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.
