1 Chronicles 12

1 Now these are the men who came to David at Ziklag, while he was still shut up, because of Saul, the son of Kish; they were among the strong men, his helpers in war.

١ وَهَؤُلَاءِ هُمُ ٱلَّذِينَ جَاءُوا إِلَى دَاوُدَ إِلَى صِقْلَغَ وَهُوَ بَعْدُ مَحْجُوزٌ عَنْ وَجْهِ شَاوُلَ بْنِ قَيْسَ، وَهُمْ مِنَ ٱلْأَبْطَالِ مُسَاعِدُونَ فِي ٱلْحَرْبِ،

2 They were armed with bows, and were able to send stones, and arrows from the bow, with right hand or left: they were Saul's brothers, of Benjamin.

٢ نَازِعُونَ فِي ٱلْقِسِيِّ، يَرْمُونَ ٱلْحِجَارَةَ وَٱلسِّهَامَ مِنَ ٱلْقِسِيِّ بِٱلْيَمِينِ وَٱلْيَسَارِ، مِنْ إِخْوَةِ شَاوُلَ مِنْ بَنْيَامِينَ.

3 Ahiezer was their chief, then Joash, the sons of Shemaah the Gibeathite; and Jeziel and Pelet, the sons of Azmaveth; and Beracah and Jehu the Anathothite;

٣ ٱلرَّأْسُ أَخِيعَزَرُ ثُمَّ يُوآشُ ٱبْنَا شَمَاعَةَ ٱلْجِبْعِيُّ، وَيَزُوئِيلُ وَفَالَطُ ٱبْنَا عَزْمُوتَ، وَبَرَاخَةُ وَيَاهُو ٱلْعَنَاثُوثِيُّ،

4 And Ishmaiah the Gibeonite, a great man among the thirty, and their chief; and Jeremiah and Jehaziel and Johanan and Jozabad the Gederathite;

٤ وَيَشْمَعْيَا ٱلْجِبْعُونِيُّ ٱلْبَطَلُ بَيْنَ ٱلثَّلَاثِينَ وَعَلَى ٱلثَّلَاثِينَ، وَيَرْمِيَا وَيَحْزِيئِيلُ وَيُوحَانَانُ وَيُوزَابَادُ ٱلْجَدِيرِيُّ،

5 Eluzai and Jerimoth and Bealiah and Shemariah and Shephatiah the Haruphite;

٥ وَإِلْعُوزَايُ وَيَرِيمُوثُ وَبَعْلِيَا وَشَمَرْيَا وَشَفَطْيَا ٱلْحَرُوفِيُّ،

6 Elkanah and Isshiah and Azarel and Joezer and Jashobeam, the Korahites;

٦ وَأَلْقَانَةُ وَيَشِيَّا وَعَزْرِيئِيلُ وَيُوعَزَرُ وَيَشُبْعَامُ ٱلْقُورَحِيُّونَ،

7 And Joelah and Zebadiah, the sons of Jeroham of Gedor.

٧ وَيُوعِيلَةُ وَزَبَدْيَا ٱبْنَا يَرُوحَامَ مِنْ جَدُورَ.

8 And some of the Gadites, siding with David, went to his strong place in the waste land, great and strong men, trained for war, expert in the use of arms, whose faces were like the faces of lions, and they were quick-footed like roes on the mountains;

٨ وَمِنَ ٱلْجَادِيِّينَ ٱنْفَصَلَ إِلَى دَاوُدَ إِلَى ٱلْحِصْنِ فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ جَبَابِرَةُ ٱلْبَأْسِ رِجَالُ جَيْشٍ لِلْحَرْبِ، صَافُّو أَتْرَاسٍ وَرِمَاحٍ، وُجُوهُهُمْ كَوُجُوهِ ٱلْأُسُودِ، وَهُمْ كَٱلظَّبْيِ عَلَى ٱلْجِبَالِ فِي ٱلسُّرْعَةِ:

9 Ezer their chief, Obadiah the second, Eliab the third,

٩ عَازَرُ ٱلرَّأْسُ، وَعُوبَدْيَا ٱلثَّانِي، وَأَلِيآبُ ٱلثَّالِثُ،

10 Mishmannah the fourth, Jeremiah the fifth,

١٠ وَمِشْمِنَّةُ ٱلرَّابِعُ، وَيَرْمِيَا ٱلْخَامِسُ،

11 Attai the sixth, Eliel the seventh,

١١ وَعَتَّايُ ٱلسَّادِسُ، وَإِيلِيئِيلُ ٱلسَّابِعُ،

12 Johanan the eighth, Elzabad the ninth,

١٢ وَيُوحَانَانُ ٱلثَّامِنُ، وَأَلْزَابَادُ ٱلتَّاسِعُ

13 Jeremiah the tenth, Machbannai the eleventh.

١٣ وَيَرْمِيَا ٱلْعَّاشِرُ، وَمَخْبَنَّايُ ٱلْحَادِي عَشَرَ.

