2 Samuel 23:19-21

Easy-to-Read Version

¹⁹ Abishai was as famous as the Three Heroes. He became their leader, even though he was not one of them.

²⁰ Then there was Benaiah son of Jehoiada, from Kabzeel. He was the son of a powerful man.^[a] Benaiah did many brave things. He killed two of the best soldiers in Moab. One day when it was snowing, Benaiah went down into a hole in the ground and killed a lion. ²¹ Benaiah also killed a big Egyptian soldier. The Egyptian had a spear in his hand, and Benaiah only had a club. He grabbed the spear in the Egyptian’s hands and took it away from him. Then Benaiah killed the Egyptian with his own spear.
