1 Samuel17:20

20 And David rose up early in the morning, and left the sheep with a keeper, and took, and went as Jesse had commanded him: and he came to the trench as the host was going forth to the fight, and shouted for the battel.

i. e. To the Camp or Army which was there Intrenched.

As the manner was, both to animate themselves, and to terrifie their Enemies.

Marginal references: Or, place of the carriage.; In battel-ray, or place of fight.
