2 Samuel 23:20-22
English Standard Version
20 And (A)Benaiah the son of Jehoiada was a valiant man[a] of (B)Kabzeel, a doer of great deeds. He struck down two ariels[b] of Moab. He also went down and struck down a lion in a pit on a day when snow had fallen. 21 And he struck down an Egyptian, a handsome man. The Egyptian had a spear in his hand, but Benaiah went down to him with a staff and snatched the spear out of the Egyptian's hand and killed him with his own spear. 22 These things did Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and won a name beside the three mighty men.
