2 Samuel 23:18-39 - David's Thirty Fighting Men
18 Zeruiah's son Abishai, Joab's brother, was the lieutenant in charge of the platoons. He used his spear to fight and kill 300 men, gaining a reputation distinct from the Three. 19 He was more well-known than the Three, and became their commander, but he never measured up to the Three.
20 Jehoiada's son Benaiah, who was a valiant man, accomplished great things. He was from Kabzeel. He killed two men named Ariel from Moab and then he also went down into a pit and struck down a lion during a snow storm one day. 21 He also killed a soldier from Egypt. Of handsome appearance, the Egyptian carried a spear, but Benaiah attacked him with a staff, snatched the spear out of the Egyptian's hand and killed him with his own spear. 22 Benaiah did things like this and gained a reputation comparable to the Three warriors. 23 He was well known among the platoons, but he didn't measure up to the Three. David placed him in charge of his security detail.
24 Among the Thirty were Joab's brother Asahel, Dodo's son Elhanan of Bethlehem, 25 Shammah from Harod; Elika from Harod, 26 Helez the Paltite, Ikkesh's son Ira from Tekoa, 27 Abiezer from Anathoth, Mebunnai the Hushathite, 28 Zalmon the Ahohite, Maharai of Netophah, 29 Baanah's son Heleb from Netophah, Ribai's son Ittai from Gibeah of the descendants of Benjamin, 30 Benaiah from Pirathon, Hiddai from the Gaash creeks area, 31 Abi-albon the Arbathite, Azmaveth from Bahurim, 32 Eliahba from Shaalbon, Jashen's sons, 33 Shammah's son from Harar, Sharar the Hararite's son Ahiam, 34 Ahasbai the Maacathite's son Eliphelet, Ahithophel the Gilonite's son Eliam, 35 Hezro from Carmel, Paarai the Arbite, 36 Nathan's son Igal from Zobah, Bani the Gadite, 37 Zelek the Ammonite, Naharai from Beeroth (the armor-bearer for Zeruiah's son Joab), 38 Ira the Ithrite, Gareb the Ithrite, 39 and Uriah the Hittite for a total of 37.
