1 Chronicles 12
1 Also, these went to David at Ziklag, while he was still fleeing from Saul, the son of Kish. And they were very strong and distinguished fighters,
Magi e joma nobiro ir Daudi Ziklag kane Saulo wuod Kish oseriembe e nyime (jogi ne gin achiel kuom jolweny mane okonye e lweny;
2 bending the bow, and using either hand in casting stones with slings, and shooting arrows. From the brothers of Saul, out of Benjamin:
mane omanore gi atungʼ mikedogo, kendo neginyalo diro asere kata orujre gi badgi korachwich kata koracham, bende ne gin wede Saulo koa e oganda mar Benjamin):
3 the leader was Ahiezer, with Joash, sons of Shemaah from Gibeah, and Jeziel and Pelet, sons of Azmaveth, and Beracah and Jehu, from Anathoth.
Jogi ne gin: Ahiezer ma jatendgi gi Joash owadgi ma yawuot Shema ja-Gibea, kod Jeziel gi Pelet yawuot Azmaveth; Beraka gi Jehu jo-Anathoth,
4 Also, there was Ishmaiah, from Gibeon, the strongest among the thirty and over the thirty; Jeremiah, and Jahaziel, and Johanan, and Jozabad, from Gederah;
gi Ishmaya ja-Gibeon, ngʼat maratego kuom thuondi piero adek, ma bende ne en jatelo mar thuondi piero adek, kod Jeremia gi Jahaziel gi Johanan gi Jozabad ma ja-Gedera,
5 and Eluzai, and Jerimoth, and Bealiah, and Shemariah, and Shephatiah, the Haruphites;
gi Eluzai gi Jerimoth gi Bealia gi Shemaria gi Shefatia ja-Haruf;
6 Elkanah, and Isshiah, and Azarel, and Joezer, and Jashobeam, from Carehim;
kod Elkana gi Ishia gi Azarel gi Joezer kod Jashobeam ja-Kora,
7 and also Joelah and Zebadiah, sons of Jeroham, from Gedor.
kod Joela gi Zebadia yawuot Jeroham ja-Gedor.
8 Then too, from Gad, there went over to David, when he was hiding in the desert, very robust men, who were excellent fighters, taking hold of shield and spear; their faces were like the faces of a lion, and they were swift like the roe deer upon the mountains.
Joka Gad mamoko bende noluwo Daudi e kar pondo mare e thim. Ne gin thuondi mager kendo negiikore ne lweny kendo neginyalo kedo gi tongʼ kod kuot. Wengegi ne ger ka wenge sibuoche kendo tiendgi ne yot ka tiend mwanda maringo e got.
9 Ezer was the leader, Obadiah the second, Eliab the third,
Ezer ne jatendgi, Obadia ne jalupne e telo, Eliab ne mar adek,
10 Mishmannah the fourth, Jeremiah the fifth,
Mishmana ngʼat mar angʼwen, Jeremia mar abich,
11 Attai the sixth, Eliel the seventh,
Atai mar auchiel, Eliel mar abiriyo,
12 Johanan the eighth, Elzabad the ninth,
Johanan mar aboro, Elzabad mar ochiko,
13 Jeremiah the tenth, Machbannai the eleventh.
Jeremia mar apar, to Makbanai mar apar gachiel.
14 These were from the sons of Gad, leaders of the army. The least was in charge of one hundred soldiers, and the greatest was in charge of one thousand.
Joka Gad-gi ne gin jotend jolweny, ma ngʼat matin kuomgi ne ipimo gi ji mia achiel, to maduongʼ kuomgi to ne ipimo gi ji alufu achiel.
15 These are the ones who crossed over the Jordan in the first month, when it is accustomed to overflow its banks. And they put to flight all those who were staying in the valleys, to the eastern region and to the west.
Gin ema negingʼado aora Jordan e dwe mokwongo kane aora opongʼ moo ma gimiyo jogo mane odak e holo oringo matek kadhi wuok chiengʼ to moko podho chiengʼ.
16 Then some from Benjamin and from Judah also arrived at the stronghold where David was staying.
To joka Benjamin mamoko gi jo-Juda mamoko bende nobiro ir Daudi e kare mar pondo.
