1 Samuel 17:28-30

Contemporary English Version

²⁸ David's oldest brother Eliab heard him talking with the soldiers. Eliab was angry with him and said, “What are you doing here, anyway? Who's taking care of your little flock of sheep out in the desert? You spoiled brat! You came here just to watch the fighting, didn't you?”

²⁹ “Now what have I done?” David answered. “Can't I even ask a question?” ³⁰ Then he turned and asked another soldier the same thing he had asked the others, and he got the same answer.
