  1 H314 Now these be the last H1697 words H1732 of David H1732 . David H1121 the son H3448 of Jesse H5002 said [H8803]   H1397 , and the man H6965 who was raised up [H8717]   H5920 on high H4899 , the anointed H430 of the God H3290 of Jacob H5273 , and the sweet H2158 psalmist H3478 of Israel H5002 , said [H8803]  ,
  2 H7307 The Spirit H3068 of the LORD H1696 spake [H8765]   H4405 by me, and his word H3956 was in my tongue.
  3 H430 The God H3478 of Israel H559 said [H8804]   H6697 , the Rock H3478 of Israel H1696 spake [H8765]   H4910 to me, He that ruleth [H8802]   H120 over men H6662 must be just H4910 , ruling [H8802]   H3374 in the fear H430 of God.
  4 H216 And he shall be as the light H1242 of the morning H8121 , when the sun H2224 riseth [H8799]   H1242 , even a morning H3808 without H5645 clouds H1877 ; as the tender grass H776 springing out of the earth H5051 by clear shining H4306 after rain.
  5 H1004 Although my house H410 be not so with God H7760 ; yet he hath made [H8804]   H5769 with me an everlasting H1285 covenant H6186 , ordered [H8803]   H8104 in all things, and sure [H8803]   H3468 : for this is all my salvation H2656 , and all my desire H6779 , although he make it not to grow [H8686]  .
  6 H1100 But the sons of Belial H6975 shall be all of them as thorns H5074 thrust away [H8716]   H3947 , because they cannot be taken [H8799]   H3027 with hands:
  7 H376 But the man H5060 that shall touch [H8799]   H4390 them must be fenced [H8735]   H1270 with iron H6086 and the staff H2595 of a spear H8313 ; and they shall be utterly [H8800]   H8313 burned [H8735]   H784 with fire H7675 in the same place [H8800]  .
  8 H8034 These be the names H1368 of the mighty men H1732 whom David H8461 had: The Tachmonite H3427 that sat [H8802]   H7675 in the seat [H8800]   [H8677]   H3429   H7218 , chief H7991 among the captains H5722 ; the same was Adino H6112 the Eznite H8083 : he lift up his spear against eight H3967 hundred H2491 , whom he slew H259 at one H6471 time.
  9 H310 And after H499 him was Eleazar H1121 the son H1734 of Dodo H266 the Ahohite H7969 , one of the three H1368 mighty men H1732 with David H2778 , when they defied [H8763]   H6430 the Philistines H622 that were there gathered together [H8738]   H4421 to battle H376 , and the men H3478 of Israel H5927 were gone away [H8799]  :
  10 H6965 He arose [H8804]   H5221 , and smote [H8686]   H6430 the Philistines H3588 until H3027 his hand H3021 was weary [H8804]   H3027 , and his hand H1692 clave [H8799]   H2719 unto the sword H3068 : and the LORD H6213 wrought [H8799]   H1419 a great H8668 victory H3117 that day H5971 ; and the people H7725 returned [H8799]   H310 after H6584 him only to spoil [H8763]  .
  11 H310 And after H8048 him was Shammah H1121 the son H89 of Agee H2043 the Hararite H6430 . And the Philistines H622 were gathered together [H8735]   H2416 into a troop H2513 , where was a piece H7704 of ground H4392 full H5742 of lentiles H5971 : and the people H5127 fled [H8804]   H6440 from H6430 the Philistines.
  12 H3320 But he stood [H8691]   H8432 in the midst H2513 of the ground H5337 , and defended [H8686]   H5221 it, and slew [H8686]   H6430 the Philistines H3068 : and the LORD H6213 wrought [H8799]   H1419 a great H8668 victory.
  13 H7969 And three [H8675]   H7970   H7970 of the thirty H7218 chief H3381 went down [H8799]   H935 , and came [H8799]   H1732 to David H7105 in the harvest time H4631 unto the cave H5725 of Adullam H2416 : and the troop H6430 of the Philistines H2583 pitched [H8802]   H6010 in the valley H7497 of Rephaim.
  14 H1732 And David H4686 was then in an hold H4673 , and the garrison H6430 of the Philistines H1035 was then in Bethlehem.
  15 H1732 And David H183 longed [H8691]   H559 , and said [H8799]   H8248 , Oh that one would give me drink [H8686]   H4325 of the water H953 of the well H1035 of Bethlehem H8179 , which is by the gate!
  16 H7969 And the three H1368 mighty men H1234 brake through [H8799]   H4264 the host H6430 of the Philistines H7579 , and drew [H8799]   H4325 water H953 out of the well H1035 of Bethlehem H8179 , that was by the gate H5375 , and took [H8799]   H935 it, and brought [H8686]   H1732 it to David H14 : nevertheless he would [H8804]   H8354 not drink [H8800]   H5258 thereof, but poured it out [H8686]   H3068 unto the LORD.
  17 H559 And he said [H8799]   H2486 , Be it far H3068 from me, O LORD H6213 , that I should do [H8800]   H1818 this: is not this the blood H582 of the men H1980 that went [H8802]   H5315 in jeopardy of their lives H14 ? therefore he would [H8804]   H8354 not drink [H8800]   H6213 it. These things did [H8804]   H7969 these three H1368 mighty men.
  18 H52 And Abishai H251 , the brother H3097 of Joab H1121 , the son H6870 of Zeruiah H7218 , was chief H7992 among three H5782 . And he lifted up [H8790]   H2595 his spear H7969 against three H3967 hundred H2491 , and slew H8034 them, and had the name H7969 among three.
  19 H3513 Was he not most honourable [H8737]   H7969 of three H8269 ? therefore he was their captain H935 : howbeit he attained [H8804]   H7969 not unto the first three.
