Joshua 11:21-22
21And Joshua came at that time and cut off athe Anakim from the hill country, from Hebron, from Debir, from Anab, and from all the hill country of Judah, and from all the hill country of Israel. Joshua devoted them to destruction with their cities. 22There was none of the Anakim left in the land of the people of Israel. Only in Gaza, bin Gath, and in Ashdod did some remain.2 Samuel 23:16-22
16Then the three mighty men broke through the camp of the Philistines and drew water out of the well of Bethlehem that was by the gate and carried and brought it to David. But he would not drink of it. He poured it out to the Lord 17and said, “Far be it from me, O Lord, that I should do this. Shall I drink cthe blood of the men who went at the risk of their lives?” Therefore he would not drink it. These things the three mighty men did.18Now Abishai, the brother of Joab, the son of Zeruiah, was chief of the thirty. ▼

of Moab. He also went down and struck down a lion in a pit on a day when snow had fallen. 21And he struck down an Egyptian, a handsome man. The Egyptian had a spear in his hand, but Benaiah went down to him with a staff and snatched the spear out of the Egyptian’s hand and killed him with his own spear. 22These things did Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, and won a name beside the three mighty men. Job 18:16
16His lroots dry up beneath,and his branches mwither above.
Isaiah 5:24
24 Therefore, nas the tongue of fire devours the stubble,and as dry grass sinks down in the flame,
so otheir root will be pas rottenness,
and their blossom go up like dust;
for they have qrejected the law of the Lord of hosts,
and have rdespised the word of the Holy One of Israel.
