21 Benaiah also killed a big Egyptian soldier. The Egyptian had a spear in his hand, and Benaiah only had a club. He grabbed the spear in the Egyptian’s hands and took it away from him. Then Benaiah killed the Egyptian with his own spear.
22 Benaiah son of Jehoiada did many more brave things like that. He was as famous as the Three Heroes.
23 Benaiah was even more famous than the Thirty Heroes, but he did not become a member of the Three Heroes. David made Benaiah the leader of his bodyguards.

25 Shammah the Harodite; Elika the Harodite;
26 Helez the Paltite; Ira son of Ikkesh from Tekoa;
