David (2025) Movie Script

1
Oh boy.
Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy,
oh boy, oh boy, oh boy.
Ha ha!
It's time!
Stand aside, stand
aside, Gibor! Ha ha!
Thank you, Abirra.
Thank you, Yala.
Oh! Hey, hey, hey, Shira.
Don't worry, I got you.
You're a bit early,
aren't you girl?
Stand back, everyone.
The flock's about to
get a little bigger.
It's okay girl, you're good.
Just breathe.
We'll get this little one out,
then I promise...
I'll bring you home.
Stay together.
If we stay close, stay tight,
it won't be able to
single anyone out.
I can't do this alone.
No, wait!
Just stay quiet girl.
He hasn't seen you.
That's it.
Eyes on me.
On...
Me.
No, no, no, no!
No!
No!
God spoke to me.
Eh, it comes with
being a prophet.
Oh!
He told me very clearly
that I was to come
to this very house
and anoint a son of Jesse
to be the next king.
But
it is none of these.
That one had potential
though.
Unless, perhaps you
have another son?
Oh, no.
Shira.
Shira!
No!
Shira.
I'm so sorry.
Huh? What?
Shira?
Shira, you're alive?!
Oh.
Oh, ho, ho!
That'll teach you to
mess with my sheep.
Whoo!
I'm so glad you're okay.
And who is this little one?
Oh. Oh, she's my lamb, is she?
Tali.
Well, Tali.
Let's go and introduce you to
the others and get you home.
Wait here, girl.
Whew.
Whooo! Ha ha.
Now, where are the others?
Hey! Hey, it's okay,
he's gone, you're safe.
You can come out now.
Don't you want to come out?
Meet the new baby?
I know that was scary,
but doesn't it make
you feel more alive?
And do you know what?
I don't see a bunch
of scared sheep.
Do you know what I see?
Mighty horses! Ready
to take on the world!
I'm scared too sometimes,
but somewhere deep
down, I know...
There's a light
in the distance
And if you listen
You'll hear it
calling your name
It takes courage to follow
But trust me and lets go
And you'll see the
world start to change
So don't waste a
moment on staying
Too focused on
problems that might
Be ahead
And when it gets dark
Don't ever let
your heart forget
To run, run,
toward adventure
To whatever comes your way
Come on and taste the
kind of freedom
Only the wilderness contains
Don't care if
people call us crazy
What's the fun
in playing safe
I wanna run, run, run
Feel the wind blowing
The sun in your eyes
And breathe in
those mercies so new
Come on, can't you see it
Those wide open skies
They call and my
feet have to move
I wasn't called to be
caged by four walls
I'm exactly where
I want to be
If my future was up to me
I'd only want to be free, oh
I wanna run, run
with the horses
Through the water
and the flame
What's to fear when
Heaven's with me
When the unknown
calls my name
I wanna climb the
highest mountain
Face whatever comes my way
I wanna run, run, run
Hoo! Okay.
Alright guys.
So on the count of three...
We're all going to run.
I... I didn't say three yet!
Guys!
Okay, slow down! Here I come!
I want to run, run
toward adventure
- To whatever comes my way
- David's coming!
I want to taste
the kind of freedom
- Only the wilderness contains
- Ooh, everyday!
Don't care if
people call me crazy
You're crazy!
What's the fun
in playing safe
Get out of the way!
I wanna run, run, run
Oh no.
Oh, the food!
Please not the food!
Whoa! Coming in!
Oof!
David!
A goat? When did we get a goat?
Huh?
Hmm.
Er. Sh-Shalom.
It-It wasn't me.
And if it was, I can explain.
Maybe.
Uh, what's happening?
Remember when I told you
God had big plans for you?
Well, they may have been
bigger than even I thought.
David,
son of Jesse.
Are you ready for
a great adventure?
Uh, yes!
As King of Israel.
What? No.
No?
No, no, no, no.
Don't mess this
up for me, David.
If you're king, then I
get to be a princess.
I can't be king.
We already have a king.
That's right.
Which makes this treason.
Oh, now it's treason?
And, uh, what was it when
he was considering you?
Ugh, I am a soldier
in Saul's army!
I have been nothing but
faithful to my father,
King Saul, and God!
That is wonderful.
Continue to do so.
You can't take the youngest
and elevate him
above the rest of us!
Do you want me to take his place
and shepherd the flock again?
No, Ozem will take
over shepherding.
Wait, what?
No. Nethanel can do it.
I'm not doing it.
The twins can do it.
- Don't bring us into this.
- Yeah.
- Boys.
- Whatever.
Don't look at me.
- Way to go.
- Way to go, David.
Boys.
