1 Chronicles 12
1 Now these were the men who came to David at Ziklag, while he was still banished from the presence of Saul son of Kish (they were among the mighty men who helped him in battle;
Følgende er de, der kom til David i Ziklag, medens han måtte holde sig skjult for Saul, Kisj's Søn. De hørte til Heltene, som hjalp til i Kampen;
2 they were archers using both the right and left hands to sling stones and shoot arrows; and they were Saul’s kinsmen from Benjamin):
de var væbnet med Bue og øvet i Stenkast og Pileskydning både med højre og venstre Hånd; de hørte til Sauls Brødre, Benjaminiterne.
3 Ahiezer their chief and Joash, who were the sons of Shemaah the Gibeathite; Jeziel and Pelet, the sons of Azmaveth; Beracah; Jehu the Anathothite;
Deres Overhoved var Ahiezer; dernæst Joasj, Sjema'as Søn, fra Gibea, Jeziel og Pelet, Azmavets Sønner, Beraka, Jehu fra Anatot,
4 Ishmaiah the Gibeonite, a mighty man among the Thirty and a leader over the Thirty; Jeremiah, Jahaziel, Johanan, and Jozabad the Gederathite;
Jisjmaja fra Gibeon, en Helt blandt de tredive og Høvedsmand over de tredive, Jirme'ja, Jahaziel, Johanan, Jozabad fra Gedera,
5 Eluzai, Jerimoth, Bealiah, Shemariah, and Shephatiah the Haruphite;
El'uzaj, Jerimot, Bealja, Sjemarja, Sjefatja fra Harif,
6 Elkanah, Isshiah, Azarel, Joezer, and Jashobeam, who were Korahites;
Elkana, Jissjija, Azar'el, Jo'ezer og Jasjobam, Koraiterne,
7 and Joelah and Zebadiah, the sons of Jeroham from Gedor.
Joela og Zebadja, Sønner af Jeroham fra Gedor.
8 Some Gadites defected to David at his stronghold in the desert. They were mighty men of valor, trained for battle, experts with the shield and spear, whose faces were like the faces of lions and who were as swift as gazelles on the mountains:
Af Gaditerne slutfede nogle sig dygtige Krigere, øvede Krigsmænd, væbnet med Skjold og Spyd; de var som Løver at se på og rappe som Gazellerne på Bjergene.
9 Ezer the chief, Obadiah the second in command, Eliab the third,
Deres Overhoved var Ezer, Obadja den anden, Eliab den tredje,
10 Mishmannah the fourth, Jeremiah the fifth,
Masjmanna den fjerde, Jirmeja den femte,
11 Attai the sixth, Eliel the seventh,
Attaj den sjette, Eliel den syvende,
12 Johanan the eighth, Elzabad the ninth,
Johanan den ottende, Elzabad den niende,
13 Jeremiah the tenth, and Machbanai the eleventh.
Jirmeja den tiende, Makbannaj den ellevte.
14 These Gadites were army commanders, the least of whom was a match for a hundred, and the greatest for a thousand.
De var Anførere blandt Gaditerne; den mindste af dem tog det op med hundrede, den største med tusind.
15 These are the ones who crossed the Jordan in the first month when it was overflowing all its banks, and they put to flight all those in the valleys, both to the east and to the west.
Det var dem, der gik over Jordan i den første Måned, engang den overalt var gået over sine Bredder, og slog alle Dalboerne på Flugt både mod Øst og Vest.
16 Other Benjamites and some men from Judah also came to David in his stronghold.
Engang kom nogle Benjaminiter og Judæere til David i Klippeborgen;
17 And David went out to meet them, saying, “If you have come to me in peace to help me, my heart will be united with you; but if you have come to betray me to my enemies when my hands are free of violence, may the God of our fathers see it and judge you.”
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 forråde mig til mine Fjender, skønt der ikke er Uret i mine Hænder, da se vore Fædres Gud til og straffe det!"
18 Then the Spirit came upon Amasai, the chief of the Thirty, and he said: “We are yours, O David! We are with you, O son of Jesse! Peace, peace to you, and peace to your helpers, for your God helps you.” So David received them and made them leaders of his troops.
Så iførte Ånden 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.
19 Some from Manasseh defected to David when he went with the Philistines to fight against Saul. (They did not help the Philistines because the Philistine rulers consulted and sent David away, saying, “It will cost us our heads if he defects to his master Saul.”)
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 Rådslagning sendte ham bort, idet de sagde: "Det koster vore Hoveder, hvis han går over til sin Herre Saul!"
20 When David went to Ziklag, these men of Manasseh defected to him: Adnah, Jozabad, Jediael, Michael, Jozabad, Elihu, and Zillethai, chiefs of thousands in Manasseh.
Da han så drog til Ziklag, gik følgende Manassiter over til ham: Adna, Jozabad, Jediael, Mikael, Jozabad, Elibu og Zilletaj, der var Overhoveder for Slægter i Manasse;
21 They helped David against the raiders, for they were all mighty men of valor and commanders in the army.
de hjalp siden David imod Strejfskarerne, thi de var alle dygtige Krigere og blev Førere i Hæren.
22 For at that time men came to David day after day to help him, until he had a great army, like the army of God.
Der kom nemlig daglig Folk til David for at hjælpe ham, så det til sidst blev en stor Hær, stor som Guds Hær.
23 Now these are the numbers of men armed for battle who came to David at Hebron to turn Saul’s kingdom over to him, in accordance with the word of the LORD:
Følgende er Tallene på Førerne for de væbnede Krigere, der kom til David i Hebron for at gøre ham til Konge i Sauls Sted efter HERRENs Bud:
24 From Judah: 6,800 armed troops bearing shields and spears.

