2 Samuel 21:18-22

18Some time laterH310H3651H1961 at GobH1359, there wasH1961 anotherH5750 battleH4421 withH5973 the PhilistinesH6430. At that timeH227 SibbecaiH5444 the HushathiteH2843 killedH5221 SaphH5593,1 aH834 descendantH3211 of RaphaH7497.

19Once againH5750 there wasH1961 a battleH4421 withH5973 the PhilistinesH6430 at GobH1359, and ElhananH445 sonH1121 of JairH32962 the BethlehemiteH1022 killedH5221 the brother of GoliathH15553 the GittiteH1663, the shaftH6086 of whose spearH2595 was like a weaver’sH707 beamH4500.

20And there wasH1961 alsoH5750 a battleH4421 at GathH1661, where there was a manH376 of great statureH4060 withH1961 sixH8337 fingersH676 on each handH3027 and sixH8337 toesH676 on each footH7272—twenty-fourH6242H702 in allH4557. HeH1931 tooH1571 was descendedH3205 from RaphaH7497, 21and when he tauntedH2778 IsraelH3478, JonathanH3083 the sonH1121 of David’sH1732 brotherH251 ShimeiH80964 killed himH5221.

22

So theseH428 fourH702 descendantsH3205 of RaphaH7497 in GathH1661 fellH5307 at the handsH3027 of DavidH1732H3027 and his servantsH5650.
