Exegesis
The coordinated hifil perfects vehikkitiv {וְהִכִּתִ֖יו | wə-ḥik-kî-tîw} ‘and I struck him’ and vehitsalti {וְהִצַּ֣לְתִּי | wə-ḥiṣ-ṣal-tî} ‘and I rescued’, the latter marked for source by mipiv {מִפִּיו | mi-ppi-w}, intensify the narrative.
In context — 1 Samuel 17:35
I went out in pursuit, struck it, and pulled it free from its jaws. When it rose against me, I grasped its beard , struck it, and killed it.
