2 Samuel 23:18-21
18Now 1AbishaiH52, the brotherH251 of JoabH3097, the sonH1121 of ZeruiahH6870, was 2chiefH7218 of the 3thirtyH7992. And he swungH5782 his spearH2595 againstH5921 threeH7969 hundredH3967 4and killedH2491 them, and had a nameH8034 5as well as the threeH7969. 19He was the mostH3513 honoredH3513 amongH4480 the thirtyH7969, so he becameH1961 their commanderH8269; however, he did not attainH935 to the reputation of the threeH7969.
20Then 6BenaiahH1141 the sonH1121 of JehoiadaH3077, the sonH1121 of a valiantH2428 manH376 of 7KabzeelH6909, who had done greatH7227 deedsH6467, 8killedH5221 the 9twoH8147 sons of ArielH739 of MoabH4124. He also wentH3381 downH3381 and killedH5221 a lionH743 in the middleH8432 of a pitH877 on a snowyH7950 dayH3117. 21And he 10killedH5221 an EgyptianH4713, 11an impressiveH4758 manH376. Now the EgyptianH4713 had a spearH2595 in his handH3027, but he wentH3381 downH3381 to him with a clubH7626 and snatchedH1497 the spearH2595 from the Egyptian’sH4713 handH3027, and killedH2026 him with his own spearH2595.
