Philistine Giants Killed

1 Chronicles 20

4 Now it happened afterward e that war broke out at 1 Gezer with the Philistines, at which time f Sibbechai the Hushathite killed 2 Sippai, who was one of the sons of 3 the giant. And they were subdued. 5 Again there was war with the Philistines, and Elhanan the son of 4 Jair killed Lahmi the brother of Goliath the Gittite, the shaft of whose spear was like a weaver's g beam. 6 Yet again h there was war at Gath, where there was a man of great stature, with twenty-four fingers and toes, six on each hand and six on each foot; and he also was born to 5 the giant. 7 So when he defied Israel, Jonathan the son of 6 Shimea, David's brother, killed him. 8 These were born to the giant in Gath, and they fell by the hand of David and by the hand of his servants.