17 And David went out to meet them, and he said: “If you have arrived peacefully, so as to be a help to me, may my heart be joined to you; but if to betray me to my adversaries, though I have no iniquity in my hands, may the God of our fathers see and judge.”
Daudi nodhi moromo nigi kendo nowachonegi niya, “Ka ubiro ira gi kwe mondo ukonya, to aikora mondo ariwra kodu, to ka ubiro mondo undhoga ne wasika kata obedo ni lweta onge remo, to Nyasach kwerewa ema obed jangʼadnu bura.”
18 Truly, the Spirit clothed Amasai, the leader among the thirty, and he said: “O David, we are yours! O son of Jesse, we are for you! Peace, peace to you, and peace to your helpers. For your God helps you.” Therefore, David received them, and he appointed them as leaders of troops.
Eka Roho nolor kuom Amasai mane jatend thuondi piero adekgi kowacho niya, “Wan jogi, yaye Daudi! Wan kodi, yaye wuod Jesse! Lochi, bed jaloch kendo joma konyi bende olochi, nikech Nyasachi biro konyi.” Eka Daudi norwakogi ma oketogi jotelo mag jopecho.
19 Moreover, some from Manasseh crossed over to David, when he went forth with the Philistines against Saul, so that he might fight. But he did not fight with them. For the leaders of the Philistines, taking counsel, sent him back, saying, “To the peril of our own heads, he will return to his lord, Saul.”
Kane Daudi odhi Filistia mondo giked gi Saulo, jo-Manase moko noweyo Saulo moriwore gi Daudi. Daudi to gi joge ne ok okonyo jo-Filistia nimar ka jotendgi ne osewuoyo kendgi negiriembe kagiwacho niya, “Onyalo negowa ka dipo ni odok ir ruodhe Saulo.”
20 And so, when he returned to Ziklag, some fled over to him from Manasseh: Adnah, and Jozabad, and Jediael, and Michael, and Adnah, and Jozabad, and Elihu, and Zillethai, leaders of thousands in Manasseh.
Joka Manase mane odok ir Daudi koa ir Saulo mane odhi Ziklag ne gin: Adna, Jozabad, Jediael, Mikael, Jozabad, Elihu kod Zilethai mane jotend jolweny alufu achiel kuom joka Manase moro ka moro.
21 These offered assistance to David against the robbers. For all were very strong men, and they became leaders in the army.
Negikonyo Daudi kuom joma ne monje nikech giduto ne gin jolweny mathuondi, kendo ne gin jotelo mag lweny.
22 Then, too, some came to David throughout each day, in order to help him, until they became a great number, like the army of God.
Odiechiengʼ kodiechiengʼ ji ne medo biro ir Daudi mondo okonye, nyaka nobedo gi jolweny mangʼeny machalo gi jolweny mag Nyasaye.
23 Now this is the number of the leaders of the army who went to David when he was at Hebron, so that they might transfer the kingdom of Saul to him, in accord with the word of the Lord:
Magi e romb ji mane oikore ne kedo mane obiro ir Daudi Hebron mondo okaw pinyruodh Saulo mane omiye mana kaka Jehova Nyasaye nosewacho:
24 the sons of Judah, carrying shield and spear, six thousand eight hundred, equipped for battle;
joka Juda, mane otingʼo kuodi gi tonge ne gin ji alufu auchiel gi mia aboro mane oikore ne lweny;
25 from the sons of Simeon, very strong men for the fight, seven thousand one hundred;
joka Simeon ne gin ji alufu abiriyo gi mia achiel mano oikore ne lweny,
26 from the sons of Levi, four thousand six hundred;
joka Lawi ne gin ji alufu angʼwen gi mia auchiel,
27 as well as Jehoiada, a leader from the stock of Aaron, and with him three thousand seven hundred;
Jehoyada mane en jatelo mar anywola mar joka Harun ne nigi ji alufu adek gi mia abiriyo,
28 and then Zadok, a youth of distinguished qualities, and the house of his father, twenty-two leaders;
Zadok, ma en wuowi mathuon ne nigi jotelo piero ariyo gariyo moa e anywolane;
29 and from the sons of Benjamin, brothers of Saul, three thousand, for still a great part of them were following the house of Saul.
