2 Samuel 23:18-23

18Abishai son of Zeruiah, the brother of Joab, was the leader of the Thirty. He once used his spear to kill 300 enemy warriors in a single battle. It was by such feats that he became as famous as the Three.

19Abishai was the most famous of the Thirty and was their commander, though he was not one of the Three.

20There was also Benaiah son of Jehoiada, a valiant warrior from Kabzeel. He did many heroic deeds, which included killing two champions of Moab. Another time, on a snowy day, he chased a lion down into a pit and killed it.

21Once, armed only with a club, he killed an imposing Egyptian warrior who was armed with a spear. Benaiah wrenched the spear from the Egyptian’s hand and killed him with it.

22Deeds like these made Benaiah as famous as the Three mightiest warriors.

23He was more honored than the other members of the Thirty, though he was not one of the Three. And David made him captain of his bodyguard.
