1 Chronicles 11:11-20

11And this is the numberH4557 of the mightyH1368 menH1368 whomH834 DavidH1732 had: JashobeamH3434, the sonH1121 of a HachmoniteH2453, the chiefH7218 of the thirtyH7970; he liftedH5782 upH5921 his spearH2595 againstH5921 threeH7969 hundredH3967 and slew them at one time.

12And afterH310 him was EleazarH499 the sonH1121 of DodoH1734, the AhohiteH266, who was one of the threeH7969 mightyH1368 menH1368.

13He was with DavidH1732 at PasdammimH6450, and there the PhilistinesH6430 were gatheredH622 togetherH622 to battleH4421, whereH8033 was a plotH2513 of groundH7704 fullH4392 of barleyH8184; and the peopleH5971 fledH5127 from beforeH6440 the PhilistinesH6430.

14And they stoodH3320 in the midstH8432 of the plotH2513, and defendedH5337 it, and slewH5221 the PhilistinesH6430; and the LORDH3068 savedH3467 them by a greatH1419 victoryH8668.

15And threeH7969 of the thirtyH7970 chiefH7218 wentH3381 downH3381 to the rockH6697 to DavidH1732, intoH413 the caveH4631 of AdullamH5725; and the hostH4264 of the PhilistinesH6430 were encampedH2583 in the valleyH6010 of RephaimH7497.

16And DavidH1732 was then in the hold, and the garrisonH5333 of the PhilistinesH6430 was then in Beth-lehem.

17And DavidH1732 longedH183, and saidH559, OhH4310 that one would giveH8248 meH8248 waterH4325 to drinkH8248 of the wellH834 of Beth-lehem, whichH834 is by the gateH8179!

18And the threeH7969 brake throughH935 the hostH4264 of the PhilistinesH6430, and drewH7579 waterH4325 outH413 of the wellH834 of Beth-lehem, that was by the gateH8179, and tookH5375 it, and broughtH935 it to DavidH1732: but DavidH1732 would notH3808 drinkH8354 thereof, but poured it outH413 unto the LORDH3068,

19and saidH559, My GodH430 forbidH2486 it meH5315, that I should doH6213 this: shall I drinkH8354 the bloodH1818 of theseH428 menH376 that have putH935 their livesH5315 in jeopardy? for with the jeopardy of their livesH5315 they broughtH935 it. Therefore he would notH3808 drinkH8354 it. TheseH428 things didH6213 the threeH7969 mightyH1368 menH376.

20And AbishaiH52, the brotherH251 of JoabH3097, he was chiefH7218 of the threeH7969: for he liftedH5782 upH5921 his spearH2595 againstH5921 threeH7969 hundredH3967 and slew them, and had a nameH8034 among the threeH7969.
