David took the head of the Philistine and brought it to Jerusalem, and he put Goliath’s weapons in his own tent.

The priest replied, “The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom you killed in the Valley of Elah, is here; it is wrapped in a cloth behind the ephod. If you want, you may take it. For there is no other but this one.” And David said, “There is none like it; give it to me.”

The next day, when the Philistines came to strip the dead, they found Saul and his three sons fallen on Mount Gilboa.
