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;
hii quoque venerunt ad David in Siceleg cum adhuc fugeret Saul filium Cis qui erant fortissimi et egregii pugnatores
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):
tendentes arcum et utraque manu fundis saxa iacientes et dirigentes sagittas de fratribus Saul ex Beniamin
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;
princeps Ahiezer et Ioas filii Sammaa Gabathites et Iazihel et Phallet filii Azmoth et Baracha et Ieu Anathothites
4 Ishmaiah the Gibeonite, a mighty man among the Thirty and a leader over the Thirty; Jeremiah, Jahaziel, Johanan, and Jozabad the Gederathite;
Samaias quoque Gabaonites fortissimus inter triginta et super triginta Hieremias et Iezihel et Iohanan et Iezbad Gaderothites
5 Eluzai, Jerimoth, Bealiah, Shemariah, and Shephatiah the Haruphite;
Eluzai et Ierimuth et Baalia et Samaria et Saphatia Aruphites
6 Elkanah, Isshiah, Azarel, Joezer, and Jashobeam, who were Korahites;
Helcana et Iesia et Azrahel et Ioezer et Iesbaam de Careim
7 and Joelah and Zebadiah, the sons of Jeroham from Gedor.
Ioeela quoque et Zabadia filii Ieroam de 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:
sed et de Gaddi transfugerunt ad David cum lateret in deserto viri robustissimi et pugnatores optimi tenentes clypeum et hastam facies eorum quasi facies leonis et veloces quasi capreae in montibus
9 Ezer the chief, Obadiah the second in command, Eliab the third,
Ezer princeps Obdias secundus Eliab tertius
10 Mishmannah the fourth, Jeremiah the fifth,
Masmana quartus Hieremias quintus
11 Attai the sixth, Eliel the seventh,
Hetthi sextus Helihel septimus
12 Johanan the eighth, Elzabad the ninth,
Iohanan octavus Helzebad nonus
13 Jeremiah the tenth, and Machbanai the eleventh.
Hieremias decimus Bachannai undecimus
14 These Gadites were army commanders, the least of whom was a match for a hundred, and the greatest for a thousand.
hii de filiis Gad principes exercitus novissimus centum militibus praeerat et maximus mille
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.
isti sunt qui transierunt Iordanem mense primo quando inundare consuevit super ripas suas et omnes fugaverunt qui morabantur in vallibus ad orientalem plagam et occidentalem
16 Other Benjamites and some men from Judah also came to David in his stronghold.
venerunt autem et de Beniamin et de Iuda ad praesidium in quo morabatur David
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.”
egressusque est David obviam eis et ait si pacifice venistis ad me ut auxiliemini mihi cor meum iungatur vobis si autem insidiamini mihi pro adversariis meis cum ego iniquitatem in manibus non habeam videat Deus patrum nostrorum et iudicet
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.
spiritus vero induit Amessai principem inter triginta et ait tui sumus o David et tecum fili Isai pax pax tibi et pax adiutoribus tuis te enim adiuvat Deus tuus suscepit ergo eos David et constituit principes turmae
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.”)
porro de Manasse transfugerunt ad David quando veniebat cum Philisthim adversum Saul ut pugnaret et non dimicavit cum eis quia inito consilio remiserunt eum principes Philisthinorum dicentes periculo capitis nostri revertetur ad dominum suum 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.
quando igitur reversus est in Siceleg transfugerunt ad eum de Manasse Ednas et Iozabad et Iedihel et Michahel et Iozabad et Heliu et Salathi principes milium in Manasse
21 They helped David against the raiders, for they were all mighty men of valor and commanders in the army.
hii praebuerunt auxilium David adversum latrunculos omnes enim erant viri fortissimi et facti sunt principes in exercitu
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.
sed et per singulos dies veniebant ad David ad auxiliandum ei usque dum fieret grandis numerus quasi exercitus Dei
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:
iste quoque est numerus principum exercitus qui venerunt ad David cum esset in Hebron ut transferrent regnum Saul ad eum iuxta verbum Domini
24 From Judah: 6,800 armed troops bearing shields and spears.
filii Iuda portantes clypeum et hastam sex milia octingenti expediti ad proelium
25 From Simeon: 7,100 mighty men of valor, ready for battle.
de filiis Symeon virorum fortissimorum ad pugnandum septem milia centum
26 From Levi: 4,600,
de filiis Levi quattuor milia sescenti
27 including Jehoiada, leader of the house of Aaron, with 3,700 men,
Ioiada quoque princeps de stirpe Aaron et cum eo tria milia septingenti
28 and Zadok, a mighty young man of valor, with 22 commanders from his own family.
Sadoc etiam puer egregiae indolis et domus patris eius principes viginti duo
29 From Benjamin, the kinsmen of Saul: 3,000, most of whom had remained loyal to the house of Saul up to that time.
de filiis autem Beniamin fratribus Saul tria milia magna enim pars eorum adhuc sequebatur domum Saul
30 From Ephraim: 20,800 mighty men of valor, famous among their own clans.
porro de filiis Ephraim viginti milia octingenti fortissimi robore viri nominati in cognationibus suis
31 From the half-tribe of Manasseh: 18,000 designated by name to come and make David king.
et ex dimidia parte tribus Manasse decem et octo milia singuli per nomina sua venerunt ut constituerent regem David
32 From Issachar, men who understood the times and knew what Israel should do: 200 chiefs with all their kinsmen at their command.
de filiis quoque Isachar viri eruditi qui norant singula tempora ad praecipiendum quid facere deberet Israhel principes ducenti omnis autem reliqua tribus eorum consilium sequebatur
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.
porro de Zabulon qui egrediebantur ad proelium et stabant in acie instructi armis bellicis quinquaginta milia venerunt in auxilium non in corde duplici
34 From Naphtali: 1,000 commanders, accompanied by 37,000 men with shield and spear.
et de Nepthali principes mille et cum eis instructa clypeo et hasta triginta septem milia
35 From Dan: 28,600 prepared for battle.
de Dan etiam praeparata ad proelium viginti octo milia sescentorum
36 From Asher: 40,000 fit for service, prepared for battle.
et de Aser egredientes ad pugnam et in acie provocantes quadraginta milia
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.
trans Iordanem autem de filiis Ruben et Gad et dimidia parte tribus Manasse instructa armis bellicis centum viginti milia
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.
omnes isti viri bellatores et expediti ad pugnandum corde perfecto venerunt in Hebron ut constituerent regem David super universum Israhel sed et omnes reliqui ex Israhel uno corde erant ut rex fieret David
39 They spent three days there eating and drinking with David, for their relatives had provided for them.
fueruntque ibi apud David tribus diebus comedentes et bibentes praeparaverunt enim eis fratres sui
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.
sed et qui iuxta eos erant usque ad Isachar et Zabulon et Nepthalim adferebant panes in asinis et camelis et mulis et bubus ad vescendum farinam palatas uvam passam vinum oleum boves arietes ad omnem copiam gaudium quippe erat in Israhel
