2 Samuel 23

23:1
Now these [be] the last
<0314>
words
<01697>
of David
<01732>_.
David
<01732>
the son
<01121>
of Jesse
<03448>
said
<05002> (8803)_,
and the man
<01397>
[who was] raised up
<06965> (8717)
on high
<05920>_,
the anointed
<04899>
of the God
<0430>
of Jacob
<03290>_,
and the sweet
<05273>
psalmist
<02158>
of Israel
<03478>_,
said
<05002> (8803)_,
23:2
The Spirit
<07307>
of the LORD
<03068>
spake
<01696> (8765)
by me, and his word
<04405>
[was] in my tongue
<03956>_.
23:3
The God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>
said
<0559> (8804)_,
the Rock
<06697>
of Israel
<03478>
spake
<01696> (8765)
to me, He that ruleth
<04910> (8802)
over men
<0120>
[must be] just
<06662>_,
ruling
<04910> (8802)
in the fear
<03374>
of God
<0430>_.
{He...: or, Be thou ruler, etc}
23:4
And [he shall be] as the light
<0216>
of the morning
<01242>_,
[when] the sun
<08121>
riseth
<02224> (8799)_,
[even] a morning
<01242>
without
<03808>
clouds
<05645>_;
[as] the tender grass
<01877>
[springing] out of the earth
<0776>
by clear shining
<05051>
after rain
<04306>_.
23:5
Although my house
<01004>
[be] not so with God
<0410>_;
yet he hath made
<07760> (8804)
with me an everlasting
<05769>
covenant
<01285>_,
ordered
<06186> (8803)
in all [things], and sure
<08104> (8803)_:
for [this is] all my salvation
<03468>_,
and all [my] desire
<02656>_,
although he make [it] not to grow
<06779> (8686)_.
23:6
But [the sons] of Belial
<01100>
[shall be] all of them as thorns
<06975>
thrust away
<05074> (8716)_,
because they cannot be taken
<03947> (8799)
with hands
<03027>_:
23:7
But the man
<0376>
[that] shall touch
<05060> (8799)
them must be fenced
<04390> (8735)
with iron
<01270>
and the staff
<06086>
of a spear
<02595>_;
and they shall be utterly
<08313> (8800)
burned
<08313> (8735)
with fire
<0784>
in the [same] place
<07675> (8800)_.
{fenced: Heb. filled}
23:8
These [be] the names
<08034>
of the mighty men
<01368>
whom David
<01732>
had: The Tachmonite
<08461>
that sat
<03427> (8802)
in the seat
<07675> (8800) (8677) <03429>_,
chief
<07218>
among the captains
<07991>_;
the same [was] Adino
<05722>
the Eznite
<06112>_:
[he lift up his spear] against eight
<08083>
hundred
<03967>_,
whom he slew
<02491>
at one
<0259>
time
<06471>_.
{The Tachmonite...: or, Joshebbassebet the Tachmonite, head of the three} {whom he...: Heb. slain} {he lift...: from 1ch 11:11 whom he...: Heb. slain}
23:9
And after
<0310>
him [was] Eleazar
<0499>
the son
<01121>
of Dodo
<01734>
the Ahohite
<0266>_,
[one] of the three
<07969>
mighty men
<01368>
with David
<01732>_,
when they defied
<02778> (8763)
the Philistines
<06430>
[that] were there gathered together
<0622> (8738)
to battle
<04421>_,
and the men
<0376>
of Israel
<03478>
were gone away
<05927> (8799)_:
23:10
He arose
<06965> (8804)_,
and smote
<05221> (8686)
the Philistines
<06430>
until
<03588>
his hand
<03027>
was weary
<03021> (8804)_,
and his hand
<03027>
clave
<01692> (8799)
unto the sword
<02719>_:
and the LORD
<03068>
wrought
<06213> (8799)
a great
<01419>
victory
<08668>
that day
<03117>_;
and the people
<05971>
returned
<07725> (8799)
after
<0310>
him only to spoil
<06584> (8763)_.
23:11
And after
<0310>
him [was] Shammah
<08048>
the son
<01121>
of Agee
<089>
the Hararite
<02043>_.
