14 David entonces estaba en la fortaleza, y la guarnición de los Filisteos estaba en Beth-lehem.
15 Y David tuvo deseo, y dijo: ¡Quién me diera á beber del agua de la cisterna de Beth-lehem, que está á la puerta!
16 Entonces los tres valientes rompieron por el campo de los Filisteos, y sacaron agua de la cisterna de Beth-lehem, que estaba á la puerta; y tomaron, y trajéronla á David: mas él no la quiso beber, sino derramóla á Jehová, diciendo:
17 Lejos sea de mí, oh Jehová, que yo haga esto. ¿[He de beber yo] la sangre de los varones que fueron con peligro de su vida? Y no quiso beberla. Los tres valientes hicieron esto.
