١ هَذِهِ أَسْمَاءُ زُعَمَاءِ الْعَائِلاتِ، قَادَةِ الأُلُوفِ وَالْمِئَاتِ وَضُبَّاطِهِمِ الْمُتَجَنِّدِينَ فِي خِدْمَةِ الْمَلِكِ فِي فِرَقِ الْجَيْشِ الْعَامِلَةِ والاحْتِيَاطِيَّةِ الاثْنَتَيْ عَشْرَةَ. وَقَدْ بَلَغَ عَدَدُ جُنُودِ كُلِّ فِرْقَةٍ أَرْبَعَةً وَعِشْرِينَ أَلْفاً أَخَذَتْ تَتَنَاوَبُ عَلَى الْخِدْمَةِ شَهْراً بَعْدَ شَهْرٍ عَلَى حَسَبِ عَدَدِ شُهُورِ السَّنَةِ.

23 But David did not take the number of them from twenty years old and under, because the LORD had said he would increase Israel like the stars of the sky.

٢٣ وَلَمْ يُجْرِ دَاوُدُ إِحْصَاءً لِمَنْ هُمْ فِي العِشْرِينَ مِنَ الْعُمْرِ فَمَا دُونَ، لأَنَّ الرَّبَّ وَعَدَ أَنْ يُكَثِّرَ إِسْرَائِيلَ فَيُصْبِحَ فِي عَدَدِ نُجُومِ السَّمَاءِ.

31 All these were the rulers of the property which was King David’s.

٣١ وَيَازِيرُ الهَاجِرِيُّ عَلَى مَاشِيَةِ الْغَنَمِ. كُلُّ هَؤُلاءِ كَانُوا الْمُشْرِفِينَ عَلَى أَمْلاكِ الْمَلِكِ دَاوُدَ.
