1 Samuel 17:45-52
New International Version
45 David said to the Philistine, “You come against me with sword and spear and javelin,(A) but I come against you in the name(B) of the Lord Almighty, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied.(C) 46 This day the Lord will deliver(D) you into my hands, and I’ll strike you down and cut off your head. This very day I will give the carcasses(E) of the Philistine army to the birds and the wild animals, and the whole world(F) will know that there is a God in Israel.(G) 47 All those gathered here will know that it is not by sword(H) or spear that the Lord saves;(I) for the battle(J) 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(K) 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 sheath. After he killed him, he cut(L) off his head with the sword.(M)
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[a] and to the gates of Ekron.(N) Their dead were strewn along the Shaaraim(O) road to Gath and Ekron.

19 Gideon and the hundred men with him reached the edge of the camp at the beginning of the middle watch, just after they had changed the guard. They blew their trumpets and broke the jars(A) that were in their hands. 20 The three companies blew the trumpets and smashed the jars. Grasping the torches(B) in their left hands and holding in their right hands the trumpets they were to blow, they shouted, “A sword(C) for the Lord and for Gideon!” 21 While each man held his position around the camp, all the Midianites ran, crying out as they fled.(D)

1 Samuel 14:6-16
New International Version
6 Jonathan said to his young armor-bearer, “Come, let’s go over to the outpost of those uncircumcised(A) men. Perhaps the Lord will act in our behalf. Nothing(B) can hinder the Lord from saving, whether by many(C) or by few.(D)”
7 “Do all that you have in mind,” his armor-bearer said. “Go ahead; I am with you heart and soul.”
8 Jonathan said, “Come on, then; we will cross over toward them and let them see us. 9 If they say to us, ‘Wait there until we come to you,’ we will stay where we are and not go up to them. 10 But if they say, ‘Come up to us,’ we will climb up, because that will be our sign(E) that the Lord has given them into our hands.(F)”
11 So both of them showed themselves to the Philistine outpost. “Look!” said the Philistines. “The Hebrews(G) are crawling out of the holes they were hiding(H) in.” 12 The men of the outpost shouted to Jonathan and his armor-bearer, “Come up to us and we’ll teach you a lesson.(I)”
So Jonathan said to his armor-bearer, “Climb up after me; the Lord has given them into the hand(J) of Israel.”
13 Jonathan climbed up, using his hands and feet, with his armor-bearer right behind him. The Philistines fell before Jonathan, and his armor-bearer followed and killed behind him. 14 In that first attack Jonathan and his armor-bearer killed some twenty men in an area of about half an acre.
Israel Routs the Philistines
15 Then panic(K) struck the whole army—those in the camp and field, and those in the outposts and raiding(L) parties—and the ground shook. It was a panic sent by God.[a]
16 Saul’s lookouts(M) at Gibeah in Benjamin saw the army melting away in all directions.