Sorry.
I like it. Do it again.
I do not come here lightly.
The very hearts of the
people are at stake.
There is the darkness
over the land.
Philistines?
The Philistines are
a threat, to be sure.
They lord over us
with power and pride.
But there is a graver
danger we face.
Amalekites?
The Amalekites are
nothing but scavengers.
And they are always watching,
always waiting in the shadows.
Just as they preyed on
the weak and vulnerable
when we escaped Pharaoh,
they wait for us to be divided,
for the sheep to scatter
and they will strike once more.
But our true battle is not
against flesh and blood,
but in our hearts.
Did our enemies make
us turn away from God?
No. We demanded a king.
So, God gave us King Saul
whose love of the crown
has consumed him.
And now, we see the cost
of putting our faith in man.
Philistines, Amalekites,
Saul.
We are hard pressed
on every side.
But at last,
God has chosen another.
Someone with a heart after His.
But I don't want to be king.
That is surprisingly
good criteria for a king.
I'm just a shepherd.
The people are lost, David.
Astray in a storm.
A shepherd
is precisely who they need.
But God is my shepherd.
He's who we need.
Every excuse you give
is another reason
it must be you.
But... Yes?
Stand before me, son of Jesse.
Ba-ruch haba
B'shem Adonai
Bay-rach-nu-chem
Mi-bayt Adonai
Hodu Ladonai
Ki-tov
Ki L'olam
Chasdo
So, what happens now?
Do Saul and David
fight to the death?
No. No.
This is a gift that
must remain secret.
We have heard
about David's gift.
He must come before
King Saul at once.
They couldn't have known.
What have you
brought on our house?
They cannot know I'm here.
If Saul finds out about this,
none of you will be safe.
Zeruiah, no!
Who goes there?
It is I, Princess Zeruiah.
Hmph, is David here?
Get out of here.
We'll distract him.
Sh-Shalom.
King Saul is greatly disturbed.
David must come with me at once.
I- I-Look, David is.
Here.
I'm right here.
Oh, dear boy.
He is going to eat you alive.
Welcome to Gibeah.
Hey, you.
Strawberries!
Get your fresh picked
strawberries here!
Get your fresh fruit here!
Here we go.
- On the count of three.
- Come on.
Get some more tension
into that line, boys!
All right.
Finally, you're here!
Where
do you want this one?
Just
like that. Good, good.
Woo-hoo-hoo!
This is the one from
Bethlehem, Your Grace.
Where is your instrument?
Er, instrument?
You can't exactly
play for my husband
without an instrument.
Play?
And you can't go
before him like this.
What's in your hair?
Oil?
Uh. Whoa.
Whoo!
Sorry.
Oh, not at all.
In fact, here, why don't
you stand in front of me?
Oh, okay.
Wait a second.
Where do you think
you are going?
Prince Jonathan,
we really must see your
father quite urgently.
Now's really not the best time.
The affairs of state
cannot be put on hold
while you pacify your father's.
Do you think
this is helping me?!
We'll put the affairs
of state on hold now.
Clearly it's not the best time.
What's going on?
Saul called for every
musician in the kingdom.
Music used to soothe him.
Get out, and
don't come back!
Yes, Your Highness.
Ah, why don't you take my place?
Oh, please. In front of me.
No, I insist. Take my place.
- Don't let me get in your way.
- Up to the front.
Ah.
Hey, kid.
What are you doing here?
Next!
I guess it's your turn.
Shhhh...
They think a child can help me?
Are you going to sing, or what?
Well I... I don't have my...
If I could just...
Get out!
Next.
No, wait!
Can I borrow this? Thank you.
You're
going back in there?
I know right?
Huh? Why are you back here?
Because now I've got this.
Just leave me in peace.
I'm gonna try.
When I feel lost
And so afraid
And shadows have
hid the sun away
When my heart is heavy
And it's hard to pray
I remember what my
mother used to say
Shalom
Shalom
Peace be with you
Wherever you go
Shalom
Shalom
Let this melody
Begin to bring you home
In desperation
When you're losing sight
You've cried out
with everything inside
There is still a shepherd
Even when you hide
Who will pick you up and
hold you till you find
Shalom Shalom
Peace be with you
wherever you go
Shalom Shalom
Let this melody begin
to bring you home
Let this melody bring you
Shalom
He-he-he didn't like it.
What's your name?
David.
Well David, I can't remember
the last time I
felt like that...
Free.
You know, I never
asked for this.
I didn't want to be king.
Me neither.
I mean, I can imagine.
Can you, David?
One minute you're tending
your father's donkeys,
the next Samuel anoints
you to be king of Israel.
