1 Chronicles 11:18-20

Expanded Bible

¹⁸ So the Three broke through the Philistine ·army [camp; lines] and took water from the well near the city gate in Bethlehem. Then they brought it to David, but he refused to drink it. He poured it out ·before [as an offering to] the Lord, ¹⁹ saying, “·May God keep me from drinking [God forbid that I drink] this water! ·It would be like drinking [^LShould I drink…?] the blood of the men who risked their lives to bring it to me!” So David refused to drink it.

These were the ·brave things [kind of things] that the three warriors did.

²⁰ Abishai brother of Joab was the ·captain [leader; chief] of the Three. Abishai fought three hundred soldiers with his spear and killed them. He ·became as famous as [^Lhad a name as did] the ·Three [or Thirty; or officers; v. 11]
