Now these are they that came to David to Siceleg, while he yet fled from Saul the son of Cia, and they were most valiant and excellent warriors,
2 de var væbnet med Bue og øvet i Stenkast og Pileskydning baade med højre og venstre Haand; de hørte til Sauls Brødre, Benjaminiterne.
Bending the bow, and using either hand in hurling stones with slings, and shooting arrows: of the brethren of Saul of Benjamin.

8 Af Gaditerne sluttede nogle sig dygtige Krigere, øvede Krigsmænd, væbnet med Skjold og Spyd; de var som Løver at se paa og rappe som Gazellerne paa Bjergene.
From Gaddi also there went over to David, when he lay hid in the wilderness most valiant men, and excellent warriors, holding shield and spear: whose faces were like the faces of a lion, and they were swift like the roebucks on the mountains.

15 Det var dem, der gik over Jordan i den første Maaned, engang den overalt var gaaet over sine Bredder, og slog alle Dalboerne paa Flugt baade mod Øst og Vest.
These are they who passed over the Jordan in the first month, when it is used to how over its banks: and they put to flight all that dwelt in the valleys both toward the east and toward the west.
16 Engang kom nogle Benjaminiter og Judæere til David i Klippeborgen;
And there came also of the men of Benjamin, and of Juda to the hold, in which David abode.
17 David gik ud til dem, tog til Orde og sagde: »Hvis I kommer til mig i fredelig Hensigt, for at hjælpe mig, er jeg af Hjertet rede til at gøre fælles Sag med eder; men er det for at forraade mig til mine Fjender, skønt der ikke er Uret i mine Hænder, da se vore Fædres Gud til og straffe det!«
And David went out to meet them, and said: If you are come peaceably to me to help me, let my heart be joined to you: but if you plot against me for my enemies whereas I have no iniquity in my hands, let the God of our fathers see, and judge.
18 Saa iførte Aanden sig Amasaj, de tredives Anfører, og han sagde: »For dig, David, og med dig, Isajs Søn! Fred, Fred være med dig, og Fred med dine Hjælpere, thi dig hjælper din Gud!« Da tog David imod dem og satte dem i Spidsen for Krigerskaren.
But the spirit came upon Amasai the chief among thirty, and he said: We are thine, O David, and for thee, O son of Isai: peace, peace be to thee, and peace to thy helpers. For thy God helpeth thee. So David received them, and made them captains of the band.
19 Af Manasse gik nogle over til David. Det var, dengang han sammen med Filisterne drog i Kamp mod Saul, uden at han dog blev dem til Hjælp, fordi Filisternes Fyrster efter at have holdt Raadslagning sendte ham bort, idet de sagde: »Det koster vore Hoveder, hvis han gaar over til sin Herre Saul!«
And there were some of Manasses that went over to David, when he came with the Philistines against Saul to fight: but he did not fight with them: because the lords of the Philistines taking counsel sent him back, saying: With the danger of our heads he will return to his master Saul.
20 Da han saa drog til Ziklag, gik følgende Manassiter over til ham: Adna, Jozabad, Jediael, Mikael, Jozabad, Elihu og Zilletaj, der var Overhoveder for Slægter i Manasse;
So when he went back to Siceleg, there fled to him of Manasses, Ednas and Jozabad, and Jedihel, and Michael, and Ednas, and Jozabad, and Eliu, and Salathi, captains of thousands in Manasses.
21 de hjalp siden David imod Strejfskarerne, thi de var alle dygtige Krigere og blev Førere i Hæren.
These helped David against the rovers: for they were all most valiant men, and were made commanders in the army.
22 Der kom nemlig daglig Folk til David for at hjælpe ham, saa det til sidst blev en stor Hær, stor som Guds Hær.
Moreover day by day there came some to David to help him till they became a great number, like the army of God.