And then, after all these years,
after all I've done for Israel
he tries to-to take it from me,
says he's going to
give it to another.
If I get my hands
on that prophet.
If I find out who it is Samuel
has chosen to replace me...
But then you came along.
Father, the Philistines.
The Philistines amass for war.
Today is a bad day for
them to pick a fight.
Ready my horse.
David, you have done your
king a great service.
Return to your fields.
And while you're there, write
a victory song for my return.
This is not what
I signed up for.
So this is not
going to end well.
Come on men.
Spirits up, you are mighty
soldiers in the Israelite army.
If by mighty you mean scared
and by soldiers you mean
farmers, then sure, that's us.
You underestimate
who's on our side.
Do you see this, Jonathan?
We haven't even faced
the Philistines yet.
I did this to myself, with this.
It's not even a real weapon.
- Ow.
- I am so sorry. Are you okay?
- Yup, we're dead.
- Have a little faith men.
Oh I do have a little
faith, very little.
Saul, Saul, Saul.
I thought we had an agreement.
I allow you and
your little tribes
to live in this land and you
I know our agreement Achish.
We pay your taxes,
we get our tools sharpened
by your blacksmiths.
Well I must say, a
lot of your tools
are looking very pointy.
That was not part
of our arrangement.
Well, perhaps it's time
to come to new terms.
Ooh, those are
fighting words Saul.
Your army is clearly
no match for mine.
I would rather
not kill all those
potential workers for my fields,
so why don't we
make this simpler?
Your best warrior, against mine?
Father, you're more than
a match for any Philistine.
Besides, God fights for us.
So be it.
Choose your man
to fight, Achish.
Good.
Very good. Very, very,
very good.
Deal.
Bring out Goliath.
He's huge.
Oh, that's not him.
That's his armor bearer.
- He's huge.
- Like a mountain.
He's the biggest
thing I've ever seen,
and I once seen a whale.
I like horses.
Not much else will
fill me up.
This day, Goliath defies
the ranks of Israel.
Choose a man to fight me.
If he wins, the Philistines
will be your subjects.
If I beat him,
you will serve us.
Summon my advisors.
Don't worry, take your time.
Goliath is nothing if not
patient.
Shimea get an Ephah of grain.
What's an Ephah?
Ozem, the sheep.
Ima, Ima, look.
Yes, dear. It's beautiful.
Hmm, stress weaving again?
I'm allowed.
Eliab and Abinadab have
been called to war,
I still don't know
what happening with...
David.
David!
Oh yay. Ow.
Oh, I missed you guys.
Are you king yet?
Do you have a crown?
Can I wear it?
No.
David.
It's a relief to see
you in one piece.
Are you all right?
Did he find out
about the anointing?
Have you eaten?
Is the family in danger?
They touched your hair.
What happened with Saul?
Nothing happened.
What's going on here?
Well, the town has been
asked for supplies for the war.
Where are the supplies?
I got hungry.
From the house to the donkey?
Huh-uh-uh. Where do
you think you're going?
You haven't told me
what happened yet.
Nothing, it's all okay.
I just want to head
back to the fields.
Saul was troubled
and I played for him,
that's all.
I just... The whole
time I was in Gibeah,
nothing made sense.
Am I meant to lie?
Am I meant to help
Saul, or hate him,
or obey him, or fight him?
I just don't know!
Things are simple out there.
Everything makes sense.
But with the anointing,
with the king thing
I just don't
understand what God's doing.
Nor do I.
And that's why I do this.
Stress-weaving again?
That's not the point.
Look here. Beautiful isn't it?
Um, it's not your best.
Every
thread has a purpose.
They all have a place.
It looks messy, but when
you see the finished picture
on the other side,
they all make sense.
You're just like one
of these threads.
Am even I there?
Yup, here you are
and there's Tali.
Yes Ozem, even you.
Uh, Ima.
I love you.
Ima!
Hey let me see.
Nope, it's not finished yet.
Play me something.
But...
Go on, something new.
I don't know what to play
That's okay
This is just a random phrase
But it sounds good anyway
No song arrives
fully written
No pot begins fully formed
Are you calling me a pot?
Kind of...
But you're so much more
The sheep they do not
know where they are going
but they're following the
shepherd where he leads
The flower does not
know how it is growing
But the rain still falls
and gives it what it needs
There's a reason for the
colors in your story
There's a picture though
you cannot see it yet
Every thread has a purpose
and soon you'll see
Your part in this tapestry
Hey, hey!
