1 Chronicles 11:22-24
Evangelical Heritage Version

22 Benaiah son of Jehoiada, a courageous man from Kabze’el, did great things. He struck down two Lions of God[a] from Moab. He also went down and killed a lion in a cistern[b] on a snowy day. 23 He also killed an Egyptian who was seven and a half feet tall. The Egyptian was holding a spear like a weaver’s beam. Benaiah went down to him with a staff, snatched the spear from the hand of the Egyptian, and killed him with his own spear. 24 Benaiah son of Jehoiada accomplished these feats. His reputation equaled that of the Three.