og Zadok, en ung, dygtig Kriger, med sit Fædrenehus, 22 Førere;
29 From Benjamin, the kinsmen of Saul: 3,000, most of whom had remained loyal to the house of Saul up to that time.

af Manasses halve Stamme 18.000 navngivne Mænd, der skulde gå hen og gøre David til Konge;
32 From Issachar, men who understood the times and knew what Israel should do: 200 chiefs with all their kinsmen at their command.
af Issakariterne, der forstod sig på Tiderne, så de skønnede, hvad Israel havde at gøre, 200 Førere og alle deres Brødre, der stod under dem;
33 From Zebulun: 50,000 fit for service, trained for battle with all kinds of weapons of war, who with one purpose were devoted to David.
af Zebulon 50.000, øvede Krigere, udrustet med alle Hånde Våben, med een Vilje rede til Kamp;
34 From Naphtali: 1,000 commanders, accompanied by 37,000 men with shield and spear.

37 And from east of the Jordan, from Reuben, Gad, and the half-tribe of Manasseh there: 120,000 armed with every kind of weapon of war.
fra den anden Side af Jordan, fra Rubeniterne, Gaditerne og Manasses halve Stamme, 120.000 Mænd med alle Hånde Krigsvåben.
38 All these men of war, arrayed for battle, came to Hebron fully determined to make David king over all Israel. And all the rest of the Israelites were of one mind to make David king.
Med helt Hjerte og rede til Kamp kom alle disse Krigere til Hebron for at gøre David til Konge over hele Israel; men også det øvrige Israel var endrægtigt med til at gøre David til Konge.
39 They spent three days there eating and drinking with David, for their relatives had provided for them.
De blev der hos David i tre Dage og spiste og drak, thi deres Brødre havde forsynet dem;
40 And their neighbors from as far away as Issachar, Zebulun, and Naphtali came bringing food on donkeys, camels, mules, and oxen—abundant supplies of flour, fig cakes and raisin cakes, wine and oil, oxen and sheep. Indeed, there was joy in Israel.
også de, der boede i deres Nærhed lige til Issakar, Zebulon og Naftali, bragte dem Levnedsmidler på Æsler, Kameler, Muldyr og Okser, Fødevarer af Mel, Figenkar, Rosinkager, Vin, Olie, Hornkvæg og Småkvæg i Mængde; thi der var Glæde i Israel.
