SEV Biblia, Chapter 17:45
Entonces dijo David al filisteo: Tú vienes a mí con cuchillo y lanza y escudo; mas yo vengo a ti en el nombre del SEŃOR de los ejércitos, el Dios de los escuadrones de Israel, que tú has deshonrado.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - 1 Samuel 17:45
Verse 45. Thou comest to me with a sword] I come to thee with the name ( µŤb beshem) of Jehovah of hosts; the God of the armies of Israel. What Goliath expected from his arms, David expected from the ineffable name.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 45. Then said David to the Philistine , etc.] In answer to the contempt he held him in, and to the threatening words he gave him: thou comest to me with a sword, and with a spear, and with a shield ; the word for “shield” is not the same with that so rendered, ( 1 Samuel 17:41); which his armourbearer carried before him, but with that translated a “target”, which was between his shoulders, ( 1 Samuel 17:6); however, they were all weapons of war, either defensive or offensive: but I come to thee in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom thou hast defied ; the Lord of all hosts, in heaven and in earth in general, and in particular the God of the armies of Israel; which he was at the head of, led on, protected and defended, having a kind and merciful regard unto them, and which this Philistine had defied, reproached, and blasphemed; and now David was come, by a commission from this great Jehovah, to vindicate his honour, and to avenge his people on him: he had asked for a man, and now the Lord of hosts, as the Jews f378 observe, comes forth as a man of war, for the battle was his, as in ( Samuel 17:47); and David was his messenger, and came in his name, and was the man into whose hands he should be given.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 40-47 - The security and presumption of fools destroy them. Nothing can exce the humility, faith, and piety which appear in David's words. He expressed his assured expectation of success; he gloried in his mea appearance and arms, that the victory might be ascribed to the Lor alone.
