9 After him Eleazar the son of Dodo the son of Ahocha, of the three valiant men who were with David, when they rebuked the Philistines who were gathered together for war;

10 And the Israelites went out against them, and he stood and smote the Philistines, till his hand was weary, and cleaved to the sword. And the Lord granted that day a great victory, and the people followed him only to rob the slain.

11 And after him was Shammah the son of Ageh, a Hararite. And it came to pass, when the Philistines were gathered together to Phiriah, where there was a field of lentils, and the people fled from the Philistines;

12 And he stood in the midst of the field, and kept it, and smote the Philistines. And then the Lord granted a great victory.

13 And these three chief of the thirty chiefs went and went in at harvest time to David in the cave of Adullam, while the multitudes of the Philistines were standing in the valley of Rephaim.

14 David was then in a fortified place, and the Philistines were in Bethlehem.

15 And David was thirsty, and said, "Who shall give me water to drink out of the well of Bethlehem which is by the gate?"

16 Then these three valiant men broke through the camp of the Philistines, and drew water out of the well of Bethlehem, which is by the gate, and took it and brought it to David. But he would not drink it, and poured it out to the glory of the Lord;

17 And he said, 'The Lord preserve me, that I may do this!' Is this not the blood of people who walked at the risk of their own lives? And he did not want to drink it. That's what these three brave men did!

18 And Abishai the brother of Joab, the son of Zeruin, was chief of the three; and he slew three hundred men with his spear, and was in glory with the three.

19 Of the three he was the noblest, and was the ruler, but he was not equal to those three.

20 Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, a man of valiance, great in works, of Kabzeel; he smote the two sons of Ariel of Moab; and he went down and killed the lion in the pit in the snowy season;

21 And he slew a certain Egyptian, a man of renown; and the Egyptian had a spear in his hand, and he went to him with a stick, and took the spear out of the Egyptian's hand, and slew him with his own spear.

22 And this is what Benaiah the son of Jehoiada did, and he was in glory with three mighty men;