And when you feel like
nothing is connecting
And you're searching for
an answer you can't find
Just remember that each
strand is intersecting
To reveal what the creator
has designed
Any masterpiece is gonna
take some time
There's a reason for the
colors in your story
If there's a reason
I can't find it
There's a picture though
You cannot see it yet
Sure I believe
That every thread
has a purpose
But I don't see
Soon you'll see
Your part in this tapestry
So lift your eyes
above the hills
Higher up and higher still
If you could see
from heaven's view
All the plans
drawn out for you
Like the way we
work the loom
He knits you from
inside the womb
Every string is
used in His design
I lift my eyes
above the hills
Though it's not
clear I know I will
Catch the view
that heaven sees
And leap into
His plans for me
I'll find out where
This story goes
Now you see
I'm not there yet
But now I know
Just believe
The One who brought
this world to
life Adonai
Has seen it all
before it's time
Perfect time
So ready or not,
come what may
I'll face whatever
may come my way
'Cause everything is
used in His design
There's a reason for
the colors in my story
El Shaddai will be your
guide when you can't see
Every thread has a
purpose and I believe
I'm part of this
You're part in this
Tapestry
We're part of this
Tapestry
What are you two singing for?
There is carrying to be done.
Someone needs to take
our supplies to the army.
They wouldn't arrive with
Nethanel, perhaps Ozem?
I know who can take it, right?
Here, look after Tali
for me won't you?
Right.
Wait, where's David going?
Fresh
supplies over here.
Hey kid, over here!
I laugh
while you cower.
Where are you going?
Excuse me.
David!
What are you doing here?
I brought cheese and bread.
Ooh, and figs.
I defeat you
without lifting a finger.
Who's doing all the shouting?
You are putting the
whole family in danger
by being here to
what? Watch a battle?
Oh calm down Eliab,
who wouldn't want to see
the glorious Israelite
army in action?
You are
an army of cowards.
- He's not wrong.
- Fair point, fair point.
Not even your
God can save you
from the might of
the Philistines.
Oh yeah? Come over here
and we'll see about that.
Sh-sh-shhh, Goliath
might hear you.
Who's Goliath?
Imagine the biggest
warrior you have ever seen.
Okay?
Now imagine somebody ate him.
It doesn't matter how big he is.
With God on our side,
even I could fight him.
- You?
- Yes.
He thinks he can beat
Goliath!
With God fighting for us it
could be you, or you, or you.
Me?
Well, looks
like it's going to be you.
I cannot wait to
see who you send to face me.
What about our new
treaty proposal?
Sire, with all due respect,
King Achish knows he
has the upper hand.
He will not be interested
in a new treaty.
Yes, but was it
presented to him?
What did he say?
He said, "I have the upper hand,
and I am not interested
in a new treaty."
Father, we're out of options.
I will go and fight him.
I will not send my son
on a suicide mission.
This Philistine is no
match for the God of Israel.
I said no!
You again?
A song can do little here, boy.
I haven't come to sing.
Then why are you here?
I- I will fight Goliath.
I'm serious. I
will fight Goliath.
Ah David. Once again you
have lightened my spirits.
Your presence here
is most welcome.
You're so small.
What difference does
size make to a giant?
I will rip
him limb from limb.
You're not afraid to
go out there alone?
I won't be alone.
Oh this is ridiculous.
Just look at him.
Yeah, look at me.
I've fought lions and bears, Me!
God protected me when they
came for my father's sheep,
and He will do the
same against Goliath.
And I saw him tame one other
beast when no others could.
Is that what I've
become, a beast?
I know who you really are.
The one God chose
to lead His people.
I know you still
recognize His voice.
What is it telling you?
Sire, you cannot
be considering...
Suit him up.
But sire...
Or you could go, if you want?
Get him ready.
I defeat you without.
Is that really
necessary? Okay.
Today we will see if
God is still with us...
Or not.
I can't go out in this.
You're right, there
are still too many gaps.
Here, here, and here.
Much better.
Yes, but can he move?
Of course he can.
You can, can't you?
David?
Oh dear.
Who's it
going to be, Saul?
Huh.
I will not be afraid...
Uh-oh.
David, you fool.
Silence.
Uh, where are you going?
This is an insult.
Yes, a great insult.
An insult you should crush.
A child? You expect
me to fight a child?
No. No no no no.
No, no way. No, of course not.
But yes, that's exactly
what I expect you to do.
Do you think this is a game?
I will make you
a snack for the crows.
Or maybe they'll
get a giant feast.
I suppose it would be a shame
to have come all
this way for nothing.
Marvelous.
Oops, missed.
Are you sure you want
to continue this, kid?
You don't even
have a real weapon.
Maybe he can't lift one.
You think your weapons
can do anything
against the God
who parted the sea?
