2 Samuel 23:6-8
GOD’S WORD Translation
6 “Worthless people are like thorns.
All of them are thrown away, because they cannot be picked by hand.
7 A person who touches them uses iron ⌞tools⌟
or the shaft of a spear.
Fire [a] will burn them up completely wherever they are.”
David’s Three Fighting Men(A)
8 These are the names of David’s fighting men: Josheb Basshebeth from Tahkemon’s family was leader of the three. He used a spear [b] to kill 800 men on one occasion.
