18 E Abisai irmão de Joabe, filho de Zeruia, foi o principal dos três; o qual levantou sua lança contra trezentos, que matou; e teve nome entre os três.

19 Ele era o mais preeminente dos três, e o primeiro deles; mas não chegou aos três primeiros.

20 Depois, Benaia filho de Joiada, filho de um homem esforçado, grande em feitos, de Cabzeel. Este feriu dois leões de Moabe: e ele mesmo desceu, e feriu um leão em meio de um fosso no tempo da neve:

21 Também feriu ele a um egípcio, homem de grande estatura; e tinha o egípcio uma lança em sua mão; mas desceu a ele com um cajado, e arrebatou ao egípcio a lança da mão, e o matou com sua própria lança.

22 Isto fez Benaia filho de Joiada, e teve nome entre os três valentes.