The God who came in
a pillar of fire?
Wait, what are you saying?
You come against me
with sword and spear,
but I come against you
in the name of the God
of heaven and earth.
The battle is His and He
will give you into our hands.
By Dagon. Here I was
thinking that Saul had sent
a boy to do a man's job.
While actually, he was
setting me up to fight a God.
Well that's more like it.
This I can get behind.
Who would like to see
Goliath take on a God!
I accept
Your challenge.
And I now challenge You to
show Yourself and let us fight.
Come down here, Israelite God,
and I will make you kneel
before the might of Goliath!
Ah!
Do you really think one stone
is enough to defeat
my entire army?
Yaah!
Hm?
Did you see that, Eliab.
That's our brother!
God is with him, father.
God is with him!
Yaahhh!
I told you.
But now he will need God
more than ever.
Please. Look after him.
It's the king!
Here comes the king!
David! David! David!
David, you saved us!
I lent him my lyre, you know.
You're our champion!
He is brave, he is true.
No!
- No?
- No?
No! It's not about me.
And he's so humble too!
David! David! David!
No!
Don't look at me, look at God.
Just look at him, the
way he looks at God.
No, you don't get it.
What don't we get?
- We don't get it.
- Tell us!
But he does!
Yeah tell us.
Okay, okay, listen, listen!
Everyone quiet!
David's going to speak!
Er...
Would you mind?
There's a light
I've always followed
When I'm looking for the way
When I'm searching
for the answer
In the moments I'm afraid
There's a whisper in the wind
and a story in the sky
When I'm looking for a lantern
to illuminate the night
If you want the secret of
freedom and feeling alive
You gotta follow the light
Follow the light
Feel the rushing wind as
you're running into the wild
That's right, yeah!
We'll see the sun
rise out of the ash
As we hold nothing back
When the shadows come,
we won't run from the fight
Come on and follow the light
Oh
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah Oh
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah Oh
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah Oh
Come on and follow the light
If there's one thing that I
know, I'm nothing but a man
With the heart of a lion
and the spirit of a lamb
Every battle that I've won,
every giant that I've faced
I have never been alone,
even on my darkest day
If you want the secret of
freedom and feeling alive
You gotta follow the light
Follow the light
Feel the rushing wind as
you're running into the wild
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
We'll see the sun rise
Out of the ash
As we hold nothing back
When the shadows come,
we won't run from the fight
So come on and
follow the light
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Come on and follow the light
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Oh
Come on and follow the light
Fire! One step,
one leap of faith,
Look! Letting go
is all it takes
Running with the One
who hears your voice
And makes the
mountains shake
When you can't see the road,
there's a fire in your soul
Trust and let it guide
you anywhere you go
You gotta follow the light
Follow the light
Feel the rushing wind as
you're running into the wild
Oh, yeah We'll
see the sun rise
Out of the ash
As we hold nothing back
When the shadows come,
we won't run from the fight
So come on and
follow the light
Oh
Come on and follow
Oh
Come on and follow
the light Oh
Oh
Come on and follow the light
David!
You have given our people
hope once more!
We have never been so united.
Now is the time
to fully establish
the glory of our kingdom!
We will strike each
Philistine outpost.
Starting with Ziklag.
We will crush them underfoot,
the way they once crushed us!
And who better to lead us
into battle than David!
My king, would you
like us to enquire of God
if this is His will?
I am God's anointed king.
My bidding is His will.
Whoa!
What happened to
the Philistines?
It's abandoned.
They left
everything behind.
Why would they
leave in such a hurry?
What is it?
Amalekites.
Stop!
Father?
Saul.
No.
Father? What is it?
Father?
We must leave this place.
- Now.
- But father.
I said now!
Saul.
It's too late, Saul.
No, please no.
The Amalekites escape!
The kingdom has been torn.
Saul! Saul!
Saul! Saul! Saul!
Have I not brought victory?
See how we honor God
with this offering!
You honor yourself!
While you feast, the
Amalekites escape!
Just as they attacked and
killed the weakest of us
when we escaped Pharaoh!
You have put your entire
people in danger
because of your pride.
We will never truly be free
with you on the throne.
Don't turn your back on me!
It's too late, Saul.
Today the kingdom has
been torn from you
and given to another.
It's you.
It's you Samuel
chose to replace me!
Tell me...
Tell me it isn't so.
I, I can't.
I invited you into my home!
My king.
I loved you like a son!
I have done nothing
but serve you.
You are the anointed king.
Jonathan is just.
Don't!
Say it.
Your words, your, your songs,
they have bewitched me!
Go on.
Are you not man enough to
fight me for the throne?