14 These Gadites were captains of the army; the least of them was captain over a hundred men, and the greatest over a thousand.

١٤ هَؤُلَاءِ مِنْ بَنِي جَادَ رُؤُوسُ ٱلْجَيْشِ. صَغِيرُهُمْ لِمِئَةٍ، وَٱلْكَبِيرُ لِأَلْفٍ.

15 It was they who went over Jordan in the first month, when the river was overflowing, and put to flight all the people of the valleys, to the east and to the west.

١٥ هَؤُلَاءِ هُمُ ٱلَّذِينَ عَبَرُوا ٱلْأُرْدُنَّ فِي ٱلشَّهْرِ ٱلْأَوَّلِ وَهُوَ مُمْتَلِئٌ إِلَى جَمِيعِ شُطُوطِهِ وَهَزَمُوا كُلَّ أَهْلِ ٱلْأَوْدِيَةِ شَرْقًا وَغَرْبًا.

16 And some of the children of Benjamin and Judah came to David in his strong place.

١٦ وَجَاءَ قَوْمٌ مِنْ بَنِي بَنْيَامِينَ وَيَهُوذَا إِلَى ٱلْحِصْنِ إِلَى دَاوُدَ.

17 And David went out to them, and said to them, If you have come in peace to give me help, my heart will be united with yours; but if you have come to give me up to those who would take my life, though my hands are clean from wrongdoing, then may the God of our fathers see it and give you punishment.

١٧ فَخَرَجَ دَاوُدُ لِٱسْتِقْبَالِهِمْ وَأَجَابَ وَقَالَ لَهُمْ: «إِنْ كُنْتُمْ قَدْ جِئْتُمْ بِسَلَامٍ إِلَيَّ لِتُسَاعِدُونِي، يَكُونُ لِي مَعَكُمْ قَلْبٌ وَاحِدٌ. وَإِنْ كَانَ لِكَيْ تَدْفَعُونِي لِعَدُوِّي وَلَا ظُلْمَ فِي يَدَيَّ، فَلْيَنْظُرْ إِلَهُ آبَائِنَا وَيُنْصِفْ».

18 Then the spirit came on Amasai, who was chief of the captains, and he said, We are yours, David, we are on your side, O son of Jesse: may peace be with you and peace be with your helpers; for God is your helper. Then David took them into his army and made them captains of the band.

١٨ فَحَلَّ ٱلرُّوحُ عَلَى عَمَاسَايَ رَأْسِ ٱلثَّوَالِثِ فَقَالَ: «لَكَ نَحْنُ يَا دَاوُدُ، وَمَعَكَ نَحْنُ يَا ٱبْنَ يَسَّى. سَلَامٌ سَلَامٌ لَكَ، وَسَلَامٌ لِمُسَاعِدِيكَ. لِأَنَّ إِلَهَكَ مُعِينُكَ». فَقَبِلَهُمْ دَاوُدُ وَجَعَلَهُمْ رُؤُوسَ ٱلْجُيُوشِ.

19 And some of the men of Manasseh came over to David, when he went with the Philistines to the war against Saul, but he gave them no help: for the lords of the Philistines, after discussion, sent him away, saying, He will go back to his master Saul, at the price of our lives.

١٩ وَسَقَطَ إِلَى دَاوُدَ بَعْضٌ مِنْ مَنَسَّى حِينَ جَاءَ مَعَ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ ضِدَّ شَاوُلَ لِلْقِتَالِ وَلَمْ يُسَاعِدُوهُمْ، لِأَنَّ أَقْطَابَ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ أَرْسَلُوهُ بِمَشُورَةٍ قَائِلِينَ: «إِنَّمَا بِرُؤُوسِنَا يَسْقُطُ إِلَى سَيِّدِهِ شَاوُلَ».

20 Then when he went back to Ziklag, there came over to him, of the men of Manasseh, Adnah and Jozabad and Jediael and Michael and Jozabad and Elihu and Zillethai, captains of thousands from the armies of Manasseh.

