2 Samuel 21:15-22

Abishai Rescues David from the Giant

¹⁵ War broke out again between the Philistines and Israel. David and his men went down to fight. David became exhausted. ¹⁶ Ishbi-Benob, a warrior descended from Rapha, with a spear weighing nearly eight pounds and outfitted in brand-new armor, announced that he'd kill David. ¹⁷ But Abishai son of Zeruiah came to the rescue, struck the Philistine, and killed him. Then David's men swore to him, "No more fighting on the front-lines for you! Don't snuff out the lamp of Israel!"

The Giants Slain by David's Men

¹⁸ Later there was another skirmish with the Philistines at Gob. That time Sibbecai the Hushathite killed Saph, another of the warriors descended from Rapha. ¹⁹ At yet another battle with the Philistines at Gob, Elhanan son of Jaar, the weaver of Bethlehem, killed Goliath the Gittite whose spear was as big as a flagpole. ²⁰ Still another fight broke out in Gath. There was a giant there with six fingers on his hands and six toes on his feet - twenty-four fingers and toes! He was another of those descended from Rapha. ²¹ He insulted Israel, and Jonathan son of Shimeah, David's brother, killed him. ²² These four were descended from Rapha in Gath. And they all were killed by David and his soldiers.
