Thus equipped, David hurried to meet his foe. We can only imagine David's fervent prayers as he stooped in the dry riverbed on the valley floor and collected five small, smooth stones. Then he went out onto the field of battle not walking but running!
When Goliath saw his opponent, what did he think? "He sneered at him in contempt," we read, "Because he was just a ruddy and handsome boy." Goliath boomed out: "Am I a dog, so that you are coming against me with sticks?" Evidently, he saw David's staff but took no note of the sling. He cursed David in the name of the Philistine gods and vowed to free the corpse of this contemptible foe to the birds and beasts of the field. - 1 SAMUEL 17:41-44.
