< 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.
Aya nĩo andũ arĩa mookire kũrĩ Daudi arĩ kũu Zikilagi, hĩndĩ ĩrĩa aaingatĩtwo akehera maitho-inĩ ma Saũlũ mũrũ wa Kishu (maarĩ amwe a njamba cia ita iria ciamũteithirie mbaara-inĩ;
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.
Nao maakuuaga mota na nĩmooĩ gũikia mĩguĩ, na gũikia mahiga na kĩgũtha, na guoko kwa ũrĩo kana kwa ũmotho; maarĩ a mbarĩ ĩmwe na Saũlũ kuuma mũhĩrĩga wa Benjamini), nao maarĩ:
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;

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

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;
Agadi amwe nĩmagarũrũkire magĩcooka mwena wa Daudi o kũu werũ-inĩ kĩĩhitho-inĩ gĩake. Maarĩ njamba cia ita irĩ ũrũme ciehaarĩirie gũthiĩ mbaara, na nĩmooĩ kũhũthĩra ngo na itimũ. Mothiũ mao maahaanaga ta mothiũ ma mĩrũũthi, na maarĩ ihenya ta thwariga irĩ irĩma-inĩ.

14 These Gadites were captains of the army; the least of them was captain over a hundred men, and the greatest over a thousand.
Agadi acio maarĩ anene a mbũtũ cia ita; ũrĩa warĩ mũnini mũno wao aarũaga mbaara ĩrĩa ĩngĩarũirwo nĩ andũ igana, nake ũrĩa warĩ mũnene mũno wao aarũaga mbaara ĩrĩa ĩngĩarũirwo nĩ andũ ngiri ĩmwe.
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.
Nĩo maaringire Rũũĩ rwa Jorodani mweri wa mbere rĩrĩa rwaiyũrĩte nginya rũkoina hũgũrũrũ ciaruo ciothe, na makĩingatithia andũ arĩa othe maaikaraga cianda-inĩ cia mwena wa irathĩro na mwena wa ithũĩro.
16 And some of the children of Benjamin and Judah came to David in his strong place.
Andũ amwe a kuuma Benjamini na angĩ a kuuma Juda o nao magĩũka kũrĩ Daudi kũu kĩĩhitho-inĩ gĩake.
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.
Daudi agĩthiĩ kũmatũnga, akĩmeera atĩrĩ, “Angĩkorwo mũrooka kũrĩ niĩ na thayũ kũndeithia-rĩ, nĩndĩhaarĩirie kũmwamũkĩra tũtuĩke kĩndũ kĩmwe; no angĩkorwo mũũkĩte kũngunyanĩra kũrĩ thũ ciakwa o rĩrĩa itarenda haaro-rĩ, Ngai wa maithe maitũ arorora ũndũ ũcio na amũtuĩre ciira.”
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.
Hĩndĩ ĩyo Roho agĩikũrũkĩra Amasai, mũnene wa arĩa Mĩrongo Ĩtatũ, akiuga atĩrĩ: “Tũrĩ aku, wee Daudi! Tũrĩ hamwe nawe, wee mũrũ wa Jesii! Ũrogaacĩra, ũgaacĩre ki, na arĩa magũteithagia marogaacĩra, nĩgũkorwo Ngai waku nĩegũgũteithia.” Nĩ ũndũ ũcio Daudi akĩmaamũkĩra na akĩmatua atongoria a mbũtũ ciake cia gũtharĩkĩra thũ.
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.
Andũ amwe a Manase nĩmagarũrũkire magĩthiĩ mwena wa Daudi rĩrĩa aathiire na Afilisti kũhũũrana na Saũlũ. (Daudi na andũ ake matiateithirie Afilisti, tondũ thuutha wa kwaranĩria, aathani ao nĩmamũingatire. Maamwĩrire atĩrĩ, “Tũkaarĩha na mĩoyo iitũ angĩgatũtiganĩria acookerere mwathi wake Saũlũ.”)
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.
Hĩndĩ ĩrĩa Daudi aathiire Zikilagi, aya nĩo andũ a Manase arĩa maagarũrũkire magĩthiĩ mwena wake: Adina, na Jozabadu, na Jediaeli, na Mikaeli, na Jozabadu, na Elihu, na Zilethai, atongoria a ikundi cia ngiri kũu Manase.
21 And they gave David help against the armed bands, for they were all great men of war, and captains in the army.
Nĩmateithirie Daudi kuuma kũrĩ mbũtũ iria ciamũtharĩkĩire, nĩgũkorwo othe maarĩ njamba cia ita irĩ ũrũme, na maarĩ anene a ita ciake.
22 And from day to day more supporters came to David, till he had a great army like the army of God.
Mũthenya o mũthenya andũ nĩmookaga gũteithia Daudi, o nginya akĩgĩa na mbũtũ nene, o ta mbũtũ ya Ngai.
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.