joka Benjamin, ma gin jo-dhoodgi Saulo ne gin ji alufu adek ma thothgi nosebedo koyie gi od Saulo nyaka kindeno;
30 Then from the sons of Ephraim, there were twenty thousand eight hundred, very strong and robust men, renowned among their kindred.
joka Efraim, ma gin jolweny mathuondi kendo mane rahuma e dhoodgi ne gin ji alufu piero ariyo gi mia aboro,
31 And out of the one half tribe of Manasseh, eighteen thousand, each by their names, went forth so that they might appoint David as king.
nus mar joka Manase mane owal mondo obi kendo giket Daudi ruoth ne gin ji alufu apar gaboro;
32 Also, from the sons of Issachar, there were learned men, who knew each of the times, in order to anticipate what Israel ought to do, two hundred leaders. And all the remainder of the tribe were following their counsel.
joka Isakar mane obedo gi rieko kuom gima timore kendo nongʼeyo gima jo-Israel onego otim ne nigi jotelo mia ariyo koriw gi anywolagi mane gitelonegi;
33 Then, from Zebulun, there were those who went forth to battle, and who were standing in a battle line, prepared with the weapons of warfare; these fifty thousand arrived to assist, without duplicity of heart.
joka Zebulun ma gin jolweny molony kendo moikore ni kedo gi gige lweny mopogore opogore mondo omi gikony Daudi gi chuny achiel ne gin ji alufu piero abich;
34 And from Naphtali, there were one thousand leaders; and with them were thirty-seven thousand, prepared with shield and spear.
joka Naftali ne nigi jotelo alufu achiel kaachiel gi ji alufu piero adek gabiriyo motingʼo kuode kod tonge;
35 And then from Dan, there were twenty-eight thousand six hundred, ready for battle.
joka Dan mane oikore ni kedo ne gin ji alufu piero ariyo gaboro gi mia auchiel;
36 And from Asher, there were forty thousand, going forth to fight, and summoned to the battle line.
joka Asher, ma gin jolweny molony kendo moikore ni kedo ne gin ji alufu piero angʼwen;
37 Then, across the Jordan, there were, from the sons of Reuben, and from Gad, and from the one half tribe of Manasseh, one hundred twenty thousand, prepared with the weapons of warfare.
kendo koa yo wuok chiengʼ mar Jordan, joka Reuben, joka Gad kod nus mar dhood joka Manase ma gin jogo moikore gi gige lweny mopogore opogore noromo ji alufu mia achiel gi piero ariyo.
38 All these men of war, equipped for the fight, went with a perfect heart to Hebron, so that they might appoint David as king over all of Israel. Then, too, all the remainder of Israel were of one heart, so that they might make David king.
Jolwenygi duto nochiwore mondo giti kode. Negibiro Hebron ka gingʼado e chunygi ni Daudi nyaka bed ruodh jo-Israel duto. To jo-Israel mamoko bende ne nigi paro achiel mondo Daudi oket ruoth.
39 And they were in that place with David for three days, eating and drinking. For their brothers had made preparations for them.
Jogi nobedo gi Daudi ndalo adek ka gichiemo kendo metho nikech jowetegi noseikonigi gik moko.
40 Moreover, those who were near to them, even as far as Issachar, and Zebulun, and Naphtali, were bringing, on donkeys and camels and mules and oxen, bread for their provisions, with grain, dried figs, dried grapes, wine, oil, and oxen and sheep, with all abundance. For indeed, there was joy in Israel.
Bende joma nokiewo kodgi koa ka joka Isakar, joka Zebulun nyaka ka jo-Naftali nobiro kotingʼo chiemo e punde, ngamia, pundane kod rwedhi. Negikelo gik moko mangʼeny machalo mogo, olembe mag ngʼowu gi mag mzabibu motwo mongʼin gi divai, gi mo, dhok kaachiel gi rombe nikech ne nitiere mor e Israel.
