New King James Version
20 Benaiah was the son of Jehoiada, the son of a valiant man from (A)Kabzeel, [a]who had done many deeds. (B)He had killed two lion-like heroes of Moab. He also had gone down and killed a lion in the midst of a pit on a snowy day. 21 And he killed an Egyptian, [b]a spectacular man. The Egyptian had a spear in his hand; so he went down to him with a staff, wrested the spear out of the Egyptian’s hand, and killed him with his own spear. 22 These things Benaiah the son of Jehoiada did, and won a name among three mighty men. 23 He was more honored than the thirty, but he did not attain to the first three. And David appointed him (C)over his guard.

New King James Version
21 “The(C) Lord rewarded me according to my righteousness;
According to the (D)cleanness of my hands
He has recompensed me.
22 For I have (E)kept the ways of the Lord,
And have not wickedly departed from my God.
23 For all His (F)judgments were before me;
And as for His statutes, I did not depart from them.
