< 1 Chronicles 12 >
1 Now these are those who came to David to Ziklag, while he was still kept from the presence of Saul the son of Kish; and they were among the mighty men, his helpers in war.
Følgende er de, der kom til David i Ziklag, medens han måtte holde sig skjult for Saul, Kisj's Søn. De hørte til Heltene, som hjalp til i Kampen;
2 They were armed with bows, and could use both the right hand and the left in slinging stones and in shooting arrows from the bow: they were of Saul's brothers of Benjamin.
de var væbnet med Bue og øvet i Stenkast og Pileskydning både med højre og venstre Hånd; de hørte til Sauls Brødre, Benjaminiterne.

8 Of the Gadites there separated themselves to David to the stronghold in the wilderness, mighty men of valor, men trained for war, that could handle shield and spear; whose faces were like the faces of lions, and they were as swift as the roes on the mountains;
Af Gaditerne slutfede nogle sig dygtige Krigere, øvede Krigsmænd, væbnet med Skjold og Spyd; de var som Løver at se på og rappe som Gazellerne på Bjergene.
9 Ezer the chief, Obadiah the second, Eliab the third,
Deres Overhoved var Ezer, Obadja den anden, Eliab den tredje,

14 These of the sons of Gad were captains of the army: he who was least was equal to one hundred, and the greatest to one thousand.
De var Anførere blandt Gaditerne; den mindste af dem tog det op med hundrede, den største med tusind.
15 These are those who went over the Jordan in the first month, when it had overflowed all its banks; and they put to flight all them of the valleys, both toward the east, and toward the west.
Det var dem, der gik over Jordan i den første Måned, engang den overalt var gået over sine Bredder, og slog alle Dalboerne på Flugt både mod Øst og Vest.
16 There came of the people of Benjamin and Judah to the stronghold to David.
Engang kom nogle Benjaminiter og Judæere til David i Klippeborgen;
17 David went out to meet them, and answered them, "If you have come peaceably to me to help me, my heart shall be knit to you; but if you have come to betray me to my adversaries, since there is no wrong in my hands, may the God of our fathers look thereon, and rebuke it."
David gik ud til dem, tog til Orde og sagde: "Hvis I kommer til mig i fredelig Hensigt, for at hjælpe mig, er jeg af Hjertet rede til at gøre fælles Sag med eder; men er det for at forråde mig til mine Fjender, skønt der ikke er Uret i mine Hænder, da se vore Fædres Gud til og straffe det!"
18 Then the Spirit came on Amasai, who was chief of the Thirty, and he said, "We are yours, David, and on your side, you son of Jesse: peace, peace be to you, and peace be to your helpers; for your God helps you." Then David received them, and made them captains of the band.
Så iførte Ånden sig Amasaj, de tredives Anfører, og han sagde: "For dig, David, og med dig, Isajs Søn! Fred, Fred være med dig, og Fred med dine Hjælpere, thi dig hjælper din Gud!" Da tog David imod dem og satte dem i Spidsen for Krigerskaren.
19 Of Manasseh also there fell away some to David, when he came with the Philistines against Saul to battle; but they did not help them; for the lords of the Philistines sent him away after consultation, saying, "He will fall away to his master Saul to the jeopardy of our heads."
Af Manasse gik nogle over til David. Det var, dengang han sammen med Filisterne drog i Kamp mod Saul, uden at han dog blev dem til Hjælp, fordi Filisternes Fyrster efter at have holdt Rådslagning sendte ham bort, idet de sagde: "Det koster vore Hoveder, hvis han går over til sin Herre Saul!"
20 As he went to Ziklag, there fell to him of Manasseh, Adnah, and Jozabad, and Jediael, and Michael, and Jozabad, and Elihu, and Zillethai, captains of thousands who were of Manasseh.
Da han så drog til Ziklag, gik følgende Manassiter over til ham: Adna, Jozabad, Jediael, Mikael, Jozabad, Elibu og Zilletaj, der var Overhoveder for Slægter i Manasse;
21 They helped David against the band of rovers: for they were all mighty men of valor, and were captains in the army.
de hjalp siden David imod Strejfskarerne, thi de var alle dygtige Krigere og blev Førere i Hæren.
22 For from day to day men came to David to help him, until there was a great army, like the army of God.
Der kom nemlig daglig Folk til David for at hjælpe ham, så det til sidst blev en stor Hær, stor som Guds Hær.

38 All these being men of war, who could order the battle array, came with a perfect heart to Hebron, to make David king over all Israel: and all the rest also of Israel were of one heart to make David king.
Med helt Hjerte og rede til Kamp kom alle disse Krigere til Hebron for at gøre David til Konge over hele Israel; men også det øvrige Israel var endrægtigt med til at gøre David til Konge.
39 They were there with David three days, eating and drinking; for their brothers had made preparation for them.
De blev der hos David i tre Dage og spiste og drak, thi deres Brødre havde forsynet dem;
40 Moreover those who were near to them, as far as Issachar and Zebulun and Naphtali, brought bread on donkeys, and on camels, and on mules, and on oxen, food of meal, cakes of figs, and clusters of raisins, and wine, and oil, and cattle, and sheep in abundance: for there was joy in Israel.
