1 Evo onih što dođoše k Davidu u Siklag dok se još uklanjao od Kiševa sina Šaula i bili su mu među junacima pomagači u boju;
Now these are they that came to David to Ziklag, while he could not move about freely because of Saul the son of Kish: and they were among the mighty men, helpers of the 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 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.

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 of the Gadites there separated themselves to David in the strong 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 vojvoda Ezer, drugi Obadja, treći Eliab;

14 To su bile od Gadovih sinova vojne starješine, najmanji nad stotinom, a najveći nad tisućom.
These were of the sons of Gad, captains of the host: one of the least was over an hundred, 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.
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 toward the east, and toward the west.
16 Došli su i od Benjaminovih i Judinih sinova k Davidu u tvrđavu.
And there came of the children of Benjamin and Judah to the strong hold to David.
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 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 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 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 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 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 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.
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 Oni su pomagali Davidu protiv razbojničkih četa jer su svi bili hrabri junaci te su postali zapovjednici u njegovoj vojsci.
And they helped David against the band of the rovers: for they were all mighty men of valour, and were captains in the host.
22 Iz dana u dan odista su dolazili k Davidu da mu pomažu, sve dok njegov tabor ne postade divovski, kao Božji tabor.
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 Evo broja ljudi naoružanih za rat koji su došli k Davidu u Hebron da Šaulovo kraljevstvo prenesu na nj po Jahvinoj zapovijedi:
And these are the numbers of the bands that were ready armed to the war, and came to David to Hebron, to turn the kingdom of Saul to him, according to the word of the LORD.

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 Proveli su s Davidom tri dana, jedući i pijući. Braća sve spremiše za njih.
And there they were with David three days, eating and drinking: for their brethren had made preparation 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.
Moreover they that were near them, even to Issachar and Zebulun and Naphtali, brought bread on donkeys, and on camels, and on mules, and on oxen, and provisions, meal, cakes of figs, and bunches of raisins, and wine, and oil, and oxen, and sheep abundantly: for there was joy in Israel.
