1 Samuel 17:55
Clementine Vulgate · Berean Standard Bible
Eo autem tempore quo viderat Saul David egredientem contra Philisthæum, ait ad Abner principem militiæ : De qua stirpe descendit hic adolescens, Abner ? Dixitque Abner : Vivit anima tua, rex, si novi.
As Saul had watched David going out to confront the Philistine, he said to Abner the commander of the army, “Abner, whose son is this young man?” “As surely as you live, O king,” Abner replied, “I do not know.”
