David

Story
The story of David is written in the Old Testament of the Bible. The army which God is supporting is losing in a battle, so one little shepherd boy--David--asks to fight the opponent's lead fighter, Goliath. People laugh, but give him armor, which is too heavy. In the end, he kills Goliath using only his slingshot, and cuts off the giant's head with a sword.
