2 Samuel 21:15-22
15Now when 1the PhilistinesH6430 were at warH4421 with IsraelH3478 againH5750, DavidH1732 wentH3381 downH3381, and his servantsH5650 with him; and when they foughtH3898 againstH854 the PhilistinesH6430, DavidH1732 becameH5888 wearyH5888. 16Then Ishbi-benobH3430, whoH834 was 2among the descendantsH3211 of the 3giantH7498, the weightH4948 of whose spearH7013 was 4threeH7969 hundredH3967 shekels of bronzeH5178 in weightH4948, 5had strappedH2296 onH2296 a newH2319 sword, and he 6intendedH559 to killH5221 DavidH1732. 17But 7AbishaiH52 the sonH1121 of ZeruiahH6870 helpedH5826 him, and struckH5221 the PhilistineH6430 and killedH4191 him. ThenH227 David’sH1732 menH376 sworeH7650 to him, sayingH559, “8You shall not goH3318 outH3318 againH5750 with us to battleH4421, so that you do not extinguishH3518 9the lampH5216 of IsraelH3478.”
1810Now it cameH1961 aboutH1961 afterH310 thisH3651 that there was warH4421 againH5750 with the PhilistinesH6430 at GobH1359; thenH227 11SibbecaiH5444 the HushathiteH2843 struckH5221 andH5221 killedH5221 SaphH5593, whoH834 was among the descendantsH3211 of the 12giantH7498. 19And there was warH4421 with the PhilistinesH6430 againH5750 at GobH1359, and ElhananH445 the sonH1121 of Jaare-oregimH3296 the BethlehemiteH1022 13killedH5221 14GoliathH1555 the GittiteH1663, 15the shaftH6086 of whose spearH2595 was like a weaver’sH707 beamH4500. 20And there was warH4421 at GathH1661 againH5750, where there was a manH376 of great statureH4060 who had sixH8337 fingersH676 on each handH3027 and sixH8337 toesH676 on each footH7272, twenty-fourH6242H702 in numberH4557; and he alsoH1571 had been bornH3205 16to the 17giantH7498. 21When he defiedH2778 IsraelH3478, JonathanH3083 the sonH1121 of ShimeiH8096, David’sH1732 brotherH251, struckH5221 andH5221 killedH5221 him. 2218TheseH428 fourH702 were bornH3205 to the 19giantH7498 at GathH1661, and they fellH5307 by the handH3027 of DavidH1732 and by the handH3027 of his servantsH5650.
