20And AbishaiH52 the brotherH251 of JoabH3097, he was chiefH7218 of the threeH7969: for lifting upH5782 his spearH2595 against threeH7969 hundredH3967, he slewH2491 them, and had a nameH8034 among the threeH7969. 21Of the threeH7969, he was more honourableH3513 than the twoH8147; for he was their captainH8269: howbeit he attainedH935 not to the first threeH7969. 22BenaiahH1141 the sonH1121 of JehoiadaH3077, the sonH1121 of a valiantH2428 manH376 of KabzeelH6909, who had done manyH7227 actsH6467; he slewH5221 twoH8147 lionlike menH739 of MoabH4124: also he went downH3381 and slewH5221 a lionH738 inH8432 a pitH953 in a snowyH7950 dayH3117.1 23And he slewH5221 an EgyptianH4713, a manH376 of great statureH4060, fiveH2568 cubitsH520 high; and in the Egyptian’sH4713 handH3027 was a spearH2595 like a weaver’sH707 beamH4500; and he went downH3381 to him with a staffH7626, and pluckedH1497 the spearH2595 out of the Egyptian’sH4713 handH3027, and slewH2026 him with his own spearH2595.2 24These things didH6213 BenaiahH1141 the sonH1121 of JehoiadaH3077, and had the nameH8034 among the threeH7969 mightiesH1368. 25BeholdH2009, he was honourableH3513 among the thirtyH7970, but attainedH935 not to the first threeH7969: and DavidH1732 setH7760 him over his guardH4928.
