2 Samuel 23:20-23

20Then 1Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, the son of a valiant man of 2Kabzeel, who had done mighty deeds, 3killed the 4two sons of Ariel of Moab. He also went down and killed a lion in the middle of a pit on a snowy day. 21He 5killed an Egyptian, 6an impressive man. Now the Egyptian had a spear in his hand, but he went down to him with a club and snatched the spear from the Egyptian’s hand and killed him with his own spear. 22These things 7Benaiah the son of Jehoiada did, and had a name as well as the three mighty men. 23He was honored among the thirty, but he did not attain to the three. And David appointed him over his guard.
