1 Chronicles 11:22-24
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
22 And Bena′iah the son of Jehoi′ada was a valiant man[a] of Kabzeel, a doer of great deeds; he smote two ariels[b] of Moab. He also went down and slew a lion in a pit on a day when snow had fallen. 23 And he slew an Egyptian, a man of great stature, five cubits tall. The Egyptian had in his hand a spear like a weaver’s beam; but Bena′iah went down to him with a staff, and snatched the spear out of the Egyptian’s hand, and slew him with his own spear. 24 These things did Bena′iah the son of Jehoi′ada, and won a name beside the three mighty men.
