Young's Literal Translation 1862
| 23:1 | And these `are' the last words of David: -- `The affirmation of David son of Jesse -- And the affirmation of the man raised up -- Concerning the Anointed of the God of Jacob, And the Sweetness of the Songs of Israel: |
| 23:2 | The Spirit of Jehovah hath spoken by me, And His word `is' on my tongue. |
| 23:3 | He said -- the God of Israel -- to me, He spake -- the Rock of Israel: He who is ruling over man `is' righteous, He is ruling in the fear of God. |
| 23:4 | And as the light of morning he riseth, A morning sun -- no clouds! By the shining, by the rain, Tender grass of the earth! |
| 23:5 | For -- not so `is' my house with God; For -- a covenant age-during He made with me, Arranged in all things, and kept; For -- all my salvation, and all desire, For -- He hath not caused `it' to spring up. |
| 23:6 | As to the worthless -- As a thorn driven away `are' all of them, For -- not by hand are they taken; |
| 23:7 | And the man who cometh against them Is filled with iron and the staff of a spear, And with fire they are utterly burnt In the cessation.' |
| 23:8 | These `are' the names of the mighty ones whom David hath: sitting in the seat `is' the Tachmonite, head of the captains -- he `is' Adino, who hardened himself against eight hundred -- wounded at one time. |
| 23:9 | And after him `is' Eleazar son of Dodo, son of Ahohi, of the three mighty men with David; in their exposing themselves among the Philistines -- they have been gathered there to battle, and the men of Israel go up -- |
| 23:10 | he hath arisen, and smiteth among the Philistines till that his hand hath been weary, and his hand cleaveth unto the sword, and Jehovah worketh a great salvation on that day, and the people turn back after him only to strip off. |
| 23:11 | And after him `is' Shammah son of Agee the Hararite, and the Philistines are gathered into a company, and there is there a portion of the field full of lentiles, and the people hath fled from the presence of the Philistines, |
| 23:12 | and he stationeth himself in the midst of the portion, and delivereth it, and smiteth the Philistines, and Jehovah worketh a great salvation. |
| 23:13 | And three of the thirty heads go down and come unto the harvest, unto David, unto the cave of Adullam, and the company of the Philistines are encamping in the valley of Rephaim, |
| 23:14 | and David `is' then in a fortress, and the station of the Philistines `is' then in Beth-Lehem, |
| 23:15 | and David longeth and saith, `Who doth give me a drink of the water of the well of Beth-Lehem, which `is' by the gate?' |
| 23:16 | And the three mighty ones cleave through the camp of the Philistines, and draw water out of the well of Beth-Lehem, which `is' by the gate, and take `it' up, and bring in unto David; and he was not willing to drink it, and poureth it out to Jehovah, |
| 23:17 | and saith, `Far be it from me, O Jehovah, to do this; is it the blood of the men who are going with their lives?' and he was not willing to drink it; these `things' did the three mighty ones. |
| 23:18 | And Abishai brother of Joab, son of Zeruiah, he `is' head of three, and he is lifting up his spear against three hundred -- wounded, and he hath a name among three. |
| 23:19 | Of the three is he not the honoured? and he becometh their head; and unto the `first' three he hath not come. |
| 23:20 | And Benaiah son of Jehoiada (son of a man of valour, great in deeds from Kabzeel), he hath smitten two lion-like men of Moab, and he hath gone down and smitten the lion in the midst of the pit in a day of snow. |
| 23:21 | And he hath smitten the Egyptian man, a man of appearance, and in the hand of the Egyptian `is' a spear, and he goeth down unto him with a rod, and taketh violently away the spear out of the hand of the Egyptian, and slayeth him with his own spear. |
| 23:22 | These `things' hath Benaiah son of Jehoiada done, and hath a name among three mighty. |
| 23:23 | Of the thirty he is honoured, and unto the three he came not; and David setteth him over his guard. |
| 23:24 | Asahel brother of Joab `is' of the thirty; Elhanan son of Dodo of Beth-Lehem. |
| 23:25 | Shammah the Harodite, Elika the Harodite, |
| 23:26 | Helez the Paltite, Ira son of Ikkesh the Tekoite, |
| 23:27 | Abiezer the Annethothite, Mebunnai the Hushathite, |

Young's Literal Translation 1862
Young's Literal Translation is a translation of the Bible into English, published in 1862. The translation was made by Robert Young, compiler of Young's Analytical Concordance to the Bible and Concise Critical Comments on the New Testament. Young used the Textus Receptus and the Majority Text as the basis for his translation. He wrote in the preface to the first edition, "It has been no part of the Translator's plan to attempt to form a New Hebrew or Greek Text--he has therefore somewhat rigidly adhered to the received ones."
