2 Samuel 23:18-20

Good News Translation

¹⁸ Joab's brother Abishai (their mother was Zeruiah) was the leader of “The Famous Thirty.” He fought with his spear against three hundred men and killed them, and became famous among “The Thirty.”^{[a] 19} He was the most famous of “The Thirty”^[b] and became their leader, but he was not as famous as “The Three.”

²⁰ Benaiah son of Jehoiada from Kabzeel was another famous soldier; he did many brave deeds, including killing two great Moabite warriors. He once went down into a pit on a snowy day and killed a lion.
