Chapter 23
Nowe
these
bee
the
last
words
of
Dauid:
Dauid
the
sonne
of
Iesse
saide,
and
the
man
who
was
raised
vp
on
high,
the
Anointed
of
the
God
of
Iacob,
and
the
sweet
Psalmist
of
Israel,
said,
2
The
spirit
of
the
Lord
spake
by
me,
and
his
word
was
in
my
tongue.
3
The
God
of
Israel
said,
the
Rocke
of
Israel
spake
to
me:
he
that
ruleth
ouer
men
must
be
iust,
ruling
in
the
feare
of
God:
4
And
he
shall
be
as
the
light
of
the
morning,
when
the
Sunne
riseth,
euen
a
morning,
without
cloudes;
as
the
tender
grasse
springing
out
of
the
earth
by
cleare
shining
after
raine:
5
Although
my
house
be
not
so
with
God:
yet
he
hath
made
with
mee
an
euerlasting
couenant,
ordred
in
al
things
and
sure:
for
this
is
all
my
saluation,
and
all
my
desire,
although
he
make
it
not
to
grow.
6
But
the
sonnes
of
Belial
shall
bee
all
of
them
as
thornes
thrust
away,
because
they
cannot
be
taken
with
hands,
7
But
the
man
that
shal
touch
them,
must
be
fenced
with
yron,
and
the
staffe
of
a
speare,
and
they
shall
bee
vtterly
burnt
with
fire
in
the
same
place.
8
These
be
the
names
of
the
mightie
men
whome
Dauid
had:
The
Tachmonite
that
sate
in
the
seat,
chiefe
among
the
captaines,
(the
same
was
Adino
the
Eznite:)
hee
lift
vp
his
speare
against
eight
hundred,
whom
he
slew
at
one
time.
9
And
after
him
was
Eleazar
the
sonne
of
Dodo
the
Ahohite,
one
of
the
three
mightie
men
with
Dauid,
when
they
defied
the
Philistines
that
were
there
gathered
together
to
battell,
and
the
men
of
Israel
were
gone
away.
10
He
arose,
and
smote
the
Philistines
vntill
his
hand
was
wearie,
and
his
hand
claue
vnto
the
sword:
and
the
Lord
wrought
a
great
victorie
that
day,
and
the
people
returned
after
him
onely
to
spoile.
11
And
after
him
was
Shammah
the
sonne
of
Agee
the
Hararite:
and
the
Philistines
were
gathered
together
into
a
troupe,
where
was
a
piece
of
ground
full
of
lentiles:
and
the
people
fled
from
the
Philistines.
12
But
hee
stood
in
the
midst
of
the
ground,
and
defended
it,
and
slewe
the
Philistines:
and
the
Lord
wrought
a
great
victorie.
13
And
three
of
the
thirtie
chiefe
went
downe
and
came
to
Dauid
in
the
haruest
time,
vnto
the
caue
of
Adullam:
and
the
troupe
of
the
Philistines
pitched
in
the
valley
of
Rephaim.
14
And
Dauid
was
then
in
an
holde,
and
the
garison
of
the
Philistines
was
then
in
Bethlehem.
15
And
Dauid
longed,
and
said,
Oh
that
one
would
giue
mee
drinke
of
the
water
of
the
well
of
Bethlehem
which
is
by
the
gate.
16
And
the
three
mightie
men
brake
through
the
host
of
the
Philistines,
and
drew
water
out
of
the
Well
of
Bethlehem,
that
was
by
the
gate,
and
tooke
it,
and
brought
it
to
Dauid:
neuerthelesse
he
would
not
drinke
thereof,
but
powred
it
out
vnto
the
Lord.
17
And
he
said,
Be
it
farre
from
me,
O
Lord,
that
I
should
doe
this:
is
not
this
the
blood
of
the
men
that
went
in
ieopardie
of
their
liues?
therefore
he
would
not
drinke
it.
These
things
did
these
three
mightie
men.
18
And
Abishai
the
brother
of
Ioab,
the
sonne
of
Zeruiah,
was
chiefe
among
three,
and
he
lift
vp
his
speare
against
three
hundred,
and
slew
them,
and
had
the
name
among
three.
19
Was
hee
not
most
honourable
of
three?
therefore
he
was
their
captaine:
howbeit,
hee
attained
not
vnto
the
first
three.
20
And
Benaiah
the
sonne
of
Iehoiada
the
sonne
of
a
valiant
man,
of
Kabzeel,
who
had
done
many
actes,
he
slew
two
lion-like
men
of
Moab:
hee
went
downe
also,
and
slewe
a
Lyon
in
the
middest
of
a
pit
in
time
of
snow.
21
And
he
slew
an
Egyptian
a
goodly
man:
and
the
Egyptian
had
a
speare
in
his
hand;
but
he
went
downe
to
him
with
a
staffe,
and
plucked
the
speare
out
of
the
Egyptians
hand,
and
slewe
him
with
his
owne
speare.
22
These
things
did
Benaiah
the
sonne
of
Iehoiada,
and
had
the
name
among
three
mightie
men.
23
Hee
was
more
honourable
then
the
thirtie,
but
hee
attained
not
to
the
first
three:
and
Dauid
set
him
ouer
his
guard.
