2 Samuel 21:16-19
16Then Ishbi-benob, who was 1among the descendants of the 2giant, the weight of whose spear was three hundred shekels of bronze in weight, 3was girded with a new sword, and he 4intended to kill David. 17But 5Abishai the son of Zeruiah helped him, and struck the Philistine and killed him. Then the men of David swore to him, saying, “6You shall not go out again with us to battle, so that you do not extinguish 7the lamp of Israel.”
188Now it came about after this that there was war again with the Philistines at Gob; then 9Sibbecai the Hushathite struck down Saph, who was among the descendants of the 10giant. 19There was war with the Philistines again at Gob, and Elhanan the son of Jaare-oregim the Bethlehemite 11killed 12Goliath the Gittite, 13the shaft of whose spear was like a weaver’s beam.
