2 Samuel23:15

15 And David longed, and said, O that one would give me drink of the water of the well of Bethlehem , which is by the gate!

Being hot and thirsty, he expresseth how acceptable a draught of that Water would be to him; as is usual with men to do in such cases: but was far from desiring, or expecting that any of his men should hazard their Lives to procure it, as appears from ver. 17.
