en ik liep hem na en sloeg hem, en redde het uit zijnen mond; en toen hij zich tegen mij stelde, greep ik hem bij zijnen baard en sloeg hem en doodde hem.
En ik ging uit hem na, en ik sloeg hem, en redde het uit zijn mond; toen hij tegen mij opstond, zo vatte ik hem bij zijn baard, en sloeg hem, en doodde hem.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And I went out after him,.... Whether a lion or a bear; but mention after being made of his beard, a lion rather is meant:
and smote him; with his fist, or rather with his shepherd's staff:
and delivered [it] out of his mouth; snatched it out from thence, or obliged him to drop it, by beating him:
and when he arose against me; after he had let go the lamb, threatening to tear him in pieces for attempting to disturb him in his prey, and take it away from him;
I caught [him] by his beard; such as lions have; hence a lion is often called in Homer g λις ηευγενειος, the well-bearded lion. Kimchi thinks the beard with the nether jaw is meant, which David caught hold on:
and smote him, and slew him; tore him to pieces, as Samson did, Judges 14:5, or slew him with some weapon in his hand.
g Iliad. 17. ver. 109. & Iliad. 18. ver. 318.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
His beard - Put here for his throat, or under jaw; neither lion nor bear has a beard properly speaking.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 35. The slaying of the lion and the bear mentioned here, must have taken place at two different times; perhaps the verse should be read thus: I went out after him, (the lion.) and smote him, &c. And when he (the bear) rose up against me, I caught him by the beard and slew him.
