^{15 Ref} And three of the thirty heads go down on the rock unto David, unto the cave of Adullam, and the host of the Philistines is encamping in the valley of Rephaim,

^{16 Ref} and David `is' then in the fortress, and the station of the Philistines `is' then in Beth-Lehem,

^{17 Ref} and David longeth, and saith, `Who doth give me to drink water from the well of Beth-Lehem, that `is' at the gate!'

^{18 Ref} And the three break through the camp of the Philistines, and draw water from the well of Beth-Lehem, that `is' at the gate, and bear and bring in unto David, and David hath not been willing to drink it, and poureth it out to Jehovah,

^{19 Ref} and saith, `Far be it from me, by my God, to do this; the blood of these men do I drink with their lives? for with their lives they have brought it;' and he was not willing to drink it; these `things' did the three mighty ones.
