2 Samuel 21:17-19
New King James Version
17 But (A)Abishai the son of Zeruiah came to his aid, and struck the Philistine and killed him. Then the men of David swore to him, saying, (B)“You shall go out no more with us to battle, lest you quench the (C)lamp of Israel.”
18 (D)Now it happened afterward that there was again a battle with the Philistines at Gob. Then (E)Sibbechai the Hushathite killed [a]Saph, who was one of the sons of [b]the giant. 19 Again there was war at Gob with the Philistines, where (F)Elhanan the son of [c]Jaare-Oregim the Bethlehemite killed (G)the brother of Goliath the Gittite, the shaft of whose spear was like a weaver’s beam.
