Battles against Pelishti giants

2 Sam 21:15–22

15 The Pelishtim started attacking Yisrael (Israel) again, and David and his men went down towards the coast and fought back, but David became exhausted. 16 The Pelishtim had a champion named Yishbi-Benov who was a descendant of giants. He wore new armour and his bronze spear weighed over three kilograms. He intended to kill David 17 but Tseruyah’s son Avishay helped David, and he struck the Pelishti and killed him. Then, David’s men made a decision, saying, “You won’t go out to battle with us anymore because we don’t want Yisrael’s lamp to be extinguished.”[ref]

18 Some time after that, there was another battle with the Pelishtim at Gov, and Sibkay (the Hushati) killed Saf who was another descendant of the giants.

19 Then in another battle with the Pelishtim at Gov, Elhanan (son of Ya’are-Oregim, from Beyt-Lehem (Bethlehem)) killed Galyat (Goliath) the Giti even though his spear handle was like a weaver’s beam.

20 In a different battle in Gat, there was a fierce man there with six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot who was also a descendant of the giants, 21 but when he taunted Yisrael, Yonatan (Jonathan) (son of David’s brother Shimeah) killed him. 22 Those four men were descendants of the giants in Gat, but they were killed by David and his men.

1 Chr 20:4–8

4 Some time later, war broke out with the Pelishtim at Gezer, then Sibkay the Hushati struck down Sipay, from the descendants of the Refaim, and they were subdued.

5 Then there was another battle with the Pelishtim, and Yair’s son Elhanan killed Lahmi the brother of Galyat (Goliath)[ref] the Giti (that is, from Gat), even though his spear shaft was as thick as the beam of a weaver’s loom. 6 There was also war at Gat, where there was a very tall man with six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot, who was also a descendant of Rafa. 7 When he insulted Yisrael (Israel), Shimea’s son Yonatan (Jonathan) killed him. (Shimea was one of David’s older brothers.)

8 Those were the descendants of Rafa from Gat who were killed by David and his men.
