And he had greaves of brass upon his legs, and a target of brass between his shoulders.

Verse 6 is found in chapter 17 of 1 Samuel. Goliath’s challenge establishes a confrontation between the Philistine army and Israel. Goliath bases his challenge on his size, armor, and military experience, while the Israelites respond with fear. David has not yet appeared as a fighter, but the narrative prepares the contrast between trust in visible resources and trust in God. Saul, the king previously chosen for his imposing appearance, remains paralyzed before the Philistine warrior. The chapter therefore begins questioning what it truly means to be a courageous king.

und hatte eherne Beinharnische an seinen Schenkeln und einen ehernen Schild auf seinen Schultern.
Y sobre sus piernas traía grebas de hierro, y escudo de acero a sus hombros.
Tenía protectores de bronce en las piernas y una jabalina de bronce entre los hombros.
Il avait aux jambes une armure d'airain, et un javelot d'airain entre les épaules.
Avea eziandio delle gambiere di rame in su le gambe, ed uno scudo di rame in mezzo delle spalle.
E trazia grevas de bronze por cima de seus pés, e um escudo de bronze entre os seus ombros.
他腿上有銅護膝,兩肩之中背負銅矛。
