1 Chronicles 11:15-19

15Now three of the thirty chief men went down to the rock to David, into the cave of Adullam, while 1the army of the Philistines was camping in the Valley of Rephaim. 16David was then in the stronghold, while 2the garrison of the Philistines was then in Bethlehem. 17And David had a craving and said, “Oh that someone would give me water to drink from the well of Bethlehem, which is by the gate!” 18So the three broke through the camp of the Philistines and drew water from the well of Bethlehem which was by the gate, and took it and brought it to David; however, David would not drink it, but poured it out to the Lord; 19and he said, “Far be it from me before my God that I would do this. Shall I drink the blood of these men who went 3at the risk of their lives? For they brought it at the risk of their lives.” Therefore he would not drink it. The three mighty men did these things.
