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.
Some warriors from the tribe of Gad went over to David's side when he was at the stronghold in the desert. They were strong and experienced warriors, battle-hardened, experts in the use of shields and spears. Their faces looked as fierce as lions, and they ran as fast as gazelles in the mountains.
9 Deres Overhoved var Ezer, Obadja den anden, Eliab den tredje,
Ezer the was the leader, Obadiah (second), Eliab (third),
10 Masjmanna den fjerde, Jirmeja den femte,
Mishmannah (fourth), Jeremiah (fifth),

14 De var Anførere blandt Gaditerne; den mindste af dem tog det op med hundrede, den største med tusind.
These warriors from Gad were army officers. The least able of them was in charge of 100 men; the best was in charge of 1,000.
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 were ones who crossed the Jordan River in the first month of the year when it overflows its banks. They chased out all the people living in the valley, both to the east and to the west.
16 Engang kom nogle Benjaminiter og Judæere til David i Klippeborgen;
Some others from the tribes of Benjamin and Judah also came to join David at the stronghold.
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!«
David went out to meet them and told them, “If you've come in peace to help me, we can be friends. But if you've come to betray me to my enemies, even though I've done no wrong, then may the God of our fathers see what you're doing and condemn you.”
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.
Then the Spirit came upon Amasai, the leader of the Thirty. “We are yours, David, and we are with you, son of Jesse! May peace, prosperity, and success be yours and those who help you, for God is the one who is helping you.” So David allowed them to join him, and put them in charge of his bands of raiders.
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!«
Others came over to David's side from the tribe of Manasseh and joined him when he went with Philistines to attack Saul. However, the Philistine rulers eventually decided to send them away, saying to themselves, “It will cost us our heads if he deserts us and goes over 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;
The following is a list of the men from Manasseh who went over to David's side as he returned to Ziklag: Adnah, Jozabad, Jediael, Michael, Jozabad, Elihu, and Zillethai, leaders of thousands in Manasseh.
21 de hjalp siden David imod Strejfskarerne, thi de var alle dygtige Krigere og blev Førere i Hæren.
They helped David against raiders for they were all strong and experienced warriors and 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.
Men arrived daily to help David until he had a large army, like the army of God.

All these men came to Hebron dressed for battle, completely committed to making David king. All of Israel agreed that David should become king.
39 De blev der hos David i tre Dage og spiste og drak, thi deres Brødre havde forsynet dem;
They stayed three days there, eating and drinking together, for their relatives had provided them with supplies.

Their neighbors, even as far away as Issachar, Zebulun, and Naphtali, arrived bringing food on donkeys, camels, mules, and oxen. They had plenty of flour, fig cakes, bunches of raisins, wine, olive oil, cattle, and sheep, for Israel was so happy.
