1 Chronicles 11:23-25

International Children’s Bible

²³ Benaiah also killed an Egyptian who was about seven and a half feet tall. The Egyptian had a spear as large as a weaver’s rod. Benaiah had a club. But he grabbed the spear from the Egyptian’s hand. And he used the Egyptian’s own spear to kill him. ²⁴ These were the things Benaiah son of Jehoiada did. Benaiah became as famous as the Three. ²⁵ He received more honor than the Thirty, David’s most powerful soldiers. But he did not become a member of the Three. David chose Benaiah to be the leader of his bodyguards.
