1 Samuel 17:4

Then a champion named Goliath, who was from Gath, came out from the Philistine camp. He was six cubits and a span in height,

Note Goliath was approximately 9 feet 9 inches or 297 centimeters tall; LXX, DSS, and Josephus four cubits and a span in height (approximately 6 feet 9 inches or 206 centimeters tall).

And there went out a champion out of the camp of the Philistines, named Goliath, of Gath, whose height was six cubits and a span.

A champion out of the camp of the Philistines named Goliath of Gath, whose height was six cubits and a span went out.

Note A cubit is the length from the tip of the middle finger to the elbow on a man’s arm, or about 18 inches or 46 centimeters. A span is the length from the tip of a man’s thumb to the tip of his little finger when his hand is stretched out (about half a cubit, or 9 inches, or 22.8 cm.) Therefore, Goliath was about 9 feet and 9 inches or 2.97 meters tall.

And there went out a champion out of the camp of the Philistines, named Goliath, of Gath, whose height was six cubits and a span.
