  • 2 Sam 23:8-9 : 8 These are the names of David’s mighty warriors: Josheb-Basshebeth, a Tahkemonite, was chief of the captains. He wielded his spear against eight hundred men, whom he killed in one encounter. 9 Next to him was Eleazar son of Dodai the Ahohite. As one of the three mighty warriors, he was with David when they taunted the Philistines who had gathered there for battle. Then the men of Israel retreated, 10 but Eleazar stood his ground and struck down the Philistines until his hand grew tired and froze to the sword. The LORD gave a great victory that day. The troops returned to him only to strip the dead. 11 Next to him was Shammah son of Agee the Hararite. When the Philistines banded together at a place where there was a field full of lentils, Israel's troops fled from them. 12 But Shammah took his stand in the middle of the field. He defended it and struck down the Philistines, and the LORD brought about a great victory. 13 During harvest time, three of the thirty chief men went down to David at the cave of Adullam while a band of Philistines was encamped in the Valley of Rephaim. 14 At that time, David was in the stronghold, and the Philistine garrison was at Bethlehem. 15 David longed for water and said, 'Oh, that someone would give me water to drink from the well near the gate of Bethlehem!' 16 So the three mighty men broke through the Philistine camp, drew water from the well near the gate of Bethlehem, and brought it back to David. But he refused to drink it; instead, he poured it out to the LORD. 17 He said, 'Far be it from me, LORD, to do this! Is this not the blood of the men who risked their lives?' So he refused to drink it. These were the exploits of the three mighty warriors. 18 Abishai, the brother of Joab, son of Zeruiah, was chief of the Three. He raised his spear against three hundred men, whom he killed, and he became as famous as the Three. 19 Was he not held in greater honor than the Three? He became their commander, even though he was not included among them. 20 Benaiah son of Jehoiada, a valiant fighter from Kabzeel, performed great exploits. He struck down Moab’s two mightiest warriors. He also went down into a pit on a snowy day and killed a lion. 21 And he struck down a huge Egyptian, although the Egyptian had a spear in his hand. Benaiah went against him with a club, snatched the spear from the Egyptian’s hand, and killed him with his own spear. 22 These were the exploits of Benaiah son of Jehoiada, who gained a name among the three mighty warriors. 23 He was more honored than the Thirty, but he did not attain to the rank of the Three. And David put him in charge of his guard. 24 Asahel, the brother of Joab, was among the Thirty; Elhanan son of Dodo from Bethlehem, 25 Shammah the Harodite, Elika the Harodite, 26 Helez the Paltite, Ira son of Ikkesh from Tekoa, 27 Abiezer from Anathoth, Mebunnai the Hushathite, 28 Zalmon the Ahohite, Maharai the Netophathite, 29 Heled son of Baanah the Netophathite, Ithai son of Ribai from Gibeah in Benjamin, 30 Benaiah the Pirathonite, Hiddai from the valleys of Gaash, 31 Abi-Albon the Arbathite, Azmaveth the Barhumite, 32 Eliahba the Shaalbonite, the sons of Jashen, Jonathan, 33 Shammah the Hararite, Ahiam son of Sharar the Hararite, 34 Eliphelet son of Ahasbai the Maacathite, Eliam son of Ahithophel the Gilonite, 35 Hezro the Carmelite, Paarai the Arbite, 36 Igal son of Nathan from Zobah, Bani the Gadite, 37 Zelek the Ammonite, Naharai the Beerothite, the armor-bearer of Joab son of Zeruiah, 38 Ira the Ithrite, Gareb the Ithrite, 39 and Uriah the Hittite. There were thirty-seven in all.
  • 1 Chr 19:8-9 : 8 When David heard this, he sent Joab and the entire army of mighty warriors. 9 The Ammonites came out and lined up for battle at the entrance to the city, while the kings who had come were by themselves in the open field. 10 When Joab saw that the battle lines were drawn both in front and behind him, he selected some of his best men from Israel and arranged them to fight against the Arameans. 11 He placed the rest of the troops under the command of his brother Abishai, and they arranged to confront the Ammonites. 12 Joab said, 'If the Arameans are too strong for me, you will come to my rescue, and if the Ammonites are too strong for you, then I will help you.' 13 Be strong, and let us show courage for the sake of our people and the cities of our God. And may the LORD do what is good in His sight. 14 Joab and the troops who were with him advanced against the Arameans to fight, and they fled before him. 15 When the Ammonites saw that the Arameans had fled, they also fled before Abishai, Joab's brother, and went back into the city. Then Joab returned to Jerusalem. 16 When the Arameans saw that they had been defeated by Israel, they sent messengers to bring out additional Aramean forces from beyond the Euphrates River, with Shophach, the commander of Hadadezer's army, leading them. 17 When David was informed, he gathered all Israel, crossed the Jordan, and advanced against them to set up his battle lines. David arranged his forces to face the Arameans, and they fought against him. 18 But the Arameans fled before Israel, and David killed seven thousand chariot drivers and forty thousand foot soldiers. He also struck down Shophach, the commander of their army. 19 When the servants of Hadadezer saw that they were defeated by Israel, they made peace with David and became his subjects. After this, the Arameans were no longer willing to help the Ammonites.
