51 He ran to him, stood over him, took Goliath's sword out of its sheath, and cut off his head and killed him.When the Philistines saw that their hero was dead, they ran away.
52 The men of Israel and Judah shouted and ran after them, pursuing them all the way to Gath and to the gates of Ekron. The Philistines fell wounded all along the road that leads to Shaaraim, as far as Gath and Ekron.
53 When the Israelites came back from pursuing the Philistines, they looted their camp.
54 David picked up Goliath's head and took it to Jerusalem, but he kept Goliath's weapons in his own tent.
55 When Saul saw David going out to fight Goliath, he asked Abner, the commander of his army, “Abner, whose son is he?”“I have no idea, Your Majesty,” Abner answered.
56 “Then go and find out,” Saul ordered.
57 So when David returned to camp after killing Goliath, Abner took him to Saul. David was still carrying Goliath's head.
