1 Chronicles 11:15 In-Context

13 He was with David at Pasdammim, and there the Philistines were gathered together to battle, where there was an inheritance of land full of barley; and as the people fled from before the Philistines,

14 they set themselves in the midst of that portion and delivered it and slew the Philistines; and the LORD saved them by a great salvation.

15 Now three of the thirty principal ones went down to the rock to David, into the cave of Adullam; and the camp of the Philistines was pitched in the valley of Rephaim.

16 And David was then in the fortress, and the Philistines’ garrison was then at Bethlehem.

17 And David longed and said, Oh, that one would give me drink of the water of the well of Bethlehem, that is at the gate!
