Bible. Samuel, 2nd
10:023:010 He arose, and smote the Philistines until his hand was weary,
and his hand clave unto the sword: and the LORD wrought a
great victory that day; and the people returned after him only
to spoil.
10:023:011 And after him was Shammah the son of Agee the Hararite. And
the Philistines were gathered together into a troop, where was
a piece of ground full of lentiles: and the people fled from
the Philistines.
10:023:012 But he stood in the midst of the ground, and defended it, and
slew the Philistines: and the LORD wrought a great victory.
10:023:013 And three of the thirty chief went down, and came to David in
the harvest time unto the cave of Adullam: and the troop of
the Philistines pitched in the valley of Rephaim.
10:023:014 And David was then in an hold, and the garrison of the
Philistines was then in Bethlehem.
10:023:015 And David longed, and said, Oh that one would give me drink of
the water of the well of Bethlehem, which is by the gate!
10:023:016 And the three mighty men brake through the host of the
Philistines, and drew water out of the well of Bethlehem, that
was by the gate, and took it, and brought it to David:
nevertheless he would not drink thereof, but poured it out
unto the LORD.
10:023:017 And he said, Be it far from me, O LORD, that I should do this:
is not this the blood of the men that went in jeopardy of
their lives? therefore he would not drink it. These things did
these three mighty men.
10:023:018 And Abishai, the brother of Joab, the son of Zeruiah, was
chief among three. And he lifted up his spear against three
hundred, and slew them, and had the name among three.
10:023:019 Was he not most honourable of three? therefore he was their
captain: howbeit he attained not unto the first three.
10:023:020 And Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, the son of a valiant man, of
Kabzeel, who had done many acts, he slew two lionlike men of
Moab: he went down also and slew a lion in the midst of a pit
in time of snow:
10:023:021 And he slew an Egyptian, a goodly man: and the Egyptian had a
spear in his hand; but he went down to him with a staff, and
plucked the spear out of the Egyptian's hand, and slew him
with his own spear.
10:023:022 These things did Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and had the name
among three mighty men.
10:023:023 He was more honourable than the thirty, but he attained not to
the first three. And David set him over his guard.
10:023:024 Asahel the brother of Joab was one of the thirty; Elhanan the
son of Dodo of Bethlehem,
10:023:025 Shammah the Harodite, Elika the Harodite,
10:023:026 Helez the Paltite, Ira the son of Ikkesh the Tekoite,
