13 He was with David in Pasdammim, when the Philistines were gathered to that place for battle. Now the field of that region was full of barley, but the people had fled from the face of the Philistines.
14 These men stood in the midst of the field, and they defended it. And when they had struck down the Philistines, the Lord gave a great salvation to his people.
15 Then three from the thirty leaders descended to the rock where David was, to the cave of Adullam, when the Philistines had made camp in the Valley of the Rephaim.
16 Now David was in a stronghold, and a garrison of the Philistines was in Bethlehem.
17 And then David desired and said, 'O if only someone would give me water from the well of Bethlehem, which is at the gate!'