I have never wanted the throne.
Lies!
You have stolen the
hearts of my people.
Even my own family
loves you more than me.
What's left to take
but my crown?
The crown belongs to God.
God!
God has turned his back on me,
and now he has turned
his back on you!
Seize him, he tried to kill me!
Hey, you!
There he is!
- Get him!
- Come back here!
He tried
to kill the king!
Stop!
Father, what happened?
He, he tried to kill me!
Who?
Come back here!
- Stop him!
- Don't let him escape!
Shoot, son, shoot!
Don't
let him get away!
- David?
- David?
It's him, Jonathan.
He's the one Samuel chose
to replace me.
To replace you.
A traitor worming his
way into our hearts.
Finish this, now!
As long as David lives neither
you nor I will be safe.
The crown belongs to us.
Watch it!
The crown belongs to God.
Farewell, my brother.
Seal off the city.
No one in or out
until he's found.
Don't let him out
of your sights!
Come back here!
There's nowhere to run!
Men. Follow me.
Hey, David!
David, where are you going?
Find him!
Put to the sword
anyone who aids him!
Those loyal to David...
Are disloyal to me!
Find David!
He tried to kill Saul!
It's David!
Run, run, hurry!
What's going on?
David
tried to kill Saul!
David? No! Never!
Hey! Thief!
Stop the thief!
- Ugh!
- Hey, watch it!
David?
What have you done?
Nothing!
Flush out the traitor!
Where is he?
It doesn't sound like nothing!
Eliab, please.
No. This stops tonight.
You've put us all in danger.
If you aren't willing
to do the right thing
to protect our family, I will.
Let go of me.
I need to go.
Follow me.
Run! Run!
Where is he?
That way.
What was that?
Get to Bethlehem and
get our family to safety.
I don't get it
What am I supposed to do
without Your light
Cause I don't understand
how this is justified
I never asked for this,
I wasn't after this
But now I'm hunted
like an animal
But I'm innocent
I'm lost if I go but
I'm dead if I stay
No matter the road,
I won't win either way
Must I go it alone
Will I ever be safe
AHHHHHHH
Why God, why have You
forsaken me now
I'm trying to
feel You somehow
As I run from the
shadow of death
Back to the wilderness
Why God, why would
You lead me on
You show me a glimpse
then You're gone
I'm trying to carry on
Oh why God
Ima!
Ima!
When we cannot
see the other side
Be the star we follow
through the night
'Til we see the
sun, o Adonai
Hear our cry
When we're lost and afraid
be the way and the light
Show us Your strength
as we walk through the fire
Leader of Israel,
my El Shaddai
Ah
My God, You have not
forsaken us now
Oh You will
work it together
Somehow
As we run from the
shadow of death
Back to the wilderness
My God Why God
I know You lead us though
I can't feel You
With You we are never alone
I can't hear You
You're the One
Who will bring us Shalom
My God Why God
Oh
Oh
Oh
Are You out there
I
know You hear me
My God
Wake up.
Wake up, dead man.
Wakey, wakey!
Definitely dead.
Good.
Okay.
Now don't suddenly
turn out to be alive
while I'm taking your
sandals, alright?
Dead bodies coming back to life,
oh, scare the heck out of me.
What did I just say?
Hey, what have
you found, Zaydel?
A not dead enough dead-man.
You robbing
a defenseless man again?
No, I was looting his corpse.
Big difference.
It's David!
What? What are you doing?
Don't give him stuff!
That's the opposite of
what I'm trying to do.
God favors him today that
we came across his path.
God's favor doesn't
look like what I expected.
Help me.
Wait, he's still got
one of my new sandals!
Ooo!
Elhanan, Abishai,
what are you doing here?
Saul didn't take too kindly
to anyone loyal to you.
Or thieves.
He didn't like them.
Nice sandals.
Oh! Thanks!
I had them for ages.
We're glad you're all right.
Hey you. Huh!
Come on, the
others will want to see you.
Others?
Who are all these people?
Everyone who's
running from Saul.
David! Oh!
Ima!
I missed you so much!
Is the family safe?
David!
Ow!
Zeruiah!
You wait until we're kicked out
of the kingdom for a reunion?
You're all here?
Well, the
house got a bit crowded
with the soldiers and all.
Get him some food.
You come at me with
sword and spear.
- Ah!
- Ow!
That's not how a sling works.
You'll be dead in
a minute, giant.
Now say your next line!
Hmp!
Hey! Watch it.
How's your tapestry working out?
Oh just, you know, way...
Way worse than I thought!
I don't feel like
I'm being woven,
so much as being stabbed!
Oh I so love you.
