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.
Hi quoque venerunt ad David in Siceleg, cum adhuc fugeret Saul filium Cis, qui erant fortissimi et egregii pugnatores,
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.
tendentes arcum, et utraque manu fundis saxa iacientes, et dirigentes sagittas: de fratribus Saul ex Beniamin.
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;
Princeps Ahiecer, et Ioas filii Samaa Gabaathites, et Iaziel, et Phallet filii Azmoth, et Baracha, et Iehu Anathotites.
4 And Ishmaiah the Gibeonite, a great man among the thirty, and their chief; and Jeremiah and Jehaziel and Johanan and Jozabad the Gederathite;
Samaias quoque Gabaonites fortissimus inter triginta et super triginta. Ieremias, et Ieheziel, et Iohanan, et Iezabad Gaderothites,
5 Eluzai and Jerimoth and Bealiah and Shemariah and Shephatiah the Haruphite;
et Eluzai et Ierimuth, et Baalia, et Samaria, et Saphatia Haruphites.
6 Elkanah and Isshiah and Azarel and Joezer and Jashobeam, the Korahites;
Elcana, et Iesia, et Azareel, et Ioezer, et Iesbaam de Carehim:
7 And Joelah and Zebadiah, the sons of Jeroham of Gedor.
Ioela quoque, et Zabadia filii Ieroham de 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;
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 capreæ in montibus:
9 Ezer their chief, Obadiah the second, Eliab the third,
Ezer princeps, Obdias secundus, Eliab tertius,
10 Mishmannah the fourth, Jeremiah the fifth,
Masmana quartus, Ieremias quintus,
11 Attai the sixth, Eliel the seventh,
Ethi sextus, Eliel septimus,
12 Johanan the eighth, Elzabad the ninth,
Iohanan octavus, Elzebad nonus,
13 Jeremiah the tenth, Machbannai the eleventh.
Ieremias decimus, Machbanai undecimus.
14 These Gadites were captains of the army; the least of them was captain over a hundred men, and the greatest over a thousand.
Hi de filiis Gad principes exercitus: novissimus centum militibus præerat, et maximus, mille.
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.
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 And some of the children of Benjamin and Judah came to David in his strong place.
Venerunt autem et de Beniamin, et de Iuda ad præsidium, in quo morabatur David.
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.
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 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.
Spiritus vero induit Amasai 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 turmæ.
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.
Porro de Manasse transfugerunt ad David, quando veniebat cum Philisthiim adversus 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 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.
Quando igitur reversus est in Siceleg, transfugerunt ad eum de Manasse, Ednas, et Iozabad, et Iedihel, et Michael, et Ednas, et Iozabad, et Eliu, et Salathi, principes millium in Manasse.
21 And they gave David help against the armed bands, for they were all great men of war, and captains in the army.
Hi præbuerunt auxilium David adversus latrunculos: omnes enim erant viri fortissimi, et facti sunt principes in exercitu.
22 And from day to day more supporters came to David, till 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 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.
Iste quoque est numerus principum exercitus, qui venerunt ad David, cum esset in Hebron, ut transferrent regnum Saul ad eum, iuxta verbum Domini.
24 There were six thousand, eight hundred spearmen of the children of Judah, armed for war;
Filii Iuda portantes clypeum et hastam, sex millia octingenti expediti ad prælium.
25 Seven thousand, one hundred of the children of Simeon, great men of war;
De filiis Simeon virorum fortissimorum ad pugnandum, septem millia centum.
26 Of the children of Levi, four thousand, six hundred.
De filiis Levi, quattuor millia sexcenti.
27 And Jehoiada, chief of the family of Aaron, and with him three thousand, seven hundred men;
Ioioda quoque princeps de stirpe Aaron, et cum eo tria millia septingenti.
28 And Zadok, a young man, great and strong in war, with twenty-two captains from his father's people.
Sadoc etiam puer egregiæ indolis, et domus patris eius, principes viginti duo.
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.
De filiis autem Beniamin fratribus Saul, tria millia: magna enim pars eorum adhuc sequebatur domum Saul.
30 And of the children of Ephraim, twenty thousand, eight hundred great men of war, men of great name in their families.
Porro de filiis Ephraim viginti millia octingenti, fortissimi robore, viri nominati in cognationibus suis.
31 And from the half-tribe of Manasseh, eighteen thousand, listed by name, came to make David king.
Et ex dimidia tribu Manasse, decem et octo millia, singuli per nomina sua venerunt ut constituerent regem David.
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.
De filiis quoque Issachar viri eruditi, qui noverant singula tempora ad præcipiendum quid facere deberet Israel, principes ducenti: omnis autem reliqua tribus eorum consilium sequebatur.
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.
Porro de Zabulon qui egrediebantur ad prælium, et stabant in acie instructi armis bellicis, quinquaginta millia venerunt in auxilium, non in corde duplici.
34 And of Naphtali, a thousand captains with thirty-seven thousand spearmen.
Et de Nephthali, principes mille: et cum eis instructi clypeo et hasta, triginta et septem millia.
35 And of the Danites, twenty-eight thousand, six hundred, expert in ordering the fight.
De Dan etiam præparati ad prælium, viginti octo millia sexcenti.
36 And of Asher, forty thousand who went out with the army, expert in ordering the fight.
Et de Aser egredientes ad pugnam, et in acie provocantes, quadraginta millia.
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.
Trans Iordanem autem de filiis Ruben, et de Gad, et dimidia parte tribus Manasse instructi armis bellicis, centum viginti millia.
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.
Omnes isti viri bellatores expediti ad pugnandum, corde perfecto venerunt in Hebron, ut constituerent regem David super universum Israel: sed et omnes reliqui ex Israel, uno corde erant, ut rex fieret David.
39 For three days they were there with David, feasting at his table, for their brothers had made ready food for them.
Fueruntque ibi apud David tribus diebus comedentes et bibentes. Præparaverant enim eis fratres sui.
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.
Sed et qui iuxta eos erant, usque ad Issachar, et Zabulon, et Nephthali, afferebant panes in asinis, et camelis, et mulis, et bobus ad vescendum: farinam, palathas, uvam passam, vinum, oleum, boves, arietes ad omnem copiam. Gaudium quippe erat in Israel.
