David’s Mighty Warriors 10These were the chiefs of David’s mighty warriors—they, together with all Israel, gave his kingship strong support to extend it over the whole land, as the LORD had promised—

11this is the list of David’s mighty warriors: Jashobeam, Possibly a variant of Jashob-Baal a Hakmonite, was chief of the officers Or Thirty; some Septuagint manuscripts Three (see also 2 Samuel 23:8) ; he raised his spear against three hundred men, whom he killed in one encounter. 12Next to him was Eleazar son of Dodai the Ahohite, one of the three mighty warriors. 13He was with David at Pas Dammim when the Philistines gathered there for battle. At a place where there was a field full of barley, the troops fled from the Philistines.

14But they took their stand in the middle of the field. They defended it and struck the Philistines down, and the LORD brought about a great victory.
