Now these are the men who came to David at Ziklag, while he was still shut up, because of Saul, the son of Kish; they were among the strong men, his helpers in war.
2 umjeli su rukovati lukom i desnicom i ljevicom i znali se služiti kamenjem i strijelama. Između Šaulove braće, Benjaminovaca:
They were armed with bows, and were able to send stones, and arrows from the bow, with right hand or left: they were Saul's brothers, of Benjamin.

8 Neki su Gadovci prešli k Davidu u tvrđavu u pustinju, hrabri junaci, ratnici vješti boju, naoružani štitom i kopljem; lica im bijahu kao lavovska, a brzi bijahu kao gazele po gorama:
And some of the Gadites, siding with David, went to his strong place in the waste land, great and strong men, trained for war, expert in the use of arms, whose faces were like the faces of lions, and they were quick-footed like roes on the mountains;
9 vojvoda Ezer, drugi Obadja, treći Eliab;
Ezer their chief, Obadiah the second, Eliab the third,
10 četvrti Mišmana, peti Jeremija,

12 osmi Johanan, deveti Elzabad,

14 To su bile od Gadovih sinova vojne starješine, najmanji nad stotinom, a najveći nad tisućom.
These Gadites were captains of the army; the least of them was captain over a hundred men, and the greatest over a thousand.
15 To su oni koji su prvoga mjeseca prešli preko Jordana kad se razlio preko svih svojih obala i koji su rastjerali sve stanovnike iz dubokih dolina na istok i na zapad.
It was they who went over Jordan in the first month, when the river was overflowing, and put to flight all the people of the valleys, to the east and to the west.
16 Došli su i od Benjaminovih i Judinih sinova k Davidu u tvrđavu.
And some of the children of Benjamin and Judah came to David in his strong place.
17 David je izašao pred njih i, progovorivši, rekao im: “Ako dolazite s mirom k meni da mi pomognete, moje će se srce ujediniti s vama; ako li ste došli da me izdate mojim neprijateljima, neka Bog naših otaca vidi i neka osudi, jer nema nepravde na mojim rukama!”
And David went out to them, and said to them, If you have come in peace to give me help, my heart will be united with yours; but if you have come to give me up to those who would take my life, though my hands are clean from wrongdoing, then may the God of our fathers see it and give you punishment.
18 Tada duh obuze Amasaja, vojvodu nad tridesetoricom, i on reče: “Tebi, Davide! S tobom, sine Jišajev, mir! Mir s tobom, mir s onim tko ti pomaže, jer tvoj pomoćnik jest tvoj Bog!” Tako ih je David primio i postavio ih među vojvode nad četama.
Then the spirit came on Amasai, who was chief of the captains, and he said, We are yours, David, we are on your side, O son of Jesse: may peace be with you and peace be with your helpers; for God is your helper. Then David took them into his army and made them captains of the band.
19 Od Manašeovih su sinova neki prešli k Davidu kad je išao s Filistejcima na Šaula u boj, ali im nije pomogao, jer su ga filistejski knezovi, dobro promislivši, otpustili govoreći: “Mogao bi prijeći k svome gospodaru Šaulu, a to bi nas stajalo glava.”
And some of the men of Manasseh came over to David, when he went with the Philistines to the war against Saul, but he gave them no help: for the lords of the Philistines, after discussion, sent him away, saying, He will go back to his master Saul, at the price of our lives.
20 Kad se, dakle, vraćao u Siklag, prešli su k njemu od Manašeova plemena: Adna, Jozabad, Jedael, Mihael, Jozabad, Elihu i Siltaj, glavari tisućnici u Manašeovu plemenu.
Then when he went back to Ziklag, there came over to him, of the men of Manasseh, Adnah and Jozabad and Jediael and Michael and Jozabad and Elihu and Zillethai, captains of thousands from the armies of Manasseh.
21 Oni su pomagali Davidu protiv razbojničkih četa jer su svi bili hrabri junaci te su postali zapovjednici u njegovoj vojsci.
And they gave David help against the armed bands, for they were all great men of war, and captains in the army.
22 Iz dana u dan odista su dolazili k Davidu da mu pomažu, sve dok njegov tabor ne postade divovski, kao Božji tabor.
And from day to day more supporters came to David, till he had a great army like the army of God.

For three days they were there with David, feasting at his table, for their brothers had made ready food for them.
40 Njihovi su najbliži susjedi, sve do Jisakara, Zebuluna i Naftalija, donosili hranu na magarcima, devama i mazgama, a na volovima jela: brašna, smokvenih kolača, suha grožđa, vina, ulja, krupne i sitne stoke izobila, jer je bilo veselje u Izraelu.
