14 And David was then staying in the stronghold, and the princes of the Philistines were encamped in Bethlehem. 15 And David longed for water and said, O that one would give me a drink of water from the great well which is in the city of Beth-lehem! 16 So the three valiant men broke through the camp of the Philistines and drew water out of the great well which is in the city of Beth-lehem, and took it and brought it to David; but he would not drink of it, but poured it out before the LORD. 17 And he said, Far be it from me, on account of the LORD, that I should do this; because these men went at the risk of their lives. Therefore he would not drink it. These things did these three valiant men. 2 Samuel 23:14-17, Lamsa Bible. Public domain.
