Da ging ich aus, ihm nach, und schlug ihn und rettete es aus seinem Rachen. Und als er sich wider mich erhob, ergriff ich ihn bei seinem Bart und schlug ihn und tötete ihn.
so lief ich ihm nach und schlug ihn und entriß es seinem Rachen; und erhob er sich wider mich, so ergriff ich ihn bei dem Barte und schlug ihn und tötete ihn.

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 Î»Î¹Ï Î·ÎµÏ Î³ÎµÎ½ÎµÎ¹Î¿Ï, 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.
