He (Talut) said: "Surely, Allah has chosen him [619] over you and has increased him [620] abundantly in knowledge and body. And Allah bestows His kingdom to whom He wills. And Allah is All-Encompassing, All-Knowing."

Whoso drinks water from it is not of me [625], and whoso does not drink of it is mine [626], except he who takes a sip with his hand [627]. Yet, all drank of it except a few of them [628]. When he (Talut) and the believers with him [629] crossed the stream, they said: "We have no power [630] against Jalut (Goliath) and his armies." Those who were sure to meet [631] Allah said: "That often a small party has triumphed over a large party by Allah's Command [632]. And, verily, Allah is with the steadfast (patient) [633]."