٢٠ حِينَ ٱنْطَلَقَ إِلَى صِقْلَغَ سَقَطَ إِلَيْهِ مِنْ مَنَسَّى عَدْنَاحُ وَيُوزَابَادُ وَيَدِيعَئِيلُ وَمِيخَائِيلُ وَيُوزَابَادُ وَأَلِيهُو وَصِلْتَايُ رُؤُوسُ أُلُوفِ مَنَسَّى.

21 And they gave David help against the armed bands, for they were all great men of war, and captains in the army.

٢١ وَهُمْ سَاعَدُوا دَاوُدَ عَلَى ٱلْغُزَاةِ لِأَنَّهُمْ جَمِيعًا جَبَابِرَةُ بَأْسٍ، وَكَانُوا رُؤَسَاءَ فِي ٱلْجَيْشِ.

22 And from day to day more supporters came to David, till he had a great army like the army of God.

٢٢ لِأَنَّهُ وَقْتَئِذٍ أَتَى أُنَاسٌ إِلَى دَاوُدَ يَوْمًا فَيَوْمًا لِمُسَاعَدَتِهِ حَتَّى صَارُوا جَيْشًا عَظِيمًا كَجَيْشِ ٱللهِ.

23 These are the numbers of the chiefs of the armed men, ready for war, who came to David at Hebron, to give the kingdom of Saul into his hands, as the Lord had said.

٢٣ وَهَذَا عَدَدُ رُؤُوسِ ٱلْمُتَجَرِّدِينَ لِلْقِتَالِ ٱلَّذِينَ جَاءُوا إِلَى دَاوُدَ إِلَى حَبْرُونَ لِيُحَوِّلُوا مَمْلَكَةَ شَاوُلَ إِلَيْهِ حَسَبَ قَوْلِ ٱلرَّبِّ.

24 There were six thousand, eight hundred spearmen of the children of Judah, armed for war;

٢٤ بَنُو يَهُوذَا حَامِلُو ٱلْأَتْرَاسِ وَٱلرِّمَاحِ سِتَّةُ آلَافٍ وَثَمَانِ مِئَةِ مُتَجَرِّدٍ لِلْقِتَالِ.

25 Seven thousand, one hundred of the children of Simeon, great men of war;

٢٥ مِنْ بَنِي شِمْعُونَ جَبَابِرَةُ بَأْسٍ فِي ٱلْحَرْبِ سَبْعَةُ آلَافٍ وَمِئَةٌ.

26 Of the children of Levi, four thousand, six hundred.

٢٦ مِنْ بَنِي لَاوِي أَرْبَعَةُ آلَافٍ وَسِتُّ مِئَةٍ.

27 And Jehoiada, chief of the family of Aaron, and with him three thousand, seven hundred men;

٢٧ وَيَهُويَادَاعُ رَئِيسُ ٱلْهَارُونِيِّينَ وَمَعَهُ ثَلَاثَةُ آلَافٍ وَسَبْعُ مِئَةٍ.

28 And Zadok, a young man, great and strong in war, with twenty-two captains from his father's people.

٢٨ وَصَادُوقُ غُلَامٌ جَبَّارُ بَأْسٍ وَبَيْتُ أَبِيهِ ٱثْنَانِ وَعِشْرُونَ قَائِدًا.

29 And of the children of Benjamin, the brothers of Saul, three thousand; for up to that time the greater part of them had been true to Saul.

٢٩ وَمِنْ بَنِي بَنْيَامِينَ إِخْوَةُ شَاوُلَ ثَلَاثَةُ آلَافٍ، وَإِلَى هُنَا كَانَ أَكْثَرُهُمْ يَحْرُسُونَ حِرَاسَةَ بَيْتِ شَاوُلَ.

30 And of the children of Ephraim, twenty thousand, eight hundred great men of war, men of great name in their families.

٣٠ وَمِنْ بَنِي أَفْرَايِمَ عِشْرُونَ أَلْفًا وَثَمَانُ مِئَةٍ، جَبَابِرَةُ بَأْسٍ وَذَوُو ٱسْمٍ فِي بُيُوتِ آبَائِهِمْ.

31 And from the half-tribe of Manasseh, eighteen thousand, listed by name, came to make David king.

٣١ وَمِنْ نِصْفِ سِبْطِ مَنَسَّى ثَمَانِيَةَ عَشَرَ أَلْفًا قَدْ تَعَيَّنُوا بِأَسْمَائِهِمْ لِكَيْ يَأْتُوا وَيُمَلِّكُوا دَاوُدَ.

32 And of the children of Issachar, there were two hundred chiefs, men who had expert knowledge of the times and what it was best for Israel to do, and all their brothers were under their orders.

