Philistine Giants Killed
4 (B)And after this there arose war with the Philistines at Gezer. Then Sibbecai the Hushathite struck down Sippai, who was one of the descendants of the giants, and the Philistines were subdued. 5 And there was again war with the Philistines, and Elhanan the son of (C)Jair struck down Lahmi (D)the brother of Goliath the Gittite, the shaft of whose spear was like a weaver's beam.