Sometimes a thread
is pulled so tight
you think it might snap.
But trust the weaver.
I feel like I snapped
a while ago, Ima.
Then trust him to tie
you back together.
How can you laugh when we
are being hunted by Saul?
Did you not hear what
he did to the priests?
That was my fault.
This is all my fault.
No, David.
I didn't understand at first.
But it's clear our
king has lost his mind.
Look around you.
These people are loyal to you.
It can't be for nothing
that you were anointed.
Abba!
- What did he say?
- David anointed?
- This is crazy!
- What does that mean?
Is it true?
It's true!
The Prophet Samuel
himself came to my house!
You're the next king?
Yes.
- David?
- David? King?
- This is wonderful!
- We could go home!
Does that come with
a whole lot of money?
With you as king, we
will at last be free.
Saul won't give up
without a fight.
Civil war then?
What can we do
against Saul's army?
Saul must pay for
what he's done.
David will save us.
God has chosen David.
He is God's anointed!
He is God's anointed.
He is God's anointed.
God's anointed.
He is God's anointed.
Saul.
What's wrong, sire?
N-nothing.
I just need a moment out
of this wretched sun.
Of course.
David will save us!
Saul must pay for
what he's done!
We'll gather an army.
We'll overthrow Gibeah.
Finally, we'll be free of Saul.
David is the rightful...
We will scour the
area while you rest, sire.
My shadows, these
voices, plaguing me.
They will not leave me.
Anything?
No sign of them, Sire.
My Lord the king.
Why are you hunting me?
Did God not just deliver
you into my hands?
Some urged me to kill you,
but I won't lay a hand on you.
If a Philistine were chasing me
or an Amalekite was hunting
me down, I'd know what to do.
I could, I could defend myself.
But it's you...
My king.
I am not trying to
take the throne.
David I, I.
I
I know, I know, it's okay.
What?
- David, he did it.
- Finally, fresh air.
He's leaving,
we can come out.
- I can go home, thank you.
- Thank you, thank you.
We must celebrate!
Don't.
Eliab.
Aren't you gonna
follow your king?
I made a mistake following Saul.
Show me it's not a
mistake following you.
Apology accepted.
Huh.
He won't stop hunting you.
There is one place I
know he won't follow.
Well, I wouldn't say it's homey.
You sure about this?
Sure that Saul won't
pursue us here at least.
I think I'd rather take
my chances with Saul.
Hmmm...
It is true, your
most high highness.
The Israelites are unraveling.
Saul no longer has his champion.
Marvelous.
Let's go and pay them
a visit, shall we?
David, David!
The Philistines are
marching on Saul!
The largest army I've ever seen!
Ah, Philistine!
Ow! Ow!
Take that!
Zeruiah, wait.
David?
Ow! It's good to know
where you land on
the fight or flight thing.
Sorry.
So what do you think?
I think you've lost your mind.
Ima, Ima, it's me.
Sorry, instinct.
David, what on
Earth are you doing?
You could've given
me a heart attack.
The Philistines are
marching on Saul.
We will infiltrate their army
and turn on them as they attack.
When we deliver this
victory for Saul,
he will know without a
doubt that I am for him.
Everything will be
back the way it was.
The people are divided, David.
Samuel said we'd
be vulnerable if
I'm trying to reunite us.
Is that so wrong?
I will not just
leave Saul to die.
Quit that.
Okay.
That's a big army.
Their numbers don't matter.
We just have to get to King
Achish and his generals
and the army will collapse.
Saul, we heard you
lost your champion.
It's time for a rematch.
A rider approaches.
Where is your father?
Afraid to face us, is he?
He's tired of your talk Achish.
Does it look like
we've come to talk?
I thought we had come to talk.
Well, yes to talk
now, but then battle.
Now I'm with you.
Enough talk.
We haven't come to talk!
We outnumber your
army 10 to one.
Where is the God of Israel now?
Right here, and He
has you doing His will.
What do you mean?
I am not afraid.
If we win, then it
will be by God's hand.
If not, today you are
putting David on the throne.
Either way, you lose.
Get back here, we
are not done talking!
I thought
you hadn't come to talk.
- Come on men.
- What did they say?
They're quaking in their boots.
I'm.
I'm sorry I brought this on you.
I would rather be
here by your side,
than have you face this alone.
Black smoke.
Look, black smoke.
The Amalekites must have
found some unfortunate people.
Isn't that coming from Ziklag?
We have to go back.
Our families.
Oh, this is good, very good.
Did they not wonder why
we abandoned that city?
Anyway, no matter.
Looks like the Amalekites are
taking care of them for us.
No.
Well, come on, charge!
For God and honor!
