22And BenaiahH1141 sonH1121 of JehoiadaH3077 was a manH1121H376 of valorH2428 fromH4480 KabzeelH6909, a man of manyH7227 exploitsH6467. He struck downH5221 twoH8147 championsH739 of MoabH4124,1 and on a snowyH7950 dayH3117 heH1931 went downH3381 intoH8432 a pitH953 and killedH5221 a lionH738. 23HeH1931 also struck downH5221 an EgyptianH4713, a hugeH376 manH4060 fiveH2568 cubitsH520 tall.2 Although the EgyptianH4713 had a spearH2595 like a weaver’sH707 beamH4500 in his handH3027, Benaiah went againstH3381 himH413 with a clubH7626, snatchedH1497 the spearH2595 fromH4713 his handH3027, and killedH2026 the Egyptian with his own spearH2595. 24TheseH428 were the exploitsH6213 of BenaiahH1141 sonH1121 of JehoiadaH3077, who won a nameH8034 along with the threeH7969 mighty menH1368. 25He was most honoredH3513 amongH4480 the ThirtyH7970H2005, but heH1931 did notH3808 becomeH935 one ofH413 the ThreeH7969.
