5. Isn’t my house so with God?Yet he has made with me an everlasting covenant,ordered in all things, and sure,for it is all my salvation, and all my desire,although he doesn’t make it grow.
6. But all the ungodly will be as thorns to be thrust away,because they can’t be taken with the hand,
7. But the man who touches them must be armed with iron and the staff of a spear.They will be utterly burnt with fire in their place.”
8. These are the names of the mighty men whom David had: Josheb Basshebeth a Tahchemonite, chief of the captains; the same was Adino the Eznite, against eight hundred slain at one time.
9. After him was Eleazar the son of Dodai the son of an Ahohite, one of the three mighty men with David, when they defied the Philistines who were there gathered together to battle, and the men of Israel had gone away.
10. He arose and struck the Philistines until his hand was weary, and his hand froze to the sword; and the Lord worked a great victory that day; and the people returned after him only to take plunder.