We shouldn't have left them.
Our families, we
have to go back.
Where are they?
My children.
They've been taken.
Why God, why?
Why?
This
is David's fault!
Our families.
We believed in you!
It wasn't safe.
You had the chance to
kill Saul at the cave.
- Where is God now?
- We shouldn't have
left them alone!
Why did I trust you?
Remember when I told you.
God had big plans for you?
They may have been bigger
than even I thought.
Today you are
putting David on the throne.
Our true battle
is not against flesh and blood,
but in our hearts.
What do you want from me?
I'm
just a shepherd.
A shepherd is
precisely who they need
to lead them back home.
Where are you going?
To bring our people home.
The Amalekites will kill you.
I'm a shepherd, Eliab.
What can I do but
look after my sheep?
And I trust my shepherd
to look after me.
What if he doesn't?
I'd rather take my
chances following the light,
than choose to live in the dark.
Which do you choose, Eliab?
Move.
You are cowards!
Scavengers.
Kings fight, sheep scatter.
We collect.
David will come.
He will rescue us.
The Lord is my light
Told you.
Whom shall I fear
Stronghold of my life
Whom shall I fear
It's David.
- Oh ho, you are in for it now.
- Though the arrows may fly
- Get on your knees.
- By night and by day
I will not be afraid
Where are the others?
He's alone?
You are
foolish to come alone.
Does it look like I'm alone?
My people are right here
and I've come to show
them the way home.
What did he say?
Why won't he fight?
When I fought Goliath,
it wasn't a boy standing
against a giant.
It was a giant standing
against the maker
of heaven and earth.
So stand.
You aren't alone.
- But I'm scared.
- We can't.
I know you're scared,
but I don't see a
bunch of scared people.
I see mighty men and
women....
No!
I see slaves.
No, let me go.
He's my boy, please.
Take me instead.
This can't be happening.
No.
No.
God, please.
No.
Why God?
The only thing
That I want
Is to dwell with the Lord
If we don't win today
He is still my reward
So whatever may come
Whatever we face
I will not be afraid
I will not be afraid
I will not be afraid
I will not be afraid
I will not be afraid
I will not be afraid
I will not be afraid
I will not be afraid
I will not be afraid
I will not be afraid
I will not be afraid
I will not be afraid
I will not be afraid
I will not be afraid
I will not be afraid
I will not be afraid
I will not be afraid
I will not be afraid
Follow the light
Follow the light
Follow the light
Follow the light
Follow the light
Follow the light
Feel the rushing wind as
you're running into the wild
I will not be afraid
Follow the light
Come on!
Follow the light
Stand your ground!
When the shadows come
We won't run from the fight
I will not be...
Shalom, shalom
Peace be with you
wherever you go
Come on and follow the light
My God, you have
not forsaken us now
Follow the light
So whatever may come
Whatever we face
I will not be afraid
Did you see me?
I was like,.
So who's going to Hebron?
I'm not doing it.
Raddai can do it.
I always knew David
had it in him.
I see you
found a sense of humor,
as well as some faith.
Ah, stress weaving again?
David.
Sorry, sorry.
It's just, you're okay.
Again with the ow.
Ah, deal with it.
The rest of the
family, Abba, Zeruiah?
We're all fine.
Hey, watch it.
Tali?
Way to go girl.
David, come!
There are a few other
people who wanna see you.
David, David, David!
Perfect.
We're back...
In your hands.
The Lord is my Shepherd
I have everything I need
I lack nothing at all
He leads me,
beside quiet waters
to a place I can lie down,
and find rest for my soul
He restores and
revives my life
Never leaves my side
Even if I walk
through the valley
Even if I'm lost
in the shadows
I will not fear for I know
You are with me
Surely goodness
and mercy will follow,
follow me wherever I go
I will not fear,
for the Lord is my Shepherd
You are
You are my best friend
Like an eagle, you
renew my strength
For all of my days
You are good
and Your heart is for me
And will guide me
In the path of righteousness
For the honor of Your name
Even if I walk
hrough the valley
Even if I'm lost
in the shadows
I will not fear
For I know You are with me
Surely goodness
and mercy will follow
Follow me wherever I go
I will not fear
For the Lord is my Shepherd
You prepare me a table
With blessings
upon blessings
You fill me up in
power of the spirit
And this I know,
You have always been faithful
You will be forever
And I will dwell
in Your house
Here in Your presence
Even if I walk
through the valley
Even if I'm lost
in the shadow
I will not fear
For You are with me
Surely goodness
and mercy will follow
follow me wherever I go
I will not fear
for the Lord is my Shepherd
Yes, the Lord is my Shepherd
