2 Samuel 21:16-18

16Then Ishbi-benob, who was 1among the descendants of the 2giant, the weight of whose spear was 3three hundred shekels of bronze in weight, 4had strapped on a new sword, and he 5intended to kill David. 17But 6Abishai the son of Zeruiah helped him, and struck the Philistine and killed him. Then David’s men swore to him, saying, “7You shall not go out again with us to battle, so that you do not extinguish 8the lamp of Israel.”

189Now it came about after this that there was war again with the Philistines at Gob; then 10Sibbecai the Hushathite struck and killed Saph, who was among the descendants of the 11giant.
