “I defy the armies of Israel today! Give me a man, that we may fight together!”
11 When Saul and all Israel heard those words of the Philistine, they were dismayed, and greatly afraid.

David 이 전장에 나간 형들을 살펴보러 왔다가 골리앗의 도발을 보고 분노하여 물맷돌을 이용해 쓰러트려 죽인다.
이 사건으로 다윗은 이스라엘의 국민 영웅이 된다.
그가 사용하던 칼이 성소에 보관되어있었던 것으로 보인다.
The priest said, “Behold, the sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom you killed in the valley of Elah, is here wrapped in a cloth behind the ephod . If you would like to take that, take it; for there is no other except that here.” David said, “There is none like that. Give it to me.”

15 The Philistines had war again with Israel ; and David went down, and his servants with him, and fought against the Philistines. David grew faint;
16 and Ishbibenob, who was of the sons of the giant, the weight of whose spear was three hundred shekels of bronze in weight, he being armed with a new sword, thought he would kill David .
17 But Abishai the son of Zeruiah helped him, and struck the Philistine, and killed him. Then the men of David swore to him, saying, “Don’t go out with us to battle any more, so that you don’t quench the lamp of Israel .”
18 After this, there was again war with the Philistines at Gob . Then Sibbecai the Hushathite killed Saph, who was of the sons of the giant.
19 There was again war with the Philistines at Gob; and Elhanan the son of Jaare-Oregim the Bethlehemite killed Goliath the Gittite’s brother, the staff of whose spear was like a weaver’s beam.
20 There was again war at Gath , where there was a man of great stature, who had six fingers on every hand, and six toes on every foot, twenty four in count; and he also was born to the giant.
21 When he defied Israel , Jonathan the son of Shimei, David ’s brother, killed him.
22 These four were born to the giant in Gath ; and they fell by the hand of David , and by the hand of his servants.