And the Philistines
<06430>
were gathered together
<0622> (8735)
into a troop
<02416>_,
where was a piece
<02513>
of ground
<07704>
full
<04392>
of lentiles
<05742>_:
and the people
<05971>
fled
<05127> (8804)
from
<06440>
the Philistines
<06430>_.
{into...: or, for foraging}
23:12
But he stood
<03320> (8691)
in the midst
<08432>
of the ground
<02513>_,
and defended
<05337> (8686)
it, and slew
<05221> (8686)
the Philistines
<06430>_:
and the LORD
<03068>
wrought
<06213> (8799)
a great
<01419>
victory
<08668>_.
23:13
And three
<07969> (8675) <07970>
of the thirty
<07970>
chief
<07218>
went down
<03381> (8799)_,
and came
<0935> (8799)
to David
<01732>
in the harvest time
<07105>
unto the cave
<04631>
of Adullam
<05725>_:
and the troop
<02416>
of the Philistines
<06430>
pitched
<02583> (8802)
in the valley
<06010>
of Rephaim
<07497>_.
{three...: or, the three captains over the thirty}
23:14
And David
<01732>
[was] then in an hold
<04686>_,
and the garrison
<04673>
of the Philistines
<06430>
[was] then [in] Bethlehem
<01035>_.
23:15
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>_,
which [is] by the gate
<08179>_!
23:16
And the three
<07969>
mighty men
<01368>
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>_:
nevertheless he would
<014> (8804)
not drink
<08354> (8800)
thereof, but poured it out
<05258> (8686)
unto the LORD
<03068>_.
23:17
And he said
<0559> (8799)_,
Be it far
<02486>
from me, O LORD
<03068>_,
that I should do
<06213> (8800)
this: [is not this] the blood
<01818>
of the men
<0582>
that went
<01980> (8802)
in jeopardy of their lives
<05315>_?
therefore he would
<014> (8804)
not drink
<08354> (8800)
it. These things did
<06213> (8804)
these three
<07969>
mighty men
<01368>_.
23:18
And Abishai
<052>_,
the brother
<0251>
of Joab
<03097>_,
the son
<01121>
of Zeruiah
<06870>_,
was chief
<07218>
among three
<07992>_.
And he lifted up
<05782> (8790)
his spear
<02595>
against three
<07969>
hundred
<03967>_,
[and] slew
<02491>
[them], and had the name
<08034>
among three
<07969>_.
{and slew them: Heb. slain}
23:19
Was he not most honourable
<03513> (8737)
of three
<07969>_?
therefore he was their captain
<08269>_:
howbeit he attained
<0935> (8804)
not unto the [first] three
<07969>_.
23:20
And Benaiah
<01141>
the son
<01121>
of Jehoiada
<03077>_,
the son
<01121>
of a valiant
<02428>
man
<0376> (8677) <0381>_,
of Kabzeel
<06909>_,
who had done many
<07227>
acts
<06467>_,
he slew
<05221> (8689)
two
<08147>
lionlike men
<0739>
of Moab
<04124>_:
he went down
<03381> (8804)
also and slew
<05221> (8689)
a lion
<0738>
in the midst
<08432>
of a pit
<0953>
in time
<03117>
of snow
<07950>_:
{who...: Heb. great of acts} {lionlike...: Heb. lion of God}
23:21
And he slew
<02026> (8799)
an Egyptian
<04713>_,
a goodly
<04758>
man
<0376>_:
and the Egyptian
<04713>
had a spear
<02595>
in his hand
<03027>_;
but 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
<05221> (8689)
him with his own spear
<02595>_.
{a goodly...: Heb. a man of countenance, or, sight: also called, a man of great stature}
23:22
These [things] did
<06213> (8804)
Benaiah
<01141>
the son
<01121>
of Jehoiada
<03077>_,
and had the name
<08034>
among three
<07969>
mighty men
<01368>_.
23:23
He was more honourable
<03513> (8737)
than the thirty
<07970>_,
but he attained
<0935> (8804)
not to the [first] three
<07969>_.
And David
<01732>
set
<07760> (8799)
him over his guard
<04928>_.
