\"Everything\'s Worse With Bears\" clean-up


-->''[[Literature/TheBible 1 Samuel 17: 34-37]]'' "But David said to Saul, “Your servant has been keeping his father’s sheep. When a [[KingOfBeasts lion]] or a [[EverythingsWorseWithBears bear]] came and carried off a sheep from the flock, I went after it, [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown struck it]] and rescued the sheep from its mouth. When it turned on me, I seized it by its hair, struck it and killed it. Your servant has killed both the lion and the bear; this uncircumcised Philistine will be like one of them, because he has defied the armies of the living God. The LORD who rescued me from the paw of the lion and the paw of the bear will rescue me from the hand of this Philistine.”"