  20 H1141 And Benaiah H1121 the son H3077 of Jehoiada H1121 , the son H2428 of a valiant H376 man [H8677]   H381   H6909 , of Kabzeel H7227 , who had done many H6467 acts H5221 , he slew [H8689]   H8147 two H739 lionlike men H4124 of Moab H3381 : he went down [H8804]   H5221 also and slew [H8689]   H738 a lion H8432 in the midst H953 of a pit H3117 in time H7950 of snow:
  21 H2026 And he slew [H8799]   H4713 an Egyptian H4758 , a goodly H376 man H4713 : and the Egyptian H2595 had a spear H3027 in his hand H3381 ; but he went down [H8799]   H7626 to him with a staff H1497 , and plucked [H8799]   H2595 the spear H4713 out of the Egyptian's H3027 hand H5221 , and slew [H8689]   H2595 him with his own spear.
  22 H6213 These things did [H8804]   H1141 Benaiah H1121 the son H3077 of Jehoiada H8034 , and had the name H7969 among three H1368 mighty men.
  23 H3513 He was more honourable [H8737]   H7970 than the thirty H935 , but he attained [H8804]   H7969 not to the first three H1732 . And David H7760 set [H8799]   H4928 him over his guard.

ERV(i) 1 Now these be the last words of David. David the son of Jesse saith, and the man who was raised on high saith, the anointed of the God of Jacob, and the sweet psalmist of Israel: 2 The spirit of the LORD spake by me, and his word was upon my tongue. 3 The God of Israel said, the Rock of Israel spake to me: One that ruleth over men righteously, that ruleth in the fear of God, 4 [He shall be] as the light of the morning, when the sun riseth, a morning without clouds; [when] the tender grass [springeth] out of the earth, through clear shining after rain. 5 Verily my house is not so with God; yet he hath made with me an everlasting covenant, ordered in all things, and sure: for it is all my salvation, and all [my] desire, although he maketh it not to grow. 6 But the ungodly shall be all of them as thorns to be thrust away, for they cannot be taken with the hand: 7 But the man that toucheth them must be armed with iron and the staff of a spear; and they shall be utterly burned with fire in [their] place. 8 These be the names of the mighty men whom David had: Josheb-basshebeth a Tahchemonite, chief of the captains; the same was Adino the Eznite, against eight hundred slain at one time. 9 And after him was Eleazar the son of Dodai the son of an Ahohite, one of the three mighty men with David, when they defied the Philistines that were there gathered together to battle, and the men of Israel were gone away: 10 He arose, and smote the Philistines until his hand was weary, and his hand clave unto the sword: and the LORD wrought a great victory that day; and the people returned after him only to spoil. 11 And after him was Shammah the son of Agce a Hararite. And the Philistines were gathered together into a troop, where was a plot of ground full of lentils; and the people fled from the Philistines. 12 But he stood in the midst of the plot, and defended it, and slew the Philistines: and the LORD wrought a great victory. 13 And three of the thirty chief went down, and came to David in the harvest time unto the cave of Adullam; and the troop of the Philistines were encamped in the valley of Rephaim. 14 And David was then in the hold, and the garrison of the Philistines was then in Beth-lehem. 15 And David longed and said, Oh that one would give me water to drink of the well of Beth-lehem which is by the gate! 16 And the three mighty men brake through the host of the Philistines, and drew water out of the well of Beth-lehem, that was by the gate, and took it, and brought it to David: but he would not drink thereof, but poured it out unto the LORD. 17 And he said, Be it far from me, O LORD, that I should do this: [shall I drink] the blood of the men that went in jeopardy of their lives? therefore he would not drink it. These things did the three mighty men. 18 And Abishai, the brother of Joab, the son of Zeruiah, was chief of the three. And he lifted up his spear against three hundred and slew them, and had a name among the three. 19 Was he not most honourable of the three? therefore he was made their captain: howbeit he attained not unto the [first] three. 20 And Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, the son of a valiant man of Kabzeel, who had done mighty deeds, he slew the two [sons of] Ariel of Moab: he went down also and slew a lion in the midst of a pit in time of snow: 21 And he slew an Egyptian, a goodly man: and the Egyptian had a spear in his hand; but he went down to him with a staff, and plucked the spear out of the Egyptian’s hand, and slew him with his own spear. 22 These things did Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and had a name among the three mighty men. 23 He was more honourable than the thirty, but he attained not to the [first] three. And David set him over his guard. 24 Asahel the brother of Joab was one of the thirty; Elhanan the son of Dodo of Beth-lehem; 25 Shammah the Harodite, Elika the Harodite; 26 Helez the Paltite, Ira the son of Ikkesh the Tekoite; 27 Abiezer the Anathothite, Mebunnai the Hushathite; 28 Zalmon the Ahohite, Maharai the Netophathite; 29 Heleb the son of Baanah the Netophathite, Ittai the son of Ribai of Gibeah of the children of Benjamin; 30 Benaiah a Pirathonite, Hiddai of the brooks of Gaash; 31 Abi-albon the Arbathite, Azmaveth the Barhumite; 32 Eliahba the Shaalbonite, the sons of Jashen, Jonathan; 33 Shammah the Hararite, Ahiam the son of Sharar the Ararite; 34 Eliphelet the son of Ahasbai, the son of the Maacathite, Eliam the son of Ahithophel the Gilonite; 35 Hezro the Carmelite, Paarai the Arbite; 36 Igal the son of Nathan of Zobah, Bani the Gadite; 37 Zelek the Ammonite, Naharai the Beerothite, armourbearers to Joab the son of Zeruiah; 38 Ira the Ithrite, Gareb the Ithrite; 39 Uriah the Hittite: thirty and seven in all.
