< 歷代志上 12 >

1 大衛因怕基士的兒子掃羅,躲在洗革拉的時候,有勇士到他那裏幫助他打仗。
Now these [are] they that came to David to Ziklag, while he yet kept himself close because of Saul the son of Kish: and they [were] among the mighty men, helpers of the war.
2 他們善於拉弓,能用左右兩手甩石射箭,都是便雅憫人掃羅的族弟兄。
[They were] armed with bows, and could use both the right hand and the left in [hurling] stones, and [shooting] arrows from a bow, [even] of Saul's brethren of Benjamin.
3 為首的是亞希以謝,其次是約阿施,都是基比亞人示瑪的兒子。還有亞斯瑪威的兒子耶薛和毗力,又有比拉迦,並亞拿突人耶戶,
The chief [was] Ahiezer, then Joash, the sons of Shemaah the Gibeathite; and Jeziel, and Pelet, the sons of Azmaveth; and Berachah, and Jehu the Antothite,
4 基遍人以實買雅(他在三十人中是勇士,管理他們),且有耶利米、雅哈悉、約哈難,和基得拉人約撒拔、
And Ismaiah the Gibeonite, a mighty man among the thirty, and over the thirty; and Jeremiah, and Jahaziel, and Johanan, and Josabad the Gederathite,

7 基多人耶羅罕的兒子猶拉和西巴第雅。
And Joelah, and Zebadiah, the sons of Jeroham of Gedor.
8 迦得支派中有人到曠野的山寨投奔大衛,都是大能的勇士,能拿盾牌和槍的戰士。他們的面貌好像獅子,快跑如同山上的鹿。
And of the Gadites there separated themselves to David in the hold in the wilderness men of might, [and] men of war [fit] for the battle, that could handle shield and buckler, whose faces [were like] the faces of lions, and [were] as swift as the roes upon the mountains;
9 第一以薛,第二俄巴底雅,第三以利押,
Ezer the first, Obadiah the second, Eliab the third,
10 第四彌施瑪拿,第五耶利米,

11 第六亞太,第七以利業,
Attai the sixth, Eliel the seventh,
12 第八約哈難,第九以利薩巴,

14 這都是迦得人中的軍長,至小的能抵一百人,至大的能抵一千人。
These [were] of the sons of Gad, captains of the host: one of the least [was] over a hundred, and the greatest over a thousand.
15 正月,約旦河水漲過兩岸的時候,他們過河,使一切住平原的人東奔西逃。
These [are] they that went over Jordan in the first month, when it had overflowed all its banks; and they put to flight all [them] of the valleys, [both] towards the east, and towards the west.
16 又有便雅憫和猶大人到山寨大衛那裏。
And there came of the children of Benjamin and Judah to the hold to David.
17 大衛出去迎接他們,對他們說:「你們若是和和平平地來幫助我,我心就與你們相契;你們若是將我這無罪的人賣在敵人手裏,願我們列祖的上帝察看責罰。」
And David went out to meet them, and answered and said to them, If ye have come peaceably to me to help me, my heart shall be knit to you: but if [ye have come] to betray me to my enemies, seeing [there is] no wrong in my hands, the God of our fathers look [on it], and rebuke [it].
18 那時上帝的靈感動那三十個勇士的首領亞瑪撒,他就說: 大衛啊,我們是歸於你的! 耶西的兒子啊,我們是幫助你的! 願你平平安安, 願幫助你的也都平安! 因為你的上帝幫助你。 大衛就收留他們,立他們作軍長。
Then the spirit came upon Amasai, [who was] chief of the captains, [and he said], Thine [are we], David, and on thy side, thou son of Jesse: peace, peace [be] to thee, and peace [be] to thy helpers; for thy God helpeth thee. Then David received them, and made them captains of the band.
19 大衛從前與非利士人同去,要與掃羅爭戰,有些瑪拿西人來投奔大衛,他們卻沒有幫助非利士人;因為非利士人的首領商議,打發他們回去,說:「恐怕大衛拿我們的首級,歸降他的主人掃羅。」
And there fell [some] of Manasseh to David, when he came with the Philistines against Saul to battle: but they helped them not: for the lords of the Philistines upon advisement sent him away, saying, He will fall to his master Saul to [the jeopardy of] our heads.
20 大衛往洗革拉去的時候,有瑪拿西人的千夫長押拿、約撒拔、耶疊、米迦勒、約撒拔、以利戶、洗勒太都來投奔他。
And as he went to Ziklag, there fell to him of Manasseh, Adnah, and Jozabad, and Jediael, and Michael, and Jozabad, and Elihu, and Zilthai, captains of the thousands that [were] of Manasseh.
21 這些人幫助大衛攻擊群賊;他們都是大能的勇士,且作軍長。
And they helped David against the band [of the rovers]: for they [were] all mighty men of valor, and were captains in the host.
22 那時天天有人來幫助大衛,以致成了大軍,如上帝的軍一樣。
For at [that] time day by day there came to David to help him, until [it was] a great host, like the host of God.
23 預備打仗的兵來到希伯崙見大衛,要照着耶和華的話將掃羅的國位歸與大衛。他們的數目如下:

And of the children of Issachar, [who were men] that had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do; the heads of them [were] two hundred; and all their brethren [were] at their command.
33 西布倫支派,能上陣用各樣兵器打仗、行伍整齊、不生二心的有五萬人。
Of Zebulun, such as went forth to battle, expert in war, with all instruments of war, fifty thousand, who could keep rank: [they were] not of double heart.

And on the other side of Jordan, of the Reubenites, and the Gadites, and of the half tribe of Manasseh, with all manner of instruments of war for the battle, a hundred and twenty thousand.
38 以上都是能守行伍的戰士,他們都誠心來到希伯崙,要立大衛作以色列的王。以色列其餘的人也都一心要立大衛作王。
All these men of war, that could keep rank, came with a perfect heart to Hebron, to make David king over all Israel: and all the rest also of Israel [were] of one heart to make David king.
39 他們在那裏三日,與大衛一同吃喝,因為他們的族弟兄給他們預備了。
And there they were with David three days, eating and drinking: for their brethren had prepared for them.
40 靠近他們的人以及以薩迦、西布倫、拿弗他利人將許多麵餅、無花果餅、乾葡萄、酒、油,用驢、駱駝、騾子、牛馱來,又帶了許多的牛和羊來,因為以色列人甚是歡樂。
Moreover, they that were nigh them, [even] to Issachar, and Zebulun, and Naphtali, brought bread on asses, and on camels, and on mules, and on oxen, [and] provision, meal, cakes of figs, and bunches of raisins, and wine, and oil, and oxen, and sheep abundantly: for [there was] joy in Israel.
