1 Chronicles 11:21-23

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

²¹ Of the Three [in the second rank] he was more renowned than the two, and became their captain; however, he attained not to the first three.

²² Benaiah son of Jehoiada, whose father was a valiant man of Kabzeel, had done mighty deeds. He slew the two sons of Ariel of Moab. Also he went down and slew a lion in a pit in time of snow.

²³ He slew an Egyptian also, a man of great stature, five cubits tall. The Egyptian held a spear like a weaver’s beam, and [Benaiah] went to him with a staff and plucked the spear out of the Egyptian’s hand and slew him with the man’s own spear.