٣٢ وَمِنْ بَنِي يَسَّاكَرَ ٱلْخَبِيرِينَ بِٱلْأَوْقَاتِ لِمَعْرِفَةِ مَا يَعْمَلُ إِسْرَائِيلُ، رُؤُوسُهُمْ مِئَتَانِ، وَكُلُّ إِخْوَتِهِمْ تَحْتَ أَمْرِهِمْ.

33 Of Zebulun, there were fifty thousand men, who went out with the army, expert in ordering the fight, to give help with all sorts of arms; true-hearted men.

٣٣ مِنْ زَبُولُونَ ٱلْخَارِجُونَ لِلْقِتَالِ ٱلْمُصْطَفُّونَ لِلْحَرْبِ بِجَمِيعِ أَدَوَاتِ ٱلْحَرْبِ خَمْسُونَ أَلْفًا، وَلِلِٱصْطِفَافِ مِنْ دُونِ خِلَافٍ.

34 And of Naphtali, a thousand captains with thirty-seven thousand spearmen.

٣٤ وَمِنْ نَفْتَالِي أَلْفُ رَئِيسٍ وَمَعَهُمْ سَبْعَةٌ وَثَلَاثُونَ أَلْفًا بِٱلْأَتْرَاسِ وَٱلرِّمَاحِ.

35 And of the Danites, twenty-eight thousand, six hundred, expert in ordering the fight.

٣٥ وَمِنَ ٱلدَّانِيِّينَ مُصْطَفُّونَ لِلْحَرْبِ ثَمَانِيَةٌ وَعِشْرُونَ أَلْفًا وَسِتُّ مِئَةٍ.

36 And of Asher, forty thousand who went out with the army, expert in ordering the fight.

٣٦ وَمِنْ أَشِيرَ ٱلْخَارِجُونَ لِلْجَيْشِ لِأَجْلِ ٱلِٱصْطِفَافِ لِلْحَرْبِ أَرْبَعُونَ أَلْفًا.

37 From the other side of Jordan, there were a hundred and twenty thousand of the Reubenites and the Gadites and the men of the half-tribe of Manasseh, armed with every sort of instrument of war.

٣٧ وَمِنْ عَبْرِ ٱلْأُرْدُنِّ مِنَ ٱلرَّأُوبَيْنِيِّينَ وَٱلْجَادِيِّينَ وَنِصْفِ سِبْطِ مَنَسَّى بِجَمِيعِ أَدَوَاتِ جَيْشِ ٱلْحَرْبِ مِئَةٌ وَعِشْرُونَ أَلْفًا.

38 All these men of war, expert in ordering the fight, came to Hebron with the full purpose of making David king over all Israel; and all the rest of Israel were united in their desire to make David king.

٣٨ كُلُّ هَؤُلَاءِ رِجَالُ حَرْبٍ يَصْطَفُّونَ صُفُوفًا، أَتَوْا بِقَلْبٍ تَامٍّ إِلَى حَبْرُونَ لِيُمَلِّكُوا دَاوُدَ عَلَى كُلِّ إِسْرَائِيلَ. وَكَذَلِكَ كُلُّ بَقِيَّةِ إِسْرَائِيلَ بِقَلْبٍ وَاحِدٍ لِتَمْلِيكِ دَاوُدَ.

39 For three days they were there with David, feasting at his table, for their brothers had made ready food for them.

٣٩ وَكَانُوا هُنَاكَ مَعَ دَاوُدَ ثَلَاثَةَ أَيَّامٍ يَأْكُلُونَ وَيَشْرَبُونَ لِأَنَّ إِخْوَتَهُمْ أَعَدُّوا لَهُمْ.

40 And those who were near, as far as Issachar and Zebulun and Naphtali, came with food on asses and camels and mules and oxen, with meal for food and cakes of figs and masses of grapes, and wine and oil and oxen and sheep in great numbers, for there was joy in Israel.

٤٠ وَكَذَلِكَ ٱلْقَرِيبُونَ مِنْهُمْ حَتَّى يَسَّاكَرَ وَزَبُولُونَ وَنَفْتَالِي، كَانُوا يَأْتُونَ بِخُبْزٍ عَلَى ٱلْحَمِيرِ وَٱلْجِمَالِ وَٱلْبِغَالِ وَٱلْبَقَرِ، وَبِطَعَامٍ مِنْ دَقِيقٍ وَتِينٍ وَزَبِيبٍ وَخَمْرٍ وَزَيْتٍ وَبَقَرٍ وَغَنَمٍ بِكَثْرَةٍ، لِأَنَّهُ كَانَ فَرَحٌ فِي إِسْرَائِيلَ.
