2 Samuel 23:20-22
Common English Bible
20 Jehoiada’s son Benaiah was a hero from Kabzeel who performed great deeds. He killed the two sons[a] of Ariel from Moab. He once went down into a pit and killed a lion on a snowy day. 21 He also killed a giant[b] Egyptian who had a spear in his hand. Benaiah went against him armed with a staff. He grabbed the spear out of the Egyptian’s hand and killed him with his own spear. 22 These were the kinds of things Jehoiada’s son Benaiah did. He made a name for himself along with the three warriors.
