1 Chronicles 11:22-25

221Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, the son of a valiant man of Kabzeel, mighty in deeds, struck down the 2two sons of Ariel of Moab. He also went down and 3killed a lion inside a pit on a snowy day. 23He 4killed an Egyptian, a man of great stature five 5cubits tall. Now in the Egyptian’s hand was 6a spear like a weaver’s beam, but he went down to him with a club and snatched the spear from the Egyptian’s hand and 7killed him with his own spear. 24These things Benaiah the son of Jehoiada did, and had a name as well as the three mighty men. 25Behold, he was honored among the thirty, but he did not attain to the three; and David appointed him over his guard.
