1 Chronicles 11:18-20
Evangelical Heritage Version
18 The Three broke through the camp of the Philistines and drew water from the well[a] of Bethlehem inside the gate. They took it and brought it to David. However, David was not willing to drink it. Instead, he poured it out to the Lord. 19 He said, “I should be cursed by God if I did that. Shall I drink the blood of these men? They risked their lives to bring it to me.” He was not willing to drink it. The three elite warriors carried out these actions.
