2 Samuel 21:15-22
New American Standard Bible 1995

15 Now when (A)the Philistines were at war again with Israel, David went down and his servants with him; and as they fought against the Philistines, David became weary. 16 Then Ishbi-benob, who was (B)among the descendants of the [a]giant, the weight of whose spear was three hundred shekels of bronze in weight, [b]was girded with a new sword, and he [c]intended to kill David. 17 But (C)Abishai the son of Zeruiah helped him, and struck the Philistine and killed him. Then the men of David swore to him, saying, “(D)You shall not go out again with us to battle, so that you do not extinguish (E)the lamp of Israel.”

18 (F)Now it came about after this that there was war again with the Philistines at Gob; then (G)Sibbecai the Hushathite struck down Saph, who was among the descendants of the [d]giant. 19 There was war with the Philistines again at Gob, and Elhanan the son of Jaare-oregim the Bethlehemite [e]killed [f]Goliath the Gittite, (H)the shaft of whose spear was like a weaver’s beam. 20 There was war at Gath again, where there was a man of great stature who had six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot, twenty-four in number; and he also had been born (I)to the [g]giant. 21 When he defied Israel, Jonathan the son of Shimei, David’s brother, struck him down. 22 (J)These four were born to the [h]giant in Gath, and they fell by the hand of David and by the hand of his servants.

War with the Philistines

15 And (A)the Philistines were at war again with Israel, so David went down and his servants with him; and as they fought against the Philistines, David became weary. 16 Then Ishbi-benob, who was (B)among those born to the [a]giants, the weight of whose spear was [b]three hundred shekels of bronze in weight, [c]was girded with a new sword, and he [d]intended to strike down David. 17 But (C)Abishai the son of Zeruiah helped him, and struck the Philistine and put him to death. Then the men of David swore to him, saying, “(D)You shall not go out again with us to battle, so that you do not extinguish (E)the lamp of Israel.”

18 (F)Now it happened afterwards that there was war again with the Philistines at Gob; then (G)Sibbecai the Hushathite struck down Saph, who was among those born to the [e]giants. 19 There was war with the Philistines again at Gob, and Elhanan the son of Jaare-oregim the Bethlehemite struck down [f]Goliath the Gittite, (H)the shaft of whose spear was like a weaver’s beam. 20 Then there was war at Gath again, and there was a man of great stature who had six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot, twenty-four in number; and he also had been born (I)to the [g]giants. 21 And he [h]reproached Israel, so Jonathan the son of Shimei, David’s brother, struck him down. 22 (J)These four were born to the [i]giants in Gath, and they fell by the hand of David and by the hand of his servants.
