13:011:015 Now three of the thirty captains went down to the rock to
           David, into the cave of Adullam; and the host of the
           Philistines encamped in the valley of Rephaim.

13:011:016 And David was then in the hold, and the Philistines’ garrison
           was then at Bethlehem.

13:011:017 And David longed, and said, Oh that one would give me drink of
           the water of the well of Bethlehem, that is at the gate!

13:011:018 And the three 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:  but David would not
           drink of it, but poured it out to the lord.

13:011:019 And said, My God forbid it me, that I should do this thing: 
           shall I drink the blood of these men that have put their lives
           in jeopardy? for with the jeopardy of their lives they brought
           it.  Therefore he would not drink it.  These things did these
           three mightiest.

13:011:020 And Abishai the brother of Joab, he was chief of the three: 
           for lifting up his spear against three hundred, he slew them,
           and had a name among the three.

13:011:021 Of the three, he was more honourable than the two; for he was
           their captain:  howbeit he attained not to the first three.

13:011:022 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:  also he went down and slew a lion in a pit in a snowy
           day.

13:011:023 And he slew an Egyptian, a man of great stature, five cubits
           high; and in the Egyptian’s hand was a spear like a weaver’s
           beam; and 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.

13:011:024 These things did Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and had the name
           among the three mighties.

13:011:025 Behold, he was honourable among the thirty, but attained not
           to the first three:  and David set him over his guard.

13:011:026 Also the valiant men of the armies were, Asahel the brother of
           Joab, Elhanan the son of Dodo of Bethlehem,

13:011:027 Shammoth the Harorite, Helez the Pelonite,

13:011:028 Ira the son of Ikkesh the Tekoite, Abiezer the Antothite,

13:011:029 Sibbecai the Hushathite, Ilai the Ahohite,

13:011:030 Maharai the Netophathite, Heled the son of Baanah the
           Netophathite,

13:011:031 Ithai the son of Ribai of Gibeah, that pertained to the
           children of Benjamin, Benaiah the Pirathonite,

13:011:032 Hurai of the brooks of Gaash, Abiel the Arbathite,
