Lithuanian Bible (Karaliaus Jokūbo Versija Lietuviškai 2012 Edition) 2012 - KJV
Ir jis užmušė egiptietį, aukštaūgį vyrą, penkių uolekčių ūgio; egiptiečio rankoje buvo ietis, panaši į audėjo riestuvą; o jis nuėjo žemyn pas jį su lazda, išplėšė ietį iš egiptiečio rankos ir nužudė jį jo paties ietimi.

Historical Background
The Book of 1 Chronicles was written by unknown authors, likely during the Babylonian exile or shortly after. It was intended for a Jewish audience to remind them of their history and the continuity of God's promises.
Living It Out Today
In modern terms, this can be seen as a reminder to support those we believe God is calling to lead in various roles, whether in church, community, or other settings. It’s about being ready to stand with those who are advancing God’s purposes.
