11:10

These also [are] the chief
<07218>

of the mighty men
<01368>

whom David
<01732>

had, who strengthened
<02388> (8693)

themselves with him in his kingdom
<04438>_,

[and] with all Israel
<03478>_,

to make him king
<04427> (8687)_,

according to the word
<01697>

of the LORD
<03068>

concerning Israel
<03478>_.

{strengthened...: or, held strongly with him}

11:11

And this [is] the number
<04557>

of the mighty men
<01368>

whom David
<01732>

had; Jashobeam
<03434>_,

an Hachmonite
<02453>_,

the chief
<07218>

of the captains
<07991> (8675) <07970>_:

<05782> (8790)

his spear
<02595>

against three
<07969>

hundred
<03967>

slain
<02491>

[by him] at one
<0259>

time
<06471>_.

{an Hachmonite: or, son of Hachmoni}

11:12

And after
<0310>

him [was] Eleazar
<0499>

the son
<01121>

of Dodo
<01734>_,

the Ahohite
<0266>_,

who [was one] of the three
<07969>

mighties
<01368>_.

11:13

He was with David
<01732>

at Pasdammim
<06450>_,

and there the Philistines
<06430>

were gathered together
<0622> (8738)

to battle
<04421>_,

where was a parcel
<02513>

of ground
<07704>

full
<04392>

of barley
<08184>_;

and the people
<05971>

fled
<05127> (8804)

from before
<06440>

the Philistines
<06430>_.

{Pasdammim: also called, Ephesdammim}

11:14

And they set
<03320> (8691)

themselves in the midst
<08432>

of [that] parcel
<02513>_,

and delivered
<05337> (8686)

it, and slew
<05221> (8686)

the Philistines
<06430>_;

and the LORD
<03068>

saved
<03467> (8686)

[them] by a great
<01419>

deliverance
<08668>_.

{set...: or, stood} {deliverance: or, salvation}

11:15

Now three
<07969>

of the thirty
<07970>

captains
<07218>

went down
<03381> (8799)

to the rock
<06697>

to David
<01732>_,

into the cave
<04631>

of Adullam
<05725>_;

and the host
<04264>

of the Philistines
<06430>

encamped
<02583> (8802)

in the valley
<06010>

of Rephaim
<07497>_.

{three...: or, three captains over the thirty}

11:16

And David
<01732>

[was] then in the hold
<04686>_,

and the Philistines
<06430>_'

garrison
<05333>

[was] then at Bethlehem
<01035>_.

11:17

And David
<01732>

longed
<0183> (8691)_,

and said
<0559> (8799)_,

Oh that one would give me drink
<08248> (8686)

of the water
<04325>

of the well
<0953>

of Bethlehem
<01035>_,

that [is] at the gate
<08179>_!

11:18

And the three
<07969>

brake through
<01234> (8799)

the host
<04264>

of the Philistines
<06430>_,

and drew
<07579> (8799)

water
<04325>

out of the well
<0953>

of Bethlehem
<01035>_,

that [was] by the gate
<08179>_,

and took
<05375> (8799)

[it], and brought
<0935> (8686)

[it] to David
<01732>_:

but David
<01732>

would
<014> (8804)

not drink
<08354> (8800)

[of] it, but poured it out
<05258> (8762)

to the LORD
<03068>_,

11:19

And said
<0559> (8799)_,

My God
<0430>

forbid
<02486>

it me, that I should do
<06213> (8800)

this thing
<02063>_:

shall I drink
<08354> (8799)

the blood
<01818>

of these men
<0582>

that have put their lives in jeopardy
<05315>_?

for with [the jeopardy of] their lives
<05315>

they brought
<0935> (8689)

it. Therefore he would
<014> (8804)

not drink
<08354> (8800)

it. These things did
<06213> (8804)

these three
<07969>

mightiest
<01368>_.

{that have...: Heb. with their lives?}

11:20

<052>

the brother
<0251>

<07969>_:

for lifting up
<05782> (8790)

his spear
<02595>

against three
<07969>

hundred
<03967>_,

he slew
<02491>

[them], and had a name
<08034>

among the three
<07969>_.

11:21

Of the three
<07969>_,

he was more honourable
<03513> (8737)

than the two
<08147>_;

for he was their captain
<08269>_:

howbeit he attained
<0935> (8804)

not to the [first] three
<07969>_.

11:22

Benaiah
<01141>

the son
<01121>

of Jehoiada
<03077>_,

the son
<01121>

of a valiant
<02428>

man
<0376>

of Kabzeel
<06909>_,

who had done many
<07227>

acts
<06467>_;

he slew
<05221> (8689)

two
<08147>

lionlike men
<0739>

of Moab
<04124>_:

also he went down
<03381> (8804)

and slew
<05221> (8689)

a lion
<0738>

in
<08432>

a pit
<0953>

in a snowy
<07950>

day
<03117>_.

{who had...: Heb. great of deeds}

11:23

And he slew
<05221> (8689)

an Egyptian
<04713>_,

a man
<0376>

of [great] stature
<04060>_,

five
<02568>

cubits
<0520>

high; and in the Egyptian's
<04713>

hand
<03027>

[was] a spear
<02595>

like a weaver's
<0707> (8802)

beam
<04500>_;

and he went down
<03381> (8799)

to him with a staff
<07626>_,

and plucked
<01497> (8799)

the spear
<02595>

out of the Egyptian's
<04713>

hand
<03027>_,

and slew
<02026> (8799)

him with his own spear
<02595>_.

{great...: Heb. measure}

11:24

These [things] did
<06213> (8804)

11:25

Behold
<02009>_,

he was honourable
<03513> (8737)

among the thirty
<07970>_,

but attained
<0935> (8804)

not to the [first] three
<07969>_:

<01732>

went out
<03318> (8799)

to meet
<06440>

them, and answered
<06030> (8799)

peaceably
<07965>

unto me to help
<05826> (8800)

me, mine heart

of the captains

of Jesse
<03448>_:

peace
<07965>_,

peace
<07965>

[be] unto thee, and peace
<07965>

[be] to thine helpers
<05826> (8802)_;

for thy God
<0430>

helpeth
<05826> (8804)

thee. Then David
<01732>

received
<06901> (8762)
