1 Chronicles 19 8-1 Chronicles 19 19
And when David heard[ of it], he sent Joab, and all the host of the mighty men.And the children of Ammon came out, and put the battle in array before the gate of the city: and the kings that were come[ were] by themselves in the field.Now when Joab saw that the battle was set against him before and behind, he chose out of all the choice of Israel, and put[ them] in array against the Syrians.And the rest of the people he delivered unto the hand of Abishai his brother, and they set[ themselves] in array against the children of Ammon.And he said, If the Syrians be too strong for me, then thou shalt help me: but if the children of Ammon be too strong for thee, then I will help thee.Be of good courage, and let us behave ourselves valiantly for our people, and for the cities of our God: and let the LORD do[ that which is] good in his sight.So Joab and the people that[ were] with him drew nigh before the Syrians unto the battle; and they fled before him.And when the children of Ammon saw that the Syrians were fled, they likewise fled before Abishai his brother, and entered into the city. Then Joab came to Jerusalem.And when the Syrians saw that they were put to the worse before Israel, they sent messengers, and drew forth the Syrians that[ were] beyond the river: and Shophach the captain of the host of Hadarezer[ went] before them.And it was told David; and he gathered all Israel, and passed over Jordan, and came upon them, and set[ the battle] in array against them. So when David had put the battle in array against the Syrians, they fought with him.But the Syrians fled before Israel; and David slew of the Syrians seven thousand[ men which fought in] chariots, and forty thousand footmen, and killed Shophach the captain of the host.And when the servants of Hadarezer saw that they were put to the worse before Israel, they made peace with David, and became his servants: neither would the Syrians help the children of Ammon any more.
2 Samuel 23 8-2 Samuel 23 39
These[ be] the names of the mighty men whom David had: The Tachmonite that sat in the seat, chief among the captains; the same[ was] Adino the Eznite:[ he lift up his spear] against eight hundred, whom he slew at one time.And after him[ was] Eleazar the son of Dodo the Ahohite,[ one] of the three mighty men with David, when they defied the Philistines[ that] were there gathered together to battle, and the men of Israel were gone away:He arose, and smote the Philistines until his hand was weary, and his hand clave unto the sword: and the LORD wrought a great victory that day; and the people returned after him only to spoil.And after him[ was] Shammah the son of Agee the Hararite. And the Philistines were gathered together into a troop, where was a piece of ground full of lentiles: and the people fled from the Philistines.But he stood in the midst of the ground, and defended it, and slew the Philistines: and the LORD wrought a great victory.And three of the thirty chief went down, and came to David in the harvest time unto the cave of Adullam: and the troop of the Philistines pitched in the valley of Rephaim.And David[ was] then in an hold, and the garrison of the Philistines[ was] then[ in] Bethlehem.And David longed, and said, Oh that one would give me drink of the water of the well of Bethlehem, which[ is] by the gate!And the three mighty men brake through the host of the Philistines, and drew water out of the well of Bethlehem, that[ was] by the gate, and took[ it], and brought[ it] to David: nevertheless he would not drink thereof, but poured it out unto the LORD.And he said, Be it far from me, O LORD, that I should do this:[ is not this] the blood of the men that went in jeopardy of their lives? therefore he would not drink it. These things did these three mighty men.And Abishai, the brother of Joab, the son of Zeruiah, was chief among three. And he lifted up his spear against three hundred,[ and] slew[ them], and had the name among three.Was he not most honourable of three? therefore he was their captain: howbeit he attained not unto the[ first] three.And Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, the son of a valiant man, of Kabzeel, who had done many acts, he slew two lionlike men of Moab: he went down also and slew a lion in the midst of a pit in time of snow:And he slew an Egyptian, a goodly man: and the Egyptian had a spear in his hand; but he went down to him with a staff, and plucked the spear out of the Egyptian’s hand, and slew him with his own spear.These[ things] did Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and had the name among three mighty men.He was more honourable than the thirty, but he attained not to the[ first] three. And David set him over his guard.Asahel the brother of Joab[ was] one of the thirty; Elhanan the son of Dodo of Bethlehem,Shammah the Harodite, Elika the Harodite,Helez the Paltite, Ira the son of Ikkesh the Tekoite,Abiezer the Anethothite, Mebunnai the Hushathite,Zalmon the Ahohite, Maharai the Netophathite,Heleb the son of Baanah, a Netophathite, Ittai the son of Ribai out of Gibeah of the children of Benjamin,Benaiah the Pirathonite, Hiddai of the brooks of Gaash,Abialbon the Arbathite, Azmaveth the Barhumite,Eliahba the Shaalbonite, of the sons of Jashen, Jonathan,Shammah the Hararite, Ahiam the son of Sharar the Hararite,Eliphelet the son of Ahasbai, the son of the Maachathite, Eliam the son of Ahithophel the Gilonite,Hezrai the Carmelite, Paarai the Arbite,Igal the son of Nathan of Zobah, Bani the Gadite,Zelek the Ammonite, Naharai the Beerothite, armourbearer to Joab the son of Zeruiah,Ira an Ithrite, Gareb an Ithrite,Uriah the Hittite: thirty and seven in all.
