New Testament

1 Chronicles 11:7-12 English Standard Version (ESV)

7. And David lived in the stronghold; therefore it was called the city of David.

8. And he built the city all around from the Millo in complete circuit, and Joab repaired the rest of the city.

9. And David became greater and greater, for the Lord of hosts was with him.

10. Now these are the chiefs of David’s mighty men, who gave him strong support in his kingdom, together with all Israel, to make him king, according to the word of the Lord concerning Israel.

11. This is an account of David’s mighty men: Jashobeam, a Hachmonite, was chief of the three. He wielded his spear against 300 whom he killed at one time.

12. And next to him among the three mighty men was Eleazar the son of Dodo, the Ahohite.
